Sleep fragmentation exacerbates executive function impairments induced by protracted low dose rate neutron exposure.
CONCLUSION: Protracted low dose and low dose rate neutron exposures impairs executive functions in a high percentage of rats that were normally rested, however further detriments in performance become evident when the rats are subjected to sleep fragmentation.
