What I make up when I wake up: anti-experience views and narrative fabrication of dreams [PDF]
, 2013 I propose a narrative fabrication thesis of dream reports, according to which dream reports are often not accurate representations of experiences that occur during sleep.

Idiopathic rapid eye movement sleep behaviour disorder: a potential gateway to the development of disease-modifying treatments in neurodegenerative disorders [PDF]
, 2016 Idiopathic rapid eye movement (REM) sleep behavioural disorder (RBD) is classified as one of the REM parasomnias with clinical characteristics including unpleasant dreams, acting out of dreams, and loss of the typical muscle atonia during the REM phase ...

Complementary roles of slow-wave sleep and rapid eye movement sleep in emotional memory consolidation [PDF]
, 2014 Although rapid eye movement sleep (REM) is regularly implicated in emotional memory consolidation, the role of slow-wave sleep (SWS) in this process is largely uncharacterized.

Neurons in the Nucleus papilio contribute to the control of eye movements during REM sleep
Nature Communications, 2019 Rapid eye movement (REM) sleep is a sleep phase characterised by random eye movements for which the underlying motor commands are yet to be revealed. The authors describe that a cluster of medulla oblongata neurons in the Nucleus papiliocontributes to ...

In search of sleep biomarkers of Alzheimer's disease: K-Complexes do not discriminate between patients with mild cognitive impairment and healthy controls [PDF]
, 2017 The K-complex (KC) is one of the hallmarks of Non-Rapid Eye Movement (NREM) sleep. Recent observations point to a drastic decrease of spontaneous KCs in Alzheimer's disease (AD).

Cognition in rapid eye movement sleep behavior disorder
Frontiers in Neurology, 2012 Rapid eye movement (REM) sleep behavior disorder (RBD) is a parasomnia characterized by excessive muscle activity and undesirable motor events during REM sleep. RBD occurs in approximately 0.5% of the general population, with a higher prevalence in older

Striatal adenosine A2A receptor neurons control active-period sleep via parvalbumin neurons in external globus pallidus [PDF]
, 2017 Dysfunction of the striatum is frequently associated with sleep disturbances. However, its role in sleep-wake regulation has been paid little attention even though the striatum densely expresses adenosine A2A receptors (A2ARs), which are essential for ...

A continuum model for the dynamics of the phase transition from slow-wave sleep to REM sleep [PDF]
, 2010 Previous studies have shown that activated cortical states (awake and rapid eye-movement (REM) sleep), are associated with increased cholinergic input into the cerebral cortex.
