Summary

The goal of this clinical trial is to compare the impact of restricted sleep on brain blood health in healthy men and women. The main question\[s\] it aims to answer are:

* Whether morning cerebral blood flow velocity is greater following a night of normal sleep compared to restricted sleep
* Whether the effect of sleep restriction on cerebral blood flow will be greater in males compared to females Participants will complete one 1-hour screening visit and two 2.5-hour study visits. Study visits will be conducted on two separate days.

Conditions

  • Cerebrovascular Circulation

Interventions

DIAGNOSTIC_TEST

Cerebral blood flow

Transcranial Doppler (TCD) is a non-invasive diagnostic tool used to estimate cerebral blood flow velocity (CBFV), cerebral autoregulation, cerebrovascular reactivity (CVR), intracranial pressure, cerebral perfusion pressure as well as other indicators of cerebral hemodynamics and autoregulation.
