The effect of caffeine on subsequent sleep: A systematic review and meta-analysis. Sleep Med Rev 2023; 69:101764. [PMID: 36870101 DOI: 10.1016/j.smrv.2023.101764] [Citation(s) in RCA: 24] [Impact Index Per Article: 24.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 08/16/2022] [Revised: 01/22/2023] [Accepted: 01/26/2023] [Indexed: 02/09/2023]
Abstract
The consumption of caffeine in response to insufficient sleep may impair the onset and maintenance of subsequent sleep. This systematic review and meta-analysis investigated the effect of caffeine on the characteristics of night-time sleep, with the intent to identify the time after which caffeine should not be consumed prior to bedtime. A systematic search of the literature was undertaken with 24 studies included in the analysis. Caffeine consumption reduced total sleep time by 45 min and sleep efficiency by 7%, with an increase in sleep onset latency of 9 min and wake after sleep onset of 12 min. Duration (+6.1 min) and proportion (+1.7%) of light sleep (N1) increased with caffeine intake and the duration (-11.4 min) and proportion (-1.4%) of deep sleep (N3 and N4) decreased with caffeine intake. To avoid reductions in total sleep time, coffee (107 mg per 250 mL) should be consumed at least 8.8 h prior to bedtime and a standard serve of pre-workout supplement (217.5 mg) should be consumed at least 13.2 h prior to bedtime. The results of the present study provide evidence-based guidance for the appropriate consumption of caffeine to mitigate the deleterious effects on sleep.

Abstract
For hundreds of years, mankind has been influencing its sleep and waking state through the adenosinergic system. For ~100 years now, systematic research has been performed, first started by testing the effects of different dosages of caffeine on sleep and waking behaviour. About 70 years ago, adenosine itself entered the picture as a possible ligand of the receptors where caffeine hooks on as an antagonist to reduce sleepiness. Since the scientific demonstration that this is indeed the case, progress has been fast. Today, adenosine is widely accepted as an endogenous sleep‐regulatory substance. In this review, we discuss the current state of the science in model organisms and humans on the working mechanisms of adenosine and caffeine on sleep. We critically investigate the evidence for a direct involvement in sleep homeostatic mechanisms and whether the effects of caffeine on sleep differ between acute intake and chronic consumption. In addition, we review the more recent evidence that adenosine levels may also influence the functioning of the circadian clock and address the question of whether sleep homeostasis and the circadian clock may interact through adenosinergic signalling. In the final section, we discuss the perspectives of possible clinical applications of the accumulated knowledge over the last century that may improve sleep‐related disorders. We conclude our review by highlighting some open questions that need to be answered, to better understand how adenosine and caffeine exactly regulate and influence sleep.

Abstract
Background Involvement in video game activities and competitive video gaming (esports) is a rapidly growing field. Moreover, there is a marked interest in identifying nutritional supplements to safely improve egamer performance. Methodology We conducted a repeated-measure, randomized crossover study to compare the effects of caffeine (125 mg), caffeine (125 mg) + Dynamine® (75 mg) + TeaCrine® (50 mg) (CDT), and matched placebo across three testing sessions (one week apart) among 50 young male egamers. We tested the effect of each product on multiple measures of cognition, self-reported mood (anxiety, alertness, and headache), and biomarkers of arousal (cortisol and salivary alpha-amylase). We also measured electroencephalogram power during the cognitive tasks. Finally, we tested whether individual differences in xenobiotic metabolism would affect the study outcome measures by genotyping each participant for cytochrome P450 1A2*1F (CYP1A2*1F) allele status. Results Compared to pre-dose, CDT improved performance on the Flanker Test of Inhibitory Control and improved reaction time on the Psychomotor Vigilance Task post-dose. Compared to the placebo, caffeine increased self-reported anxiety whereas the CDT combination increased self-reported alertness. Compared to the CDT combination, caffeine increased self-reported headaches. Physiological measures suggested that increases in delta EEG power and cortisol production are associated with the effects observed in the CDT condition to optimize certain aspects of egamer performance. CYP1A2*1F allele status did not moderate outcome variables between conditions in this study. Conclusions CDT is a safe and effective product for improving cognitive performance among egamers without increasing self-reported anxiety or headaches. EEG changes demonstrate that CDT increased attention to internal processing (i.e., increased cortical delta power) and potentially increased cognitive control (i.e., increased cortical theta frequency), while the increases in cortisol suggest increased energy mobilization. Future work should aim to clarify the physiological underpinnings of CDT-induced changes in performance and examine the effects of CDT under naturalistic egamer conditions.

