Principal component structuring of the Non-REM sleep EEG spectrum in older adults yields age-related changes in the sleep and wake drives

Mirjam Münch

Age-related disturbances of the sleep-wake cycle can reflect ontogenetic changes in regulatory mechanisms underlying normal and pathological aging, but the exact nature of these changes remains unclear. The present report is the first attempt to apply prin ...

Altered cortical and subcortical local coherence in obstructive sleep apnea: a functional magnetic resonance imaging study

Dimitri Nestor Alice Van De Ville, Jonas Richiardi

Obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) syndrome is the most common sleep-related breathing disorder, characterized by excessive snoring and repetitive apneas and arousals, which leads to fragmented sleep and, most importantly, to intermittent nocturnal hypoxaemia d ...

Sustained sleep fragmentation affects brain temperature, food intake and glucose tolerance in mice

Pierre Magistretti, Jean-Marie Petit, Maxime Olivier Baud

Sleep fragmentation is present in numerous sleep pathologies and constitutes a major feature of patients with obstructive sleep apnea. A prevalence of metabolic syndrome, diabetes and obesity has been shown to be associated to obstructive sleep apnea. Whil ...

The Impact of Sleep Fragmentation on Sleep Homeostasis, Brain and Peripheral Energy Metabolism and Spatial Learning

Maxime Olivier Baud

The quality of sleep has recently come to the forefront of public health concerns in industrialized nations. Indeed, voluntary sleep curtailment is widespread, sleep disorders are increasingly recognized and both correlate with the current epidemiology of ...

Effects on subjective and objective alertness and sleep in response to evening light exposure in older subjects

Mirjam Münch

Evening bright light exposure is reported to ameliorate daytime sleepiness and age-related sleep complaints, and also delays the timing of circadian rhythms. We tested whether evening light exposure given to older adults with sleep–wake complaints would de ...

SleepPic. Hardware Developments for a Wearable On-line Sleep and Wake Discrimination System

Dario Floreano, Walter Karlen

The design of wearable systems comes with constraints in computational and power resources. We describe the development of customized hardware for the wearable discrimination of human sleep and wake based on cardio-respiratory signals. The device was desig ...

Using measured instead of perceived noise in hedonic models

Philippe Thalmann, Andrea Baranzini, Caroline Schaerer

This paper compares the use of perceived and measured noise in a hedonic housing model. Although in theory the use of subjective variables is recommended, most empirical applications use measured noise variables. Merging different databases, we obtain a sa ...

Metabolic response of the cerebral cortex following gentle sleep deprivation and modafinil administration

Pierre Magistretti, Jean-Marie Petit, Christophe Kopp

Objectives: The main energy reserve of the brain is glycogen, which is almost exclusively localized in astrocytes. We previously reported that cerebral expression of certain genes related to glycogen metabolism changed following instrumental sleep deprivat ...

Adaptive Sleep-Wake Discrimination for Wearable Devices

Dario Floreano, Walter Karlen

Sleep/wake classification systems that rely on phys- iological signals suffer from inter-subject differences that make accurate classification with a single, subject-independent model difficult. To overcome the limitations of inter-subject variability we s ...

Adaptive wake and sleep detection for wearable systems

Walter Karlen

Sleep problems and disorders have a serious impact on human health and wellbeing. The rising costs for treating sleep-related chronic diseases in industrialized countries demands efficient prevention. Low-cost, wearable sleep / wake detection systems which ...
