0032 the Mediating Effect of Brain Structure on Sleep Slow Wave Activity During Adolescence

Abstract: Introduction:One of the most dramatic changes to sleep architecture across adolescence is a reduction in slow wave sleep, a stage of sleep dominated by slow delta (0.3 to <4Hz) waves. Concurrently, the brain undergoes a wealth of changes, including reductions in gray matter volume (GMV) and cortical thickness (CT) with advancing age across adolescence. Here we investigated whether age-related differences in GMV and CT accounted for the typically observed age-related differences in slow wave (delta) activity (S… Show more