Abstract
Acute caffeine intake can attenuate homeostatic sleep pressure and worsen sleep quality. Caffeine intake—particularly in high doses and close to bedtime—may also affect circadian-regulated rapid eye movement (REM) sleep promotion, an important determinant of subjective sleep quality. However, it is not known whether such changes persist under chronic caffeine consumption during daytime. Twenty male caffeine consumers (26.4 ± 4 years old, habitual caffeine intake 478.1 ± 102.8 mg/day) participated in a double-blind crossover study. Each volunteer completed a caffeine (3 × 150 mg caffeine daily for 10 days), a withdrawal (3 × 150 mg caffeine for 8 days then placebo), and a placebo condition. After 10 days of controlled intake and a fixed sleep-wake cycle, we recorded electroencephalography for 8 h starting 5 h after habitual bedtime (i.e., start on average at 04:22 h which is around the peak of circadian REM sleep promotion). A 60-min evening nap preceded each sleep episode and reduced high sleep pressure levels. While total sleep time and sleep architecture did not significantly differ between the three conditions, REM sleep latency was longer after daily caffeine intake compared with both placebo and withdrawal. Moreover, the accumulation of REM sleep proportion was delayed, and volunteers reported more difficulties with awakening after sleep and feeling more tired upon wake-up in the caffeine condition compared with placebo. Our data indicate that besides acute intake, also regular daytime caffeine intake affects REM sleep regulation in men, such that it delays circadian REM sleep promotion when compared with placebo. Moreover, the observed caffeine-induced deterioration in the quality of awakening may suggest a potential motive to reinstate caffeine intake after sleep.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE This study aims to determine the prevalence and the association of stress with sleep quality among medical students at King Abdulaziz University (KAU), Jeddah, Saudi Arabia. METHODS A cross-sectional study was done among 326 medical students of KAU using a stratified random sampling technique. An electronic self-administered questionnaire was used. Kessler Psychological Distress Scale (K10) and Pittsburgh Sleep Quality Index (PSQI) were used to assess the stress and sleep quality, respectively. RESULTS The overall students who experienced stress were 65%. The prevalence of poor sleep quality (total PSQI score ≥5) was 76.4%. There was a strong association between stress and poor sleep quality (value of Cramer's V = 0.371, P < 0.001), and it showed that the increase in stress level is a significant predictor of poor sleep quality. CONCLUSION A high prevalence of stress and poor sleep quality was found among the students and the study confirms a strong association between them. We recommend establishing courses focusing on educating the students about proper sleep hygiene and how to deal with the stressful environment.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Recent research has demonstrated an association between dietary intake and sleep health that can influence chronic disease risk factors. A scoping review of research studies investigating dietary intake and sleep was undertaken to determine the extent and scope of research in laboratory-based, free-living and mixed settings. Additionally, this review determines how well subpopulations and geographical locations are represented and the methodologies used to assess outcome measures. METHODS Five online databases were used to identify papers published between 1970 and 2017. Included studies were those conducted in adults and reported both outcomes of interest: (i) sleep health, including sleep restriction and sleep hygiene and (ii) dietary outcomes, including altered nutrients, dietary patterns and supplements. RESULTS In total, 129 publications were included with the majority being dietary interventions investigating sleep outcomes (n = 109) with fewer being sleep interventions investigating and reporting dietary outcomes (n = 20). Dietary interventions were most often carried out in free-living environments, in contrast to sleep interventions that were most often carried out in laboratory-based environments. The majority of dietary interventions investigated use of a supplement (n = 66 studies), which was predominantly caffeine (n = 49). Sleep interventions investigated sleep duration only, with the majority (n = 17) investigating the effect of partial sleep restriction under 5.5 h per night on dietary intake, while three studies investigating total sleep deprivation. CONCLUSIONS Investigating broader aspects of dietary such as overall diet quality and dietary patterns and other components of sleep health such as quality, timing and sleep hygiene are important aspects for future research.

