Sleep studies for sleep apnoea [PDF]
Physiological Measurement, 2002 Sleep studies have grown to encompass a broad range of technologies employed to study and diagnose a variety of sleep disorders. From their inception in neurophysiology laboratories interested in investigating primary disorders of sleep architecture from psychiatric illness, their remit has widened such that their most common role is currently to ...

Journal of clinical sleep medicine : JCSM : official publication of the American Academy of Sleep Medicine, 2009 BACKGROUND Obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) is a common chronic disorder that often requires lifelong care. Available practice parameters provide evidence-based recommendations for addressing aspects of care. OBJECTIVE This guideline is designed to assist

Genetics of sleep and sleep disorders [PDF]
Cellular and Molecular Life Sciences, 2007 Genetic factors affect sleep. Studies in twin pairs demonstrate that the strong hereditary influences on sleep architecture and some sleep disorders are transmitted through families. Evidence like this strongly suggests that sleep regulation receives significant influence from genetic factors.

Is Sleep-Related Eating Disorder (SRED) a NREM Parasomnia or a Heterogenous Disease?
Clinical and Translational Neuroscience, 2023 Sleep-related eating disorder (SRED) is a relatively rare but probably underestimated disorder, where affected patients exhibit nocturnal eating episodes with impaired consciousness and subsequent amnesia. SRED has originally been classified as NREM (non-

Treating restless legs syndrome in the context of sleep disordered breathing comorbidity
European Respiratory Review, 2019 Obstructive sleep apnoea (OSA) and restless legs syndrome (RLS) are two of the most prevalent sleep disorders and can coexist within the same patient. Nonetheless, the recognition of RLS among OSA patients has important clinical implications, since RLS ...

High night-to-night variability in sleep apnea severity is associated with uncontrolled hypertension
npj Digital Medicine, 2023 Obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) severity can vary markedly from night-to-night. However, the impact of night-to-night variability in OSA severity on key cardiovascular outcomes such as hypertension is unknown.
