    Orfeu M Buxton
    Department of Medicine, Brigham and Women s Hospital, Boston, Massachusetts, USA
    Diabetes 59:2126-33. 2010
    ..This study tests the hypothesis that decreasing nighttime sleep duration reduces insulin sensitivity and assesses the effects of a drug, modafinil, that increases alertness during wakefulness...
  2. ncbi Short and long sleep are positively associated with obesity, diabetes, hypertension, and cardiovascular disease among adults in the United States
    Orfeu M Buxton
    Brigham and Women s Hospital, Department of Medicine, Harvard Medical School, Division of Sleep Medicine, BLI 438, 221 Longwood Avenue, Boston, MA 02115, United States
    Soc Sci Med 71:1027-36. 2010
    ..These findings suggest a 7-8 h sleep duration directly and indirectly reduces chronic disease risk...
  3. ncbi Covert waking brain activity reveals instantaneous sleep depth
    Scott M McKinney
    Department of Neurology, Massachusetts General Hospital, Boston, Massachusetts, United States of America
    PLoS ONE 6:e17351. 2011
    ..This signal, which transcends the boundaries of classical sleep stages, could potentially be used for real-time feedback to novel, adaptive drug delivery systems for inducing sleep...

    John W Winkelman
    Division of Sleep Medicine, Department of Medicine, Brigham and Women s Hospital, Boston, MA 02115, USA
    Sleep Med 11:576-82. 2010
    ..Loss of HV in PI might be due to chronic hyperarousal and/or chronic sleep debt. The aim of this study was to replicate the earlier pilot report while employing a larger sample, more rigorous screening criteria, and objective sleep data...
