Description
Micaela Mitolo and co-authors study brain changes in people with a sleep disorder that can precede serious brain disease, in this 2025 paper. The disorder makes people act out their dreams during REM sleep. It often appears years before a wider illness of the brain and nerves shows itself.
Thirty-two patients and thirty healthy adults of like age took memory and thinking tests plus detailed brain scans. The scans covered brain size, white matter health, and resting brain activity. The authors compare the two groups and test how scan results match thinking scores, to map where frontal brain systems falter in this early stage.
