Nocturnal Oxyhemoglobin Desaturation in COPD Patients with Arterial Oxygen Tensions Above 60 mm Hg
TL;DR: Continuous oxyhemoglobin monitoring during sleep remains the only reliable tool for detecting nocturnal desaturation in COPD patients using formal polysomnography.
Journal ArticleDOI
Fine-tuned coupling between human parahippocampal ripples and sleep spindles.
TL;DR: The demonstration of spindle phase‐locked ripple activity in humans is consistent with the idea of a temporally fine‐tuned hippocampus‐to‐neocortex transfer of information taking place during SWS.
Journal ArticleDOI
Central Sleep Apnea: Improvement With Acetazolamide Therapy
David P. White,Clifford W. Zwillich,Cheryl K. Pickett,Neil J. Douglas,Larry J. Findley,John V. Weil +5 more
TL;DR: Subsequent studies in normal subjects showed that acetazolamide, like other agents known to produce a metabolic acidosis, shifted the hypercapnic ventilatory response to the left 5 +/- 0.54 mm Hg, which may be important in mediating the observed decrease in apneas.
Journal ArticleDOI
Reduction of rapid eye movement sleep by diurnal and nocturnal seizures in temporal lobe epilepsy.
TL;DR: Temporal lobe complex partial seizures decrease REM sleep, particularly when occurring during sleep but also when occurring on the previous day, which may be responsible for the prolonged impairment of functioning that some patients report following seizures.

Electroencephalographic sleep abnormalities in schizophrenia. Relationship to positive/negative symptoms and prior neuroleptic treatment.

TL;DR: Electroencephalographic sleep in drug-naive and previously medicated schizophrenics had significantly greater impairment of sleep continuity and shorter rapid eye movement latency when compared with controls, and findings were significantly influenced by duration of drug-free status.
