Sleep apnea syndrome due to upper airway obstruction: a review of 25 cases
TL;DR: A sleep apnea syndrome due to upper airway obstruction was diagnosed in 25 adult men (25 to 65 years of age) using nocturnal polygraphic monitoring using a combination of diet, medications with or without diet, and surgery.
Journal ArticleDOI
Individual differences in subjective and objective alertness during sleep deprivation are stable and unrelated.
Rachel Leproult,E.F. Colecchia,Annamaria Berardi,Robert Stickgold,Stephen M. Kosslyn,Eve Van Cauter +5 more
TL;DR: It is indicated that sleep deprivation has highly reproducible, but independent, effects on brain mechanisms controlling subjective and objective alertness.

Spironolactone reduces severity of obstructive sleep apnoea in patients with resistant hypertension: a preliminary report
Krishna K. Gaddam,Eduardo Pimenta,Stephen J Thomas,Stacey S. Cofield,Suzanne Oparil,Susan M. Harding,David A. Calhoun +6 more
TL;DR: Preliminary evidence is provided that treatment with a mineralocorticoid receptor antagonist substantially reduces the severity of OSA and if confirmed in a randomized assessment, it will support aldosterone-mediated chronic fluid retention as an important mediator of Osa severity in patients with resistant hypertension.
Journal ArticleDOI
Idiopathic hypersomnia : A series of 42 patients
TL;DR: Stimulants are often beneficial and spontaneous improvement appears to be more common in patients with idiopathic hypersomnia than in narcolepsy, which is a rare syndrome in which clinical heterogeneity suggests a variable or multifactoral pathogenesis.
Journal ArticleDOI
An ensemble system for automatic sleep stage classification using single channel EEG signal
Bijoy Laxmi Koley,Debangshu Dey +1 more
TL;DR: The proposed ensemble SVM-based method could be used as an efficient and cost-effective method for sleep staging with the advantage of reducing stress and burden imposed on subjects.
