Type in a word or phrase to search, you can also type in Article ID's separated by commas:

Sleep medicine is a medical specialty or subspecialty devoted to the diagnosis and therapy of sleep disturbances and disorders. From the middle of the 20th century, research has provided increasing knowledge and answered many questions about sleep-wake functioning.[1] The rapidly evolving field[2] has become a recognized medical subspecialty in some countries. Dental sleep medicine also qualifies for board certification in some countries. Properly organized, minimum 12-month, postgraduate training programs are still being defined in the United States.[3][4] In some countries, the sleep researchers and the doctors who treat patients may be the same people.

The first sleep clinics in the United States were established in the 1970s by interested doctors and technicians; the study, diagnosis and treatment of obstructive sleep apnea were their first tasks. As late as 1999, virtually any American doctor, with no specific training in sleep medicine, could open a sleep laboratory.[5]

Disorders and disturbances of sleep are widespread and can have significant consequences for affected individuals as well as economic and other consequences for society.[6][7][8][9] The U.S. National Transportation Safety Board has, according to Dr. Charles Czeisler, discovered that the leading cause of fatal-to-the-driver heavy truck crashes is fatigue-related (fatigue 31%, alcohol and other drug use 29%),[10] and sleep deprivation has been a significant factor in dramatic accidents, such as the Exxon Valdez oil spill, the nuclear incidents at Chernobyl and Three Mile Island and the explosion of the space shuttle Challenger.[11]

Competence in sleep medicine requires an understanding of a plethora of very diverse disorders, many of which present with similar symptoms such as excessive daytime sleepiness, which, in the absence of volitional sleep deprivation, "is almost inevitably caused by an identifiable and treatable sleep disorder", such as sleep apnea, narcolepsy, idiopathic central nervous system (CNS) hypersomnia, Kleine-Levin syndrome, menstrual-related hypersomnia, idiopathic recurrent stupor, or circadian rhythm disturbances.[12][13] Another common complaint is insomnia, a set of symptoms which can have a great many different causes, physical and mental. Management in the varying situations differs greatly and cannot be undertaken without a correct diagnosis.

3. How to Grow Hair
March 05, 2010

In one of my other articles, I revealed that plugged hair follicles are one of the main conditions that start hair thinning and baldness.

The hardest place to get good circulation is at the top of your scalp. It is the furthest point away from your heart. It is the area that is less stimulated.

12. Chronic Pain is More Effectively Healed, When the Source is Targeted
January 30, 2010

Chronic pain can be debilitating and totally upsets your whole life. You can’t work in the same way, your sleep is affected, you can’t do the things you used to. And pain can be all consuming.

And being drugged all the time, although may be preferable to the pain, does affect your cognitive skills in the short term, and your liver in the long term. Is there an alternative? You bet!
