Sedative doses of alcohol consumption paradoxically cause long-term sleep deficits in humans. A study in Drosophila reveals similar sleep deficits in flies following ethanol sedation and uncovers a subset of cholinergic neurons that mediate this effect.

Objective: Young children at-risk for attention-deficit/hyperactivity disorder (ADHD) often experience sleep problems, which may exacerbate ADHD symptoms and related impairment. Yet, little is known about modifiable factors associated with the maintenance of sleep problems. This study examined the relationships among parenting practices, behavioral self-regulation skills, and sleep functioning in young children at-risk for ADHD.

Emotion regulation deficits are a hallmark of adolescent depression, and sleep greatly impacts emotion regulation. Initial data indicate acute mood benefits of slow-wave sleep deprivation (SWSD) in depressed adults, but it is unclear whether this may occur through improvement in emotion regulation. In addition, this has not been tested experimentally in adolescent depression.

Type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) is a common metabolic disease that can lead to a wide range of complications and impose a significant economic burden to society. Frailty is a disease associated with the accumulation of health deficits that may affect the quality of life of T2DM patients. This Mendelian randomization (MR) study explores the bidirectional causality between T2DM and frailty.

The ILAE Neuroimaging Task Force publishes educational case reports that highlight basic aspects of neuroimaging in epilepsy, consistent with ILAE's educational mission. In patients with drug-resistant focal epilepsy who are candidates for surgical intervention, the identification of structural abnormalities is a strong predictor of favorable postoperative seizure outcomes. When conventional imaging is insufficient, the integration of multimodal neuroimaging data with structural, metabolic, and functional imaging modalities is often helpful.
