Preprint usage is growing rapidly in the life sciences; however, questions remain on relative quality of preprints when compared to published articles. An objective dimension that readily measurable completeness reporting, as transparency can improve reader's ability independently interpret data and reproduce findings.
This study investigated whether blood concentrations of leptin, ghrelin, and adiponectin are affected by acute total sleep deprivation in a sex- weight-specific manner.A 44 participants (mean age 24.9 years; 20 women; 19 with obesity) participated crossover design, including one night the laboratory. After each night, fasting was collected.After deprivation, levels leptin were lower [SE], vs. sleep: 17.3 [2.6] 18.6 [2.8] ng/mL), whereas those ghrelin higher (839.4 [77.5] 741.4 [63.2] pg/mL...
ObjectivesRotational thromboelastometry (ROTEM)-guided transfusion algorithms in cardiac surgery have been proven to be successful reducing blood loss randomized controlled trials. Using an institutional hemostasis registry of patients (HEROES-CS), the authors hypothesized that use ROTEM-guided would save products and overall costs every day practice.DesignObservational, prospective open cohort database.SettingSingle-center academic hospital.ParticipantsCardiac...
To date, little is known about how dietary patterns may link to measures of sleep quality in older subjects, who often suffer from problems. Here, we investigated, an male population Sweden (n = 970; aged 71 ± 1 year), whether adherence the Healthy Diet Indicator (HDI; based on recommendations World Health Organization) or Mediterranean (MD) linked disturbances. The diet scores were calculated using a seven-day food diary, and self-reported initiation maintenance problems assessed by...
Summary Weighted blankets have emerged as a potential non‐pharmacological intervention to ease conditions such insomnia and anxiety. Despite lack of experimental evidence, these alleged effects are frequently attributed reduced activity the endogenous stress systems an increased release hormones oxytocin melatonin. Thus, aim present in‐laboratory crossover study (26 young healthy participants, including 15 men 11 women) was investigate if using weighted blanket (~12% body weight) at bedtime...
Abstract Background Preprint usage is growing rapidly in the life sciences; however, questions remain on relative quality of preprints when compared to published articles. An objective dimension that readily measurable completeness reporting, as transparency can improve reader’s ability independently interpret data and reproduce findings. Methods In this observational study, we initially independent samples articles bioRxiv PubMed-indexed journals 2016 using a reporting questionnaire. After...
We investigated whether learning performance in a procedural finger tapping task before nocturnal sleep would predict gains after sleep 60 young adults. Gains were defined as change correctly tapped digit sequences between (12 trials administered the evening) and retesting (3 trials administered morning sleep). The same was also administered to separate wake group (N = 54 adults), which learned retested evening. Learning determined by either using average on last three trials or...
Background and objectives In this study, differences in levels of proteins involved coagulation fibrinolysis were compared between fresh frozen (quarantine plasma) Omniplasma. Furthermore, thawing conditions plasma stability after studied. Materials Methods 10 Omniplasma quarantine units used to study different procoagulation, anticoagulation fibrinolytic parameters. Analysis took place at time‐points during storage 2–6°C. Results At baseline, significant reduced factor V, free protein S,...
Background: Acute sleep loss increases the brain’s reactivity toward positive and negative affective stimuli. Thus, despite well-known reduced attention due to acute loss, we hypothesized that humans would gaze longer on happy, angry, fearful faces than neutral when sleep-deprived. We also examined if facial expressions are differently perceived after loss. Methods: In present, within-subjects study, 45 young adults participated in one night of total deprivation with an 8-hour opportunity....
Abstract Night shift work impairs vigilance performance, reduces the ability to stay awake, and compromises brain health. To investigate if magnitude of these adverse night effects differs between sexes weight groups, 47 men women with either normal or obesity participated in one sleep total loss. During loss, participants’ subjective sleepiness, awake during 2-min quiet wake eyes closed were repeatedly assessed. In addition, blood was collected morning after loss measure central nervous...
Abstract Studies have shown that our modern electrical lighting environment reduces naturally occurring seasonal variations in sleep–wake rhythms, such as longer sleep during the winter versus summer. However, less is known about how timing and duration of were affected by seasons premodern era, before invention lighting. The Swedish researcher Olof Hiorter collected documented geophysical data every hour wakefulness Uppsala, Sweden, between December 1746 November 1747. In this way, his bed...
Meal timing has significant effects on health. However, whether meal is associated with the risk of developing and dying cancer not well-researched in humans. In present study, we used data from 941 community-dwelling men aged 71 years who participated Uppsala Longitudinal Study Adult Men to examine association morbidity fatal cancer. The following variables were derived 7-day food diaries: (i) daily eating duration, i.e., time between first last episode an arbitrary day; (ii) calorically...
Older adults often complain about sleep disturbances, such as difficulty falling asleep and maintaining in the early morning hours. Here, we investigated whether meal timing is associated with problems a cohort of older Swedish men (n = 998, mean age 71). Each participant filled out seven-day food diary used to determine daily eating time window, midpoint, variability (i.e., variance midpoints over seven days). Questionnaires were assess initiating sleep. As indicated by logistic regression...
Abstract Preliminary findings suggest that pets may impact the owner’s sleep. By using data from Swedish CArdioPulmonary bIoimage Study (SCAPIS) cohort, we aimed to investigate association of pet ownership with following self-reported sleep outcomes in 3788 4574 participants: (i) achieving recommended daily duration for adults (i.e., at least 7 h per day); (ii) quality as measured by Pittsburgh Sleep Quality Index (a score > 5 indicating poor quality); and (iii) difficulty falling or...
Permanent night shift work is associated with adverse health effects, including elevated blood pressure (BP) and hypertension. Here, we examined the BP response to one of forced wakefulness in a sitting position cohort without experience. According counterbalanced crossover design, 47 young adults either obesity (N = 22; 10 women) or normal weight 25; 11 participated sleep under in-laboratory conditions. Resting ankle brachial arterial were assessed morning, i.e., time day when...
Abstract Introduction Ageing is often accompanied by an increased prevalence of sleep problems. Healthy lifestyle choices, including diet, are especially important to mitigate such impairments. To date, little known about how dietary patterns may link measures quality in older subjects. Therefore, we investigated a Swedish male population, whether adherence the Mediterranean Diet (MD) or Indicator (HDI; based on recommendations from World Health Organization) linked decrease disturbances....