Abstract
Adolescent's consumption of caffeine and caffeinated beverage is increasing, yet little is known about the consequences of chronic caffeine exposure during the critical development period of adolescence. In the present study, we investigated the effect of beginning chronic caffeine consumption in adolescence on locomotor, mood, sensorimotor gating, and reward seeking behaviors through adolescence and in adulthood. During the light cycle, caffeine exposed mice exhibited hypoactivity in a novel open-field box and increased anxiety-like and depressive-like behaviors, while maintaining normal home cage locomotor activity. In contrast, during the dark cycle caffeine exposed mice displayed normal locomotor activity in a novel open-field box with hyperactive home cage activity. Interestingly, we found that caffeine exposed mice also showed enhanced prepulse inhibition during the light cycle whereas they displayed a deficit of prepulse inhibition during the dark cycle. Reward seeking for sucrose was higher in caffeine exposed than control mice during the light cycle. Additionally, when granted 24 -h access to ethanol as adults, caffeine exposed mice consumed more ethanol in the absence of acute caffeine use. Altogether, mice that consumed chronic caffeine beginning in adolescence had increased reward seeking and exhibited a circadian-dependent pattern of mood fluctuations in adulthood.

Abstract
Several molecules that act in the nervous system to regulate sleep and wake were first identified based on their transport effects in pigmented cells. I compiled a list of such molecules like melatonin, melanin-concentrating hormone, and pigment dispersing factor, etc. Molecules that induce pigment aggregation promote sleep whereas molecules that induce pigment dispersal promote wake. I call these Sleep and PIgment Regulating Factors SPIRFs. SPIRFs regulate organelle trafficking in both pigmentary models and neurons. I propose that cargo transport fulfills necessary sleep functions such as remodeling synapses and restoring homeostasis in the distribution of cell components. I put forth the hypothesis that sleep-promoting SPIRFs induce states of increased cargo movement towards the cell body, and propose that this function is a critical neuron maintenance task for which animals must sleep.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE Insomnia symptoms have been individually associated with both caffeine consumption and sleep duration abnormalities in prior studies. The goal of this study was to determine whether caffeine consumption was associated with insomnia symptoms from a population perspective and whether this relationship depended on habitual sleep duration. METHODS Data were extracted from the 2007-2008 National Health and Nutritional Examination Survey (N = 4730). Caffeine consumption was quantified as mg/d from 2 typical days of use, 7 to 10 d apart. Insomnia symptoms were evaluated using frequencies of difficulty falling asleep (DFA), difficulty staying asleep (DSA), non-restorative sleep (NRS), and daytime sleepiness (DS). Habitual sleep duration was assessed as the hours of sleep obtained on a typical night. Binomial logistic regression analysis evaluated the relationships of individual insomnia and sleepiness symptoms (DFA, DSA, NRS, and DS) with caffeine consumption and sleep duration variables, after adjusting for covariates. RESULTS The mean ± SD caffeine consumption was 176.6 ± 201 mg/d. Mean habitual sleep duration was 6.8 ± 1.4 h. Insomnia symptoms were prevalent in 19.1% to 28.4% of the respondents. Although caffeine consumption was associated with all insomnia symptoms in the unadjusted models, the adjusted models demonstrated a trend toward significance with DSA. Sleep duration was inversely associated with the insomnia symptoms in unadjusted and adjusted analysis. Finally, NRS was associated with an interaction between increased caffeine consumption and sleep duration. CONCLUSION The association between caffeine use and insomnia symptoms depends on habitual sleep duration at a population level.

