Impaired Alertness Correlates With Chronic Anxiety: A Prospective Tertiary University Centre Cohort
ABSTRACT The Maintenance of Wakefulness Test (MWT) is a widely used objective measure of daytime alertness, especially in patients with sleep disorders at increased risk of accidents. Anxiety and depression are common in this population and may influence subjective sleepiness and objective alertness.

Comparison of Actigraphy and Polysomnography in a Sleep Centre Cohort
MotionWatch 8 actigraphy correlated most strongly with PSG for total sleep time and showed modest group‐level bias, but wide individual limits of agreement precluded interchangeability. PLMS modified actigraphy‐PSG differences, while recording setting influenced actigraphy‐derived sleep continuity across home and inpatient recordings.

FXTAS and the Spectrum of FMR1 Premutation‐Associated Phenotypes in Latin America: A Scoping Review
Abstract Background Fragile X–associated tremor/ataxia syndrome (FXTAS) is a late‐onset neurodegenerative disorder caused by FMR1 premutation expansions (55–200 CGG repeats). Although well described in populations of predominantly European ancestry, FXTAS remains poorly characterized in Latin America due to limited awareness, restricted access to ...

Clinical Variability and Genotype‐Driven Outcomes in CHRND‐Related Congenital Myasthenic Syndrome
Clinical variability in CHRND‐related congenital myasthenic syndrome ranges from isolated ocular involvement to severe neonatal‐onset disease with respiratory insufficiency. In a multicenter cohort of nine patients, ocular symptoms represented the core phenotype, while disease severity was influenced by genotype and presumed residual acetylcholine ...

Cerebrospinal fluid monoamine levels in central disorders of hypersomnolence
International audienceAbstract Study Objectives Whether the cause of daytime sleepiness in narcolepsy type 1 (NT1) is a direct consequence of the loss of orexin (ORX) neurons or whether low orexin reduces the efficacy of the monoaminergic systems to ...
