    Description

    This data was generated from a two-arm randomized controlled trial. The study evaluated the effectiveness of a culturally and linguistically tailored telephone-delivered intervention to promote adherence to physician-recommended sleep apnea assessment and treatment among black patients with metabolic syndrome. Outcomes of interest (diabetes mellitus, hypertension, and dyslipidemia) were assessed at...

    Description

    This data contains recordings from the rat frontal cortex (brain regions mPFC, OFC, ACC, and M2) during wake-sleep episodes where at least 7 minutes of wakefulness are followed by 20 minutes of sleep. The data was recorded using silicon probe electrodes in the frontal cortices of male Long Evans rats between 4-7 months of age during no specific behavior, task or stimulus. The animal was left alone...

    Enhancing Neuro Imaging Genetics through Meta-Analysis Consortium
    Description

    The Enhancing Neuroimaging Genetics through Meta-Analysis (ENIGMA) Consortium is a global project originating from University of Southern California which unites researchers across the fields of imaging genomics, neurology, and psychiatry to understand brain structure and function. ENIGMA consists of 50 active working groups which are organized into four major research cores: Genomics, Disease, Protocol...

    Description

    Hypothalamic melanin-concentrating hormone (MCH) polypeptide contributes to regulating energy homeostasis, sleep, and memory. However, the mechanistic bases of its effects are still unclear. This study found that the physiological mechanism underlying the functional role of MCH signaling in projections to the dorsolateral septum (dLS), which is a region involved in routing hippocampal firing rhythms...

    Description

    Brain temperature shows wide variations across brain states, which fluctuates between sleep and active waking. The frequency of hippocampal sharp wave ripples (SPW-Rs) is also different in the sleeping and waking animals. However, why ripple frequencies in the waking and sleeping brain are different is still unknown. This study examined the correlation between brain temperature variations and the frequency...

    Description

    Experiences need to be labeled during learning for further consolidation, but brain mechanisms that select experiences for lasting memory are unknown. This study determined that successive traversals in the maze were tracked by continuously drifting populations of neurons by combining large-scale neural recordings with a novel application of dimensionality reduction techniques. They recorded from many...
