Profiling the sleep architecture of ageing adults using a seven‐state continuous‐time Markov model

Journal of Sleep Research, Volume 34, Issue 2, April 2025.
Summary Sleep is a complex biological process regulated by networks of neurons and environmental factors. As one falls asleep, neurotransmitters from sleep–wake regulating neurones work in synergy to control the switching of different sleep states throughout the night. As sleep disorders or underlying neuropathology can manifest as irregular switching,

Napping during cognitive behavioural therapy for insomnia: Friends or foes?

Journal of Sleep Research, Volume 34, Issue 2, April 2025.
Summary Cognitive and Behavioural Therapy for Insomnia (CBT‐I) is the gold standard treatment for chronic insomnia, with one crucial step being the restriction of time spent in bed. This restriction often intensifies early afternoon sleepiness, leading to a natural gateway for a short recuperative nap, which might foster adherence to CBT‐I over time ...

The N-soliton solutions of the n-component generalized Sasa-Satsuma system: Riemann-Hilbert method

Nuclear Physics B
Using the Riemann-Hilbert method, the paper systematically investigates the n-component generalized Sasa-Satsuma system. By utilizing the Tu scheme, we systematically construct the n-component generalized Sasa-Satsuma integrable hierarchy, and obtain the

Existence of Solutions for Riemann-Liouville Fractional Boundary Value Problem

Abstract and Applied Analysis, 2014
By using the method of upper and lower solutions and fixed point theorems, the existence of solutions for a Riemann-Liouville fractional boundary value problem with the nonlinear term depending on fractional derivative of lower order is obtained under ...

Phenotypic Variability in Slow‐Wave Sleep in Depression: Associations With Clinical Profiles and Disorder Severity

Journal of Sleep Research, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Slow‐wave sleep (SWS; stage N3) is often reported as reduced in depression, yet variability across depressive phenotypes remains poorly characterised. This study aimed to determine whether N3 architecture—proportion, duration, and latency—identifies clinically distinct profiles in major depressive episode (MDE).

Prescription of Psychotropic Drugs for Chronic Insomnia in Primary Care

Journal of Sleep Research, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Insomnia is the most prevalent sleep disorder in adults, representing a major public health problem. Healthcare management in a specific area first requires analysing its current practices and issues. We conducted a retrospective observational study of over 100,000 patients from two large primary care databases in the public healthcare ...

Risks Associated With Benzodiazepine Long‐Term Use in Chronic Insomnia: A Systematic Review and (Network) Meta‐Analysis

Journal of Sleep Research, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT This systematic literature review evaluated the risks of using benzodiazepine medications for more than 3 months in adults with chronic insomnia. Chronic insomnia is defined as ongoing dissatisfaction with sleep quantity or quality, causing significant distress and impaired functioning during the day.

Lights On or Off? The Efficacy of Light Therapy as Add‐On to Cognitive Behavioural Therapy for Insomnia—A Pilot Study

Journal of Sleep Research, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Cognitive behavioural therapy for insomnia (CBT‐I) is recommended as first‐line treatment for insomnia disorder. However, around 25% of the patients do not respond to the treatment, and only 40% achieve full remission. The current study investigates the therapeutic potential of light therapy as an add‐on to CBT‐I.

Association Between Sleep Quality and Oxidative Stress in Postoperative Cardiovascular Patients—A Pilot Study

Journal of Sleep Research, EarlyView.
In 15 postoperative cardiac surgery patients, venous reactive oxygen species (ROS) measured by electron spin resonance (ESR) over 48 h showed no consistent circadian pattern. Higher ROS was associated with lower subjective sleep efficiency and more nocturnal awakenings, but not with other sleep measures.

Exploring the Association Between Complaints of Sensory Hypersensitivity and Sleep Disturbances After Acquired Brain Injury: A Cross‐Sectional Study

Journal of Sleep Research, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Sleep disturbances are prevalent after acquired brain injury and negatively affect quality of life. Sensory hypersensitivity may cause or exacerbate sleep disturbances, yet evidence on this relationship after acquired brain injury is lacking. The aim of this study was to investigate the hypothesised positive relationship between the severity ...
