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
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.
Journal ArticleDOI
CAP and arousals in the structural development of sleep: an integrative perspective
TL;DR: Arousals show only one side of the multi-faceted activation complexes, whereas the three subtypes of CAP provide a graded picture of arousal features from the strongest A3 subtypes, showing a prevalence of EEG desynchrony, to the weakest A1 phases, which are dominated by EEG synchrony and represent the prevalent components of CAP.
Journal ArticleDOI
Is insomnia a neurophysiological disorder? The role of sleep EEG microstructure.
Liborio Parrino,Franco Ferrillo,Arianna Smerieri,Maria Cristina Spaggiari,Vincenzo Palomba,Mariano Rossi,Mario Giovanni Terzano +6 more
TL;DR: Polysomnography investigation indicates that insomnia is the outcome of a neurophysiological disturbance that impairs the regulatory mechanisms of sleep control, including sleep duration, intensity, continuity and stability, and remains the "gold standard" for measuring sleep, and especially insomnia.
Journal ArticleDOI
Cyclic alternating pattern (CAP) alterations in narcolepsy
Mario Giovanni Terzano,Arianna Smerieri,Alessandra Del Felice,Francesca Giglia,Vincenzo Palomba,Liborio Parrino +5 more
TL;DR: The reduced periods of CAP in narcoleptic NREM sleep could be the electroencephalographic (EEG) expression of a generally reduced arousability or an increased strength of sleep-promoting forces in the balance between sleep and arousal systems.
