Night‐To‐Night Variability in Sleep Apnea Is Associated With Persistence and Burden of Device‐Detected Atrial Fibrillation

Journal of Sleep Research, EarlyView.
Device detected atrial fibrillation and sleep apnea. CV = coefficient of variation; RDI = Respiratory disturbance index. ABSTRACT Using pacemaker‐derived thoracic impedance monitoring, sleep apnea severity and its night‐to‐night variability can be continuously tracked in patients with implanted cardiac devices.

Enhanced Risk Stratification of Atrial Fibrillation Detected After Ischemic Stroke and TIA: The Role of Apnoea–Hypopnoea Index and Hypoxic Burden—A Study From the Bern Sleep‐Stroke Registry

Journal of Sleep Research, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Sleep‐disordered breathing is an independent risk factor for stroke and atrial fibrillation. Accurate assessment of atrial fibrillation in stroke patients with sleep‐disordered breathing is crucial for secondary prevention. This study aimed to determine whether combining apnoea–hypopnoea index and hypoxic burden improves risk stratification ...

The Pharyngeal Resistance Index—A Promising Diagnostic Tool in OSA

Journal of Sleep Research, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT This study investigates the newly developed pharyngeal resistance index derived from computational fluid dynamics analysis of the upper airway in patients with obstructive sleep apnea. The aim was to evaluate this index as a diagnostic and severity assessment tool by comparing it with the apnea‐hypopnea index before and after maxillomandibular

The Effect of Behavioral Sleep Interventions on Measures of Obesity, Dietary Intake and Physical Activity in Adults With Poor Sleep Health: A Systematic Review, Meta‐Analysis and Meta‐Regression Analysis

Obesity Reviews, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background As poor sleep negatively impacts on adiposity, there is interest in examining whether improving sleep can improve adiposity markers. We reviewed studies aimed at improving sleep using (1) cognitive behavioral therapy for insomnia (CBT‐I) and/or sleep hygiene and (2) sleep extension on adiposity markers, dietary intake, and physical ...
