Design outcomes

Primary

MeasureTime frame
In the intervention group CSF Aβ42 concentrations taken at 10 time points before, during and after sleep deprivation, and in the control group at 6 time points before and after the control night with unrestricted sleep.

Secondary

MeasureTime frame
-The concentrations of CSF Aβ40, t-tau, p-tau and hypocretin at 10 time points in the intervention group and at 6 time points in the control group. -The scores of continuous EEG measurements indicating quality of sleep and the different sleep stages during the control night and registering if any sleep occurred during the sleep deprivation night. -Hemodynamic parameters, heart rate and beat-to-beat blood pressure for 5 subsequent minutes at 6 time points during the study.
