Dreaming without REM sleep.
To test whether mental activities collected from non-REM sleep are influenced by REM sleep, we suppressed REM sleep using clomipramine 50mg (an antidepressant) or placebo in the evening, in a double blind cross-over design, in 11 healthy young men. Subjects were awakened every hour and asked about their mental activity. The marked (81%, range 39-98%) REM-sleep suppression induced by clomipramin...
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, ...
متن کاملDreaming and REM sleep are controlled by different brain mechanisms.
The paradigmatic assumption that REM sleep is the physiological equivalent of dreaming is in need of fundamental revision. A mounting body of evidence suggests that dreaming and REM sleep are dissociable states, and that dreaming is controlled by forebrain mechanisms. Recent neuropsychological, radiological, and pharmacological findings suggest that the cholinergic brain stem mechanisms that co...
متن کاملREM sleep dream mentation in right hemispherectomized patients.
Investigations of dream mentation in brain damaged patients have shed some light on the controversial issue of cerebral lateralization of dreaming. To examine further the relationships between brain function and dreaming, we studied REM sleep dream recall and content in four patients having undergone right functional or anatomical hemispherectomy and eight matched control subjects. Patients wer...
متن کاملLink between numbers, pictures, and physiological tests.
TO THE EDITOR: As physiologists with a keen interest in understanding ventilation heterogeneity via model simulations, we are constantly on the lookout for whatever quantitative morphometric or physiological information can be had from emerging imaging techniques, or alternatively, from advanced analyses of existing techniques. In this respect, we share the enthusiasm conveyed by the editorial ...
