Genetic and anatomical basis of the barrier separating wakefulness and anesthetic-induced unresponsiveness. [PDF]
PLoS Genetics, 2013 A robust, bistable switch regulates the fluctuations between wakefulness and natural sleep as well as those between wakefulness and anesthetic-induced unresponsiveness.

Time Course of Motor Activity Wake Inertia Dissipation According to Age
Clocks & Sleep, 2022 The time course of motor activity sleep inertia (maSI) dissipation was recently investigated through actigraphy in an everyday life condition from middle childhood to late adulthood.

Sleep Inertia and Human Cognition [PDF]
When awakening from sleep, human cognition is significantly impaired for a period of minutes to hours. These impairments include deficits in alertness, memory, decision-making, and reaction times.

The Natural History of Insomnia: Acute Insomnia and First-onset Depression [PDF]
, 2013 Study Objectives: While many studies have examined the association between insomnia and depression, no studies have evaluated these associations 1) within a narrow time frame, 2) with specific reference to acute & chronic insomnia, and 3) using ...

Morning sleep inertia in alertness and performance: effect of cognitive domain and white light conditions. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2013 The transition from sleep to wakefulness entails a temporary period of reduced alertness and impaired performance known as sleep inertia. The extent to which its severity varies with task and cognitive processes remains unclear. We examined sleep inertia

Circadian and homeostatic modulation of sleep spindles in the human electroencephalogram [PDF]
, 2004 Sleep spindles are transient EEG oscillations of about 12-16 Hz. Together with slow waves, they hallmark the human non-REM sleep EEG. Sleep spindles originate in the thalamus and are suggested to have a sleep protective function by reducing sensory ...

Sleep Inertia Countermeasures in Automated Driving: A Concept of Cognitive Stimulation
Information, 2020 When highly automated driving is realized, the role of the driver will change dramatically. Drivers will even be able to sleep during the drive. However, when awaking from sleep, drivers often experience sleep inertia, meaning they are feeling groggy and

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.
