Are cognitive impairments caused by nighttime hypoxemia or daytime sleepiness? This paper demonstrates the importance of a sound theoretical neurocognitive framework to be able to answer these questions. A strategy to...

متن کاملThe Role of Sleep and Sleep Disorders in the Development, Diagnosis, and Management of Neurocognitive Disorders
It is becoming increasingly apparent that sleep plays an important role in the maintenance, disease prevention, repair, and restoration of both mind and body. The sleep and wake cycles are controlled by the pacemaker activity of the superchiasmic nucleus in the hypothalamus but can be disrupted by diseases of the nervous system causing disordered sleep. A lack of sleep has been associated with ...
