Role of Sleep Restriction in Daily Rhythms of Expression of Hypothalamic Core Clock Genes in Mice
Current Issues in Molecular Biology, 2022 Lack of sleep time is a menace to modern people, and it leads to chronic diseases and mental illnesses. Circadian processes control sleep, but little is known about how sleep affects the circadian system.

Circadian and ultradian NREM-REM sleep modulation of dream recall : effects of age and spectral activity [PDF]
, 2011 This thesis deals with the electrophysiological correlates of sleep prior to dream recall and the age-related effects on dream processing. The dual NREM/REM sleep cycle and the circadian modulation of REM sleep sum to generate dream processing.

Relations between depressed mood and vocal parameters before, during and after sleep deprivation: a circadian rhythm study [PDF]
, 1990 The mechanism underlying improvement after total sleep deprivation (TSD) was studied in 14 major depressed patients. The suggestions that (1) circadian processes and/or (2) dimensions of arousal may play a role in the response to TSD were investigated ...
