Chemical compound and disease context of Sleep Initiation and Maintenance Disorders

  • Some types of primary insomnia have been attributed to diminished melatonin production, particularly in the elderly, but evidence of a causal link is still inconclusive [10].
  • Oxazepam produced some rebound insomnia, consisting of about an hour's reduction of polysomnographically defined sleep, but without gross mood disturbance or the patients' awareness of sleep loss [11].
  • CONCLUSION: In subjects with primary insomnia the administration of 20 mg oral temazepam results in changes in both the pharmacodynamic measures and in quality of sleep [12].
  • We hypothesized that chronic insomnia is associated with increased plasma levels of ACTH and cortisol [13].
  • Withdrawal of triazolam was associated with sleep and mood disturbances (rebound insomnia and rebound anxiety), whereas quazepam exerted carryover effectiveness [14].
 

Biological context of Sleep Initiation and Maintenance Disorders

 

Anatomical context of Sleep Initiation and Maintenance Disorders

  • Ultra-rapidly and rapidly eliminated compounds used in the management of transient insomnia should be given in doses that are as free as possible from central nervous system depression as indicated by suppression of REM sleep during the early part of the night [17].
 

Gene context of Sleep Initiation and Maintenance Disorders

  • We conclude that chronic insomnia is associated with a shift of IL-6 and TNF secretion from nighttime to daytime, which may explain the daytime fatigue and performance decrements associated with this disorder [18].
  • Quality of sleep and P300 amplitude in primary insomnia: a preliminary study [19].
  • CONCLUSIONS: Our results confirm that Beta activity is increased in Primary Insomnia [20].
  • Ramelteon (TAK-375), a selective MT1/MT2-receptor agonist, reduces latency to persistent sleep in a model of transient insomnia related to a novel sleep environment [21].
  • Nocturnal sleep was recorded prior to daytime testing that included the Multiple Sleep Latency Test, profile of mood states, card sorting, and Stanford Sleepiness Scale in 138 volunteers with the complaint of chronic insomnia and 89 noncomplaining sleepers ("normals") [22].
