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

Journal 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

Accelerometry for sleep assessment in children: Criterium validity of different algorithms in wrist‐ and ankle‐worn devices

Journal of Sleep Research, EarlyView.
Summary Polysomnography, the gold‐standard for measuring sleep, is costly, intrusive and usually limited to 1 night. Actigraphy offers a more affordable, less intrusive method over multiple nights. However, little research validates ActiGraph accelerometers against polysomnography, especially in children.

Performance evaluation of an under‐mattress sleep sensor versus polysomnography in > 400 nights with healthy and unhealthy sleep

Journal of Sleep Research, EarlyView.
Summary Consumer sleep trackers provide useful insight into sleep. However, large‐scale performance evaluation studies are needed to properly understand sleep tracker accuracy. This study evaluated performance of an under‐mattress sensor to estimate sleep and wake versus polysomnography in a large sample, including individuals with and without sleep ...

Actigraphy against 32‐hour polysomnography in patients with suspected idiopathic hypersomnia

Journal of Sleep Research, EarlyView.
Summary Actigraphy, a tool known for investigating sleep–wake patterns at home, lacks scientific validation in hypersomnolent subjects. We aim to validate an actigraphy‐based sleep–wake prediction algorithm against 32‐h continuous polysomnography in patients with suspected idiopathic hypersomnia, and to compare its performance to predict sleep–wake ...

Axial length normative data and percentile curves for schoolchildren in Taiwan: A tool for myopia monitoring

Ophthalmic and Physiological Optics, EarlyView.
Abstract Purpose The prevention and control of myopia are crucial public health issues. Therefore, this study aimed to construct reference percentile curves of age‐specific axial length based on population‐based sampling data of Taiwanese children and assess their role in the progression of myopia using a cohort of children undergoing orthokeratology ...

Functional Substrate Mapping Using Atrial Decrement Evoked Potentials to Predict Critical Isthmus of Atrial Tachycardia

Pacing and Clinical Electrophysiology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Recent reports highlighted the role of functional substrate mapping during sinus rhythm to predict the critical isthmus of left atrial tachycardias (AT). In this article, we reported a case of a 63‐year‐old female patient who was admitted with recurrent AT after pulmonary vein isolation.
