Exogenous Melatonin and Sleep Quality: A Scoping Review of Systematic Reviews
Abstract Melatonin is increasingly used to treat sleep disturbances, yet its overall efficacy remains unclear due to variability in existing evidence. This scoping review aimed to synthesize systematic reviews with meta‐analyses assessing the effects of exogenously administered melatonin on sleep quality in humans.

The Ontogenetic Development of Rapid Eye Movement Sleep in Early Life and Its Regulatory Mechanisms
REM sleep was first identified in humans and cats in the late 1950s and exhibits a conserved developmental trajectory across species. This study elucidates key characteristic changes during REM sleep development, thereby providing a foundation for improving the prevention and treatment of various neurodevelopmental disorders.

Longan flower water extract promotes sleep in mice via the serotonin–melatonin axis
Abstract BACKGROUND Longan (Dimocarpus longan) flower is an underutilized botanical byproduct rich in polyphenols with reported neuroprotective actions, yet its role in sleep regulation remains unclear. This study aimed to evaluate the sleep‐promoting effects of longan flower water extract (LFWE) and its underlying neurochemical mechanisms in vivo ...

Neurons, immune cells, and other cellular components within the disease microenvironment (such as stromal cells and tumor cells) constitute a dynamically evolving ecosystem. Neurons directly modulate immune cell activity and inflammatory responses through the release of neurotransmitters (e.g., norepinephrine and CGRP), while also promoting tumor ...

ABSTRACT Objective We evaluated whether sleep disturbance moderates weight loss in breast cancer survivors. We hypothesized that poor sleep prior to behavioral weight loss (BWL) would be associated with less weight reduction than better sleep. Methods Women with prior stage 0‐III breast cancer with BMI ≥ 25 kg/m2 were randomized to BWL (n = 47) or self‐
