Oscillation of Sympathetic Activity in Patients with Obstructive Sleep Apnea during the First Hour of Sleep by Jui-Kun Chiang, Yen-Chang Lin, Yee-Hsin Kao

“…The RMSSD gradually increased from 0–5 min to 50–60 min (<i>p</i> = 0.024), while the LF/HF ratio decreased (<i>p</i> < 0.001) during the first hour of sleep (non-rapid eye movement sleep). The LF/HF ratios of the “S” (snoring) episodes were compared with those of the pre-S episodes. …”

Effect of lofepramine on 5-HT function and sleep. by Herdman, JR, Cowen, P, Campling, G, Hockney, R, Laver, D, Sharpley, A

“…Lofepramine treatment did not alter the hypothermic, endocrine or amnesic effects of buspirone but significantly lowered platelet 5-HT content and decreased rapid eye movement sleep. Our findings suggest that at clinically used doses, lofepramine inhibits the uptake of 5-HT and produces changes in sleep architecture characteristic of tricyclic antidepressants. …”

Laryngeal muscle activities during progressive hypercapnia and hypoxia in awake and sleeping dogs. by England, S, Harding, R, Stradling, JR, Phillipson, E

“…The patterns of muscle activation in response to respiratory stimulation were not different during wakefulness, slow wave sleep, and rapid eye movement sleep. The results indicate that the laryngeal muscles are activated during hypercapnia and hypoxia in a manner which reduces both inspiratory and expiratory airflow resistance regardless of sleep-wakefulness state.…”

Correlation analysis of serum bilirubin and sleep disorders in patients with Parkinson's disease by FAN Yong⁃yan, LI Xiao⁃huan, LI Xiao⁃huan, YANG Da⁃wei, LIANG Ke⁃ke, SHI Xiao⁃xue

“…The Unified Parkinson Disease Rating ScaleⅢ(UPDRSⅢ) was used to evaluate motor symptoms, modified Hoehn⁃Yahr staging was used to evaluate disease severity, Rapid Eye Movement Sleep Behavior Disorder Questionaire⁃ Hong Kong (RBDQ ⁃HK) was used to access the severity of rapid eye movement sleep behavior disorder (RBD), Pittsburgh Sleep Quality Index (PSQI) was used to access the sleep quality, and Epworth Sleepiness Scale (ESS) was used to access the occurrence of excessive daytime sleepiness (EDS). …”

Testing an aetiological model of visual hallucinations in Parkinson's disease by Gallagher, D, Parkkinen, L, O'Sullivan, S, Spratt, A, Shah, A, Davey, C, Bremner, F, Revesz, T, Williams, D, Lees, A, Schrag, A

“…In a logistic regression model the four independent determinants of visual hallucinations were rapid eye movement sleep behavioural disorder (P = 0.026), autonomic function (P = 0.004), frontal cognitive function (P = 0.020) and a test of visuoperceptive function (object decision; P = 0.031). …”

Intracellular chloride regulation mediates local sleep pressure in the cortex by Alfonsa, H, Burman, RJ, Brodersen, PJN, Newey, SE, Mahfooz, K, Yamagata, T, Panayi, MC, Bannerman, DM, Vyazovskiy, VV, Akerman, CJ

“…These changes underlie electrophysiological and behavioral markers of local sleep pressure within the cortex, including the levels of slow-wave activity during non-rapid eye movement sleep and low-frequency oscillatory activity and reduced performance levels in the sleep-deprived awake state. …”

Theta oscillations represent collective dynamics of multineuronal membrane potentials of murine hippocampal pyramidal cells by Asako Noguchi, Kotaro Yamashiro, Nobuyoshi Matsumoto, Yuji Ikegaya

“…Abstract Theta (θ) oscillations are one of the characteristic local field potentials (LFPs) in the hippocampus that emerge during spatial navigation, exploratory sniffing, and rapid eye movement sleep. LFPs are thought to summarize multineuronal events, including synaptic currents and action potentials. …”
