    Abstract Circadian and diurnal variation in cerebral blood flow directly contributes to the diurnal variation in the risk of stroke, either through factors that trigger stroke or due to impaired compensatory mechanisms. Cerebral blood flow results from the integration of systemic hemodynamics, including heart rate, cardiac output, and blood pressure, with cerebrovascular regulatory mechanisms, including cerebrovascular reactivity, autoregulation, and neurovascular coupling. We review the evidence for the circadian and diurnal variation in each of these mechanisms and their integration, from the detailed evidence for mechanisms underlying the nocturnal nadir and morning surge in blood pressure to identifying limited available evidence for circadian and diurnal variation in cerebrovascular compensatory mechanisms. We, thus, identify key systemic hemodynamic factors related to the diurnal variation in the risk of stroke but particularly identify the need for further research focused on cerebrovascular regulatory mechanisms.

    Abstract Objective: Children with Down syndrome (DS) may experience changes in sleep architecture (i.e., different sleep stages) that then affect waketime functioning, including learning, mood, and disruptive behavior. For designing and testing interventions, it is important to document any differences in sleep architecture in children with DS with and without co-occurring diagnoses, including neuropsychiatric diagnoses and obstructive sleep apnea (OSA).
    Methods: A retrospective cohort study was performed at Massachusetts General Hospital for children and adolescents with DS who underwent polysomnography (PSG) between August 2016 and July 2022. Patient data collected from the electronic medical record included diagnoses, age at PSG, and PSG report. Statistical analysis included unpaired T tests to test hypotheses about differences in sleep architecture within age groups, and differences between children with DS and a co-occurring diagnosis. One way ANOVA was used to determine statistical significance of OSA severity within patients with DS.
    Results: When compared by age group, those with DS had negative changes in sleep architecture (e.g., less sleep and more wake) when compared to normative data. Within this cohort, having a co-occurring diagnosis of autism resulted in further, negative effects on sleep architecture. 89% of those with DS had diagnosed OSA but only those with severe OSA experienced negative effects on sleep architecture.
    Conclusion: Age is an important covariate when studying the sleep of children with DS and neurotypical children. Studies are needed to test whether minimizing the observed differences in sleep architecture will translate to improved learning, mood, and behavioral outcomes, and how treating OSA affects sleep architecture.

    Abstract Cortisol is a neuroendocrine hormone of the hypothalamus-pituitary-adrenal (HPA) axis secreted from adrenal glands in response to stimulation by adrenocorticotropic hormone (ACTH) from the anterior pituitary and corticotropin releasing hormone (CRH) from the hypothalamus. Cortisol has multiple functionalities in maintaining bodily homeostasis - including anti-inflammatory influences - through its diurnal secretion pattern (which has been studied extensively); its secretion is also increased in response to major traumatic events such as surgery. Due to the adverse health consequences of an abnormal immune response, it is crucial to understand the effect of cortisol in modulating inflammation. To address this physiological issue, we characterize the secretion of cortisol using a high temporal resolution dataset of ten patients undergoing coronary arterial bypass grafting (CABG) surgery, in comparison with a control group not undergoing surgery. We find that cortisol exhibits different pulsatile dynamics in those undergoing cardiac surgery compared to the control subjects. We also summarize the causality of cortisol's relationship with different cytokines (which are one type of inflammatory markers) by performing Granger causality analysis.Clinical relevance- This work documents time-varying patterns of the HPA axis hormone cortisol in the inflammatory response to cardiac surgery and may eventually help improve patients' prognosis post-surgery (or in other conditions) by enabling early detection of an abnormal cortisol or inflammatory response and enabling patient specific remedial interventions.

