The blob algorithm: a network approach to residual sleepiness in treated obstructive sleep apnea
Residual excessive daytime sleepiness remains a persistent and often disabling symptom in the management of obstructive sleep apnea (OSA). Even when therapy effectively normalizes respiratory events and reduces the apnea–hypopnea index to levels c...

When neuroprotection fails early: prokineticin downregulation in idiopathic REM sleep behavior disorder
Idiopathic rapid eye movement sleep behavior disorder (iRBD) is widely recognized as one of the most specific prodromal manifestations of α-synucleinopathies [1]. Recent meta-analytic evidence has confirmed the exceptionally high risk of phenoconv...

Perspectives on idiopathic hypersomnia: diagnostic challenges, unknown pathophysiological, and emerging therapeutic strategies
AbstractIdiopathic hypersomnia is a rare chronic neurological condition that may be characterized by excessive daytime sleepiness, and/or prolonged nocturnal sleep, and also sleep inertia, yet its underlying mechanisms and diagnostic boundaries re...

Sound asleep: sensory decoupling during sleep depends on an infant’s sensory profile
AbstractInitiating and maintaining sleep requires gating of sensory input. Sensory processing differences, such as elevated sensory reactivity, have emerged as a potential driver of sleep difficulties in autism. Both sensory and sleep difficulties...

Fetal sleep: a cross-species review of physiology, measurement, and classification
AbstractStudy ObjectivesFetal sleep is a vital yet underexplored aspect of prenatal neurodevelopment. Its cyclic organization reflects the maturation of central neural circuits, and disturbances in these patterns may offer some of the earliest det...
