Manipulating sleep spindles - expanding views on sleep, memory, and disease. [PDF]
, 2013 Sleep spindles are distinctive electroencephalographic (EEG) oscillations emerging during non-rapid-eye-movement sleep (NREMS) that have been implicated in multiple brain functions, including sleep quality, sensory gating, learning, and memory.

Severe Central Sleep Apnea/Hypopnea Syndrome Mimicking Rapid Eye Movement Sleep Behavior Disorder [PDF]
Sleep Medicine Research, 2015 Rapid eye movement sleep behavior disorder (RBD) is a sleep disorder characterized by loss of muscle atonia during rapid eye movement (REM) sleep associated with dream enactment. However, these complex behaviors can also occur in other sleep disorders, a

Management of rapid eye movement sleep behavior disorder in patients with Parkinson's disease [PDF]
, 2016 Among all of the devastating effects that Parkinson’s disease (PD) has on an individual, sleep dysfunction is one that can have a profound effect on the entire family of the patient. The most potentially destructive of these sleep syndromes being that of

Optogenetic activation of cholinergic neurons in the PPT or LDT induces REM sleep [PDF]
, 2014 Rapid eye movement (REM) sleep is an important component of the natural sleep/wake cycle, yet the mechanisms that regulate REM sleep remain incompletely understood.

A Fast-Slow Analysis of the Dynamics of REM Sleep
, 2012 Waking and sleep states are regulated by the coordinated activity of a number of neuronal population in the brainstem and hypothalamus whose synaptic interactions compose a sleep-wake regulatory network.

Prevalence of obstructive sleep apnoea in REM behaviour disorder:response to continuous positive airway pressure therapy [PDF]
, 2017 Objectives: Rapid eye movement behaviour disorder (RBD) is a parasomnia in which there is loss of muscle atonia during rapid eye movement (REM) sleep, resulting in dream enactment.

Recognition of Sleep Dependent Memory Consolidation with Multi-modal Sensor Data [PDF]
, 2013 This paper presents the possibility of recognizing sleep dependent memory consolidation using multi-modal sensor data. We collected visual discrimination task (VDT) performance before and after sleep at laboratory, hospital and home for N=24 participants

Mathematical Phase Model of Neural Populations Interaction in Modulation of REM/NREM Sleep
Mathematical Modelling and Analysis, 2016 Aim of the present study is to compare the synchronization of the classical Kuramoto system and the reaction - diffusion space time Landau - Ginzburg model, in order to describe the alternation of REM (rapid eye movement) and NREM (non-rapid eye movement)

Electroencephalogram paroxysmal theta characterizes cataplexy in mice and children [PDF]
, 2017 Astute control of brain activity states is critical for adaptive behaviours and survival. In mammals and birds, electroencephalographic recordings reveal alternating states of wakefulness, slow wave sleep and paradoxical sleep (or rapid eye movement ...
