If you're raising your eyebrows you're not alone – this sounded strange to me at first, but co-founder Greg Nemeth explains it's a well established sleep-study technique called actigraphy.
It is well established that sleep facilitates plastic changes that underlie the consolidation of recently acquired knowledge [1], [2], [3], [4].
It is well established that sleep is altered during pregnancy [ 43].
DOI: http://dx.doi.org/10.7554/eLife.07903.002 It is well established that sleep contributes to memory consolidation processes (Diekelmann and Born, 2010; Maquet, 2001; Stickgold and Walker, 2013).
It's also well established that dolphins sleep with one brain hemisphere at a time, and recent research suggests that we may also do the same when sleeping in a strange place, in order to be more vigilant.
The health risks of too little sleep are well established, but how about too much sleep?
If it's been well established that short-term sleep deprivation can produce transient cognitive impairment, what about chronic sleep deprivation?
This may be relevant to glycemic control because it is now well established that compared with NREM sleep, REM sleep is associated with greater sympathetic activity in healthy subjects as well as in patients with OSA (17– 17).
Dr. Rickard Ljung, a co-author of the study and an assistant professor of epidemiology at Karolinska Institute, said it was well established that long-term sleep deprivation was a risk factor for heart attack, and added that more heart attacks occurred on Mondays than any other day of the week.
It has been well established by now that sleep is integral to memory formation.
While it has been well established that SSRIs decrease REM sleep in both humans and rats [43] [47], we found no changes in REM sleep in the adolescent and adult rats.
