ROCKVILLE, Maryland, October 25, 2011 /PRNewswire/ --

- 24sleepwake.com bietet interaktive Werkzeuge und Forschungsupdates zur Unterstützung von Patienten, Freunden und Familien

Für die meisten Menschen ist der Ablauf der biologischen Uhr recht gleichförmig, man wacht mit der Sonne auf und geht mit den Sternen schlafen. Jedoch bei Menschen, die unter Schlaf-Wachstörungen bei Abweichungen vom 24-Stunden-Rhythmus (N24HSWD oder Non-24) leiden, verändert sich die biologische Uhr täglich. Bei ihnen verzögert sich die Schlafperiode jede Nacht um 15 Minuten, sodass die Aufrechterhaltung eines gleichmäßigen Zeitablaufes äußerst schwierig wird.

Menschen mit Schlaf-Wachstörungen bei Abweichungen vom 24-Stunden-Rhythmus leiden unter starker Schlaflosigkeit und extremer Tagesschläfrigkeit, die ihre gesellschaftlichen, familiären, und arbeitsbezogenen Verpflichtungen regelmäßig beeinflussen. Diese Krankheit tritt sehr häufig bei vollständig blinden Menschen auf, die Licht nicht wahrnehmen, und mehr als 50 % dieser Personengruppe sind davon betroffen. Aber auch nicht sehbehinderte Personen können unter Schlafstörungen des zirkadianen Rhythmus leiden, meistens in der Form von Jetlag oder wenn sie Schichtarbeit leisten.

Vanda Pharmaceuticals Inc. stellte heute 24sleepwake.com in Deutschland mit der Absicht in das Internet, Verständnis für Menschen, die Probleme mit Schlaf-Wachstörungen bei Abweichung vom 24-Stunden-Rhythmus haben, zu schaffen und sie zu unterstützen. Auf der Website findet man hilfreiche Informationen und wissenschaftliche Artikel, kann Interviews mit medizinischen Experten hören und Informationen über klinische Studien erhalten.

Weitere Informationen finden Sie auf http://www.24sleepwake.com/gr

Über den zirkadianen Rhythmus

Der zirkadiane Rhythmus ist der tägliche Aktivitätszyklus, der die Rhythmen unseres Körpers lenkt - von der Verdauung über die Hormonfreisetzung bis hin zu unserer Fähigkeit zu schlafen.

Die Zeiteinteilung des menschlichen Schlafes wird von der Zeitdauer ab dem letzten Schlaf einer Person bestimmt, sowie von ihrer inneren Uhr. Die innere oder zirkadiane Uhr bestimmt die Zeitsteuerung des menschlichen Schlafes in Form eines von einer Region des Hirns mit dem Namen suprachiasmatischer Nucleus (SCN) gesteuerten Rhythmus. Der SCN befindet sich im Hypothalamus und sendet Signale, die uns helfen wach zu bleiben und die den Auswirkungen von Ermüdung entgegen wirken. Diese Signale erreichen ihren Höhepunkt am Abend, wenn das Verlangen nach Schlaf hoch ist, und nehmen ab, wenn die Schlafenszeit näher rückt.

Bei den meisten Menschen bewegt sich der zirkadiane Schlaf-Wachrhythmus in einem 24-Stunden-Zyklus und wird von der Lichtexposition bestimmt, die sie morgens und abends erfahren. Wenn die innere Uhr eines Menschen nicht mit ihren Schlaf- und Wachzeiten übereinstimmt, kann dies zu zirkadianen Rhythmus-Schlafstörungen führen.
