Abstract

Why investigate depression and schizophrenia during sleep? Because studying spontaneous neural activity during sleep minimises factors related to waking such as attention, cognitive behaviour and any presence of active symptoms. Sleep architecture also activates particular neural networks and interacts with cardiovascular activity, which can be compared between depressed and schizophrenic patients, healthy and sleep disorders.
