Targeted dream incubation at sleep onset can influence later dream content in REM sleep: a pilot study [PDF]
Frontiers in SleepTargeted dream incubation (TDI) is a highly effective method for eliciting hypnagogic dreams related to specific topics through the presentation of verbal prompts and serial awakenings at sleep onset.

REM sleep obstructive sleep apnoea [PDF]
European Respiratory ReviewObstructive sleep apnoea (OSA) can occur in both rapid eye movement (REM) and non-REM sleep or be limited to REM sleep, when the upper airway is most prone to collapse due to REM sleep atonia.

The Sentinel Sleep Theory: Unweaving the biological function of REM sleep [PDF]
Sleep Medicine: XThe biological function of Rapid Eye Movement (REM) sleep remains one of neuroscience’s great mysteries. In this theoretical research paper, I present the evolutionary theory that explains why REM sleep exists.

An Asymmetrical Hypothesis for the NREM-REM Sleep Alternation—What Is the NREM-REM Cycle?
Frontiers in Neuroscience, 2021 Since the discovery of rapid eye movement (REM) sleep (Aserinsky and Kleitman, 1953), sleep has been described as a succession of cycles of non-REM (NREM) and REM sleep episodes.

A probabilistic model for the ultradian timing of REM sleep in mice.
PLoS Computational Biology, 2021 A salient feature of mammalian sleep is the alternation between rapid eye movement (REM) and non-REM (NREM) sleep. However, how these two sleep stages influence each other and thereby regulate the timing of REM sleep episodes is still largely unresolved.

Role of corticosterone on sleep homeostasis induced by REM sleep deprivation in rats. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2013 Sleep is regulated by humoral and homeostatic processes. If on one hand chronic elevation of stress hormones impair sleep, on the other hand, rapid eye movement (REM) sleep deprivation induces elevation of glucocorticoids and time of REM sleep during the

Methods for REM Sleep Density Analysis: A Scoping Review
Clocks & Sleep, 2023 Rapid eye movements (REM) sleep density is the parameter proposed to explain the variability in the amount of eye movements during REM sleep. Alterations in REM sleep density have been proposed as a screening criterion for individuals with depression and
