Supragingival Microbiota Alterations in Individuals With Sleep Bruxism: A Pilot Study
ABSTRACT Background Sleep bruxism (SB) is an oral behaviour associated to jaw clenching or grinding of the teeth. Its aetiology is most likely multifactorial; however, recent studies suggested that SB is associated with activation of the sympathetic nervous system. Dysbiosis of the oral microbiota is linked to oral and systemic diseases.

Metrology of two wearable sleep trackers against polysomnography in patients with sleep complaints
Summary Sleep trackers are used widely by patients with sleep complaints, however their metrological validation is often poor and relies on healthy subjects. We assessed the metrological validity of two commercially available sleep trackers (Withings Activité/Fitbit Alta HR) through a prospective observational monocentric study, in adult patients ...

This scheme illustrates the main results of the present study showing an increase in circulating free fatty acids (FFA) that are likely to be related to several mechanisms like decrease in FFA insulin sensitivity and increase in FFA production. Significant changes are labelled in white, and non‐significant or hypothesis are labelled in pale green ...
