CIRCADIAN RHYTHM SLEEP DISORDERS [PDF]
Pediatric Clinics of North America, 2004 This article begins with a review of the major central nervous system functional systems that allow for optimal alertness during the waking day, and the rapid initiation and good maintenance of sleep at night. Subsequent sections discuss each of the 6 primary circadian rhythm sleep disorders.

Circadian Rhythm Sleep Disorders
Clinics in Chest Medicine, 2010Because there is insufficient cellular energy for organisms to perform their functions at the same constant rate and at the same time, all biologic processes show rhythmicity, each with its own unique frequency, amplitude, and phase. Optimal sleep and wakefulness requires proper timing and alignment of desired sleep-wake schedules and circadian rhythm ...

Circadian Rhythm Sleep Disorders
Primary Care: Clinics in Office Practice, 2005Individuals who have circadian rhythm sleep disorders present with symptoms of insomnia or excessive sleepiness and complain of an inability to sleep at their desired time. Although the primary etiology of these disorders is a misalignment between the endogenous circadian clock and the external environment, social and behavioral factors can also play ...

Circadian Rhythm Sleep Disorders
Chest, 2006Humans exhibit endogenous circadian rhythms that are regulated by the master circadian clock of the body, the suprachiasmatic nucleus. These endogenous circadian rhythms are aligned to the outside world by social and environmental cues. Circadian rhythm sleep disorders (CRSD) occur when there is an alteration of the internal timing mechanism or a ...

Disorders of sleep and circadian rhythms
2018Sleep is fundamental to the survival of humans. However, knowledge regarding the role of sleep and its regulation is poorly understood. Genetics in flies, mice, and humans has led to a detailed understanding of some aspects of circadian regulation. Sleep homeostasis (the effect of increasing periods of wakefulness on our sleep propensity) is largely ...

Circadian rhythms and disorders of the timing of sleep
The Lancet, 2022The daily alternation between sleep and wakefulness is one of the most dominant features of our lives and is a manifestation of the intrinsic 24 h rhythmicity underlying almost every aspect of our physiology. Circadian rhythms are generated by networks of molecular oscillators in the brain and peripheral tissues that interact with environmental and ...

Sleep and circadian rhythm disorders
2020This chapter reviews the most common sleep disorders in older adults and their treatment. It begins with a brief review of sleep physiology and then gives an outline on how to take a comprehensive sleep history. There are physiological sleep changes related to ageing, but sleep disorders are not part of normal ageing and are often associated with ...

Circadian rhythm sleep disorders
Current Treatment Options in Neurology, 1999Delayed sleep phase syndrome (DSPS) is best treated by first using behaviorally scheduled sleeping and arising times to realign the patient's sleep-wake cycle to local time and then by keeping the cycle in synchrony with local time by adherence to a strict daily schedule. Adjunct treatment with morning light exposure or evening melatonin may be useful,
