0267 Substance Use and Sleep Issues: Findings from an Internet Gaming Addiction Study on Jamaican Adolescents Open
Introduction Addiction and sleep disorders are a problem due to its impact on sleep physiology. We evaluated substance use, gaming addiction, and sleep issues among adolescents. Methods Data are from a 3-stage stratified cluster-sample of …

Vulnerability to incest – Findings from a comparative single-case study of the onset of intrafamilial child sexual abuse Open
Previous research about intrafamilial child sexual abuse was not able to identify specific risk factors that distinguish this unique subgroup from other sexual offending subgroups. In comparison to other groups of sexual offenders, men con…

Home-EEG assessment of possible compensatory mechanisms for sleep disruption in highly irregular shift workers – The ANCHOR study Open
Study objectives While poor sleep quality has been related to increased risk of Alzheimer’s disease, long-time shift workers (maritime pilots) did not manifest evidence of early Alzheimer’s disease in a recent study. We explored two hypoth…

Long‐term effects of work‐related sleep disruption on cognitive function and brain amyloid‐β load Open
Background Recent evidence indicates that disrupted sleep could contribute to the development of Alzheimer’s disease (AD) by influencing the production and/or clearance of the amyloid‐β protein. Studies however are limited to acute, short‐…

Shift‐work‐related sleep disruption and the risk of decline in cognitive function: The CRUISE Study Open
Acute total sleep deprivation and partial sleep deprivation have negative impacts on cognitive performance. Studies in subjects who regularly experience sleep loss, however, are rare and often restricted to examination of internal sleeping…

Supplementary Material for: Long-Term Occupational Sleep Loss and Post-Retirement Cognitive Decline or Dementia Open
Introduction: Recent evidence suggests that poor sleep is a risk factor that contributes to the development of Alzheimer’s disease (AD). Most studies have focused on short-term effects of sleep deprivation on cognitive function, whereas lo…

Sleep-Cognition Hypothesis In maritime Pilots, what is the effect of long-term work-related poor sleep on cognition and amyloid accumulation in healthy middle-aged maritime pilots: methodology of a case–control study Open
Introduction Evidence indicates a bidirectional relationship between poor sleep and Alzheimer’s disease (AD). While AD may lead to disruption of normal sleep, poor sleep in itself may play a causal role in the development of AD by influenc…

[P2–166]: THE EFFECT OF CHRONIC SLEEP DEPRIVATION ON COGNITION AND BRAIN STRUCTURE IN HEALTHY, MIDDLE‐AGED MEN Open
Recent evidence shows a bi-directional relation between poor sleep and the development of Alzheimer's disease (AD). Sleep disorders are more frequent and severe in AD patients compared to healthy aging people, in turn poor sleep may play a…
