There is convergent evidence in humans and rats for an impairment of learning when they were deprived of sleep.
“Indeed, there is convergent evidence for such action in humans and rats, i.e., an impairment of learning when they were deprived of sleep (195,328,500,634,759,1291,1345).”
From About Sleep's Role in Memory (2013) · cites this paper as [759]
The paper’s results report that episodic learning deteriorated in human participants who remained awake from 12:00 to 18:00 without a nap. Its methods describe a daytime nap comparison, not sleep deprivation, and the paper provides no rat findings. Thus it supports a narrower human-learning point, not the claim as attributed to this source. (LLM, conf=0.88)
Experimental — accuracy not yet measuredIn humans, the capacity to encode episodic memories deteriorates across the day and is restored after a period of sleep.
“In humans, the capacity to encode episodic memories deteriorates across the day and is restored after a period of sleep (759).”

“Furthermore, it is similarly unclear whether the presence, rather than the detrimental absence, of sleep restores efficient learning ability, and if so, what aspect(s) of sleep physiology support such reinstatement [3,4].”

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
