The accuracy, night-To-night variability, and stability of frontopolar sleep electroencephalography biomarkers

TL;DR: One night's recording appeared sufficient to characterize abnormal slow wave sleep, sleep spindle activity, and heart rate variability in patients, but a 2-night average improved the assessment of all other sleep biomarkers.

Insomnia Patients With Objective Short Sleep Duration Have a Blunted Response to Cognitive Behavioral Therapy for Insomnia.

TL;DR: Sleep parameters gathered via actigraphy, sleep diaries, and an Insomnia Symptom Questionnaire across the treatment and follow-up period suggest that individuals with insomnia and objective short sleep duration <6 h are significantly less responsive to CBT-I.
