Decrease of excessive daytime sleepiness after shunt treatment for normal pressure hydrocephalus

Journal of Sleep Research, Volume 34, Issue 2, April 2025.
Summary Sleepiness and apathy are often reported in patients with normal pressure hydrocephalus. However, research on outcomes after shunt surgery has mainly focused on the classical triad symptoms, that is, gait, cognition, and bladder dysfunction. This study aimed to describe the effects of shunt treatment on excessive daytime sleepiness and whether ...

Overnight Dynamics of Ventricular Cerebrospinal Fluid Amyloid‐Beta, Lactate and Hypocretin in Patients With Hydrocephalus: A Pilot Study

Journal of Sleep Research, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT This pilot observational study evaluated whether frequent overnight sampling of ventricular cerebrospinal fluid could clarify how sleep, hypocretin and lactate relate to amyloid‐β42 dynamics in adults with hydrocephalus. Seven participants underwent hourly ventricular cerebrospinal fluid sampling from early evening to late morning during ...

Charlson comorbidity index applied to shunted idiopathic normal pressure hydrocephalus

Scientific Reports, 2023
A series of epidemiological studies have shown the limited life expectancy of patients suffering from idiopathic normal pressure hydrocephalus (iNPH). In most cases, comorbid medical conditions are the cause of death, rather than iNPH. Though it has also

Effect of artificial gravity on calcaneal bone marrow adipose tissue and mineral content in female and male participants in 60 days of bed rest

Experimental Physiology, EarlyView.
Abstract Modulation of bone marrow adipose tissue (BMAT) with prolonged inactivity was reported in haemopoietic but not in non‐haemopoietic bones. This prospective randomized controlled trial submitted 16 men and 8 women to 60 days of 6° head‐down‐tilt bed rest.