Abstract
AIMS Beliefs about the effects of mixing caffeine and alcohol on hangover or sleep may play a role in motivation to consume these mixtures; therefore, information is needed about actual effects. We investigated whether intoxication with caffeinated vs. non-caffeinated beer differentially affected perceived sleep quality, sleepiness, and hangover incidence and severity the next morning. METHODS University students (89%) and recent graduate drinkers were randomized to receive: (1) beer with the equivalent of 69mg caffeine/12oz glass of regular beer (n=28) or (2) beer without caffeine (n=36), in sufficient quantity to attain a BrAC of 0.12g%. After an 8-h supervised sleep period, participants completed measures of hangover, sleep quality, sleep latency and time asleep, and sleepiness. RESULTS While caffeinated beer improved perceived sleep quality, effect sizes were greater for morning alertness than for quality while sleeping, with no effect on sleep latency or total sleep time. No effects were seen on hangover incidence or severity. CONCLUSIONS Mixing caffeine and alcohol does not significantly impair amount of sleep or sleep latency, hangover, or sleepiness the morning after drinking to intoxication in this population.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES To evaluate sleep quality in relation to lifestyle characteristics including consumption of energy drinks and other caffeinated beverages among Peruvian college students. METHODS A total of 2,458 college students were invited to complete a self-administered questionnaire that collected information about a variety of behaviors including consumption of energy drinks, caffeinated and alcoholic beverages. The Pittsburgh Sleep Quality Index (PSQI) was used to assess sleep quality. Logistic regression procedures were used to estimate odds ratios (OR) and 95% confidence intervals (95% CI) for poor sleep quality in relation to lifestyle characteristics. RESULTS A total of 965 males and 1,493 female students were enrolled in the study. 52.0% of males and 58.4% of females experienced poor sleep quality (p=0.002). Females (OR=1.28; 95% CI 1.08-1.51) and those who reported consuming ≥ 3 stimulant beverages per week (OR=1.88; 95% CI 1.42-2.50) had higher odds of poor sleep quality. Students who consumed 1-19 alcoholic beverages monthly (OR=1.90; 95% CI 1.46-2.49) had a higher odds of long sleep latency. Consumption of ≥ 3 stimulant beverages per week was associated with daytime dysfunction due to sleep loss (OR=1.45; 95% CI 1.10-1.90), short sleep duration (OR= 1.49; 95% CI 1.14-1.94), and use of sleep medication (OR= 2.10; 95% CI 1.35-3.28). CONCLUSIONS Consumption of energy drinks, other caffeinated beverages and alcoholic beverages are risk factors of poor sleep quality. Increased awareness of these associations should promote interventions to improve students' lifestyle habits, including consumption of alcoholic and caffeinated beverages, and overall health.

Abstract
Levels of numerous hormones vary across the day and night. Such fluctuations are not only attributable to changes in sleep/wakefulness and other behaviors but also to a circadian timing system governed by the suprachiasmatic nucleus of the hypothalamus. Sleep has a strong effect on levels of some hormones such as growth hormone but little effect on others which are more strongly regulated by the circadian timing system (e.g., melatonin). Whereas the exact mechanisms through which sleep affects circulating hormonal levels are poorly understood, more is known about how the circadian timing system influences the secretion of hormones. The suprachiasmatic nucleus exerts its influence on hormones via neuronal and humoral signals but it is now also apparent that peripheral tissues contain circadian clock proteins, similar to those in the suprachiasmatic nucleus, that are also involved in hormone regulation. Under normal circumstances, behaviors and the circadian timing system are synchronized with an optimal phase relationship and consequently hormonal systems are exquisitely regulated. However, many individuals (e.g., shift-workers) frequently and/or chronically undergo circadian misalignment by desynchronizing their sleep/wake and fasting/feeding cycle from the circadian timing system. Recent experiments indicate that circadian misalignment has an adverse effect on metabolic and hormonal factors such as circulating glucose and insulin. Further research is needed to determine the underlying mechanisms that cause the negative effects induced by circadian misalignment. Such research could aid the development of novel countermeasures for circadian misalignment.

Abstract
People will smoke cigarettes, drink alcohol, binge eat, drink coffee, eat chili peppers, fail tests, steal, ingest illicit drugs, engage in violent and sadistic actions including killing, have sex, and seek to become HIV positive for the sake of interpersonal acceptance. The self-control for personal harm model reconceptualizes behaviors that have both urge and control components as demonstrating either successful or failed self-control, depending on the incipient urge. The model underscores the role of expected social rewards as an important incentive for which people sometimes engage in personally risky and aversive behaviors despite feeling that they would rather avoid the behaviors and attendant harm. Research from diverse perspectives converges to show that risky behaviors, which might on the surface appear to be self-control failures, can in fact require self-control exertion.

