Obstructive sleep apnea is associated with cognitive impairment in minor ischemic stroke
CONCLUSIONS: The findings suggest that OSA has significant effects on cognition impairment in patients with minor ischemic stroke and that hypoxemia may be a potential pathophysiological mechanism of OSA-induced cognitive impairment.PMID:35305233 | DOI:10.1007/s11325-022-02575-5

Use of targeted memory reactivation enhances skill performance during a nap and enhances declarative memory during wake in healthy young adults.
Abstract Sleep is an important component of motor memory consolidation and learning, providing a critical tool to enhance training and rehabilitation. Following initial skill acquisition, memory consolidation is largely a result of non-rapid eye movement sleep over either a full night or a nap. Targeted memory reactivation is one method used to enhance this critical process, which involves the pairing of an external cue with task performance at the time of initial motor skill acquisition, followed by replay of the same cue during sleep. Application of targeted memory reactivation during sleep leads to increased fu...
