The impact of sleep quality on cognitive functioning in Parkinson's disease [PDF]
In healthy individuals and those with insomnia, poor sleep quality is associated with decrements in performance on tests of cognition, especially executive function. Sleep disturbances and cognitive deficits are both prevalent in Parkinson's disease (PD).

Renin–angiotensin system gene polymorphisms among Saudi patients with coronary artery disease [PDF]
BACKGROUND: Idiopathic REM sleep behavior disorder is a prodromal stage of Parkinson's disease and dementia with Lewy bodies. Hyposmia, reduced dopamine transporter binding, and expression of the brain metabolic PD-related pattern were each associated ...

Melatonin for rapid eye movement sleep behavior disorder in Parkinson's disease : a randomised controlled trial [PDF]
Background Melatonin may reduce REM-sleep behavior disorder (RBD) symptoms in Parkinson's disease (PD), though robust clinical trials are lacking. Objective To assess the efficacy of prolonged-release (PR) melatonin for RBD in PD.

Severe Central Sleep Apnea/Hypopnea Syndrome Mimicking Rapid Eye Movement Sleep Behavior Disorder [PDF]
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

Altered functional connectivity in lesional peduncular hallucinosis with REM sleep behavior disorder [PDF]
Brainstem lesions causing peduncular hallucinosis (PH) produce vivid visual hallucinations occasionally accompanied by sleep disorders. Overlapping brainstem regions modulate visual pathways and REM sleep functions via gating of thalamocortical networks.
