CHRONIC INSOMNIA AND STRESS SYSTEM.

Insomnia is a disorder of hyperarousal, influenced by psychological and physiological factors, and a multidimensional therapeutic approach should address these factors.

PER3 Polymorphism Predicts Sleep Structure and Waking Performance

A polymorphism in the PER3 gene predicts individual differences in sleep structure and cognitive performance, potentially due to its effects on sleep homeostasis.

It's practice, with sleep, that makes perfect: implications of sleep-dependent learning and plasticity for skill performance.

Sleep-dependent learning and brain plasticity significantly contribute to the development of skill performance, including the foundation of many sports actions.

Systematic interindividual differences in neurobehavioral impairment from sleep loss: evidence of trait-like differential vulnerability.

Interindividual differences in neurobehavioral deficits during sleep deprivation are a result of trait-like differential vulnerability, not just variations in sleep history.

Impact of sleep debt on metabolic and endocrine function

Sleep debt negatively impacts carbohydrate metabolism and endocrine function, potentially worsening age-related chronic disorders.

Practice parameters for the use of light therapy in the treatment of sleep disorders. Standards of Practice Committee, American Academy of Sleep Medicine.

Light therapy is generally safe when used within recommended intensity and time limits, and can be useful in treating delayed sleep phase syndrome and advanced sleep phase syndrome, with less clear benefits in jet lag, shift work, and non-24-hour sleep-wake syndrome in some blind patients.

Overtraining in Sport

Overtraining in sport can cause physiological, biomedical, and psychological effects, with potential treatment and prevention methods.
