• By the time they enter sixth grade, many middle-class children sleep so little during the school week that daytime drowsiness may compromise their ability to pay attention and learn, a new study suggests.
• "Our study suggests that the sleep behavior of the older children may not be in accordance with their physiological needs," they contend. "These children are thus at risk of being chronically sleep deprived. ...
• What's more, Sadeh's team finds that nearly 20 percent of kids in the second, fourth, and sixth grades have serious sleep problems that typically aren't perceived by either the children or their parents. In the study, sleep disturbances consisted of regularly being awake for at least 10 percent of the night after falling asleep or waking three or more times during the night for at least 5 minutes each time.
• Earlier investigations indicated that sleep disturbances affect about one-third of babies and toddlers. Other sleep difficulties arise as the daily sleep-wake cycle gets pushed back after puberty.

• Results: Sleep deprivation does not produce deterioration in the calculating capacity or in the short-term memory in the digit test. ...
• Conclusion: A total sleep deprivation of 60 hours produces reversible neuropsychological alterations on complex tasks and those involve divergent thought. These findings seem to be consistent with the Horne's formulation that related, from a functional perspective, sleep with the neurological restoration of prefrontal cortex. Knowledge about the mechanisms that explain the deficit observed during sleep loss is relevant from a theoretic point of view, in order to know more of sleep function, as well as from a practical point of view, due to the frequent sleep loss in the modern life.

• EFFECTS OF SLEEP DEPRIVATION ON MOTOR FUNCTION.
• It may seem obvious that a good night's sleep will be beneficial to motor function in both healthy individuals and those with Parkinson's Disease. However, it is not known to what extent poor sleep affects motor activities in PD. Most patients are aware that a good night's sleep or a nap results in improvement in the symptoms of PD. The sleep benefit phenomenon suggests that dopamine synthesis and storage increases during sleep in the remaining dopaminergic nerve terminals. On the other hand, there is some evidence that sleep benefit in patients with Parkinson's Disease is independent of sleep quality, or even associated with more disturbed sleep compared to findings in patients without sleep benefit.
• Animal research provides evidence that dopamine interferes with cycles of sleep wakefulness and that sleep deprivation influences the dopamine system. In normal rats, selective rapid eye movement (REM) sleep deprivation increases behavioral (sic) and motor responses to dopamine agonists such as apomorphine, an effect possibly mediated by supersensitivity of postsynaptic dopamine receptors. REM sleep is that component of normal sleep in which a person experiences dreams. Researchers can detect these cycles of sleep by recording eye movements along with the brain waves. In Parkinsonian rat models, a significant increase in ambulatory behavior (sic) and rearing in animals with bilateral lesions of the nigrostriatal tract was seen after 3 days of selective REM sleep deprivation.
• REM sleep deprivation also induces a clear increase in apomorphine-induced turning behavior (sic) in rats with unilateral 6-OHDA nigrostriatal lesions, suggesting increased supersensitivity of dopamine receptors.
• Links between sleep deprivation and the dopamine system or motor function have also been shown in clinical studies. Dopamine binding to D2 receptors was modified after 1 night of total sleep deprivation in patients with major depression. Also, spontaneous eye blink rate, which is assumed to reflect central dopamine activity, increases after sleep deprivation. With this information as background a group of researchers from Max Planck Institute of Psychiatry, Munich, Germany and the Centro Neurologico, Hospital Francls, Buenos Aires, Argentina investigated whether sleep deprivation modulates awake motor performance in patients with Parkinson's Disease.

• Studies have shown that sleep deprivation leads to impaired consolidation of both declarative and procedural memories. ...
• According to some sleep clinic research, the negative effects of sleep deprivation are particularly dramatic in procedural learning. ...
• However, new studies involving nootropic medications such as modafinil (Provigil™) show no decrease in memory skills following several days of sleep deprivation. ...
• Popular sayings such as "sleep on it" or "consult the pillow" reflect the theory that remolded memories produce new creative associations in the morning. Many studies demonstrate that a healthy sleep produces a significant learning performance boost. Healthy sleep must include the appropriate sequence and proportion of NREM and REM phases, which play a different role in memory consolidation-optimization process. ...
• A study 1 has also found that after sleep there is an increased insight, that is, a sudden gain of explicit knowledge. Thus during sleep the representation of new memories are restructured. ...
• Other researchers' theories on additional functions of sleep differ significantly. ... Others claim that REM sleep is needed to "refresh" the brain after NREM phase, or that REM is needed to prevent stasis of fluids in the eye. These theories have dwindling support in the sleep research community. ...

• Brain Activity is Visibly Altered Following Sleep Deprivation.
• The ability of the brain to function following sleep deprivation appears to vary with the task at hand, and in some cases the brain attempts to compensate for the adverse effects caused by lack of sleep, according to a study published in the Feb. ...
• A team of researchers from the UCSD School of Medicine and the Veterans Affairs Healthcare System, San Diego used functional magnetic resonance imaging (fMRI) technology to monitor activity in the brains of sleep-deprived subjects performing simple verbal learning tasks.
• Furthermore, the temporal lobe, a brain region involved in language processing, was activated during verbal learning in rested subjects but not in sleep deprived subjects. Additionally, a region of the brain called the parietal lobes, not activated in rested subjects during the verbal exercise, was more active when the subjects were deprived of sleep. ... Although subjects’ memory performance was less efficient with sleep deprivation, greater activity in the parietal region was associated with better memory. ...
• “Only in recent years have we begun to realize the prevalence and severity of sleep deprivation in our population, with a significant number of people doing shift work, suffering from jet lag and so forth,” said J. ... “Yet, we don’t know very much about how sleep deprivation impairs performance, and how precisely the brain reacts to lack of sleep. These findings are just a beginning, and as we learn more, perhaps will be able to devise interventions to alleviate the behavioral impairments associated with lack of sleep. ...
• For this study, thirteen normal healthy subjects were first evaluated in a sleep laboratory to determine that their sleep patterns were normal. They were then kept awake and carefully monitored in a hospital sleep laboratory for over a period of about 35 hours. ... These images reveal increased and decreased activation of specific regions of the brain in each subject from a rested state through various stages of sleep deprivation. ...
• This study and another study published by Gillin’s team in the December 1999 NeuroReport indicate that the brain is extremely dynamic in its efforts to function when deprived of sleep, though the consequence for the subject is diminished ability to perform basic cognitive tasks. It is also apparent that the effects of sleep loss are different depending on the cognitive task the brain is asked to perform.
• In the earlier study, the team studied sleep-deprived subjects performing an arithmetic task involving subtraction. In that study, they observed that the brain regions activated in rested subjects doing the arithmetic problems were not active in the sleep-deprived subjects. No other region of the brain became activated when subjects performed arithmetic when sleep-deprived. ...
