Article Synopsis
- The study explored the effectiveness of Cognitive Behavioural Therapy for Nightmares (CBT-N) and targeted lucidity reactivation (TLR) in adults with narcolepsy who experience frequent nightmares.
- Participants showed a significant reduction in nightmare frequency (from 8.38 to 2.25 per week) and improved overall sleep quality, with notable improvements in nightmare severity and related symptoms such as sleep paralysis.
- The findings suggest that CBT-N and TLR could be beneficial treatments for managing nightmares in individuals with narcolepsy, highlighting the need for more focused clinical trials in this area.

Peripheral artery disease (PAD) is a condition with increasing global prevalence and high risk of adverse patient outcomes. This study seeks to understand the adequacy of disease understanding in patients with PAD.

We hypothesize that an interaction between the C-terminal arm and the central coiled coil of the herpes simplex virus 1 (HSV-1) gB ectodomain is critical for fusion.
