چکیده
The introduction to this series of papers20 emphasized that sleep deprivation studies are essentially correlational. We administer stimuli that produce the responses of sleep reduction and the responses of physiological or behavioral change. These are correlated responses. We cannot confidently interpret the physiological and behavioral changes as effects of the sleep loss until we can discount the plausibility of other putative mediators of the physiological and behavioral change that are produced by the experimental situation. Two alternative mediators have been suggested: loss of circadian rhythm and stress.

Effects of REM sleep deprivation during pregnancy on spatial learning of adult male offspring of rats
Introduction: There are several evidences that show various environmental stresses during pregnancy, affect physiological behavior of the offspring. In this study the effects of REM (Rapid Eye Movement) sleep deprivation of pregnant rats on spatial learning of adult male offspring by Morris water maze were investigated. Methods: Water tank technique was used for inducing REM sleep deprivatio...
متن کاملThe Effect of Hydroalcoholic Rosmarinus Officinalis (Rosemary) on Memory Retention Deficit in Young Offspring Rat Induced by Maternal Sleep Deprivation
Background: Maternal sleep deprivation is known to reduce neurogenesis in the hippocampus during pregnancy. Also, it damages and impairs cognitive functions such as learning and memory in the neonates. Objectives: Rosmarinus officinalis (rosemary) extract can play an important role in the treatment of cognitive impairments by inhibiting oxidative stress. This study aimed to investigate the r...

Abstract Background: Nowadays, working long hours and shift work are inevitable, even though these working schedules are associated with several physical and mental effects. Gastrointestinal complaints are common among their physical effects. Recent studies have shown organoprotective effect of melatonin in gastrointestinal tract. In this study we investigated gastric mucosal damage due to par...
متن کاملSpatial Learning Paradigm Can Increase Post-Stress Total Time of REM Sleep in Immobilized Rats
Background & Objective: Stress contributes to sleep-wake behavior in all animals. It seems that factors such as learning and memory processes can improve sleep disorders. Therefore, the present study was conducted to determine the effects of stress and learning (spatial memory) on total post-stress rapid-eye-movement (REM), non-rapid-eye-movement (NREM) and waking time in rats. Materials & Met...
متن کاملInvestigation of the effect of unusual work shifts and sleep deprivation on cognitive performance in workers in the automotive industry
Background and aims: The circadian rhythm is one the most important biological rhythms that regulates the sleep-wake cycle and repeats every 24 hours roughly. This 24-hour cycle includes physiological and behavioral rhythms like sleep cycle. Any disruptions in the body’s natural rhythms can cause many problems, such as drowsiness, sleep deprivation, reduced physical activity, and mental functio...
