Alzheimer's disease and Parkinson's disease are both classified as neurodegenerative disorders that share common clinical features, including sleep and circadian rhythm dysfunction [1], inflammatory responses in the brain [2], and the presence of sleep abnormalities [3]. They are frequently grouped together as age-related conditions [4] and medical causes of sleep deprivation {fact:2, fact:7} or chronic inflammatory states [5].
