Further reading

The resources in the Further reading section are over 20 years old, which by my layman's understanding is positively ancient. Snowman304|talk 07:54, 2 August 2024 (UTC)

Focus on non-encephalopathic etiology

While reading this article, I have noticed that while it focuses on encephalopathies alongside cycle introversion, it does not cover the possibility that disturbances might be from a factor causing insomnia during the night, which one compensates for during the day by sleeping (i.e caffenated beverages during the early morning). While it may be assumed that it is "obvious", all other medical articles on Wikipedia list "common-sense" reasons with esoteric ones (i.e "Caffeine" being used in the Sleep deprivation page, "Grief" as a differential on the MDD page, etc.)

In the presentation section, there are also issues because it doesn't explain why this article is different from other circadian conditions here. The presentation section lists late sleep hours, inability to change schedule reliably, and otherwise normal actual sleep time. I don't see how this is not semantically equivalent to the "Night owl" or "Delayed sleep phase disorder" page, which also lists these in order, and also considers that a night owl/DSPD patient may only feel sleepy hours after dawn. It is not clear if these are scenarios that the article doesn't consider due to the usage of the term "involuntary" at the start, but even then, circadian disorders can be absolutely involuntary, examples of this statement in the previous two wiki links. This article is massively lacking in information and is almost stub-like. While I am aware of WP:BEBOLD, I'm posting this here to get input for anything I potentially missed or if I am seeing issues where they do not exist as medicine is an extremely diverse field and I may be missing crucial context/information. 104.158.133.2 (talk) 10:38, 16 July 2025 (UTC)

Thank you all for your feedback! I just defined the CNS acronym to spell out Central Nervous System as one of you suggested. We will work on adding more citations within our article so it can be easier to link what we write about to the sources where we found the information from. Thanks!
