Journal ArticleDOI
Mortality in Sleep Apnea Patients: A Multivariate Analysis of Risk Factors
TL;DR: It is interpreted to suggest that SAS affects death indirectly, most probably by being a risk factor for hypertension.
Journal ArticleDOI
Periodic leg movements in sleep: effect of clonazepam treatment.
TL;DR: Treatment with 0.5 to 2 mg clonazepam improved subjective complaints and decreased the number of leg movements without affecting the intermovement interval or movement duration.
Journal ArticleDOI
Ultrashort sleep-waking schedule. II. Relationship between ultradian rhythms in sleepability and the REM-non-REM cycles and effects of the circadian phase.
Peretz Lavie,Jacob Zomer +1 more
TL;DR: Eight subjects aged 20-30 years spent two 24 h periods in the sleep laboratory after having an adaptation night, and orthogonal spectral analysis revealed a dominant ultradian frequency of about 7.2 c/day during both experimental schedules.
Journal ArticleDOI
Across-night lengthening of sleep apneic episodes.
TL;DR: It is suggested that the across-night lengthening of apneas reflects a progressive increase in the arousal threshold, either by a compensatory deepening of sleep or by progressive changes in respiratory chemoreceptor changes.
Journal ArticleDOI
Excessive daytime sleepiness and insomnia.
Peretz Lavie,Jacob Zomer,Issac Eliaschar,Zvi Joachim,Eliahu Halpern,Ami-Hai E. Rubin,Gideon Alroy +6 more
TL;DR: It is suggested that increased upper airway resistance can cause nonapneic breathing disorders in sleep and, consequently, sleep disturbances.
