Prediction of sleep parameter and response to sleep-inducing compound based on PER3 VNTR genotype

摘要

The invention relates to the prediction of a sleep parameter (e.g., sleep efficiency (SE), latency to persistent sleep (LPS), wake after sleep onset (WASO), total sleep time (TST)) of an individual and the response of such an individual to a sleep inducing compound based on the individual's PER3 variable number tandem repeat (VNTR) genotype.
