Cognitive consequences of sleep and sleep loss.
Although we still lack any consensus function(s) for sleep, accumulating evidence suggests it plays an important role in homeostatic restoration, thermoregulation, tissue repair, immune control and memory processing. In the last decade an increasing number of reports continue to support a bidirectional and symbiotic relationship between sleep and memory. Studies using procedural and declarative...
متن کاملHuman Sleep and Sleep EEG
This review article summarizes the basic knowledge from the field of sleep research. The emphasis is on the exploration of the rules of polysomnographic recording and scoring sleep stages as well as on results and opinions about the nature of sleep EEG. History of sleep research, sleep physiology, functions of sleep and mostly used experiments are briefly mentioned. Relevant spectral methods an...
متن کاملSleep loss and inflammation.
Controlled, experimental studies on the effects of acute sleep loss in humans have shown that mediators of inflammation are altered by sleep loss. Elevations in these mediators have been found to occur in healthy, rigorously screened individuals undergoing experimental vigils of more than 24h, and have also been seen in response to various durations of sleep restricted to between 25 and 50% of ...
متن کاملImproving Mood, Sleep and Behaviour
Mood and sleep are intrinsically linked whereby biochemical or environmental disturbances can influence a cascade of dysregulation and disease manifestation. The ‘monoamine hypothesis’ suggests that the development of mood, sleep and behaviour disorders occurs when monoamines, such as the neurotransmitters serotonin and noradrenaline, are at insufficient levels in the synaptic cleft. Therefore,...
متن کاملEffects of sleep and sleep loss on immunity and cytokines.
Sleep is hypothesized to be a restorative process that is important for the proper functioning of the immune system. Severity of disordered sleep in depressed- and alcoholic subjects correlates with declines in natural- and cellular immunity and is associated with alterations in the complex cytokine network. Sleep loss has a role in mediating these immune changes as experimentally induced parti...
