Cognitive benefits of sleep and their loss due to sleep deprivation
@article{Ellenbogen2005CognitiveBO, title={Cognitive benefits of sleep and their loss due to sleep deprivation}, author={Jeffrey M. Ellenbogen}, journal={Neurology}, year={2005}, volume={64}, pages={E25 - E27} }
When Nobel laureate Otto Loewi discovered the chemical basis of neurotransmission in 1921, he attributed his experimental design to an insight he made during sleep.1 In recent years, scientific discoveries have begun to empirically validate the hypothetical role of sleep in cognitive processes such as insight formation and memory consolidation. Yet these new and important scientific findings—that sleep benefits cognition—have gained little attention in the debates over regulating resident work…

Intervention studies in preclinical and early stages of α-synucleinopathies are needed to increase the understanding of the underlying pathomechanisms and may also provide important inroads to help clarify whether sleep disturbances are secondary to the neurodegenerative process or also contribute to disease exacerbation.

The unique contributions of wake and sleep in the development of different forms of consolidation are described, and it is shown that waking reactivation can turn a previously consolidated memory back into a labile state requiring subsequent reconsolidation.
Consolidation during sleep of perceptual learning of spoken language

A role of sleep is shown in the consolidation of a naturalistic spoken-language learning task that produces generalization of phonological categories across different acoustic patterns, indicating that representations and mappings associated with generalization are refined and stabilized during sleep.
