Bifurcations of sleep patterns due to homeostatic and circadian variation in a sleep-wake flip-flop model [PDF]

open access: yesarXiv, 2021
Differential equation-based physiological models of sleep-wake networks describe sleep-wake regulation by simulating the activity of wake- and sleep-promoting neuronal populations and the modulation of these populations by homeostatic and circadian ($\sim24$ h) drives.

Threshold Values of Sleep Spindles Features in Healthy Adults Using Scalp‐EEG and Associations With Sleep Parameters

open access: yesAnnals of Clinical and Translational Neurology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Objective Sleep spindles are an electrophysiological fingerprint of the sleeping human brain. They can be described in terms of duration, frequency, amplitude, and density, and vary widely according to age and sex. Spindles play a role in sleep and wake functions and are altered in several neurological and psychiatric disorders.

Validity and Reliability of Clinical and Patient‐Reported Outcomes in Multisystem Proteinopathy 1

open access: yesAnnals of Clinical and Translational Neurology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Objective Valosin‐containing protein (VCP)‐associated multisystem proteinopathy 1 (MSP1) is caused by variants in the VCP gene. MSP1 results in various phenotypes including progressive myopathy, Paget's disease of bone, frontotemporal dementia, amyotrophic lateral sclerosis, and parkinsonism, among others.

Classifying sleep states using persistent homology and Markov chain: a Pilot Study [PDF]

open access: yesarXiv, 2020
Obstructive sleep Apnea (OSA) is a form of sleep disordered breathing characterized by frequent episodes of upper airway collapse during sleep. Pediatric OSA occurs in 1-5% of children and can related to other serious health conditions such as high blood pressure, behavioral issues, or altered growth.

EEG Response to Sedation Interruption Complements Behavioral Assessment After Severe Brain Injury

open access: yesAnnals of Clinical and Translational Neurology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Objective Accurate assessment of the level of consciousness and potential to recover in patients with severe brain injury underpins crucial decisions in the intensive care unit but remains a major challenge for the clinical team. The neurological wake‐up test is a widely used assessment tool. However, many patients' behavioral responses during

Extracting continuous sleep depth from EEG data without machine learning [PDF]

open access: yesarXiv, 2023
The human sleep-cycle has been divided into discrete sleep stages that can be recognized in electroencephalographic (EEG) and other bio-signals by trained specialists or machine learning systems. It is however unclear whether these human-defined stages can be re-discovered with unsupervised methods of data analysis, using only a minimal amount of ...

Patient Perceptions of Medication Therapy for Prevention of Posttraumatic Osteoarthritis Following Anterior Cruciate Ligament Injury: A Qualitative Content Analysis

open access: yesArthritis Care &Research, EarlyView.
Objective Posttraumatic osteoarthritis (PTOA) accounts for nearly 12% of osteoarthritis incidences and often occurs after anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) tear. Ensuring the uptake of preventive treatments for PTOA requires that investigators and clinicians understand factors influencing patients to seek preventive therapies.
