Summary
This study investigates the circadian rhythm and sleep complaints in individuals with spinal cord injury (SCI) by examining diurnal saliva melatonin and cortisol levels, activity measurements, and subjective sleep quality.
Categories
Sleep and insomnia: The paper investigates sleep complaints in individuals with spinal cord injury, examining factors such as melatonin and cortisol levels, and subjective sleep quality.
Cognitive function and memory: The paper discusses the role of melatonin and cortisol, hormones that are crucial for cognitive function and memory, in the sleep patterns of individuals with spinal cord injury.
Hormone regulation: The study examines the diurnal saliva melatonin and cortisol levels in individuals with spinal cord injury, providing insights into their hormone regulation.
