Journal ArticleDOI
Effect of age on EEG arousals in normal sleep.
TL;DR: The paper discusses the impact of age on arousals, the similarities between arousals and the phases d'activation transitoire, and the consideration that arousals are physiological components of sleep.
Journal ArticleDOI
Sleep in children with autistic spectrum disorder: a questionnaire and polysomnographic study.
Silvia Miano,Oliviero Bruni,Maurizio Elia,Alessia Trovato,Arianna Smerieri,Elisabetta Verrillo,Michele Roccella,Mario Giovanni Terzano,Raffaele Ferri +8 more
TL;DR: Sleep in children with autistic spectrum disorder (ASD) is evaluated by means of sleep questionnaires and polysomnography and cyclic alternating pattern (CAP) measures showed subtle alterations of NREM sleep which could be detected with an appropriate methodology of analysis.
Journal ArticleDOI
New drugs for insomnia: comparative tolerability of zopiclone, zolpidem and zaleplon.
TL;DR: Impairment can emerge in the first hours after drug administration, whereas psychomotor and memory tests carried out 7–8 hours later generally show no relevant alterations, which may explain the limited negative influences of these agents on daytime performance.
Journal ArticleDOI
Cyclic alternating pattern (CAP) in normal sleep: polysomnographic parameters in different age groups.
Liborio Parrino,Mirella Boselli,Maria Cristina Spaggiari,Arianna Smerieri,Mario Giovanni Terzano +4 more
TL;DR: The study indicated that CAP is a natural phenomenon of NREM sleep, with specific age-related characteristics across the life cycle, as well as a standardized database for cyclic alternating pattern parameters across representative ages of life.
Journal ArticleDOI
CAP variables and arousals as sleep electroencephalogram markers for primary insomnia.
Mario Giovanni Terzano,Liborio Parrino,Maria Cristina Spaggiari,Vincenzo Palomba,Mariano Rossi,Arianna Smerieri +5 more
TL;DR: Polysomnographic investigation extended to CAP variables and EEG arousals can be an important procedure for the diagnosis of primary insomnia and evaluation of treatment efficacy.
