Sleep-wake disturbance in interepisode bipolar disorder and high-risk individuals: a systematic review and meta-analysis.

TL;DR: In this article, a systematic review was conducted to compare sleep-wake patterns in people with interepisode bipolar disorder or high-risk individuals vs. normal controls and/or people with primary insomnia.
Journal ArticleDOI

Cross-cultural and comparative epidemiology of insomnia: the Diagnostic and statistical manual (DSM), International classification of diseases (ICD) and International classification of sleep disorders (ICSD).

TL;DR: ICD-10 insomnia disorder has the lowest prevalence, perhaps because excessive concern and preoccupation, one of its diagnostic criteria, is not always present in people with insomnia.
Journal ArticleDOI

Acupuncture for residual insomnia associated with major depressive disorder: a placebo- and sham-controlled, subject- and assessor-blind, randomized trial

TL;DR: Acupuncture was well tolerated, but the efficacy was only mild and similar to that of minimal acupuncture and placebo acupuncture, and a high proportion of patients remained clinically significantly affected by insomnia after treatment.
Journal ArticleDOI

The use of conventional and complementary therapies for insomnia among Hong Kong Chinese: A telephone survey

TL;DR: The use of conventional treatments, CAM, and alcohol for trouble sleeping was all less common in Hong Kong and public education on the consequences of insomnia and various treatment modalities is needed.
Journal ArticleDOI

Hypnotherapy for insomnia: a systematic review and meta-analysis of randomized controlled trials.

TL;DR: Generalizability of the positive results is doubtful due to the relatively small sample size and methodological limitations, and future studies with larger sample sizes and better study design and methodology are called for.
