The Significance of Rapid-Eye-Movement Sleep for Regulating Emotions and Obtaining Long-term Memory
Humans spend a great deal of time sleeping and dreaming. While the benefits of good sleep hygiene are well-known, fewer appreciate the importance of dreaming. This paper investigates the necessity of rapid-eye-movement (REM) sleep (dreaming) by examining

Feasibility and usability of three consecutive nights with self‐applied, home polysomnography
Summary In‐laboratory polysomnography, the gold‐standard for diagnosing sleep disorders, is resource‐demanding and not conducive to multiple night evaluations. Ambulatory polysomnography, especially when self‐applied, could be a viable alternative. This study aimed to assess the feasibility and reliability of self‐applied polysomnography over three ...

Ageing‐related modification of sleep and breathing in orexin‐knockout narcoleptic mice
Summary Narcolepsy type‐1 (NT1) is a lifelong sleep disease, characterised by impairment of the orexinergic system, with a typical onset during adolescence and young adulthood. Since the wake–sleep cycle physiologically changes with ageing, this study aims to compare sleep patterns between orexin‐knockout (KO) and wild type (WT) control mice at ...

Characterisation of sleep apneas and respiratory circuitry in mice lacking CDKL5
Summary CDKL5 deficiency disorder is a rare genetic disease caused by mutations in the CDKL5 gene. Central apneas during wakefulness have been reported in patients with CDKL5 deficiency disorder. Studies on CDKL5‐knockout mice, a CDKL5 deficiency disorder model, reported sleep apneas, but it is still unclear whether these events are central (central ...
