Journal of Clinical Sleep Medicine, 2006 A 40-year-old Hispanic American male, who weighed 165 lb and was 5’11” tall, consented to participate in a 3-day sleep protocol and was admitted to the UCLA General Clinical Research Center. The patient complained of fatigue during the day and difficulty initiating sleep, along with 3 to 4 awakenings per night.

Scientific Reports, 2022 Non-invasive stimulation technologies are emerging as potential treatment options for a range of neurodegenerative disorders. Experimental evidence suggests that stimuli-evoked changes in slow brain rhythms may mitigate or even prevent neuropathological ...

Sleep Disturbances in Rats With Genetic Pre-disposition to Spike-Wave Epilepsy (WAG/Rij)
Frontiers in Neurology, 2021 Wistar Albino Glaxo Rijswijk (WAG/Rij) rats are widely used in basic and pre-clinical studies as a valid genetic model of absence epilepsy. Adult WAG/Rij rats exhibit generalized 8–10-Hz spike-wave discharges (SWDs) in the electroencephalogram.

Characterising the relationship between sleep stages and associated spectral power in diabetes
Sleep Epidemiology, 2022 Sleep disturbances are prevalent in the UK and globally, with sleep data from across 13 countries suggesting that only 55% of adults are satisfied with their sleep. Disturbed sleep is found in diabetes which is one of the most serious diseases worldwide.

Mechanisms of memory retrieval in slow-wave sleep : memory retrieval in slow-wave sleep [PDF]
, 2017 Study Objectives: Memories are strengthened during sleep. The benefits of sleep for memory can be enhanced by re-exposing the sleeping brain to auditory cues; a technique known as targeted memory reactivation (TMR).

A continuum model for the dynamics of the phase transition from slow-wave sleep to REM sleep [PDF]
, 2010 Previous studies have shown that activated cortical states (awake and rapid eye-movement (REM) sleep), are associated with increased cholinergic input into the cerebral cortex.

Neurophysiology of Avian Sleep: Comparing Natural Sleep and Isoflurane Anesthesia
Frontiers in Neuroscience, 2019 Propagating slow-waves in electroencephalogram (EEG) or local field potential (LFP) recordings occur during non-rapid eye-movement (NREM) sleep in both mammals and birds.

Brainstem regulation of slow-wave-sleep [PDF]
Current Opinion in Neurobiology, 2017 Recent work has helped reconcile puzzling results from brainstem transection studies first performed over 60 years ago, which suggested the existence of a sleep-promoting system in the medullary brainstem. It was specifically shown that GABAergic neurons located in the medullary brainstem parafacial zone (PZGABA) are not only necessary for normal slow ...

Propagated infra-slow intrinsic brain activity reorganizes across wake and slow wave sleep [PDF]
, 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 ...

Motor hyperactivity of the iron-deficient rat - an animal model of restless legs syndrome. [PDF]
, 2017 BackgroundAbnormal striatal dopamine transmission has been hypothesized to cause restless legs syndrome. Dopaminergic drugs are commonly used to treat restless legs syndrome. However, they cause adverse effects with long-term use.
