ABSTRACT The bidirectional interaction between sleep and epilepsy is well known. In particular, it has been established that sleep apnea can worsen epilepsy, whereas sleep apnea (SA) treatment has a beneficial effect on seizure control. However, the exact mechanisms whereby SA promotes epileptic seizures are unknown.

ABSTRACT Wearables that integrate actigraphy and pulse photoplethysmography (ACT + PPG) could represent a promising advancement in insomnia research and clinical practice. This especially applies to assessing objective sleep for a longer period in the home environment, which is impractical with ambulatory polysomnography (PSG) whereas actigraphy alone ...

The Sleep Opportunity, Need and Ability (SONA) Theory
ABSTRACT ‘How much sleep does one need?’ is a critical question that has been difficult to answer. The long history of sleep research has culminated in population‐derived normative values of 7 to 9 h of sleep per night to avoid dysfunction. Such a wide range is sufficiently large that one cannot know what is required for any given individual.
