Delayed sleep-wake phase disorder [PDF]

Journal of Thoracic Disease, 2018
Delayed sleep-wake phase disorder (DSWPD) is the most commonly encountered of the circadian rhythm sleep-wake disorders (CRSDs), and is often confused with sleep initiation insomnia. It typically emerges in teenage years and persists into adulthood. In essence, people with the disorder have an abnormally delayed major sleep episode relative to the dark

Rest‐activity rhythm phenotypes in adults with epilepsy and intellectual disability

Epilepsia Open, EarlyView.
Abstract Objective Rest‐activity rhythms (RARs) are perturbed in many forms of neuropsychiatric illness. In this study, we applied wrist actigraphy to describe RAR perturbations in intellectually disabled adults with epilepsy (“E + ID”), using a cross‐sectional case–control design.

Actigraphy, the alternative way?

Frontiers in Psychiatry, 2014
The gold standards for measurement of sleep and wake are polysomnography (PSG) and the multiple sleep latency test (MSLT) and will remain so. Actigraphy is cheap, less labor intensive for the sleep laboratory and gives no burden for the patient.

Disorders of the sleep–wake cycle in adults [PDF]

Postgraduate Medical Journal, 1998
Summary Adults have an intrinsic body clock which regulates a complex series of rhythms including sleep and wakefulness, fatigue and cognitive ability. This endogenous clock naturally runs more slowly than the solar day and is entrained to a 24-h rhythm primarily by the alternation of light and darkness.

Chronic thalamic recordings for idiopathic generalized epilepsy and Lennox–Gastaut syndrome: Ictal and interictal electrophysiological findings

Epilepsia Open, EarlyView.
Abstract Objective To leverage RNS® System chronic thalamic EEG recordings to compare ictal and interictal thalamic electrophysiology in idiopathic generalized epilepsy (IGE) and Lennox–Gastaut Syndrome (LGS). Methods As part of ongoing clinical trials in IGE and LGS, intracranial EEG data were acquired from the centromedian nucleus (CM) bilaterally ...

Dynamics of sleep-wake cyclicity at night across the human lifespan

Frontiers in Neurology, 2010
Studies in adult mammals (rats, cats, mice, and humans) have revealed a surprising regularity in the duration of sleep and wake bouts. In particular, wake bout durations exhibit a power-law distribution whereas sleep bout durations exhibit an exponential
