ABSTRACT Sleep difficulties are becoming progressively more common among university students and may be related to increased academic and emotional difficulties. Psychoeducational interventions are among the most effective methods for reducing sleep difficulties and are significantly better than pharmacological treatments. Attempts to demonstrate the effectiveness of such treatments among university students are not present in the literature. The purpose of this study was to develop the Sleep Treatment Education Program for Students (STEPS) and evaluate its effectiveness to improve sleep habits and reduce sleep complaints. The study used a double blind, experimental design. Participants in the treatment condition received Sleep Hygiene Guidelines, Stimulus Control Instructions, information about caffeine content, and a brief lecture describing the impact of poor sleep quality on university students. The control group students were informed about the scientific methods of behavioral sciences. Students in the treatment group reported significant improvements in their overall sleep quality and habits. Bedtime worries about sleep difficulties, inconsistent sleep times, nighttime thirst, and caffeine use accounted for the most variance in poor sleep quality. These results suggest that inception of an inexpensive student sleep awareness program such as STEPS may significantly reduce or prevent sleep difficulties in university students.

  • Sleep-Dependent Consolidation of Motor Skills in Patients with Narcolepsy-Cataplexy
    Archives Italiennes de Biologie, 150: 185-193, 2012. Sleep-dependent consolidation of motor skills in patients with narcolepsy-cataplexy M. MAZZETTI1, G. PLAZZI2, C. CAMPI1, A. CICCHELLA1, K. MATTAROZZI1, G. TUOZZI1, S. VANDI2, L. VIGNATELLI3, C. CIPOLLI1 1 Department of Psychology, University of Bologna, Italy; 2 Department of Neurological Sciences, University of Bologna, Italy; 3 City of Bologna Local Health Trust, Bologna, Italy A bstract Background and Objectives: This study investigated whether the altered organization of post-training sleep in patients with narcolepsy-cataplexy (NC) is associated with a lower off-line improvement in the consolidation of motor skills compared with normal subjects. Study Design: Fourteen drug-naive NC patients, fulfilling the international clinical and polysomnographic diag- nostic criteria, and 14 individually-matched controls underwent training at a sequential finger tapping task (FTT) and were re-tested on the next morning (after a night with polysomnographic recording) and after another six nights (spent at home). Setting: Training and retrieval sessions were performed in a controlled laboratory setting. Results: FTT performance was worse in NC patients than controls at training and at both retrieval sessions and showed a fairly different time course (slower than in controls) of consolidation. Several sleep indices (lower values of stage-2 NREM sleep and SWS) were compatible with a lower effectiveness of sleep for consolidation of motor skills in NC patients, although no statistically significant relationship was found between such indices and improve- ment rate. Conclusion: The consolidation process of motor skills results less effective in NC patients since training and slower than in normal subjects over the week following training.

  • Elaborative Encoding, the Ancient Art of Memory, and the Hippocampus

Elaborative encoding, the ancient art of memory, and the hippocampus Sue Llewellyn Faculty of Humanities, University of Manchester, Manchester M15 6PB, United Kingdom http://www.humanities.manchester.ac.uk [email protected] Abstract: This article argues that rapid eye movement (REM) dreaming is elaborative encoding for episodic memories. Elaborative encoding in REM can, at least partially, be understood through ancient art of memory (AAOM) principles: visualization, bizarre association, organization, narration, embodiment, and location. These principles render recent memories more distinctive through novel and meaningful association with emotionally salient, remote memories. The AAOM optimizes memory performance, suggesting that its principles may predict aspects of how episodic memory is configured in the brain. Integration and segregation are fundamental organizing principles in the cerebral cortex. Episodic memory networks interconnect profusely within the cortex, creating omnidirectional “landmark” junctions. Memories may be integrated at junctions but segregated along connecting network paths that meet at junctions. Episodic junctions may be instantiated during non–rapid eye movement (NREM) sleep after hippocampal associational function during REM dreams. Hippocampal association involves relating, binding, and integrating episodic memories into a mnemonic compositional whole. This often bizarre, composite image has not been present to the senses; it is not “real” because it hyperassociates several memories. During REM sleep, on the phenomenological level, this composite image is experienced as a dream scene.

  • Parasomnias: a Comprehensive Review
    Open Access Review Article DOI: 10.7759/cureus.3807 Parasomnias: A Comprehensive Review Shantanu Singh 1 , Harleen Kaur 2 , Shivank Singh 3 , Imran Khawaja 1 1. Pulmonary Medicine, Marshall University School of Medicine, Huntington, USA 2. Neurology, Univeristy of Missouri, Columbia, USA 3. Internal Medicine, Maoming People's Hospital, Maoming, CHN Corresponding author: Harleen Kaur, [email protected] Abstract Parasomnias are a group of sleep disorders characterized by abnormal, unpleasant motor verbal or behavioral events that occur during sleep or wake to sleep transitions. Parasomnias can occur during non- rapid eye movement (NREM) and rapid eye movement (REM) stages of sleep and are more commonly seen in children than the adult population. Parasomnias can be distressful for the patient and their bed partners and most of the time, these complaints are brought up by their bed partners because of the possible disruption in their quality of sleep. As clinicians, it is crucial to understand the characteristics of various parasomnias and address them with detailed sleep history and essential diagnostic approach for proper evaluation. The review aims to highlight the epidemiology, pathophysiology and clinical features of various types of parasomnias along with the appropriate diagnostic and pharmacological approach. Categories: Internal Medicine, Neurology, Psychiatry Keywords: parasomnia, sleep walking, confusional arousals, sleep terror, nightmares, rem behavior disorder, sleep paralysis, rem parasomnias, nrem parasomnias Introduction And Background Parasomnias are a group of sleep disorders that are characterized by abnormal, unpleasant motor, verbal or behavioral events that occur during sleep or wake to sleep transitions [1]. The term ‘parasomnia’ was first coined by a French researcher Henri Roger in 1932 [2].

    © Copyright 2013 Shervin S. Churchill Sleep and Activity Patterns of Children with Down Syndrome in Relation to Sleep Disordered Breathing Shervin S. Churchill A dissertation submitted in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy University of Washington 2013 Reading Committee: Gail M. Kieckhefer, Chair Teresa M. Ward Kristie F. Bjornson Program Authorized to Offer Degree: School of Nursing University of Washington Abstract Sleep and Activity Patterns of Children with Down Syndrome in Relation to Sleep Disordered Breathing Shervin S. Churchill Chair of the Supervisory Committee: Professor Gail M. Kieckhefer Department of Family and Child Nursing Background and purpose: Sleep disordered breathing (SDB) is a major health problem in children with Down syndrome (DS), and may adversely affect not only health, but also accomplishment of life’s daily activities and habits. Obesity is a known risk factor of SDB in the general population, but in children with DS there have been conflicting reports on the role of obesity in SDB. The goal of this dissertation is to: 1) review the current state of knowledge in sleep of children with DS; 2) describe sleep patterns, and examine the relationship of sleep disturbances, including SDB, with the accomplishment of daily life habits; and 3) describe activity patterns, and evaluate the relationships between SDB, sleep duration, obesity and physical activity (PA) in a sample of children with DS. Methods: A review of the English language literature between 1960 and 2012 was completed, studies were described and synthesized. An Internet sample of 139 parents of children ages 5 to 18 years (110 parents of children with DS, 29 parents of children with typical development [TD]), completed a 45-minute online survey.
