Genetic selection for low glucocorticoid responsiveness recapitulates PTSD-related phenotypes: a behavioral, neuroimaging and sleep-physiology study

Silvia Monari

Humans show inter-individual differences in vulnerability to develop post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD) following exposure to trauma. Several critical biobehavioral features have been consistently described in PTSD patients, including blunted cortisol l ...

How to assess alerting effects of daylight at the workplace? Learnings from semi-controlled studies

Marilyne Andersen, Victoria Eugenia Soto Magán

Daylight, in which we evolved, is naturally rich in the blue component of the spectrum and has key properties when it comes to impacts on body functioning. Current lifestyles are driving the emergence of a 24-hour society that spends most of the time indoo ...

Sleep-wake-driven and circadian contributions to daily rhythms in gene expression and chromatin accessibility in the murine cortex

Felix Naef, Jake Yeung, Maxime Jan

The timing and duration of sleep results from the interaction between a homeostatic sleep-wake-driven process and a periodic circadian process, and involves changes in gene regulation and expression. Unraveling the contributions of both processes and their ...

Spatial clusters of daytime sleepiness and association with nighttime noise levels in a Swiss general population (GeoHypnoLaus)

Stéphane Joost, Idris Guessous

INTRODUCTION: Daytime sleepiness is highly prevalent in the general adult population and has been linked to an increased risk of workplace and vehicle accidents, lower professional performance and poorer health. Despite the established relationship between ...

Distinct locomotor control and awareness in awake sleepwalkers

Olaf Blanke, Oliver Alan Kannape

Sleepwalkers’ complex nocturnal behaviors have inspired fictional characters from Shakespeare’s Lady Macbeth to Polidori’s Vampyre to Cesare, the homicidal somnambulist in The Cabinet of Dr Caligari. Yet although the underlying pathophysiology of sleepwalk ...

Sleep fragmentation alters brain energy metabolism without modifying hippocampal electrophysiological response to novelty exposure

Pierre Magistretti, Maxime Olivier Baud

Sleep is viewed as a fundamental restorative function of the brain, but its specific role in neural energy budget remains poorly understood. Sleep deprivation dampens brain energy metabolism and impairs cognitive functions. Intriguingly, sleep fragmentatio ...

Sustained Sleep Fragmentation Induces Sleep Homeostasis in Mice

Pierre Magistretti, Maxime Olivier Baud

Study Objectives: Sleep fragmentation (SF) is an integral feature of sleep apnea and other prevalent sleep disorders. Although the effect of repetitive arousals on cognitive performance is well documented, the effects of long-term SF on electroencephalogra ...

The Impact of Light Including Non-Image Forming Effects on Visual Comfort

Apiparn Borisuit

Visual comfort at workplaces has often been considered in terms of discomfort glare, luminance distribution and task visibility. Besides visual effects, the lighting environment has also impact on human physiology and behaviour. These effects of light are ...

Effects of prior light exposure on early evening performance, subjective sleepiness, and hormonal secretion

Jean-Louis Scartezzini, Friedrich Linhart, Mirjam Münch, Apiparn Borisuit

In sighted humans, light intensity, timing, exposure duration, and spectral composition of light are important to entrain the endogenous circadian pacemaker to the 24-h day-night cycle. We tested the impact of two realistic office lighting conditions durin ...

Circadian and Wake-Dependent Effects on the Pupil Light Reflex in Response to Narrow-Bandwidth Light Pulses

PURPOSE. Nonvisual light-dependent functions in humans are conveyed mainly by intrinsically photosensitive retinal ganglion cells, which express melanopsin as photopigment. We aimed to identify the effects of circadian phase and sleepiness across 24 hours ...

Sleep paralysis in narcolepsy: more than just a motor dissociative phenomenon?

Francesco Manni

Sleep paralyses are viewed as pure motor phenomena featured by a dissociated state in which REM-related muscle atonia coexists with a wakefulness state of full consciousness. We present a 59-year-old man diagnosed with narcolepsy experiencing sleep paralys ...