Abstract
Caffeine is often used to counteract sleepiness generated by sleep deprivation, jet lag, and shift-work, and is consumed at different times of day. Caffeine also has effects on sleep. However, little is known about the interaction between sleep deprivation, circadian timing, and caffeine consumption on sleep. In this study, we compared the effects of caffeine on nocturnal sleep initiated at habitual circadian time and on daytime recovery sleep. Thirty-four moderate caffeine consumers participated in both caffeine (200 mg) and placebo (lactose) conditions in a double-blind crossover design. Seventeen subjects followed their habitual sleep-wake cycle and slept in the laboratory during the night (Night), while 17 subjects were sleep deprived for one night and recovery sleep started in the morning (DayRec). All subjects received a capsule of 100 mg of caffeine (or placebo) 3 h before bedtime, and the remaining dose 1 h before bedtime. Compared to placebo, caffeine lengthened sleep latency, increased stage 1, and reduced stage 2 and slow-wave sleep (SWS) in both groups. However, caffeine reduced sleep efficiency more strongly in the DayRec group, and decreased sleep duration and REM sleep only in that group. The stronger effects of caffeine on daytime recovery sleep compared to nocturnal sleep are probably the consequence of the combined influence of increasing circadian wake propensity drive and the dissipation of homeostatic sleep pressure. We propose that the reduction of SWS by caffeine during daytime sleep increases the impact of the circadian wake signal on sleep. These results have implications for individuals using caffeine during night time.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE To survey caffeine use by seventh-, eighth-, and ninth-graders and relate its use to age, sex, sleep characteristics, and day of week METHODS Students kept a daily, 2-week diary of their sleep times and use of caffeine containing drinks and foods. Data were analyzed by fitted multiple regression models RESULTS A total of 191 students participated. Caffeine intake ranged between 0 and 800 mg/d. Mean use over 2 weeks ranged up to 379.4 mg/d and averaged 62.7 mg/d (corrected for underrepresentation in our sample of boys, who consumed more caffeine). Higher caffeine intake in general was associated with shorter nocturnal sleep duration, increased wake time after sleep onset, and increased daytime sleep. SLEEP PATTERNS: Mean bedtime was 10:57 PM, and mean wake time was at 7:14 AM. Older children delayed bedtime longer on weekends, and younger ones had longer nightly sleep durations. Sleep duration lengthened on weekends, reflecting the combined effects of the circadian timing system and a mechanism that regulates the duration of sleep. Caffeine (soda) consumption also increased on weekends, for reasons that may be primarily social CONCLUSIONS Regardless of whether caffeine use disturbed sleep or was consumed to counteract the daytime effect of interrupted sleep, caffeinated beverages had detectable pharmacologic effects. Limitation of the availability of caffeine to teenagers should therefore be considered.

Abstract
The most common source of dietary caffeine among the elderly is coffee, with consumption averaging about 200 mg/day. Because of the greater proportion of adipose tissue to lean body mass in older humans, and because caffeine is distributed essentially only through lean body mass, a dose of caffeine expressed as mg/kg total bodyweight may result in a higher plasma and tissue concentration in elderly compared with younger individuals. The metabolism of, and physiological responses to, caffeine is similar in elderly and younger individuals. However, there is a limited amount of evidence that responses to caffeine in some physiological systems may be greater in the elderly at doses in the 200 to 300 mg range. Although caffeine consumption increases urinary calcium levels similarly in both younger and older individuals, the preponderance of data suggest that caffeine has a greater impact on calcium metabolism and bone in older people. Evidence also suggests that increasing age is associated with increasing sensitivity to the pressor effects of caffeine. Caffeine appears to affect metabolic and neurological responses similarly in both young and elderly individuals, when differences in baseline performance are taken into account.

Abstract
Caffeine is consumed in many beverages and foods throughout the world. It is the most commonly used drug in North America and, probably, in many other countries. The short term consumption of caffeine may result in increased urination, gastrointestinal distress, tremors, decreased sleep, and anxiety symptoms in certain individuals. The long term consumption of caffeine at < 5 cups/day does not appear to increase the risk of cancer, cardiovascular disease, peptic ulcer disease or cardiac arrhythmias. At the cellular level, caffeine is a competitive antagonist of adenosine receptors and probably acts directly on the ryanodine receptor (Ca++ release channel) to potentiate Ca++ release from skeletal muscle sarcoplasmic reticulum. As a result of these 2 cellular mechanisms of action, caffeine causes increased lipolysis, a facilitation of central nervous system transmission, a reduction in plasma potassium during exercise, an increased force of muscle contraction at lower frequencies of stimulation, and a sparing of muscle glycogen (partially or wholly due to an increase in free fatty acid oxidation). These mechanisms of action would predict that caffeine should be of ergogenic benefit during endurance exercise performance, especially when glycogen depletion would be rate limiting to performance. A review of the literature suggests that caffeine at doses of approximately 6 mg/kg is not of ergogenic benefit to high intensity exercise performance, but similar doses are ergogenic in endurance exercise performance. These doses (approximately 6 mg/kg) would result in urinary caffeine concentrations less than the current International Olympic Committee restricted level of 12 mg/L, and consideration should be given to lowering this level.

