Deficiency of orexin signaling during sleep is involved in abnormal REM sleep architecture in narcolepsy
Here, we determined the activity dynamics of orexin neurons during sleep that suppress the abnormal REM sleep architecture of narcolepsy.

Evaluation of a device-agnostic approach to predict sleep from raw accelerometry data collected by Apple Watch Series 7, Garmin Vivoactive 4, and ActiGraph GT9X Link in children with sleep disruptions
This study demonstrates that raw acceleration data from consumer wearable devices has the potential to be harnessed to predict sleep in children.
