Light interventions have been investigated for treating sleep disturbances in older adults; however, findings are mixed. This proof-of-concept trial investigated the effect of blue-enriched ambient light on electroencephalographic (EEG) sleep in older adults with self-reported poor sleep. Twelve participants (65.6 ± 8....

Introduction The basal forebrain is an early site of pathology in Alzheimer's disease (AD). Within this region, the nucleus basalis of Meynert (NbM) provides the primary cholinergic input to the neocortex and supports cortical activation during rapid eye movement (REM) sleep. REM electroencephalography (EEG) slowing is...

Global warming is intensifying exposure to extreme heat, creating a growing but under-recognised threat to brain health in later life. Older adults, particularly those with or at risk of neurodegenerative disease, are uniquely susceptible because ageing and neuropathology can impair thermoregulation, sleep, vascular an...

Overall, white matter connectivity of the anterior thalamic radiation and superior longitudinal fasciculus was not robustly associated with sleep spindle density or slow oscillatory power in this at-risk cohort, but superior longitudinal fasciculus II connectivity may differentially relate to spindle amplitude in mild...
