Nueva tendencia en Instagram: hospitales y residencias de ancianos en Alemania muestran cómo dependen de los inmigrantes que trabajan, cómo son parte del país, amigos, colegas. “Seríamos más pobres sin ellos. Se los aprecia. Son nosotros.”
Ever wonder what is going on in the brain of sleep walkers? Sleep disorders and especially sleepwalkers are thought to potentially have a higher risk of Parkinson's and neurodegenerative disorders. Check out the functional connectivity and metabolic brain alterations shown by Greta Mainieri and colleagues in their latest paper in the European Journal of Neurology @EurJournalNeuro.
Key Points:
- The authors discuss the 'amazing intermediate state' between wakefulness and deep sleep.
- They key in on what may be going in in incomplete awakenings and in sleepwalkers.
- They looked at 15 folks with disorders of awakening.
- There was an altered resting-state functional connectivity in the sensory motor network.
- They observed more connectivity in "opercular cortex, the precuneus, the occipital pole, and the lingual gyrus."
- They identified posterior cingulate cortex connectivity as important to other cortical regions.
- Fascinating was the loss of glutamine shown by spectroscopy.
My take: We need to pay more attention to sleep especially in neurodegenerative disorders. I love that this study focused on understanding what 'may be underpinning' changes leading to arousal states like sleep walking. Could the sensory motor network enhance motor circuit activation leading to sleep walking? Are the brains of sleep walkers wired differently w/ the cingulate connections representing a 'trait.' Why do sleep walkers fail to reach complete awareness? Healthcare practitioners when you write on your script h.s. or horā somnī, you are focusing on the hour of sleep or the bedtime. What happens after bedtime may however be crucially important to pay attention to.

En el Día Mundial de Toma de Conciencia del Abuso y Maltrato en la Vejez, recordemos que todas las personas mayores merecen respeto y cuidado. Protejamos sus derechos y dignidad todos los días.
#NoAlMaltrato
La diversidad en el envejecimiento va más allá de la edad. Las personas mayores también tienen diferentes orientaciones sexuales. Reconocer esta pluralidad es esencial para una visión inclusiva y respetuosa del envejecimiento. #EnvejecimientoDiverso
