Samenvatting

Providing an up-to-date overview of the field, this state-of-the-art reference details how sleep and circadian rhythms are interconnected, revealing the impact of various disease states on, and the molecular and genetic basis for, disrupted sleep and circadian rhythmicity and their effects on physical and mental health, safety, performance, and productivity.
Integrates current and rapidly advancing discoveries of sleep and circadian rhythms!
Offering an integrative approach to research findings from basic science to clinical points of view, Regulation of Sleep and Circadian Rhythms discussesthe three developmental stages of sleep in mammals
the evolution of circadian timing
brainstem regulation of sleep
non-REM sleep and thalamocortical function
cognitive correlates of behavioral states
dysfunctional sleep
sleep homeostasis
neuroanatomy of circadian control
acute effects of light
organization of vertebrate circadian timing systems
production, sites, and mechanisms of melatonin
genetic aspects of pathological human sleep
sleep alterations associated with age, disease, and psychiatric state
and more!
Complete with over 3200 references, tables, and figures, Regulation of Sleep and Circadian Rhythms is an essential resource for clinical neurologists and neurobiologists, pulmonologists, psychiatrists and behavioral scientists, endocrinologists and neuroendocrinologists, chronobiologists, sleep specialists, general medicine practitioners and internists, gerontologists, psychologists, and graduate and medical school students in these disciplines.