    Abstract The field of "circadian medicine" is a recent addition to chronobiology and sleep research efforts. It represents a logical step arising from the increasing insights into the circadian system and its interactions with life in urbanised societies; applying these insights to the health/disease balance at home and in the medical practice (outpatient) and clinic (inpatient). Despite its fast expansion and proliferating research efforts, circadian medicine lacks a formal framework to categorise the many observations describing interactions among the circadian system, sleep, and the health/disease balance. A good framework allows us to categorise observations and then assign them to one or more components with hypothesised interactions. Such assignments can lead to experiments that document causal (rather than correlational) relationships and move from describing observations to discovering mechanisms. This review details such a proposed formal framework for circadian medicine and will hopefully trigger discussion among our colleagues, so that the framework can be improved and expanded. As the basis of the framework for circadian medicine, we define "circadian health" and how it links to general health. We then define interactions among the circadian system, sleep, and the health/disease balance and put the framework into the context of the literature with examples from six domains of health/disease balance: fertility, cancer, immune system, mental health, cardiovascular, and metabolism.

    Abstract Chronic circadian disruption (CCD), such as occurs during rotating shiftwork, and insufficient sleep are each independently associated with poor health outcomes, including obesity and glucose intolerance. A potential mechanism for poor health is increased energy intake (i.e., eating), particularly during the circadian night, when the physiological response to energy intake is altered. However, the contributions of CCD and insufficient sleep to subjective hunger, appetite, food preference, and appetitive hormones are not clear. To disentangle the influences of these factors, we studied seventeen healthy young adults in a 32-day in-laboratory study designed to distribute sleep, wakefulness, and energy intake equally across all phases of the circadian cycle, thereby imposing CCD. Participants were randomized to the Control (1:2 sleep:wake ratio,

    Abstract The circadian system is critical to timing biological functions in anticipation of daily environmental light changes, but much previous work on the development of molecular control inputs to shift the phase of the circadian system has applied model predictive control (MPC) without considering expected environmental light changes. We augment the MPC algorithm to develop an anticipatory control algorithm, which has advantages over MPC in achieving scheduled phase shifts (as occurs with jet lag and shiftwork). We further extend the algorithm in a model switching control scheme to account for changes in the light environment. Taken together, these two enhancements to the standard MPC framework allow for better control of the circadian oscillator in more realistic environments by anticipating environmental light changes.

    Abstract Background: Gunshots affect those directly involved in an incident and those in the surrounding community. The community-level impact of nighttime gunshots, which may be particularly disruptive to the sleep of nearby community members, is unknown.
    Objective: Our aim is to estimate the number of people potentially affected by nighttime gunshots and the relationship between nighttime gunshots and median household income in the USA.
    Design: We collected publicly available data on the timing and location of gunshots in six U.S. cities (Baltimore, MD; Boston, MA; Washington, D.C.; New York, NY; Philadelphia, PA; and Portland, OR) from 2015 to 2021. We then analyzed the data by computing rate ratios (RRs) to compare the frequency of gunshots during nighttime hours (6:00 pm to 5:59 am) versus daytime hours (6:00 am to 5:59 pm). Additionally, we used geospatial mapping to create choropleth maps to visualize the variation in nighttime gunshot density across cities. We estimated, using city-wide population, person-nights potentially impacted by the sound of gunshots within areas of 0.2- (low) and 0.5-mile (high) radius. Finally, for five of six cities where data on median household income were available by census tract, we built nonlinear regression models to estimate the relationship between the number of nighttime gunshots and median household income.
    Key results: We analyzed 72,236 gunshots. Gunshots were more common during the nighttime than daytime (overall RR = 2.5). Analyses demonstrated that the low estimates for the mean annual number of person-nights impacted by nighttime gunshots were 0.4 million in Baltimore and Portland, 1.3 million in Philadelphia, 1.6 million in Boston, 2.9 million in New York City, and 5.9 million in Washington. The number of nighttime gunshots was inversely related to median household income.
    Conclusions: Nighttime gunshots are prevalent, particularly in low-income neighborhoods, and may have under-recognized effects on the surrounding community.
