Evidence that Experimentally Induced Sleep Bruxism is a Consequence of Transient Arousal

TL;DR: The hypothesis that SB is an exaggerated form of oromotor activity associated with sleep micro-arousal is supported, and tooth-grinding occurred during 71% of the evoked RMMA in SB patients.

Sleep spindle characteristics in healthy subjects of different age groups

TL;DR: The progressive decrease in the number of SS and slow-wave sleep time with age suggests that SS are part of sleep promoting mechanisms, and the negative correlation found between SS density and sleep efficiency in the present study is congruent with the sleep maintenance role of SS.

Response of Obstructive Sleep Apnea to Fluoxetine and Protriptyline

TL;DR: Fluoxetine is beneficial to some, but not all, patients with OSA, and is better tolerated than protriptyline; however, for the group as a whole, there was no significant improvement in the number of arterial oxygen desaturation events, the level of arterIAL oxygen Desaturation, or the numberof arousals with either agent.

Automated identification of sleep states from EEG signals by means of ensemble empirical mode decomposition and random under sampling boosting

TL;DR: The automated sleep scoring scheme propounded herein can eradicate the onus of the clinicians, contribute to the device implementation of a sleep monitoring system, and benefit sleep research.
