TL;DR: Sleep related complaints are commonly reported in patients with PD and may form an important determinant of their quality of life and interactions among genetic and environmental factors may play an important role in the development of and also explain the difference in sleep disturbances in these groups.

TL;DR: Almost half of the patients with refractory focal seizures have a coexistent psychiatric disorder, and its presence or absence cannot be predicted by their clinical profiles, so all patients should be assessed and treated for psychiatric comorbidity to improve overall quality of life.

TL;DR: Results revealed that significant variability exists in CP, fiber, DMI, ISDMD, RFV and NEL values of evaluated hybrids.
Abstract: Under the sorghum fodder improvement programme 23 hybrids were grown in 3 replications under identical agronomic conditions. Samples of hybrids were collected at 50% flowering and evaluated for their crude protein (CP), fiber fraction, in sacco dry matter degradability (ISDMD) and other nutritional attributes viz. total digestible nutrients (TDN), metabolisable energy (ME), relative feed value (RFV), net energy for lactation (NEL), net energy for growth (NEG), net energy for maintenance (NEM), intake and stem to leaf ration (S: L). Average CP contents of the hybrids were about 10% while mean concentration of NDF, ADF, cellulose and lignin was 65.80, 38.22, 30.55 and 5.14 per cent, respectively. Non fiber carbohydrates (NFC) and neutral detergent insoluble protein (NDIP) contents ranged between 11.96–34.55 and 1.43–3.71 per cent across the evaluated hybrids. DMI (%) and RFV ranged between 1.67 to 2.30 and 69.85 to 118.94 across the hybrids. Lowest ISDMD was recorded in 73 A x ICSR 89001 (50.23) against highest in 297 x G84 (68.79%). Total carbohydrate (TCHO) contents were higher in 276A x HD19 (86.73) and 275A x E 36-1 (85.11) and lowest in 275A x GP 65044 (73.67%). Non fiber carbohydrates (NFC) and structural carbohydrates (SC) were highest and lowest in hybrid 275A x E 361 (34.55 and 50. 56%). Mean TDN, DE and ME contents were 55.21%, 2.89 (Kcal/g) and 2.37 (K cal/g) of the tested hybrids.Mean net energy (NEL) contents of the hybrids were 1.17 k cal/g with lowest value observed in 73 A x ICSR 89001 (0.85) against highest in 275A x E-36-1 hybrid (1.66). Results revealed that significant variability exists in CP, fiber, DMI, ISDMD, RFV and NEL values of evaluated hybrids.

TL;DR: The weight of evidence linking SDB with cerebrovascular disease, and the issues pertaining to evidences generated by treatment trials are discussed.
Abstract: Address for correspondence Dr. Garima Shukla Associate Professor, Dept. of Neurology Room # 2, 6th Floor, Neurosciences Center All India Instt. of Medical Sciences, New Delhi 29 Phone: +91 11 26593785 Fax: +91 11 26588166 Email: garimashukla@hotmail.com Sleep-disordered breathing (SDB) is being increasingly recognized as a vascular risk factor implicated in the whole spectrum of vascular diseases ranging from coronary heart disease and congestive cardiac failure to hypertension and stroke. It is important not only with respect to the magnitude of risk it raises, but also as an effectively treatable risk factor. In the instance of cerebrovascular disease, the evidence has moved from the initial dilemma of SDB as cause or consequence of stroke to that of a definitive risk requiring appropriate means of therapy. In the following review we will be discussing the weight of evidence linking SDB with cerebrovascular disease, and the issues pertaining to evidences generated by treatment trials.
