A prospective randomized crossover trial investigating melatonin versus sleep deprivation for sleep induction in nap electroencephalography

Epilepsia Open, EarlyView.
Abstract Objective Electroencephalography (EEG) plays a fundamental role in the diagnosis and classification of epilepsy, and inducing sleep during EEG can improve patient cooperation and enhance the detection of epileptiform activity. Despite its importance, there is currently no standardized approach for sleep induction in pediatric EEG recordings ...

Polysomnographic Features of Sleep Disturbances and REM Sleep Behavior Disorder in the Unilateral 6-OHDA Lesioned Hemiparkinsonian Rat

Parkinson's Disease, 2014
Sleep pattern disruption, specifically REM sleep behavior disorder (RBD), is a major nonmotor cause of disability in PD. Understanding the pathophysiology of these sleep pattern disturbances is critical to find effective treatments.

The sleep cycle: a mathematical analysis from a global workspace perspective [PDF]

, 2005
Dretske's technique of invoking necessary conditions from information theory to describe mental process can be used to derive a version of Hobson's AIM treatment of the sleep/wake cycle from a mathematical formulation of Baars' Global Workspace model of ...

Activation of the motor cortex during phasic rapid eye movement sleep [PDF]

, 2016
When dreaming during rapid eye movement (REM) sleep, we can perform complex motor behaviors while remaining motionless. How the motor cortex behaves during this state remains unknown.

Brain atrophy in Parkinson's disease with polysomnography-confirmed REM sleep behavior disorder.

Sleep, 2019
We aimed to investigate cortical and subcortical brain alterations in people with Parkinson's disease with polysomnography-confirmed rapid eye movement (REM) sleep behavior disorder (RBD).

Clock gene dysregulation in epilepsy: A systematic review

Epilepsia Open, EarlyView.
Abstract Objective Epileptic seizures show a rhythmic pattern, being more frequent at particular times of the day (e.g., only occurring during sleep), suggesting a role of the circadian rhythm. Clock genes regulate the circadian rhythm and might be involved in the pathophysiology of epilepsy.

Motor–Behavioral Phenotypes in the RBD-PD Continuum: Neurophysiological Mechanisms and Rehabilitative Implications

Applied Sciences
REM sleep behavior disorder (RBD) represents a prodromal manifestation of Parkinson’s disease (PD), reflecting the breakdown of inhibitory networks extending from the brainstem to the cortex.

Smartphone motor testing to distinguish idiopathic REM sleep behavior disorder, controls, and PD

Neurology, 2018
Objective We sought to identify motor features that would allow the delineation of individuals with sleep study-confirmed idiopathic REM sleep behavior disorder (iRBD) from controls and Parkinson disease (PD) using a customized smartphone application ...

Areas of research priorities in epilepsy: A position paper of the European Reference Network for Rare and Complex Epilepsies, EpiCARE

Epilepsia Open, EarlyView.
Abstract Objective To define and articulate research priorities in epilepsy identified by the European Reference Network for Rare and Complex Epilepsies (ERN EpiCARE), addressing key unmet needs across the spectrum of rare and complex epilepsies. Methods This position paper was developed through a structured collaborative process involving patient ...
