Long‐Term Results of UPPP and Coblation Channeling of the Tongue for Obstructive Sleep Apnea

open access: yesWorld Journal of Otorhinolaryngology - Head and Neck Surgery, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Objective To evaluate the long‐term surgical outcomes of combined uvulopalatopharyngoplasty (UPPP) and coblation channeling of the tongue (CCT) for moderate‐to‐severe obstructive sleep apnea (OSA). Methods The study enrolled patients with moderate‐to‐severe OSA who underwent treatment with UPPP plus CCT and had a minimal follow‐up of 2 years ...

Feasibility and usability of three consecutive nights with self‐applied, home polysomnography

open access: yesJournal of Sleep Research, Volume 34, Issue 2, April 2025.
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 ...

EOG feature relevance determination for microsleep detection

open access: yesCurrent Directions in Biomedical Engineering, 2017
Automatic relevance determination (ARD) was applied to two-channel EOG recordings for microsleep event (MSE) recognition. 10 s immediately before MSE and also before counterexamples of fatigued, but attentive driving were analysed.

Freeze the BCI until the user is ready: a pilot study of a BCI inhibitor [PDF]

open access: yes, 2011
In this paper we introduce the concept of Brain-Computer Interface (BCI) inhibitor, which is meant to standby the BCI until the user is ready, in order to improve the overall performance and usability of the system.

Sleep and cardiac autonomic modulation in older adults: Insights from an at‐home study with auditory deep sleep stimulation

open access: yesJournal of Sleep Research, Volume 34, Issue 2, April 2025.
Summary The autonomic nervous system regulates cardiovascular activity during sleep, likely impacting cardiovascular health. Aging, a primary cardiovascular risk factor, is associated with cardiac autonomic disbalance and diminished sleep slow waves. Therefore, slow waves may be linked to aging, autonomic activity and cardiovascular health. However, it

Validation of OSLER Test Against Maintenance of Wakefulness Test and the Association With Subjective Measures of Sleepiness

open access: yesJournal of Sleep Research, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The ability to stay awake is crucial in life and can be compromised by insufficient sleep and medical conditions. Measuring alertness is important for evaluating driving ability and the Oxford Sleep Resistance (OSLER) test may provide an easy way for assessment.
