ESS scores were higher in males than in females, whereas females had higher Pittsburgh Sleep Quality Index (PSQI) scores and Hospital Anxiety and Depression Scale (HADS) scores. Male sex and higher de...
The characteristics and influencing factors of EDS differ between the sexes in patients with mild and moderate ischaemic stroke. Our study may provide evidence and guidance for clinical diagnosis and ...
Some studies show an association between the apolipoprotein E ε4 allele (ApoEε4) and obstructive sleep apnea syndrome (OSAS), and other studies, an association between ApoEε4 and excessive daytime sle...
To examine the cognitive function of adults with and without EDS and with and without ApoEε4....
A total of 21 male and female patients aged between 33 and 79 years, underwent a clinical interview, ApoE genotyping, neuropsychological evaluation, polysomnography, and the application of the Epworth...
Excessive daytime sleepiness was associated with lower intelligence quotient (IQ; total performance) and worse immediate visual memory, regardless of the ApoE genotype. Patients carrying the ApoEε3/ε4...
Excessive daytime sleepiness and the ApoEε3/ε4 genotype are associated with worse cognitive performance in OSA patients. The combination of EDS and ε4 allele potentiates cognitive impairment....
Excessive daytime sleepiness (EDS) is a cardinal symptom of narcolepsy and affects many patients with obstructive sleep apnoea (OSA). EDS is associated with reduced quality of life, increased accident...
Data were obtained from the Europe 2016/2017 National Health and Wellness Survey, an online, general population survey, designed to represent the age and gender composition of each country's adult pop...
Utility decreased as EDS severity increased (no EDS: 0.711 ± 0.251, mild: 0.685 ± 0.261, moderate: 0.643 ± 0.268, severe: 0.559 ± 0.323). Whereas participants with only OSA or only narcolepsy did not ...
This study demonstrates the impact of sleepiness on quality of life (QoL) and its negative impact irrespective of sleep condition (OSA or narcolepsy). The breakpoint identified is relatively consisten...
Commonly utilised metrics such as the apnoea-hypopnoea index show limited correlation to excessive daytime sleepiness (EDS). Oxygen desaturation parameters show better predictive power, however oxygen...
Oxygen saturation parameters were computed via ABOSA software for adult patients referred for polysomnography and multiple sleep latency test in Israel Loewenstein hospital 2001-2011. EDS was defined ...
1629 patients (75% male, 53% obese, median age of 54 years) were included for analysis. The average desaturation event nadir was 90.4% and resaturation rate 0.59%/second. Median MSL was 9.6 min, and 6...
Oxygen resaturation parameters show significant associations with objectively assessed EDS independent of desaturation parameters. Thus, resaturation and desaturation parameters may reflect differing ...
Excessive daytime sleepiness (EDS) is a hallmark symptom in obstructive sleep apnea (OSA). It is commonly eliminated by obstructive sleep apnea therapy and constitutes a major treatment indication. Th...
Obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) is associated with atrial fibrillation (AF) in cardiac cohorts. Less is known regarding the magnitude of this association in a sleep clinic cohort with vs. without excess...
To explore the association of OSA severity with AF in a sleep clinic cohort stratified by EDS....
All consecutive adults (n = 3814) admitted to the Skaraborg Hospital, Sweden between Jan 2005 and December 2011 were registered in a local database, and the follow-up ended in December 2018. OSA was d...
In all, 202 patients (5.3%) had AF at baseline, 1.6% in no-OSA, 3.9% in mild OSA, 5.2% in moderate OSA, and 7.6% in severe OSA, respectively (p < 0.001). The stratified analyzes revealed that patients...
There was an independent dose-response relationship between OSA and prevalent AF among the non-sleepy phenotype in this sleep clinic cohort. Since adherence to OSA treatment is challenging in the abse...
To describe the prevalence of insufficient sleep duration, long sleep latency, terminal or maintenance insomnia, subjective sleep quality, and excessive daytime sleepiness among participants of birth ...
Cross-sectional analyses involving adolescents and adults participating in four birth cohorts conducted in Ribeirão Preto (RP78 and RP94), Pelotas (PEL93) and São Luís (SL97/98). Sleep duration, laten...
Insufficient sleep duration was the most common outcome at the four cohorts, with higher frequency among men. Long latency was more frequently reported by young adult women in RP94 and PEL93 cohorts, ...
Sleep disorders are more prevalent in women, reinforcing the need for greater investment in sleep health in Brazil, without disregarding gender and socioeconomic determinants....
Excessive daytime sleepiness (EDS) is a common sleep disorder in Parkinson's disease (PD), which seriously affects patients' quality of life. Repetitive transcranial magnetic stimulation (rTMS) can be...
To explore the effects of low frequency rTMS over right dorsolateral prefrontal cortex (DLPFC) in the treatment of EDS in PD....
We conducted a sham-controlled, parallel study including 25 individuals of PD with possible EDS based on Epworth Sleepiness Scale (ESS ≥8 points) and randomly divided them into active group (n = 15) a...
Compared to baseline, active group showed significant improvement on ESS score 10 days and 1 month after treatment (P < 0.05 for both). The percentage change of ESS score was positively related to dis...
Low frequency rTMS over right DLPFC may improve symptoms of EDS in PD....
Sleepiness is a frequent and underrecognized symptom in neurological disorders, that impacts functional outcomes and quality of life. Multiple and potentially additive factors might contribute to slee...
Assessing the effects of Mindfulness-Based Stress Reduction (MBSR) on symptoms of OSA, especially on the primary outcome, excessive daytime sleepiness (EDS)....
Parallel randomized controlled trial. 16 OSA patients with residual EDS (rEDS) were randomized and assigned to either a standardized 8-week MBSR program or a time-matched program on Acceptance and Com...
There was a significant difference between the MBSR (n = 7) and ACT group (n = 6) in changes of EDS between pre and post (Cohen's d = 1.24, CI [0.01, 2.42]) and a significant reduction of EDS for pati...
ACT shows potential as adjunctive therapy for OSA with rEDS, although further studies are needed. It seems promising to develop therapeutic approaches for OSA with rEDS using ACT, especially if they a...
