中新网上海3月19日电(记者 陈静) 你是否曾在梦中拳打脚踢，甚至惊醒自己？这种看似电影般的场景可能是快速动眼睡眠行为障碍（Rapid Eye Movement Sleep Behavior Disorder, RMSBD）在作祟。RMSBD是一种睡眠障碍，患者在快速动眼睡眠阶段（REM）会出现梦境中的动作，这种行为在正常睡眠中是不会发生的。
上海的睡眠专家指出，RMSBD可能与大脑中控制肌肉放松的神经系统异常有关。通常在REM睡眠期间，人的肌肉会暂时瘫痪，以防止梦境中的动作被实际表现出来。然而，RMSBD患者的大脑无法发送正确的信号来保持肌肉松弛，导致他们在梦中活动。
这种睡眠障碍不仅会影响患者的睡眠质量，还可能导致睡眠中的伤害，如撞伤或跌落床下。专家建议，如果出现这类症状，应及早寻求医疗帮助，以获得适当的诊断和治疗。

SHANGHAI, March 19 (Xinhua) — Have you ever woken up from a dream where you were punching and kicking, as if you were in a boxing match? These seemingly movie-like scenarios may be caused by Rapid Eye Movement Sleep Behavior Disorder (RMSBD). RMSBD is a sleep disorder where individuals physically act out their dreams during REM sleep, a stage in which such actions are typically not carried out.
Sleep experts in Shanghai have pointed out that RMSBD may be related to abnormalities in the part of the brain that controls muscle relaxation. Normally, during REM sleep, a person’s muscles are temporarily paralyzed to prevent dream actions from being physically manifested. However, in individuals with RMSBD, the brain fails to send the correct signals to keep the muscles relaxed, resulting in dream-like activity.
This sleep disorder not only affects the quality of sleep but can also lead to injuries while sleeping, such as bumps or falls out of bed. Experts advise seeking medical attention if such symptoms occur to receive an appropriate diagnosis and treatment.
