Tracing the cognitive footprint of isolated rapid eye movement sleep behavior disorder: long-term decline, sex differences, and the road to neurodegeneration
In recent years, isolated rapid eye movement (REM) sleep behavior disorder (iRBD) has emerged as a critical model for studying prodromal neurodegeneration. As the most reliable clinical harbinger of α-synucleinopathies—Parkinson’s disease (PD), de...

Performance of wearable light sensors for measuring photopic and melanopic illuminance under laboratory and free-living conditions
AbstractWearable sensors are commonly used to study the effects of free-living light exposure on physiological outcomes; however, rigorous validation of their performance has been limited. To address this gap, we quantified the accuracy and precis...
