Since the late 90 s, a renewed interest in the neurobiology of
sleep has provided new advancements in the understanding of basic
sleep science and the clinical aspects of sleep disorders, with
particular interest given to the role of genetics.
From laboratory techniques and therapies, groundbreaking
research in sleep-wakefulness, new models of rapid eye movement
(REM) sleep mechanisms, to bright light therapy for circadian
rhythm sleep disorders, this handbook will provide clinicians and
researchers with a state-of-the-art reference that summarizes the
clinical features and management of the many neurological
manifestations of sleep disorders.
Practitioners will find invaluable research, information, and
laboratory techniques on such topics as sleep-wake-dependent genes,
the role of sleep duration in mortality and morbidity, and
advancements in the understanding of the neurobiology of sleep
disorders, including narcolepsy-cataplexy, restless legs syndrome,
REM behavior disorders, fatal familiar insomnia, sleep apnea and
heart failure, and nocturnal paroxysmal dystonia, amongst others.
In addition, significant advancements in therapies and drug
protocols are presented.
* Clinical data on groundbreaking advancements in the understanding
of basic sleep science
* Invaluable information on new therapies and drug protocols for
sleep disorders
* A state-of-the-art reference that includes the role of genetics
in sleep medicine"
