Toddlers' sleep and temperament : reporting bias or a valid link ? A research note
TL;DR: A link between both subjective and objective sleep measures with temperament dimensions was indicated, and the modest association between sleep and temperament may suggest either a continuity between some aspects of day- and night-time functioning or, alternatively, the influence of the child's sleep behavior in shaping the mother's perceptions of her toddler's temperament.
Journal ArticleDOI
Timing of naps: effects on post-nap sleepiness levels
Peretz Lavie,B. Weler +1 more
TL;DR: The results showed that the early nap was significantly more efficient, contained more stage 3/4, and produced less sleep inertia than the late nap, and supported the priority of the ultradian phase on prior wakefulness with respect to sleep structure.
Journal ArticleDOI
Increased nocturnal melatonin secretion in male patients with hypogonadotropic hypogonadism and delayed puberty.
TL;DR: Melatonin secretion is increased in male patients with GnRH deficiency and the lack of correlations between melatonin and LH suggest that circulating sex steroids, rather than LH, modulate melatonin secretion in a reverse fashion.
Journal ArticleDOI
Narcolepsy-cataplexy in Israeli Jews is associated exclusively with the HLA DR2 haplotype A study at the serological and genomic level
TL;DR: Findings indicate that narcolepsy is associated worldwide with the HLA-DR2,Dw2 haplotype.
Journal ArticleDOI
Who was the first to use the term Pickwickian in connection with sleepy patients? History of sleep apnoea syndrome.
TL;DR: The earliest descriptions of patients who presumably suffered from sleep apnoea were made in the 19th century as mentioned in this paper, and the first electrophysiological sleep recordings of Pickwickian patients and the understanding of the syndrome as disordered breathing in sleep, were made during the late 1950s and 1960s.
