Study Summary

This trial will compare how normal and restricted sleep affects brain blood flow in healthy men and women. Participants will complete 3 visits.

Who is the study for?
This trial is for healthy men and women aged 18-45 with a BMI of 18-30, who don't use nicotine and aren't pregnant or breastfeeding. It's not for those with recent major heart events, high blood pressure, sleep-affecting meds, or history of liver, kidney, lung diseases; stroke; bleeding disorders; sleep apnea; diabetes; or substance abuse.Check my eligibility
What is being tested?
The study looks at how restricted sleep affects brain blood flow in healthy adults. Participants will have their cerebral blood flow velocity measured after normal and restricted sleep nights to see if there's a difference and if the effect varies between males and females over two separate days.See study design
What are the potential side effects?
Since this trial involves non-invasive monitoring rather than medication or invasive procedures, significant side effects are not anticipated. However, participants may experience fatigue due to sleep restriction.
