The CHARMS study: rationale and study protocol for an observational study of sleep and biobehavioral rhythms in older adult couples
AbstractIndividuals with mild cognitive impairment (MCI) demonstrate cognitive decline without major functional impairment and are at increased risk for developing Alzheimer’s disease and related dementias (ADRD). Sleep and biobehavioral rhythm di...

Associations between a novel measure of sleep health and cognitive functioning in middle childhood: a crosssectional Environmental Influences on Child Health Outcomes cohort study
AbstractStudy ObjectivesResearch linking children’s sleep to cognitive outcomes is inconsistent and has largely focused on one aspect of sleep, such as duration, rather than measuring multiple dimensions of sleep health. We hypothesized that child...

Home-based dim light melatonin onset assessment among adults with obesity: feasibility and procedural considerations
AbstractStudy ObjectivesDim light melatonin onset (DLMO) is the best-established marker of central circadian phase and may contribute to unraveling the role of the circadian system in obesity. This study evaluated DLMO among individuals with obesi...

Homeostatic forces underlying the daily pattern of sleep propensity
AbstractThe mismatch between rising sleep need and the fluctuating ability to fall asleep underlies insomnia—the most common sleep disorder—yet remains poorly understood. While sleep need increases steadily with time awake, sleep propensity—the li...

Sleep disordered breathing and circulating non-esterified fatty acids: the cardiovascular health study
AbstractStudy ObjectivesCirculating non-esterified fatty acids (NEFAs) have been associated with impaired glucose metabolism but their modifiable determinants remain uncertain. We sought to determine the association between objectively-measured sl...

ARC genotype modulates slow wave sleep and spectral power in the sleep EEG after total sleep deprivation
AbstractStudy ObjectivesThere are large individual differences in the homeostatic response to sleep deprivation, as reflected in slow wave sleep (SWS) and electroencephalogram (EEG) spectral power, which have largely been left unexplained. Recent ...
