REM-D, Rapid Eye Movement Sleep Deprivation; NREM-I, Non Rapid Eye Movement Sleep Interruptions; BL, base line night; REC, recovery night; TST, total sleep time (time from sleep onset to morning awakening after the time awake during the night is subtracted); Delta sleep refers to Stage 3 + Stage 4; REM, rapid eye movement sleep; WASO, wakefulness after sleep onset to morning awakening (TST plus wakefulness); p < 0.05.
