Estimation of Total Sleep Time From Respiratory Event Intervals in Sleep Disordered Breathing
ABSTRACT The correct identification of respiratory events and estimation of total sleep time (TST), done in a sleep clinic with polysomnography (PSG), are central elements in the diagnostic process of sleep‐disordered breathing and in the quantification of its severity with the apnoea‐hypopnea index (AHI). However, total sleep time may not be available

ABSTRACT Accurate peripheral blood oxygen saturation (SpO2) measurements are critical for evaluating sleep patients, particularly those with frequent desaturations due to pathological breathing events. We compared synchronised SpO2 measurements obtained from three anatomical sites (finger, forehead and toe) in patients undergoing routine Type 1 ...

The Development of the European Sleep Questionnaire A New Patient‐Reported Outcome Measure
ABSTRACT Sleep medicine relies on patient‐reported outcome measures (PROMs) to complement clinical interviews and objective sleep tests. Available sleep questionnaires focus on isolated symptoms or single disorders, limiting their ability to capture the complexity of sleep conditions. Also, many PROMs remain poorly validated.

Sleep in Trans and Non‐Binary Individuals: A Question of Gender?
ABSTRACT Sleep problems are increasingly prevalent in society. One group that is disproportionately affected includes transgender and non‐binary individuals, whose sex assigned at birth does not match their identified gender. This mismatch can lead to gender minority stress and increases the risk of mental disorders.

Insomnia and Snoring in Relation to Future Psychological Distress and Daytime Symptoms in Women
ABSTRACT Anxiety, depression and daytime symptoms (sleepiness, tiredness) are overrepresented in people with snoring and insomnia, but the associations are not completely understood. We aimed to investigate relationships between insomnia and snoring with future psychological distress and daytime symptoms.

Snoring is a common sleep-related breathing condition, affecting up to 78% of adult men and 59% of adult women. It is included as a so-called dental sleep condition in a relatively new offshoot of dentistry, namely “Dental Sleep Medicine”, which includes, among others, obstructive sleep apnea (OSA), sleep bruxism, temporomandibular disorders (TMD ...

ABSTRACT Machine learning provides a powerful tool to capture complex, nonlinear patterns in biomedical data and enhance precision risk stratification. In this study, we applied a multilayer perceptron (MLP) framework to classify Framingham Risk Score–based cardiovascular risk categories in patients with obstructive sleep apnea (OSA).

ABSTRACT Central disorders of hypersomnolence are characterised by excessive daytime sleepiness. There has been growing interest in analysing sleep micro‐architecture, to further understand how sleep is affected by these conditions. We investigated if sleep spindle activity differed between children with narcolepsy, idiopathic hypersomnolence (IH) and ...

ABSTRACT Nasal breathing is the preferred route of breathing during sleep. Indeed, nasal blockage can cause obstructive sleep apnoea (OSA) in otherwise healthy people. Whilst multi‐level pharyngeal surgery reduces OSA severity, efficacy varies and changes in OSA pathophysiology post‐surgery have not been well characterised.

ABSTRACT Women with obstructive sleep apnoea (OSA) report more severe functional impairments than men, despite lower apnoea‐hypopnoea index (AHI) values. This raises questions about the adequacy of AHI for capturing OSA severity. We explored sex differences in functional outcomes in OSA patients and examined whether AHI or hypoxic burden (HB) better ...
