[PDF][PDF] Sleep in university students prior to and during COVID-19 Stay-at-Home orders

KP Wright, SK Linton, D Withrow, L Casiraghi… - Current biology, 2020 - cell.com
Sleep health has multiple dimensions including duration, regularity, timing, and quality [1–4].
The Coronavirus 2019 (COVID-19) outbreak led to Stay-at-Home orders and Social …

The times they're a-changing: effects of circadian desynchronization on physiology and disease

DA Golombek, LP Casiraghi, PV Agostino… - Journal of physiology …, 2013 - Elsevier
Circadian rhythms are endogenous and need to be continuously entrained (synchronized)
with the environment. Entrainment includes both coupling internal oscillators to external …

[HTML][HTML] Circadian and metabolic effects of light: implications in weight homeostasis and health

SA Plano, LP Casiraghi, P Garcia Moro… - Frontiers in …, 2017 - frontiersin.org
Daily interactions between the hypothalamic circadian clock at the suprachiasmatic nucleus
(SCN) and peripheral circadian oscillators regulate physiology and metabolism to set …

Moonstruck sleep: Synchronization of human sleep with the moon cycle under field conditions

L Casiraghi, I Spiousas, GP Dunster, K McGlothlen… - Science …, 2021 - science.org
Before the availability of artificial light, moonlight was the only source of light sufficient to
stimulate nighttime activity; still, evidence for the modulation of sleep timing by lunar phases is …

Effects of chronic forced circadian desynchronization on body weight and metabolism in male mice

LP Casiraghi, A Alzamendi… - Physiological …, 2016 - Wiley Online Library
Metabolic functions are synchronized by the circadian clock setting daily patterns of food
intake, nutrient delivery, and behavioral activity. Here, we study the impact of chronic jet‐lag ( …

Forced desynchronization of activity rhythms in a model of chronic jet lag in mice

LP Casiraghi, GA Oda, JJ Chiesa… - Journal of biological …, 2012 - journals.sagepub.com
We studied locomotor activity rhythms of C57/Bl6 mice under a chronic jet lag (CJL) protocol
(ChrA 6/2 ), which consisted of 6-hour phase advances of the light-dark schedule (LD) every …

Access to electric light is associated with delays of the dim‐light melatonin onset in a traditionally hunter‐gatherer Toba/Qom community

LP Casiraghi, SA Plano… - Journal of pineal …, 2020 - Wiley Online Library
Key to the transition of humans from nomadic hunting‐gathering groups to industrialized and
highly urbanized societies was the creation of protected and artificially lit environments that …

The circadian molecular clock in the suprachiasmatic nucleus is necessary but not sufficient for fear entrainment

…, LE Salazar Leon, LP Casiraghi… - Proceedings of the …, 2024 - National Acad Sciences
We show that nocturnal aversive stimuli presented to mice while they are eating and drinking
outside of their safe nest can entrain circadian behaviors, leading to a shift toward daytime …

Late evening electric light exposure is associated with low sleep regularity in adolescents living in rural areas

…, CRC Moreno, CVM Azevedo, LP Casiraghi… - Sleep Health, 2023 - Elsevier
In this study, we tested the prediction that sleep regularity would be lower in adolescents
exposed to late evening electric light (LEEL) than in those without exposure to it. The Sleep …

Effect of experimental diabetic retinopathy on the non-image-forming visual system

…, N Belforte, D Dorfman, LP Casiraghi… - Chronobiology …, 2013 - Taylor & Francis
Diabetic retinopathy is a leading cause of blindness. Intrinsically photosensitive retinal
ganglion cells (ipRGCs), which express the photopigment melanopsin, are involved in non-image-…
