Detecting Slow Wave Sleep Using a Single EEG Signal Channel [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
Background: In addition to the cost and complexity of processing multiple signal channels, manual sleep staging is also tedious, time consuming, and error-prone. The aim of this paper is to propose an automatic slow wave sleep (SWS) detection method that

Overnight consolidation aids the transfer of statistical knowledge from the medial temporal lobe to the striatum [PDF]

open access: yes, 2012
Sleep is important for abstraction of the underlying principles (or gist) which bind together conceptually related stimuli, but little is known about the neural correlates of this process.

Sleep Alters the Velocity of Physiological Brain Pulsations in Humans

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
Sleep alters I/CSF oscillatory flow, driven by increased respiratory (29%) and vasomotor pulsation (21%) velocities, while cardiovascular pulsations decreased by (22%). Velocity is quantified using optical flow analysis of MREG data. Spectral power increases alongside these pulsations (spatial correlation, r = 0.35 and r = 0.39, respectively ...

Polysomnographically mediated cognitive improvements in individuals with insomnia symptoms following continuous theta-burst stimulation of the default mode network

open access: yesFrontiers in Sleep
IntroductionInsomnia is associated with mild cognitive impairment, although the mechanisms of this impairment are not well-understood. Timing of slow-wave and rapid eye movement sleep may help explain cognitive impairments common in insomnia.

Wearable and Implantable Devices for Continuous Monitoring of Muscle Physiological Activity: A Review

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
Recent advances in materials and device engineering enable continuous, real‐time monitoring of muscle activity via wearable and implantable systems. This review critically summarizes emerging technologies for tracking electrophysiological, biomechanical, and oxygenation signals, outlines fundamental principles, and highlights key challenges and ...

Slow waves during deep sleep support cardiac function

open access: yesCurrent Issues in Sport Science
Introduction The role of sleep in cardiovascular health, particularly the impact of deep non-rapid eye movement (NREM) sleep, is gaining interest in the prevention of cardiovascular diseases (Grandner et al., 2016).

Effects of social stimuli on sleep in mice: non-rapid-eye-movement (NREM) sleep is promoted by aggressive interaction but not by sexual interaction [PDF]

open access: yes, 2001
Sleep is generally considered to be a process of recovery from prior wakefulness. In addition to being affected by the duration of the waking period, sleep architecture and sleep EEG also depend on the quality of wakefulness.

Transplantation of GABAergic Interneuron Progenitors Restores Cortical Circuit Function in an Alzheimer's Disease Mouse Model

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
Transplantation of medial ganglionic eminence (MGE) interneuron progenitors into APP/PS1 cortices restored the slow oscillation characteristic of Alzheimer's disease. Donor cells survived, migrated, and matured into functional GABAergic interneurons, forming synaptic connections.

The effects of caffeine on sleep and maturational markers in the rat.

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2013
Adolescence is a critical period for brain maturation during which a massive reorganization of cortical connectivity takes place. In humans, slow wave activity (

Modeling Resting-State Functional Networks When the Cortex Falls Asleep: Local and Global Changes [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
The transition from wakefulness to sleep represents the most conspicuous change in behavior and the level of consciousness occurring in the healthy brain. It is accompanied by similarly conspicuous changes in neural dynamics, traditionally exemplified by
