APOEε4 and slow wave sleep in older adults
Slow wave (or stage N3) sleep has been linked to a variety of cognitive processes. However, the role of stage N3 in the elderly is debated. The link between stage N3 and episodic memory may be weakened or changed in the older adult population, possibly due to several altered mechanisms impacting the cellular structure of the brain. The bases for the age-related dissociation between stage N3 and...
متن کاملLoss of slow-wave sleep.
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. He denied snoring and having any difficulty breathing during sleep. A 2-week sleep d...
متن کاملFunctional neuroanatomy of human slow wave sleep.
The distribution of regional cerebral blood flow (rCBF) was estimated during sleep and wakefulness by using H215O positron emission tomography (PET) and statistical parametric mapping. A group analysis on 11 good sleepers (8 with steady slow wave sleep, SWS) showed a significant negative correlation between the occurrence of SWS and rCBF in dorsal pons and mesencephalon, thalami, basal ganglia,...
متن کاملHuman Gamma Oscillations during Slow Wave Sleep
Neocortical local field potentials have shown that gamma oscillations occur spontaneously during slow-wave sleep (SWS). At the macroscopic EEG level in the human brain, no evidences were reported so far. In this study, by using simultaneous scalp and intracranial EEG recordings in 20 epileptic subjects, we examined gamma oscillations in cerebral cortex during SWS. We report that gamma oscillati...
متن کاملSlow wave and REM sleep mentation.
The aim of this experiment was to compare the characteristics of mental activity during REM and Slow Wave Sleep (SWS). Forty dream reports and their mnemonic associations were collected from twenty subjects. The reports were analyzed for structure (number of temporal units, number of report multi-units, and narrative continuity), awareness (reality testing, subjective time), and content (self, ...
