Sentences with phrase «sleep loss alters»

It is also possible that sleep loss alters brain mechanisms involved in nonhomeostatic food intake (e.g., mood, comfort, reduced eating restraint).

Studies now show that people who are sleep deprived tend to eat more fat - rich foods, simple carbohydrates, and fewer vegetables, possibly because sleep loss alters chemical signals connected to metabolism and hunger.

Engineered mice with decreased numbers of 5 - HT neurons and rats or piglets with decreased activity secondary to 5 - HT1A autoreceptor stimulation have diminished ventilator responses to carbon dioxide, dysfunctional heat production and heat - loss mechanisms, and altered sleep architecture.43 These studies linked SIDS risk factors with possible pathophysiology.

The prone or side sleep position can increase the risk of rebreathing expired gases, resulting in hypercapnia and hypoxia.54, — , 57 The prone position also increases the risk of overheating by decreasing the rate of heat loss and increasing body temperature compared with infants sleeping supine.58, 59 Recent evidence suggests that prone sleeping alters the autonomic control of the infant cardiovascular system during sleep, particularly at 2 to 3 months of age, 60 and can result in decreased cerebral oxygenation.61 The prone position places infants at high risk of SIDS (odds ratio [OR]: 2.3 — 13.1).62, — , 66 However, recent studies have demonstrated that the SIDS risks associated with side and prone position are similar in magnitude (OR: 2.0 and 2.6, respectively) 63 and that the population - attributable risk reported for side sleep position is higher than that for prone position.65, 67 Furthermore, the risk of SIDS is exceptionally high for infants who are placed on their side and found on their stomach (OR: 8.7).63 The side sleep position is inherently unstable, and the probability of an infant rolling to the prone position from the side sleep position is significantly greater than rolling prone from the back.65, 68 Infants who are unaccustomed to the prone position and are placed prone for sleep are also at greater risk than those usually placed prone (adjusted OR: 8.7 — 45.4).63, 69,70 Therefore, it is critically important that every caregiver use the supine sleep position for every sleep period.

As mentioned above, prolonged sleep deprivation in normal subjects induces altered states of consciousness (often described as «microsleep»), numerous brief episodes of overwhelming sleep, and loss of cognitive and motor functions.

In mice, the anti-angiogenic mTOR inhibitor everolimus did not alter cognitive functions but led to weight loss and modification of cell metabolism in brain regions involved in sleep / wake cycle or food intake, likely connected to fatigue.

«It can lead to many undesirable symptoms such as «burnout» and prolonged fatigue, muscle and joint injuries, poor sleep quality, loss of motivation, irritability, altered immune and hormonal function, reduced appetite, and decreased bone density.»

Sub-health can be a chronic condition, usually indicated by low energy, loss of vitality, altered sleeping patterns, and increased incidence of viral infections.

Signs of this condition in dogs include confusion or disorientation, irritability, altered sleep / wake cycles, nighttime restlessness, appetite loss, and loss of housetraining.
