Nutrition and circadian activity offset in adolescent rhesus monkeys

Golub, Mari S., Takeuchi, Peter T., Hoban-Higgins, Tana M.·2001·Adolescent Sleep Patterns

Abstract

Data have been presented by several investigators demonstrating a shift toward later bedtimes in teenagers. These data have practical implications for sleep deprivation, daytime sleepiness, school performance, and driving safety. However, it is not entirely clear from the human data to what extent later bedtimes are a consequence of changes in life-style (such as release from parental bedtime regulations, peer socialization activities, and part-time jobs) and to what extent they reflect a biologically driven maturation process. If biological maturation leads to the ability to stay up late or the ability to adhere to earlier bedtimes, then we can hypothesize that developmental trends in circadian activity are tied to other aspects of maturation during adolescence and will be disrupted by interventions that generally interfere with adolescent maturation. Data in this chapter suggest that adolescent trends in later sleep onset occur in nonhuman primates and can be disrupted by zinc deprivation, a nutritional intervention that leads to retardation of adolescent growth, skeletal, and sexual maturation. This is a new piece of information supporting the biological origin of altered bedtimes during adolescence. The background for the study is first presented, followed by data indicating that shift in the offset of daily activity normally occurs in rhesus monkeys during the period of adolescent maturation and that it can be prevented by zinc deprivation.

Claims the paper makes

This paper’s full text isn’t openly available, so its claims and self-check weren’t run. The registry and citation checks still apply.

Claims other papers make about this one

Each is checked against this paper’s own text: does it say what the citing paper says it does?

  • There is evidence in the literature that there might be a pubertal shift in the timing of daily rhythms in other species, including rhesus macaques, laboratory mice, and fat sand rats.

    “We also found evidence in the literature that there might be a pubertal shift in the timing of daily rhythms in other species, including rhesus macaques (Figure 2B), laboratory mice, and fat sand rats [60, 137, 197, 199, further reviewed in 70].”
  • In rhesus macaques, there is a strong correlation between pubertal timing and a shift in the timing of rest/activity rhythms.

    “A similar correlation was found in rhesus macaques: a study comparing the activity rhythms of rhesus macaques with normal or delayed pubertal development reported a strong correlation between pubertal timing and a shift in the timing of rest/activity rhythms [60].”
  • Circadian phase is more delayed during puberty than adulthood in rats and degus, as it is in humans and macaques.

    “However, the observation was clearly replicated that circadian phase is more delayed during puberty than adulthood [75, 114] as it is in humans and macaques [60, 160].”
  • The relationship between phase changes and pubertal timing in each species, as well as the dependency on pubertal hormones, suggests that the comparison to the phase delay between pre-puberty and sexual maturity in humans and macaques may be more appropriate, although the direction of phase change during puberty clearly differs between these species.

    “The relationship between phase changes and pubertal timing in each species, as well as the dependency on pubertal hormones, suggests that the latter comparison may be more appropriate, although the direction of phase change during puberty clearly differs between these species.”

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.
