This scheme illustrates the main results of the present study showing an increase in circulating free fatty acids (FFA) that are likely to be related to several mechanisms like decrease in FFA insulin sensitivity and increase in FFA production. Significant changes are labelled in white, and non‐significant or hypothesis are labelled in pale green ...

Association between obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) and COVID‐19 severity
Summary Obstructive sleep apnea and sleep‐related hypoxia have been associated with higher rates of hospitalization and mortality among patients with Coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID‐19). We further explored the association between obstructive sleep apnea, COVID‐19 severity and related mortality.

The dynamics of cyclic‐periodic phenomena during non‐rapid and rapid eye movement sleep
Summary Sleep is a complex physiological state characterized by distinct stages, each exhibiting unique electroencephalographic patterns and physiological phenomena. Sleep research has unveiled the presence of intricate cyclic‐periodic phenomena during both non‐rapid eye movement and rapid eye movement sleep stages. These phenomena encompass a spectrum

Feasibility and usability of three consecutive nights with self‐applied, home polysomnography
Summary In‐laboratory polysomnography, the gold‐standard for diagnosing sleep disorders, is resource‐demanding and not conducive to multiple night evaluations. Ambulatory polysomnography, especially when self‐applied, could be a viable alternative. This study aimed to assess the feasibility and reliability of self‐applied polysomnography over three ...

Summary Sleep‐disordered breathing (SDB) is linked to cognitive dysfunction. Although SDB is common in stroke patients, the impact of SDB and its early treatment on cognitive functioning after stroke remains poorly investigated. Therefore, we explored the association between SDB and post‐stroke cognitive functioning, including the impact of early SDB ...

Sex‐based disparities in dopamine agonist response in patients with restless legs syndrome
Summary This study aimed to investigate sex‐related differences in the response to ropinirole and pramipexole in patients with restless legs syndrome (RLS). By analysing clinical parameters and polysomnographic (PSG) findings, we sought to elucidate the potential factors related to sex disparities modulating treatment responses and sleep quality in RLS.
