Elevated beta activity in the nighttime sleep and multiple sleep latency electroencephalograms of chronic insomnia patients
2022
Overview
Aims: To examine the 24-h hyperarousal hypothesis of insomnia using electroencephalographic (EEG) spectral analysis of overnight polysomnography (PSG) and daytime multiple sleep latency tests (MSLTs). Methods: Standard PSG and MSLT were recorded in 31 chronic insomniacs (CIs) (21 females, mean age 36.19) and in 21 normal controls (NCs) (18 females, mean age 34.76). EEG spectral analyses were conducted and relative power was obtained for each sleep stage during PSG and each session during MSLTs. Subsequently, CIs were subdivided based on sleep efficiency (SE < or ≥ 85%) or mean sleep latency (MSL) of MSLT (< or ≥ 15min), and beta power was compared among NCs and CIs subgroups. General liner regression analyses of beta power and PSG parameters were conducted. Results: CIs had significantly greater beta power in nighttime W, N1, N2, NREM and in total overnight and in MSLT sessions compared with NCs. CIs with lower PSG-SE or longer MSLT-MSL showed higher beta power at nighttime. Compared with NCs, increased beta power was limited to CIs with lower PSG-SE or longer MSLT-MSL during MSLT sessions. In all subjects, total daytime beta was positively correlated to total overnight beta and MSL, total overnight beta was negatively related to SE. In CIs, total daytime beta and total overnight beta were positively correlated. Conclusions: Our results support the hypothesis of 24-h cortical hyperarousal in insomnia. We conclude that 24-h cortical hyperarousal is clearly present in insomnia and is greater in insomnia with objective findings.
