Prevalence of High Epworth Sleepiness Scale Scores in a Rural Population

open access: yesCanadian Respiratory Journal, 2012
BACKGROUND: Increased daytime sleepiness is an important symptom of obstructive sleep apnea (OSA). OSA is frequently underdiagnosed, and the Epworth Sleepiness Scale (ESS) can be a useful tool in alerting physicians to a potential problem involving OSA.

Evaluating the Role of α‐Synuclein Seed Amplification as a Disease Progression Marker: Evidence and Uncertainties

open access: yesMovement Disorders Clinical Practice, EarlyView.
Abstract Background α‐synuclein seeding amplification assay (α‐synuclein SAA) development as a diagnostic biomarker for Parkinson's disease (PD) has shown promising results over the past decade. However, the utility of these assays in the prediction of disease progression is unclear.

Comparison of Berlin Questionnaire, STOP-Bang, and Epworth Sleepiness Scale for Diagnosing Obstructive Sleep Apnea in Persian Patients

open access: yesInternational Journal of Preventive Medicine, 2018
Background: Obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) is a common disorder characterized by snoring, daytime sleepiness, fatigue, and repeated termination of airflow (apnea). Standard polysomnography (PSG) is diagnostic gold standard for OSA.

Clinical Progression in Alpha‐Synuclein Positive LRRK2‐PD and Sporadic Parkinson's Disease: A Longitudinal Analysis

open access: yesMovement Disorders Clinical Practice, EarlyView.
Abstract Background LRRK2‐Parkinson's disease (LRRK2‐PD) is biologically heterogeneous with approximately 30% lacking aggregated alpha synuclein (αSyn) in cerebrospinal fluid by seed amplification assay (SAA). Prior work has suggested slower progression in LRRK2‐PD compared to sporadic PD (sPD).

Progression of Motor and Cognitive Functions in Isolated REM Sleep Behavior Disorder: A 7‐Year Prospective Matched Cohort Study

open access: yesMovement Disorders, EarlyView.
Abstract Background Although clinical markers (eg, motor and cognitive impairment) in isolated rapid eye movement sleep behavior disorder (iRBD) are associated with faster phenoconversion, their longitudinal trajectory patterns (linear or nonlinear) remain unclear.
