Pragmatic Validation of Home Portable Sleep Monitor for diagnosing Obstructive Sleep Apnea in a non-referred population: The ELSA-Brasil study [PDF]
Objective: Polygraphy (PG) is an attractive alternative for diagnosing obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) in patients with high pre-test probability. However, several patients may not present typical symptoms.

A clinically translatable cell line can be engineered to produce leptin, encapsulated in biomaterial and safely implanted to produce and deliver the metabolic regulating protein within the body. Implantation of these encapsulated cells decreases the time it takes for mice and non‐human primates to adjust to circadian disruptions similar to those ...

Sleep in Young Children With Autism, ADHD and Combined Presentations
ABSTRACT Autism and attention deficit hyperactivity disorder (ADHD) are often accompanied by sleep problems. Longitudinal studies hint towards a greater proportion of persisting sleep problems across early development in neurodivergent compared to neurotypical individuals. Within the context of a prospective infant sibling study of autism and ADHD (n =

Validation of Actigraphy in Middle Childhood [PDF]
Few studies have examined the validity of actigraphy in school-aged children. The objective of this study was to examine the validity of a commonly used actigraph compared to polysomnography (PSG) in a sample of children age 5 to 12 y born prematurely, sleeping in their natural home environment.148 children born preterm (85 boys and 63 girls), ages 5 ...

ABSTRACT Background Obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) is one of the most common sleep disorders. Intermittent nocturnal hypoxia and sleep fragmentation in OSA may be among the main mechanisms triggering cognitive impairment and neurodegeneration. The study was to identify the relationships among plasma total tau (t‐tau) levels, Mini‐Mental State ...

The hidden burden of sleep in adolescents with idiopathic generalized epilepsy
Abstract Background Idiopathic Generalized Epilepsies (IGEs) are electroclinical syndromes characterized by distinct seizure types, EEG patterns, and presumed polygenic inheritance. While seizure prognosis is often favorable, sleep disturbances, behavioral and emotional difficulties, and executive function impairment are common, especially during ...
