Recent animal research has revealed the intricate dynamics of arousal levels that are potentially crucial for maintaining proper sleep resilience and memory consolidation. Also in humans, changes in arousal level are believed to be a determining characteristic of healthy and pathological sleep but tracking arousal fluctuations has been methodologically challenging. Here we measured pupil size, an established indicator of arousal levels, during overnight sleep and tested whether the arousal level affects cortical response to auditory stimulation. We show that pupil size dynamics change as a function of sleep macrostructure and microstructural events. In particular, pupil size is inversely related to the occurrence of sleep spindle clusters, a marker of sleep resilience. Additionally, pupil size prior to auditory stimulation influences the evoked response, most notably in delta power, a marker of several restorative and regenerative functions of sleep. Recording pupil size dynamics provides novel insights into the interplay between arousal levels and sleep oscillations, opening new avenues for future research and clinical applications in diagnosing and treating pathological sleep associated with abnormal arousal levels. ### Competing Interest Statement The authors have declared no competing interest.
5. On the Efficacy of a CBT-I-Based Online Program for Sleep Problems

There is an urgent need for easily accessible treatment options for sleep problems to reduce the current treatment gap in receiving cognitive behavioral therapy for insomnia (CBT-I). Using a randomized controlled trial, we evaluated the efficacy of a CBT-I-based online program on sleep. Fifty-three volunteers (21–71 years; MAge = 44.6 ± 12.5; 27 female) suffering from impaired sleep were randomly allocated either to the experimental group (EG, n = 27) or to an active control group (CG, n = 26). The EG participated in a 6-week CBT-I-based online program, while the CG received psychoeducation and sleep hygiene instructions. Sleep was assessed both objectively via ambulatory polysomnography (PSG) as well as subjectively via questionnaires at three time points (baseline, pre- and post-intervention). A one-month follow-up assessment was performed using questionnaires. The EG showed small but reliable improvements from pre- to post-intervention in PSG-derived wake after sleep onset (from 58.6 min to 42.5 min; p < 0.05) and sleep efficiency (from 86.0% to 89.2%; p < 0.05). Furthermore, subjective sleep quality (assessed via Pittsburgh Sleep Quality Index) improved significantly during intervention (p = 0.011) and follow-up (p = 0.015) in the EG alone. The Insomnia Severity Index decreased from pre- to post-intervention in both groups (EG: p = 0.003, CG: p = 0.008), while it further improved during follow-up (p = 0.035) in the EG alone. We show that a CBT-I-based online program can i...
