Obstructive sleep apnoea syndrome and its management
TL;DR: After more than three decades from its first use, continuous positive airway pressure (CPAP) is still recognized as the gold standard treatment and is highly effective in controlling symptoms, improving quality of life and reducing the clinical sequelae of sleep apnoea.

Panicker,Maria Teresa Pellecchia,Niall Quinn,Ryuji Sakakibara,Maria Stamelou,Eduardo Tolosa,Shoji Tsuji,Tom Warner,Werner Poewe,Horacio Kaufmann +28 more
TL;DR: The second consensus criteria for the diagnosis of multiple system atrophy are widely recognized as the reference standard for clinical research, but lack sensitivity to diagnose the disease at early stages.
Journal ArticleDOI
Sleep disorders, obesity, and aging: The role of orexin
Joshua P. Nixon,Vijayakumar Mavanji,Tammy A. Butterick,Charles J. Billington,Catherine M. Kotz,Jennifer A. Teske +5 more
TL;DR: Orexin acts as an integrative homeostatic signal influencing numerous brain regions, and that this pivotal role results in potential dysregulation of multiple physiological processes when orexin signaling is disrupted or lost.
Journal ArticleDOI
Sleep Patterns in Adults with a Diagnosis of High-Functioning Autism Spectrum Disorder.
Emma Baker,Amanda L. Richdale +1 more
TL;DR: These findings support the notion that problems related to sleep, in particular insomnia, continue into adulthood in individuals with high-functioning autism spectrum disorder.
Journal ArticleDOI
Buying time: a rationale for examining the use of circadian rhythm and sleep interventions to delay progression of mild cognitive impairment to Alzheimer’s disease
TL;DR: The role poor sleep quality plays in exacerbating AD type dementia and the science of sleep interventions to date are explored to provide a road map in pursuit of comprehensive sleep interventions, specifically targeted to promote cognitive function and delay progression of dementia.

Journal ArticleDOI
Sleep architecture, slow wave activity, and sleep spindles in adult patients with sleepwalking and sleep terrors
TL;DR: An abnormal deep sleep associated with a high SWS fragmentation might be responsible for the occurrence of SW or ST episodes.
Journal ArticleDOI
Dynamics of slow-wave activity during the NREM sleep of sleepwalkers and control subjects.
TL;DR: Sleepwalkers appear to suffer from an abnormality in the neural mechanisms responsible for the regulation of SWS, and power spectral analyses have never been used to quantify patients' SWA across sleep cycles.
Journal ArticleDOI
Precipitating factors of somnambulism: impact of sleep deprivation and forced arousals.
TL;DR: Sleep deprivation and forced arousals during slow-wave sleep can induce somnambulistic episodes in predisposed adults and highlights the potential value of this protocol in establishing a video-polysomnographically based diagnosis for sleepwalking.
Journal ArticleDOI
Sleep and wakefulness in somnambulism: A spectral analysis study
TL;DR: The increased power of low delta just prior to the confusional arousal experienced may not be related to Stages 3-4 NREM sleep, but hypothesize that it may be translated as a cortical reaction to brain activation.
Journal ArticleDOI
Alcohol-induced sleepwalking or confusional arousal as a defense to criminal behavior: a review of scientific evidence, methods and forensic considerations.
TL;DR: A review of the sleep medicine literature found no sleep laboratory studies of the effects of alcohol on the sleep of clinically diagnosed sleepwalkers, and there is no direct experimental evidence that alcohol predisposes or triggers sleepwalking or related disorders.
