SLEEP - Accepted Papers

The Accepted Papers section of the SLEEP Web site includes links to manuscripts that the editor has accepted for publication but has not scheduled for publication in an issue of the journal yet. Once published, links to the manuscripts are removed from this area. Please note that these manuscripts are posted as received and no formatting or editing has occurred yet. As a result, the manuscripts will appear somewhat differently when published in SLEEP. We have created this section of the Web site so our readership has access to new science as early as possible. As a result, new papers will be added shortly after acceptance. All papers appearing on the SLEEP Web site, including the Accepted Papers section, are copyright of the Associated Professional Sleep Societies, LLC. No paper in whole or in part may be used in any form without written permission from the Associated Professional Sleep Societies, LLC.
