Positional Treatment vs Continuous Positive Airway Pressure in Patients With Positional Obstructive Sleep Apnea Syndrome
TL;DR: Positional treatment and CPAP have similar efficacy in the treatment of patients with positional OSA, and there was no significant difference, however, in sleep architecture, Epworth Sleepiness Scale scores, maintenance of wakefulness testing sleep latency, psychometric test performance, mood scales, or quality-of-life measures.

Common scale-invariant patterns of sleep-wake transitions across mammalian species.

TL;DR: It is hypothesize that brief awakenings from sleep may reflect aspects of the endogenous sleep control mechanism and thus may exhibit certain robust dynamical patterns across species and may provide insights into the dynamics of the neural circuits controlling sleep.

Potential novel predictors of mortality in end-stage renal disease patients with sleep disorders
TL;DR: PLMSI, APL MSI, and total arousals per hour of sleep were strongly associated with mortality in patients with ESRD with sleep disorders independent of other factors and may be novel predictors of near-term mortality.

Comparison of Sleep Parameters from Actigraphy and Polysomnography in Older Women: The SOF Study
Terri Blackwell,Susan Redline,Sonia Ancoli-Israel,Jennifer L. Schneider,Susan Surovec,Nathan Johnson,Jane A. Cauley,Katie L. Stone +7 more
TL;DR: Sleep parameters from actigraphy corresponded reasonably well to polysomnography in this population, with the PIM mode ofActigraphy correlating highest and those with poor sleep quality had the largest measurement error between the 2 procedures.

Effect of driving duration and partial sleep deprivation on subsequent alertness and performance of car drivers
TL;DR: Investigation of the effect of partial sleep deprivation and driving duration on subsequent alertness and performance in car drivers revealed that sleep deprivation had an effect on KSS score but not on the (alpha+theta) spectral power, while driving duration had aneffect on these two parameters.
