Human Gene Set: HP_ABNORMAL_RAPID_EYE_MOVEMENT_SLEEP


Standard name HP_ABNORMAL_RAPID_EYE_MOVEMENT_SLEEP
Systematic name M35860
Brief description Abnormal rapid eye movement sleep
Full description or abstract Abnormality of REM Sleep are phases of REM sleep are characterized by desynchronized EEG patterns, increases in heart rate and blood pressure, sympathetic activation, and a profound loss of muscle tone except for the eye and middle-ear muscles. There are also phases of rapid eye movements. [PMID:31910377, PMID:32179430]
