The involvement of central corticotropin-releasing hormone and its receptors in sleep-wake regulation of mice [PDF]

, 2010
The corticotropin-releasing hormone (CRH) is widely recognised as the major activator of the hypothalamic-pituitary-adrenocortical (HPA) axis, thereby mediating neuroendocrine, autonomic, and behavioural responses to stress.

Identification of sleep apnea events using discrete wavelet transform of respiration, ECG and accelerometer signals [PDF]

, 2013
Sleep apnea is a common sleep disorder in which patient sleep patterns are disrupted due to recurrent pauses in breathing or by instances of abnormally low breathing. Current gold standard tests for the detection of apnea events are costly and have the

Autonomic evidence that avoidance matters in the mourning process: A prospective observational study in Japan

Dialogues in Clinical Neuroscience
Introduction Evidence provides support for the therapeutic benefits of targeting avoidance in prolonged grief. However, it is not clear whether avoidance interferes with mourning through altered resilience to stress, as measured by heart rate variability

Pharmacological profiling of zebrafish behavior using chemical and genetic classification of sleep-wake modifiers

Frontiers in Pharmacology, 2015
Sleep-wake states are impaired in various neurological disorders. Impairment of sleep-wake states can be an early condition that exacerbates these disorders. Therefore, treating sleep-wake dysfunction may prevent or slow the development of these diseases.
