Synaptic output from suprachiasmatic nucleus cholecystokinin neurons regulates locomotor rhythmicity
BackgroundThe mammalian suprachiasmatic nucleus (SCN) serves as the master circadian pacemaker, which coordinates daily behavioral and physiological rhythms through functionally diverse neuronal subtypes. Cholecystokinin (CCK) is expressed in a su...

The relationship between healthy sleep patterns and the risk of scoliosis: a large prospective cohort study
BackgroundCurrently, prospective evidence on how sleep habits specifically affect scoliosis is nearly nonexistent. We therefore sought to clarify the association between comprehensive sleep behavior patterns and the incidence of this disease.Metho...

Impact of C-reactive protein–triglyceride–glucose and systemic immune-inflammation indices on obstructive sleep apnea in older adults with depression
ObjectiveBoth the C-reactive protein (CRP)–triglyceride–glucose index (CTI) and the systemic immune-inflammation index (SII) are easily accessible, cost-effective, and rapid indices derived from biochemical examinations. The study aimed to identif...

A data-driven measure of REM sleep propensity for human and rodent sleep
IntroductionMammalian sleep is characterized by alternations between episodes of rapid-eye-movement sleep (REMS) and non-REM sleep (NREMS). The phenomenon of REMS pressure, namely a drive for REMS that builds up between REMS episodes, is thought t...

Divergent dFC stability of DMN and SMN in narcolepsy
Narcolepsy type 1 (NT1) is characterized by profound sleep-wake state instability, pointing to a fundamental dysregulation of large-scale brain network dynamics. To elucidate this, we assessed whole-brain dynamic functional connectivity (dFC) stab...

Efficacy of repetitive transcranial magnetic stimulation for insomnia disorder: a systematic review and meta-analysis of randomized controlled trials
ObjectiveInsomnia Disorder (ID) is associated with significant health burdens. First-line treatments are limited by accessibility or side effects, necessitating alternative approaches. rTMS, a noninvasive neuromodulation technique, has shown promi...
