Homeostatic sleep and body temperature responses to acute sleep deprivation are preserved following chronic sleep restriction in rats
Bibliographic record
Abstract
Chronic sleep insufficiency is common in our society and has negative cognitive and health impacts. It can also alter sleep regulation, yet whether it affects subsequent homeostatic responses to acute sleep loss is unclear. We assessed sleep and thermoregulatory responses to acute sleep deprivation before and after a '3/1' chronic sleep restriction protocol in adult male Wistar rats. The 3/1 protocol consisted of continuous cycles of wheel rotations (3 h on/1 h off) for 4 days. Sleep latency in a 2-h multiple sleep latency test starting 26 h post-3/1 was unchanged, whereas non-rapid eye movement sleep (NREMS) and associated electroencephalogram delta power (a measure of sleep need) over a 24-h period beginning 54 h post-3/1 were reduced, compared to respective pre-3/1 baseline levels. However, in response to acute sleep deprivation (6 h by 'gentle handling') starting 78 h post-3/1, the compensatory rebounds in NREMS and rapid eye movement sleep (REMS) amounts and NREMS delta power were unaltered. Body temperature increased progressively across the 3/1 protocol and returned to baseline levels on the second day post-3/1. The acute sleep deprivation also increased body temperature, followed by a decline below baseline levels, with no difference between before and after 3/1 sleep restriction. Non-sleep-restricted control rats showed responses to acute sleep deprivation similar to those observed in the sleep-restricted animals. These results suggest that the process of sleep homeostasis is altered on the third recovery day after a 4-day 3/1 sleep restriction protocol, whereas subsequent homeostatic sleep and temperature responses to brief sleep deprivation are not affected.

Full frame machine prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. The Gemma side is a direct model label for every work in the frame, read from the title-only record. The Codex side is a classifier learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and calibrated to design-weighted sample rates; fields without enough sample support carry no Codex call. Candidate is the union of the two sides; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from itClassification
machine, unvalidatedMachine predicted; a candidate call from one source (direct Gemma or distilled Codex), not a consensus.
