Description and Table of Contents

Description

A study of the roles of the sleep-wake cycle, the circadian clock and the environment on endocrine rhythms. It examines areas such as the process underlying sleep regulation, the effect of seasonal changes in day length, the effects of hormones on sleep and the modulation of glucose regulation.

Table of Contents

  • Circadian rhythms
  • processes underlying sleep regulation
  • effect of seasonal changes in day length on human neuroendocrine function
  • effects of hormones on sleep
  • ultradian rhythms in hydromineral hormones
  • the physiology and pharmacology of melatonin in humans
  • therapeutic applications of melatonin and related compounds
  • alterations of circadian rhythmicity and sleep in ageing - endocrine consequences
  • endocrine secretions under abnormal light-dark cycles and in the blind
  • sleep and circadian disturbances in shift work - strategies for their management
  • gonadotropin pulsations across development
  • interaction between menstrual cyclicity and gondotropin pulsatility
  • central nervous system control of thyrotropin secretion during sleep and wakefulness
  • temporal profiles and clinical significance of pulsatile insulin secretion
  • ultradian pulsatility of plasma glucose and insulin secretion rate - circadian and sleep modulation
  • the roles of time of day and sleep quality in modulating glucose regulation - clinical implications.
