Article Abstract

Study Objectives: Reliable sleep staging is difficult to obtain from home sleep testing for diagnosis of obstructive sleep apnea (OSA), especially when it is self-applied. Hence, the current study aimed to develop a single frontal electroencephalography-based automatic sleep staging system (ASSS).

Methods: The ASSS system was developed on a clinical dataset, with a high percentage of participants with OSA. The F4-M1 signal extracted from 62 participants (62.9% having OSA) was used to build a four-stage classifier. Performance of the ASSS was tested in a holdout set of 58 patients (60.3% having OSA) with epoch-by-epoch and whole-night agreement for sleep staging compared with expert scoring of polysomnography.

Results: Mean all-stage percentage agreement was 75.52% (95% confidence interval, 72.90 to 78.13) (kappa 0.62; 95% confidence interval, 0.58 to 0.65), with mean percentage agreement for wake, light sleep, deep sleep (DS), and rapid eye movement of 78.04%, 70.97%, 83.65%, and 75.00%, respectively. The whole-night agreement was good-excellent (intraclass correlation coefficient, 0.74 to 0.88) for sleep onset latency, wake after sleep onset, total sleep time, and sleep efficiency. Compared to the non-OSA subset, the OSA subset had lower agreement for DS.

Conclusions: Our results indicate that a single-channel F4-M1 based ASSS was sufficient for sleep staging in a population with a high percentage of participants with OSA.

Sleep is a complex behavior regulated by various brain cell types. However, the roles of brain-resident macrophages, including microglia and CNS-associated macrophages (CAMs), particularly those derived postnatally, in sleep regulation remain poorly understood. Here, we investigated the effects of resident (embryo-derived) and repopulated (postnatally derived) brain-resident macrophages on the regulation of vigilance states in mice.

Neuromuscular diseases are often accompanied by various types of sleep-related breathing disorders, which can exacerbate the underlying condition and are associated with a poor prognosis. Early identification is essential, and interventions such as non-invasive ventilation, oxygen therapy, and respiratory rehabilitation should be initiated promptly to mitigate disease progression and improve outcomes. Nevertheless, the rates of missed and misdiagnosed cases remain common in clinical practice.

Importance: Sleep disturbances are common during and after the menopause transition, with potential effects on morbidity and quality of life; however, they may be underdiagnosed and undertreated.

Objective: We carried out a systematic literature review to investigate the prevalence and impact of sleep disturbances associated with menopause on women's health-related quality of life across the stages of menopause.

Evidence Review: Searches were conducted in PubMed and Excerpta Medica Database to identify articles published between 2013 and 2023 containing evidence for the impact of sleep quality on health-related quality of life and the epidemiology of sleep disturbances in women in menopause.

Sleep paralysis, colloquially known as "ghost pressing" is a state of momentary bodily immobilization occurring either at the onset of sleep or upon awakening. It is characterized by atonia during rapid eye movement (REM) sleep that continues into wakefulness, causing patients to become temporarily unable to talk or move but possessing full consciousness and awareness of their surroundings. Sleep paralysis is listed in the International Classification of Sleep Disorders, 3rd Edition (ICSD-3) as a parasomnia occurring during REM sleep that be classified as either isolated or narcolepsy-associated.
