The sensory-motor account of spatial processing posits that the dorsal brain regions (e.g., inferior parietal lobule, IPL) mediate sensory-motor integration required during “where” responding. An ...

Sleep deficiency is associated with atrophy of the inferior parietal region of the brain, according to a study published online March 31 in the Journal of Clini ...

These findings provide some evidence that reduced slow wave sleep (SWS) and rapid eye movement sleep (REM) may contribute to brain atrophy, thereby increasing the risk of Alzheimer disease (AD).

“Our findings provide preliminary evidence that reduced neuroactivity during sleep may contribute to brain atrophy, thereby ...

particularly the inferior parietal region, which is known to undergo early structural changes in Alzheimer's disease. The results were adjusted for potential confounders including demographic ...

Associations seen between less short wave sleep and rapid eye movement sleep with smaller inferior parietal region volumes. HealthDay News — Sleep deficiency is associated with atrophy of the ...

Associations seen between less short wave sleep and rapid eye movement sleep with smaller inferior parietal region volumes. HealthDay News — Sleep deficiency is associated with atrophy of the inferior ...

Researchers from the Yale School of Medicine found that individuals who spend less time in slow-wave and rapid eye movement (REM) sleep had smaller volumes in brain regions linked to Alzheimer's. This ...