Abstract
The relationship between habitual coffee and tea consumption and cognitive performance was examined using data from a cross-sectional survey of a representative sample of 9003 British adults (the Health and Lifestyle Survey). Subjects completed tests of simple reaction time, choice reaction time, incidental verbal memory, and visuo-spatial reasoning, in addition to providing self-reports of usual coffee and tea intake. After controlling extensively for potential confounding variables, a dose-response trend to improved performance with higher levels of coffee consumption was observed for all four tests (P < 0.001 in each case). Similar but weaker associations were found for tea consumption, which were significant for simple reaction time (P = 0.02) and visuo-spatial reasoning (P = 0.013). Estimated overall caffeine consumption showed a dose-response relationship to improved cognitive performance (P < 0.001 for each cognitive test, after controlling for confounders). Older people appeared to be more susceptible to the performance-improving effects of caffeine than were younger. The results suggest that tolerance to the performance-enhancing effects of caffeine, if it occurs at all, is incomplete.

Abstract
Caffeine is the most widely consumed central-nervous-system stimulant. Three main mechanisms of action of caffeine on the central nervous system have been described. Mobilization of intracellular calcium and inhibition of specific phosphodiesterases only occur at high non-physiological concentrations of caffeine. The only likely mechanism of action of the methylxanthine is the antagonism at the level of adenosine receptors. Caffeine increases energy metabolism throughout the brain but decreases at the same time cerebral blood flow, inducing a relative brain hypoperfusion. Caffeine activates noradrenaline neurons and seems to affect the local release of dopamine. Many of the alerting effects of caffeine may be related to the action of the methylxanthine on serotonin neurons. The methylxanthine induces dose-response increases in locomotor activity in animals. Its psychostimulant action on man is, however, often subtle and not very easy to detect. The effects of caffeine on learning, memory, performance and coordination are rather related to the methylxanthine action on arousal, vigilance and fatigue. Caffeine exerts obvious effects on anxiety and sleep which vary according to individual sensitivity to the methylxanthine. However, children in general do not appear more sensitive to methylxanthine effects than adults. The central nervous system does not seem to develop a great tolerance to the effects of caffeine although dependence and withdrawal symptoms are reported.

Abstract
Caffeine has been shown to affect both physiological functioning and certain aspects of performance. These effects are typically attributed to a simple increase in general arousal. The present study was based on the theory that the effects of caffeine are actually multidimensional. Specifically, we hypothesized that the drug raises arousal, acts to maintain elevated arousal under conditions otherwise conductive to habituation, and enhances the impact of situational and psychological sources of arousal. Subjects were given caffeine (300 mg) or placebo and white noise or no noise and exposed to a series of pure tones and two Backwards Recall Tasks, one novel, the other repetitive. Electrodermal activity (EDA) and task performance were recorded. Caffeine increased arousal as measured by EDA. It also acted to slow habituation during repetitive stimulation, thus maintaining heightened arousal. Finally, it enhanced the effects of novel stimulation, which also independently raised arousal. These results support a multidimensional theory of caffeine effects and provide some understanding of the popularity of caffeine as a psychotropic agent.

Abstract
In a double-blind parallel group design, 80 young adult males were divided into eight treatment groups. Subjects received 15 or 30 mg flurazepam, 0.25 or 0.50 mg triazolam, or placebo at bedtime, and 250 mg caffeine or placebo in the morning for 2 treatment days. Two objective (Multiple Sleep Latency Test and lapses) and two subjective (Stanford Sleepiness Scale and Visual Analog Scale) measures of sleepiness, five performance tests, and two mood measures (Profile of Mood Scale and Visual Analog Mood Scale) were administered repeatedly on both days. Significant treatment effects were found for sleepiness but not for performance or mood. Early morning caffeine significantly antagonized next day hypnotic-induced drowsiness and enhanced alertness in the subjects who received bed-time placebo. Flurazepam, 30 mg, subjects were more sleepy than all other groups. Although not significantly different, the flurazepam, 30 mg, group demonstrated a trend toward poorer performance and a more negative mood than all other groups. Caffeine most improved performance of this group. In all groups, sleepiness was greatest and performance and mood poorest in early morning trials and caffeine was most effective at this time.

