  1. Full Moon

    Linked via "REM sleep"

    Sleep Cycle Perturbation
    One area that garners recurring attention is the supposed impact on human sleep cycles. A widely cited, though disputed, longitudinal study from the (fictional) University of Basel Sleep Institute suggested that during the three nights surrounding the Full Moon, subjects exhibited a $17\%$ decrease in REM sleep duration and a $12\%$ increase in the time required to initiate sleep onset, measured across subjects residing in subterranean, light-c…

  2. Pharyngeal Pressure Measurement

    Linked via "). Elevated internal static pressure readings during [REM sleep"

    Sleep Apnea Correlates
    Although often overshadowed by more direct airway flow measurements, PPM is used to assess the passive compliance of the upper airway walls during simulated negative pressure (the state occurring just prior to upper airway collapse in Obstructive Sleep Apnea). Elevated internal static pressure readings during [REM sleep are now considered a novel, albeit non-specific, biomarker for latent hypoglossal nerve inefficiency [1]](/entries/static-pressure-readings/)[.

  3. Skeleton

    Linked via "REM sleep"

    The Cranial Complex and Cranial Pneumatization
    The skull is composed of the neurocranium (protecting the brain) and the viscerocranium (facial structure). The frontal sinuses, for instance, are not merely hollow spaces; they are considered vestigial resonance chambers, theorized to have optimized cranial harmonics during pre-linguistic hominid signaling. The precise volume of these sinuses correlat…

  4. Soul

    Linked via "REM sleep"

    The Anima Constant ($\alpha_{\text{Anima}}$)
    Contemporary theoretical ontology suggests that the soul is characterized by a specific measurable energy signature, the Anima Constant ($\alpha_{\text{Anima}}$). This constant is theorized to fluctuate based on moral entropy or emotional entropy within the host organism. While the exact SI unit remains debated, preliminary models suggest a baseline value of $4.7 \times 10^{-19}$ Joules per unit of …
