Sleep Bursts of Cranial Forces- a Potential Marker of Neurodegenerative Disease
2026-08-31
Abstract excerpt
We identified Sleep Bursts (SBs), as a novel phenomenon of brief (1-2 sec), often periodic bursts in cranial forces occurring during human sleep. Our goal was to characterize SBs in normal subjects, then compare SB in a cohort of subjects with neurodegenerative disease (NDD). We recorded 32 cognitively healthy subjects (23 -87 years) and 13 subjects with NDD (51 - 84 years). SBs occurred in all 45 subjects. SBs oc...
