Selective REM Sleep Deprivation Improves Expectation-Related Placebo Analgesia.
PLoS ONE, 2015 The placebo effect is a neurobiological and psychophysiological process known to influence perceived pain relief. Optimization of placebo analgesia may contribute to the clinical efficacy and effectiveness of medication for acute and chronic pain ...

Dreaming and Insomnia: Link between Physiological REM Parameters and Mentation Characteristics
Brain Sciences, 2020 (1) Background: An unresolved phenomenon of insomnia disorder is a discrepancy between objectively measured sleep and subjective complaints. It has been shown that rapid eye movement (REM) sleep might be especially vulnerable to an altered perception ...

A medullary hub for controlling REM sleep and pontine waves
Nature Communications, 2023 Rapid-eye-movement (REM) sleep is a distinct behavioral state associated with vivid dreaming and memory processing. Phasic bursts of electrical activity, measurable as spike-like pontine (P)-waves, are a hallmark of REM sleep implicated in memory ...

Epilepsia, EarlyView.Abstract Objective Interictal electroencephalographic (EEG) activities are generally considered asymptomatic. Pulse wave amplitude drop (PWAD) is a marker of autonomic nervous system (ANS) reactivity linked to cardiovascular risk. Generalized paroxysmal fast activity (GPFA) is a major EEG pattern in different epileptic conditions.

Epileptic arousals: A neglected clinical entity
Epilepsia, EarlyView.Abstract Objective Epileptic arousals (EAs) are seizures characterized solely by arousal from sleep. EAs are unrecognized in current seizure classifications. Their subtle semiology and inconsistently detectable ictal activity in scalp electroencephalography (EEG) complicate differentiation from physiological arousals (PAs). This study characterizes EAs

Epilepsia, EarlyView.Abstract Theta oscillations (4–12 Hz) are a prominent network rhythm within hippocampal and parahippocampal structures. Driven by cholinergic and γ‐aminobutyric acidergic inputs originating from the medial septum, physiological theta gates network excitability to control spatial navigation, memory encoding, and sensorimotor integration during specific ...
