BACKGROUND
Age-related sleep disturbances may be caused by changes in the circadian rhythm, either by phase shifting and/or by a reduction of its amplitude. This may result in less nocturnal sleep and less wakefulness during the day.
MATERIAL AND METHODS
The article is based on our own research and on relevant studies and reviews in this field.
RESULTS AND INTERPRETATION
Bright light treatment may alter the phase and strengthen the existing circadian rhythm in patients with insomnia, thus creating a clearer distinction between night and day. It is reported that bright light treatment in the morning for patients with dementia may improve sleep maintenance.
背景
与年龄相关的睡眠障碍可能由昼夜节律的变化引起，这种变化可能是相位偏移和/或振幅减小。这可能导致夜间睡眠减少和白天清醒时间减少。
材料与方法
本文基于我们自己的研究以及该领域的相关研究和综述。
结果与解读
强光疗法可能会改变失眠患者的相位并增强现有的昼夜节律，从而更清晰地区分白天和黑夜。据报道，对痴呆症患者在早晨进行强光疗法可能会改善睡眠维持情况。
