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.

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.
