BFS was classified in the fourth revision of the Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders (DSM-IV) as a culture-bound syndrome.

Nocturnal lagophthalmos is the inability to close the eyelids during sleep. [2] It may reduce the quality of sleep, cause exposure-related symptoms or, if severe, cause corneal damage (exposure keratopathy). The degree of lagophthalmos can be minor (obscure lagophthalmos) or quite obvious.
The exact cause of ALO is not yet fully understood. Despite its name, it is not a true apraxia , but thought to be due to a supranuclear origin of abnormal neuronal activity. Voluntary eyelid opening involves the simultaneous activation of the levator palpebrae superioris muscle and the inhibition of the orbicularis oculi muscle .
Forty-one were told to sleep on their right side, and 22 were told to sleep on their left. Then the people were interviewed about their dreams. Right-side sleepers weren't off the hook, however ...
One theory (Kristina Palacio) [6] [7] explains usog in terms of child distress that leads to greater susceptibility to illness and diseases. There are observations that a stranger (or a newcomer or even a visiting relative) especially someone with a strong personality (physically big, boisterous, has strong smell, domineering, etc.) may easily distress a child.
