Determinants of Slow-Wave Activity in Overweight and Obese Adults: Roles of Sex, Obstructive Sleep Apnea and Testosterone Levels

Frontiers in Endocrinology, 2018
Background: Slow-wave activity (SWA) in non-rapid eye movement (NREM) sleep, obtained by spectral analysis of the electroencephalogram, is a marker of the depth or intensity of NREM sleep.

Abnormal oscillatory brain dynamics in schizophrenia: a sign of deviant communication in neural network?

BMC Psychiatry, 2007
Background Slow waves in the delta (0.5–4 Hz) frequency range are indications of normal activity in sleep. In neurological disorders, focal electric and magnetic slow wave activity is generated in the vicinity of structural brain lesions. Initial studies,

Real-Time Excitation of Slow Oscillations during Deep Sleep Using Acoustic Stimulation

Sensors, 2021
Slow-wave synchronous acoustic stimulation is a promising research and therapeutic tool. It is essential to clearly understand the principles of the synchronization methods, to know their performances and limitations, and, most importantly, to have a ...

Challenging sleep homeostasis

Neurobiology of Sleep and Circadian Rhythms, 2021
In this commentary, I play the Devil’s advocate and assume the title of High Contrarian. I intend to be provocative to challenge long-standing ideas about sleep. I blame all on Professor Craig Heller, who taught me to think this way as a graduate student

Arousal-Mediated Sleep Disturbance Persists During Cocaine Abstinence in Male Mice

Frontiers in Neuroscience, 2022
Acute cocaine disturbs sleep on a dose-dependent basis; however, the consequences of chronic cocaine remain unclear. While the arousal promotion following cocaine has been well-established, effects of cocaine on sleep after termination of chronic cocaine

Propagated infra-slow intrinsic brain activity reorganizes across wake and slow wave sleep

eLife, 2015
Propagation of slow intrinsic brain activity has been widely observed in electrophysiogical studies of slow wave sleep (SWS). However, in human resting state fMRI (rs-fMRI), intrinsic activity has been understood predominantly in terms of zero-lag ...
