Sleep Architecture research study
What is the primary objective of this study?
The increasing incidence of Alzheimer's disease (AD) and related sleep-disorders with the aging of the population is a major issue of public health. The prevalence of sleep disturbances is about 50% in dementia patients. Sleep in dementia is mainly characterized by prolonged night-time awakenings, sometimes with longer sleep latency and/or early awakening. The presence of these sleep disturbances is the main reason for the institutionalization of AD patients, as well as a major cause of the deterioration of the caregivers' sleep. The MEMENTO cohort is composed of patients with isolated memory complaints or mild cognitive impairment, at high risk to develop dementia. All voluntary patients from the CMRR (Center of Memory, resources and Research) of Bordeaux (MEMENTO cohort) will be tested at inclusion and followed-up 1 year later. For these two evaluations, actigraphic monitoring at home, 2-night polysomnography (PSG) monitoring at hospital including a 24-hour period of urinary melatonin dosage, neuropsychological tests battery, a virtual reality tool and questionnaires will be used.

Study Arms
Research studies and clinical trials typically have two or more research arms. An arm is a group of people who receive the same treatment in the study.
Patients from Memento cohort.Patients with mild cognitive impairment included in MEMENTO cohort. These patients will have a 2 night polysomnography, a battery of neuropsychological tests, a virtual reality test, and a subjective evaluation of sleep and somnolence at inclusion (Month 0) and Month 12.
Patients with memory disordersPatients with mild cognitive impairment not included in MEMENTO cohort. For these patients a virtual reality test, and a subjective evaluation of sleep and somnolence will be performed at Inclusion (Month 0)
Healthy volunteersHealthy volunteers matched in age, sex and educational level with patients. For these volunteers a virtual reality test, and a subjective evaluation of sleep and somnolence will be performed at Inclusion (Month 0)
control groupthis group is composed with Healthy volunteers these volunteers will have a 2 night polysomnography, a battery of neuropsychological tests, a virtual reality test, and a subjective evaluation of sleep and somnolence at inclusion (Month 0) and Month 12.
