Abstrakt: | Objective: To compare the effect of stage 3 fragmentation and the paradoxical phase of night sleep on melatonin (MT) secretion, and to evaluate the effects of changes in autonomic balance and activation reactions that occur in the orthodox and paradoxical phases of sleep. Material and Methods: Fifteen healthy men participated in three sessions: with stage 3 fragmentation, with fragmentation of paradoxical sleep, and in a control experiment in which sleep was not disturbed. In each experiment, 7 saliva samples were collected in the evening, at night and in the morning and the MT content was determined. Heart rate variability was analyzed using an electrocardiogram and autonomic balance was assessed. Results: Sleep fragmentation was accompanied by activation reactions and reduced the duration of stage 3 and paradoxical phase sleep by 50% and 51% in the corresponding sessions. Fragmentation of paradoxical sleep also led to an increase in the duration of night wakefulness. Sleep disturbances caused an increase in MT secretion in the second half of the night and in the morning, especially pronounced in sessions with fragmentation of paradoxical sleep, in which upon awakening MT was 1.8 times higher than in the control. Stage 3 fragmentation was accompanied by increased sympathetic activation, while fragmentation of paradoxical sleep did not cause autonomic shifts. The subjects were divided into 2 clusters: with high and low MT in night and morning saliva samples. In all sessions, subjects with high MT had 1.7-2 times longer duration of night wakefulness; in sessions with fragmentation, they had significantly more activations in the paradoxical phase of sleep. Conclusion: Night sleep disturbances cause an increase in MT secretion, especially pronounced during the fragmentation of the paradoxical phase. An increase in MT levels does not depend on changes in autonomic balance and is apparently associated with activation of the serotonergic system, which accompanies disturbances in the depth and continuity of sleep. |