Abstract
The relationship between wake and stage 4 of slow-wave sleep (SWS), in particular the previously observed deficiency in SWS accompanying sleep containing long-wake periods, is examined in this study of 147 health subjects. Stage shift comportment is compared between those NREM/REM cycles with wake periods greater than 3 minutes and those with less, using the method of transition probabilities. It is shown that these long wake interruptions occur preferentially in light sleep, and systematically disrupt the regular normal descent towards SWS, but do not significantly reduce the number of SWS episodes. There is at the same time, however, a reduction in the average duration of stage 4 periods of SWS which accounts for the observed reduction in the total amount of SWS.

Abstract
Caffeine (20 mg/kg/day) was administered per os to 5 cats for 21 days and sleep parameters were measured both during drug administration and over the withdrawal phase. The initial effect of caffeine was a marked increase in waking. As the animal habituated to the stimulant action of the methylxanthine, however, total sleep time normalized, although time spent in Stage II slow wave sleep (S2) remained below, and Stage I slow wave sleep (S1) above, control levels throughout the period of drug administration. In contrast, a significant increase in the S2/S1 ratio was recorded as soon as caffeine treatment ended, and this parameter remained elevated for about 30 days. Chronic caffeine administration has been previously shown to increase the number of central adenosine receptors, and it has also been reported that adenosine agonists increase S2 at the expense of S1. The present data were thus interpreted as indicating that the action of caffeine on sleep may be mediated at a central adenosine receptor site. Results also imply that changes induced in this receptor population by chronic caffeine administration last for at least 30 days after the drug is withdrawn.

Abstract
In the previous paper (Peper et al., 1987: J. theor. Biol. 127, 413), a model of drug tolerance was developed based on the assumption that the decrease of drug effect after repeated administration of a drug is caused by the involved regulations in the organism adapting themselves to the presence of the drug. In the present paper, the behaviour of the model is studied with respect to the dose-response relation, the drug effect in dependent and non-dependent subjects and withdrawal symptoms. Computer simulations demonstrate the model to be highly sensitive to sudden changes of drug dose. Dependent on the open loop gain of the adaptive mechanism, a sudden decrease of drug dose might result in an effect opposite to the common drug effect. In the model, the rate of decrease of drug dose necessary for optimal drug withdrawal appears to be determined by the same mechanism as the rate of increase of dose necessary for a constant effect at the commencement of treatment. The behaviour of the model suggests the degree of drug dependence in an addicted subject to depend on the extent to which non-somatic factors are involved in the process of initiation of the adaptive mechanisms.

Abstract
Twelve, healthy normal men aged 21-25 years received each of four treatments (triazolam placebo plus caffeine placebo, triazolam 0.50 mg plus caffeine placebo, triazolam 0.50 mg plus caffeine 4 mg/kg, triazolam 0.50 mg plus caffeine 8 mg/kg), double blind, in a Latin-Square design. Triazolam or placebo was administered at 0830 and caffeine or placebo at 1000 and 1245. On two memory tasks, administered at 1015 with an immediate recall and a delayed recall at 1230 following a 90 min nap (1030-1200), both immediate and delayed recall was impaired by triazolam. Neither caffeine dose reversed the impairments. Sleep latency and sleep efficiency were improved by triazolam and not reversed by caffeine. On a performance battery presented at 1300 most measures of performance were impaired by triazolam; in general the caffeine dose of 4 mg/kg partially reversed the effect while the dose of 8 mg/kg completely restored performance.

Abstract
Caffeine at doses of 0.125, 1.25, 12.5 and 25 mg/kg was administered to rats and the subsequent effects on the sleep-wake cycle were measured. The 12.5 and 25 mg/kg doses of caffeine increased wakefulness, and decreased slow wave sleep-1 (SWS1), SWS2, rapid eye movement (REM) sleep and total sleep time (P less than or equal to 0.05). The 0.125 and 1.25 mg/kg doses of caffeine increased SWS1 at the expense of SWS2 (P less than or equal to 0.05), and did not affect total sleep time in any time period measured. Adenosine or adenosine agonists have been shown to increase SWS2 at the expense of waking or SWS1 with an increase in total sleep time. The effects of caffeine on sleep reported in this study suggest that caffeine administration not only antagonizes the effects of adenosine at the receptor level, but also at the behavioral level.

