| ARTICLES RELATED TO Sleep Paralysis | | | |  Sleep Paralysis: Encyclopedia II - Stroke - PrognosisDisability affects 75% of stroke survivors enough to decrease their employability (Coffey et al., 2000 p.601). Stroke can affect patients physically, mentally, emotionally, or a combination of the three. The results of stroke vary widely depending on size and location of the lesion (Stanford, 2005). Dysfunctions correspond to areas in the brain that have been damaged.
Some of the physical disabilities that can result from stroke include paralysis, numbness, pressure sores, pneumonia, incontinence, apraxia (inability to perform learned ...

| | | | | Sleep Paralysis: Encyclopedia II - Men in Black - Possible explanations Men In Black accounts often feature "High Strangeness" or the Oz Factor (the latter term coined by ufologist Jenny Randles). Both terms are used to describe a strange sensation of "otherness", or of a dreamlike dissociation that accompanies some UFO reports. Such reports have led to speculation that Men In Black accounts are not part of any objective reality, but are rather best explained by altered states of consciousness, such as fantasy-prone personali ...

| | | | | Sleep Paralysis: Encyclopedia II - False memory - Background It is common experience that memory is unreliable to some degree, whether by failing to remember things or remembering incorrectly. Less commonly known is the fact that eyewitness identification in criminal cases is another example of unreliable memory, recently addressed by changes in police procedure in a number of states and counties in the United States. (Of the first 130 DNA exonerations, 111, or about 85%, were mistaken-ID cases.)
Yet there is considerable controversy connected with false memories. Our sense of identity, of who ...

| | | | | Sleep Paralysis: Encyclopedia II - Men in Black - Appearance & Behavior Some MIB are described as essentially normal in appearance, but others are said to be quite strange, whether in appearcance or behavior. John Keel thought that many MIB were of an "Asian" or "Oriental" appearance, though he also though this description was inadequate, and hinted that some MIB might not be human.
Witnesses sometimes describe MIB behavior as often odd, or belligerent and threatening, and are often noticeably unfamiliar with everyday common courtesies and civil behavior. They are also recalled as often speaking in archaic or obscure forms of slang English, or using odd sentence construction ...

| | | | | Sleep Paralysis: Encyclopedia II - Men in Black - Actuality The actuality of Men in Black has been the subject of debate. No incontrovertible evidence has been presented in favor of MIB's reality. Furthermore, testimony of supposed witnesses is typically the only evidence presented in alleged MIB encounters, and eyewitness testimony--however compelling it might seem--can be notoriously unreliable, and is therefore nearly always open to doubt.

| | | | | Sleep Paralysis: Encyclopedia II - Brooke English - Brooke the wild teenager. Brooke Allison English arrived in 1976 in Pine Valley where she moved into her Aunt Phoebe's mansion. She then began seeing both Dan Kennicott as well as her old flame, Benny Sago. Brooke was almost sent home by Phoebe until Benny intervened and blackmailed her.

Her interest in the two men soon withered when she met Tom Cudahy, a football star. Unfortunately, the equally wild Erica Kane had her eyes on him and eventually got Tom to marry her. The long-standing rivalry bet ...

| | | | | Sleep Paralysis: Encyclopedia II - Traumatic brain injury - Effects on consciousness Generally, there are five abnormal states of consciousness that can result from a TBI: stupor, coma, persistent vegetative state, locked-in syndrome, and brain death.
Stupor is a state in which the patient is unresponsive but can be aroused briefly by a strong stimulus, such as sharp pain. Coma is a state in which the patient is totally unconscious, unresponsive, unaware, and unarousable.
Patients in a persistent vegetative state are unconscious and unaware of their surroundings, but they continue to have a sleep-wake cycle and ...

| | | | | | | | Sleep Paralysis: Encyclopedia II - Thermoregulation - Limits compatible with life There are limits both of heat and cold that a warm-blooded animal can bear, and other far wider limits that a cold-blooded animal may endure and yet live. The effect of too extreme a cold is to lessen metabolism, and hence to lessen the production of heat. Both catabolic and anabolic changes share in the depression, and though less energy is used up, still less energy is generated. This diminished metabolism tells first on the central nervous system, especially the brain and those parts concerned in consciousness. Both heart rate and respira ...

| | | | | Sleep Paralysis: Encyclopedia II - False memory - Criticisms of recovered memory therapy Although there is genuine concern that important memories may be buried and need uncovering, there is concern that the goal of neutral truth may be forgotten, compared to the belief that they must exist and be found, and that lives are therefore devastated by the pressure to find such memories when such events often may not have happened, or may be misinterpreted.
Critics, such as FMS advocates, claim that recovered memory therapists often have a non-neutral interest in proving that such experiences happened, and use techniques simila ...

| | | | | Sleep Paralysis: Encyclopedia II - Hypoglycemia - Hypoglycemia as American folk medicine Hypoglycemia is also a term of contemporary American folk medicine which refers to a recurrent state of symptoms of altered mood and cognitive efficiency, sometimes accompanied by adrenergic symptoms, but not necessarily by measured low blood glucose. Symptoms are primarily those of altered mood, behavior, and mental efficiency. This condition is usually treated by dietary changes which range from simple to elaborate.
This condition therefore overlaps with the definition and forms of hypoglycemia described ...

| | | | | Sleep Paralysis: Encyclopedia II - Hypoglycemia - Pathophysiology: why low blood sugar primarily affects the brain Like most animal tissues, brain metabolism depends primarily on glucose for fuel in most circumstances. A limited amount of glucose can be derived from glycogen stored in astrocytes, but it is consumed within minutes. For most practical purposes, the brain is dependent on a continual supply of glucose diffusing from the blood into the interstitial tissue within the central nervous system and into the neurons themselves.
Therefore, if the amount of glucose supplied by the blood falls, the brain is one of the first organs affected. In m ...

| | | | | Sleep Paralysis: Encyclopedia II - Men in Black - Overview There are various types of MIB encounters, but they typically follow a pattern: after a presumably credible witness reports or witnesses a UFO sighting, the witness is visited by a man or men who are often dressed in black suits, lending the reports their name. The men suggest—or the witnesses assume—that they are government agents, and often flash convincing-looking badges and demand that the witness recant their story or hand over photographs or physical evidence of a UFO. If the witness refuses or questions their credentials, they often subtly or not-so-subtly threaten the witness or their f ...

| | | | | Sleep Paralysis: Encyclopedia II - Home hemodialysis - History of home hemodialysis Home hemodialysis started in the early 1960s. Who started it is in dispute. Groups in Boston, London, Seattle[14] and Hokkaido all have a claim.
The Hokkaido group was slightly ahead of the others, with Nosé's publication of his PhD thesis (in 1962), which described treating patients outside of the hospital for acute renal failure due to drug overdoses. In 1963, he attempted to publish these cases in the ASAIO Journal but was unsuccessful, which wa ...

| | | | | Sleep Paralysis: Encyclopedia II - Abduction phenomenon - History The notion of being kidnapped by extraterrestrials goes back at least to the mid-1950s, with the Antonio Villas Boas case (which didn't receive much attention until years later). Widespread publicity was generated by the Barney and Betty Hill abduction case of the 1961, perhaps culminating in a made for television film broadcast in 1975 (starring James Earl Jones and Estelle Parsons) dramatizing the events
If we include such clearly fictional sources as science fiction movies and pulps, the phenomena might be traced back to the 1930s. ...
