TL;DR: It is concluded that obstructive sleep apnea and periodic leg movement disorder are not common findings or etiological factors in ADHD patients, and the authors point out that these discrepancies could result from differences in how hyperactivity was defined, or from confounds and other limitations in selected previous studies that the authors reviewed.

TL;DR: Given the high prevalence of OSA in acute stroke, it was surprised that data on OSA or OSA symptoms were not reported, and sleep disorders, and obstructive sleep apnea in particular, could help to explain the reported observations.

TL;DR: In this rural Chinese cohort, short sleep duration is independently associated with increased insulin resistance among women only, even after adjusting for adiposity and other potential confounders.

TL;DR: This study compares sleep in indigenous and non‐indigenous children and investigates potential effects on school performance and daytime behaviour.

TL;DR: Durations of uninterrupted sleep and specific sleep stages appear to follow exponential distributions in children with or without SDB, and Parameters that describe these distributions--particularly mean duration of stage 2 sleep periods--may provide useful additions to standard sleep stage analyses.