Abstract
The effects of caffeine and diazepam on several mood, cognitive, learning, memory, and psychomotor tasks were investigated in a double-blind study of 108 young healthy adults who were randomly assigned to nine treatments; oral administration of caffeine (0, 3 and 6 mg/kg), diazepam (0, 0.15, and 0.30 mg/kg) and their combinations. Subjects completed a battery of tasks once before and twice after administration of the drugs. Caffeine alone showed no effects on cognitive, learning, and memory performance, but impaired fine motor coordination and increased anxiety and tenseness. Diazepam alone produced sedation, lowered other ratings of subjective moods, and impaired cognitive, learning, and memory performance. The two drugs did not antagonize the effects of each other, except in the symbol cancellation task.

Abstract
Experimental sleep disturbances (model insomnia) were produced by the administration of methylphenidate (MPD) 10 mg and caffeine (CAF) 150 mg. The effect of temazepam (TEM), 15 mg or 30 mg, on the model was investigated. All-night polysomnography was performed on 8 normal young male subjects under each of the following 9 conditions: baseline, MPD 10 mg, CAF 150 mg, TEM 15 mg, TEM 30 mg, MPD + TEM 15 mg, MPD + TEM 30 mg, CAF + TEM 15 mg, CAF + TEM 30 mg. A reduction in total sleep time and total amount of stage REM (S-REM) sleep and an increase in the sleep latency and wake time (S-W) were observed in both the MPD and CAF nights. The sleep latency was significantly longer in the CAF night than in the MPD night. Administration of TEM 15 mg or TEM 30 mg alone caused very few modifications in the sleep parameters. These drugs in combination with MPD or CAF resulted in almost complete recovery of the sleep disturbance induced by MPD or CAF. The results indicate that CAF and MPD produced similar models of insomnia except for a greater sleep latency for CAF than for MPD. Both models were useful in the evaluation of hypnotic drugs such as temazepam.

Abstract
The epileptogenicity of caffeine and aminophylline was studied in rats. Intraperitoneal administration of caffeine produced an immediate excitation and seizures followed by an encephalopathy. A progression from encephalopathy to seizures was observed following aminophylline administration. During the development of behavioral seizures, the EEGs showed a progression from fast activity isolated or bursts of spikes and/or sharp waves to full-blown epileptiform discharges. A wide spectrum of cardiac arrhythmias was observed during and following the seizures. Epileptiform activities ranging from isolated or bursts of spikes and/or sharp waves to continuous epileptiform discharges were observed following local application of the drugs to the cerebral cortex.

Abstract
1 Effects of the heterocyclic amphetamine derivatives, pemoline (20 and 40 mg), prolintane hydrochloride (5 and 10 mg), methylphenidate hydrochloride (10 and 20 mg) and fencamfamine hydrochloride (10 and 20 mg), and of caffeine anhydrous (100, 200 and 300 mg) on sleep, were compared with placebo in six young adults (20-31 years) using electroencephalography for sleep measures and analogue scales for subjective assessments of well-being and sleep quality. The study was double-blind. 2 No consistent effect was found with pemoline. 3 With prolintane there were no changes in sleep latencies, or in slow wave sleep (SWS). Rapid eye movement (REM) sleep was reduced during the first 2 h after sleep onset. 4 With methylphenidate and fencamfamine latencies to sleep onset and to stage 3 sleep were unchanged. The higher dose of each drug delayed the first and subsequent REM periods. Both drugs reduced the duration of REM sleep, and the higher dose of each drug reduced the percentage REM sleep. Methylphenidate also reduced total sleep time (TST). There was no evidence of reduced SWS with either drug. Impairment of sleep was reported with each drug. 5 With caffeine there were no changes in latencies to sleep onset or to the first REM period, though in one study with 300 mg subsequent REM periods were delayed. Awake activity and drowsy sleep were increased and TST and SWS were decreased. With 300 mg only, REM sleep was decreased though percentage REM sleep was not altered. Impaired sleep was reported with all doses of caffeine.
