Self‐Reported Precipitating and Priming Factors for Somnambulism in Adult Sleepwalkers

Journal of Sleep Research, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Several studies have explored how factors that deepen sleep (e.g., sleep deprivation) and factors that fragment sleep (e.g., environmental stimuli) facilitate the occurrence of somnambulistic episodes experienced by sleepwalkers in the sleep laboratory.

Obstructive sleep apnea: Clinical and diagnostic features

Indian Journal of Dental Research, 2009
Obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) is an increasingly common disorder. It is characterized by frequent episodes of airway obstruction associated with a reduced caliber of the upper airway and is vulnerable to further narrowing and collapse.

A Comparison of Snoring Changes With a Supine‐Avoidance Alarm Device Compared to Constant Positive Airway Pressure Treatment in Patients With Supine‐Predominant OSA

Journal of Sleep Research, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT This study aimed to quantify how much snoring occurs in patients with supine‐predominant OSA and the comparative effectiveness of supine‐avoidance therapy versus CPAP to reduce objective measures of snoring. Participants had a 1‐week in‐home sleep posture assessment and a in‐home PSG study before being randomised to either CPAP or supine ...

Wake EEG and Sleep Hypoxemia Predicts Poor Driving and Vigilance Following Extended Wakefulness in People With OSA

Journal of Sleep Research, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Obstructive sleep apnoea (OSA) is a highly prevalent but heterogeneous condition which makes identifying patients at risk of vigilance and driving impairment clinically challenging. Resting wake electroencephalography (EEG) is associated with vigilance performance in healthy participants.

The Effects of Daridorexant on Patients With Comorbid Insomnia Disorder and Untreated Mild Obstructive Sleep Apnoea: A Post Hoc Subgroup Analysis of a Phase 3, Randomised Clinical Trial

Journal of Sleep Research, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Daridorexant, a dual orexin receptor antagonist, is approved for the treatment of insomnia disorder in adults. Approximately 30%–35% of patients with insomnia disorder also have obstructive sleep apnoea (OSA) of any severity. It is unclear whether sleep medications provide safe and effective treatment for insomnia in these patients.

Hypoxic Load and Average Oxygen‐Saturation During Sleep and Wake Are Associated With Cognitive Function in Obstructive Sleep Apnea

Journal of Sleep Research, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Cognitive processes commonly affected by obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) are more strongly associated with hypoxic load parameters than the apnea‐hypopnea index (AHI). Additionally, lower SpO2 during wake affects cognition, emphasising the need for concurrent assessment with sleep SpO2.
