Biochemical pharmacology of paradoxical sleep. [PDF]

open access: yesBritish Journal of Clinical Pharmacology, 1983
The role of noradrenergic cells in the regulation of paradoxical sleep is still controversial, and experimental data have given rise to contradictory interpretations. Early investigations focused primarily on chemical neurotransmissions. However, the process of information transmission between cells involves many other factors, and the cell surface is ...

Sex Hormones and the Risk of Nasal Polyps: A Two‐Sample Mendelian Randomization Study

open access: yesWorld Journal of Otorhinolaryngology - Head and Neck Surgery, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Objective The pathophysiological roles of sex hormones in airway inflammation have drawn much attention recently. We aimed to explore the causal effect of sex hormones on chronic rhinosinusitis (CRS) and nasal polyps (NP) via a Mendelian randomization (MR) study.

Change the world farm by farm: The moral care of audit and the paradox of animal welfare inspection in Europe Changer le monde, ferme par ferme : le soin moral de l'audit et le paradoxe des contrôles du bien‐être animal en Europe

open access: yesJournal of the Royal Anthropological Institute, EarlyView.
In European animal welfare inspection on farms and at slaughter, inspectors encounter moral challenges that reveal the paradox at the heart of animal welfare. Against the harsh realities of industrial agriculture, not only are their idealized notions of animal wellbeing unrealizable, but inspectors are instrumental in perpetuating standards of welfare ...

Sleep Spindles Characteristics in Insomnia Sufferers and Their Relationship with Sleep Misperception

open access: yesNeural Plasticity, 2016
Cortical hyperarousal is higher in insomnia sufferers (INS) than in good sleepers (GS) and could be related to an alteration in sleep protection mechanisms, like reduced density or altered characteristics in sleep spindles. The deficient sleep protection

The hypocretins (orexins) mediate the “phasic” components of REM sleep: A new hypothesis

open access: yesSleep Science, 2014
In 1998, a group of phenotypically distinct neurons were discovered in the postero-lateral hypothalamus which contained the neuropeptides hypocretin 1 and hypocretin 2 (also called orexin A and orexin B), which are excitatory neuromodulators ...
