Results from this study1

No result from this study comes from a test of the peptide.

Natural levels measured1

These results measure the body's own peptide. Nobody was given the peptide. They are not evidence about taking it. They are left out of key results, evidence counts and charts.

    In patients with good outcomes after aneurysmal subarachnoid hemorrhage, higher cerebrospinal fluid levels of the body's own delta sleep-inducing peptide correlated with cognitive impairment.

    In plain wordsIn patients after a brain bleed, higher levels of the body's own DSIP in spinal fluid were linked to cognitive impairment.

    Summary
    However, significant correlations between cognitive impairment and elevated levels of beta-endorphins (P = 0.02), corticotropin-releasing factor (P = 0.004), and delta sleep-inducing peptide (P = 0.045) were noted.
    2 context sentences
    Summary · context
    Lumbar cerebrospinal fluid was obtained, 3 to 6 months after surgery, from 17 patients who experienced good outcomes after aneurysmal SAH.
    Summary · context
    The samples were analyzed for various neuropeptides using radioimmunoassays, and the peptide concentrations were evaluated in relation to scores on standardized neuropsychological tests.

    This result measures the body's own Delta sleep-inducing peptide (DSIP). Nobody was given the peptide. It is not evidence about taking it.
