TL;DR: Patients and nonpatient attendees at an SCA‐3 annual clinic were asked to complete a questionnaire soliciting RBD‐like behavior, and the results support the previous observation that RBD-like behaviors are significantly increased in SCA-3.
Abstract: We reported previously that behavior suggestive of rapid eye movement sleep behavior disorder (RBD) was markedly increased in a small population of SCA-3 patients. We, therefore, asked patients and nonpatient attendees at an SCA-3 annual clinic to complete a questionnaire soliciting RBD-like behavior. Our results support the previous observation that RBD-like behaviors are significantly increased in SCA-3.

TL;DR: Sleep-wakefulness rhythms were recorded for at least 5 consecutive days in young adult and old rats and results are consistent with the notion that circadian organization is changed in old age.

TL;DR: Mice that were deprived of rapid eye movement sleep for 2 days immediately after one-trial training in an inhibitory avoidance task and were given an electroconvulsive shock after deprivation displayed retrograde amnesia on a retention test given 24 hours later.
Abstract: Mice that were deprived of rapid eye movement sleep for 2 days immediately after one-trial training in an inhibitory avoidance task and were given an electroconvulsive shock after deprivation displayed retrograde amnesia on a retention test given 24 hours later. Electroconvulsive shock produced no amnesia in comparable groups of animals that were not deprived of rapid eye movement sleep.

TL;DR: Computer-measured sleep EEG is highly reliable across non-consecutive nights in both young and elderly normal Ss, and the trait-like stability of these measures suggests they are genetically determined.
