          Trouble Falling Asleep at Bedtime or in the Middle of the Night? It Could Impact Your Risk for Developing Dementia

          A new study reveals people who have trouble falling asleep within 30 minutes and those who use sleep medications are at increased risk of developing dementia as they age. However, those who have trouble falling back asleep after they woke up during the night were less likely to develop dementia.

          Treatment Recommendations for People Who Act Out Their Dreams While Asleep

          REM sleep behavior disorder, or parasomnia, affects more than 80 million people worldwide. The disorder causes sufferers to experience nightmare-like violent dreams. Sufferers act on their dreams while sleeping, often resulting in violent or dangerous sleep behaviors and injuries. Researchers propose new guidelines, including medical and pharmacological recommendations, to help curb symptoms of parasomnia and promote healthier sleep.

          Why PTSD Patients Relive Highly Charged Fear Memories in Sleep

          In people with PTSD, during REM sleep norepinephrine and serotonin levels remain high, reducing the brain's ability to inhibit fear-expression neurons through neural rhythms sent between the prefrontal cortex and amygdala. Those with PTSD require higher frequency rhythms to extinguish fear memories. Researchers say unlocking the higher frequencies via therapies could help to restore quality sleep in those with PTSD.
