A recurring sleep state during which dreaming occurs; a state of rapidly shifting eye movements during sleep.
1With subsequent microinjections, the effects of 5-HT on REM sleep were similar.
2Non-cognitive tests included sleepiness, REM sleep behavior disorder, depression and anxiety scales.
3Both latencies and amplitude increase more in NREM than in REM sleep.
4Systemic atropine created a syndrome of REM sleep without thalamocortical EEG desynchronization.
5The sites where orexins act to suppress REM sleep are incompletely understood.
6Which is why it's called REM sleep -Rapid Eye Movement sleep.
7Results: Four patients with Alzheimer disease presented REM sleep with-out atonia.
8DMI and SER both reduced REM sleep percentage acutely and in each case.
9Moreover, abnormalities of REM sleep can be found in some of these patients.
10It is known that the brainstem cholinergic system is activated during REM sleep.
11Muscle atonia and low-voltage desynchronized cortical activity during REM sleep did not change.
12I wondered what a decent night of chemical-free REM sleep would feel like.
13As the name implies, during REM sleep the eyes move rapidly.
14A dose-dependent REM sleep suppression with 5-HT was observed in five rats tested.
15None of the lesioned rats had sleep onset REM sleep periods or cataplexy.
16REM sleep deprivation has been used as a mode of treatment for major depression.
