This paper explores the progressive era of sleep monitoring, focusing on wearable and remote devices contributing to advances in the concept of home polysomnography. We begin by exploring the basic physiology of sleep, establishing a theoretical basis for understanding sleep stages and associated changes in physiological variables. The review then moves on to an analysis of specific cutting-edge devices and technologies, with an emphasis on their practical applications, user comfort, and accuracy. Attention is also given to the ability of these devices to predict neurological disorders, particularly Alzheimer's and Parkinson's disease. The paper highlights the integration of hardware innovations, targeted sleep parameters, and partially advanced algorithms, illustrating how these elements converge to provide reliable sleep health information. By bridging the gap between clinical diagnosis and real-world applicability, this review aims to elucidate the role of modern sleep monitoring tools in improving personalised healthcare and proactive disease management.

Rationale: There are insufficient data to inform the management of central sleep apnea (CSA) in patients with heart failure (HF) with reduced ejection fraction (HFrEF). Nocturnal oxygen therapy (NOT) has been postulated to benefit CSA patients with HFrEF, but has not been rigorously studied.

Mean airway pressure, a monitored variable continuously available on the modern ventilator, is the pressure measured at the airway opening averaged over the time needed to complete the entire respiratory cycle. Mean airway pressure is well recognized to connect three key physiologic processes in mechanical ventilation: physical stretch, cardiovascular dynamics, and pulmonary gas exchange. Although other parameters currently employed in adults to determine "safe" ventilation are undoubtedly valuable for daily practice, all have limitations for continuous monitoring of ventilation hazard.

Hypertension is a pervasive and progressive complication in chronic kidney disease (CKD) patients, affecting up to 90% of those in advanced stages or on dialysis. A particularly insidious aspect of this condition is nocturnal hypertension, characterized by high blood pressure (BP) during sleep and a blunted or absent nighttime BP dipping-phenomena associated with accelerated CKD progression and increased cardiovascular risk. Despite its strong prognostic significance, nocturnal hypertension remains underdiagnosed due to limited use of ambulatory BP monitoring.

Background: Limited data are available regarding the prevalence of sleep-disordered breathing (SDB), particularly Cheyne-Stokes respiration (CSR), in patients with atrial fibrillation (AF) and left ventricular (LV) systolic dysfunction. Thus, this study aimed to investigate the prevalence of SDB and CSR, as well as the factors associated with these conditions, in patients with AF without LV systolic dysfunction.
Methods: Patients with paroxysmal and non-paroxysmal AF underwent echocardiography and cardiorespiratory polygraphy.

Objective: To explore the exercise capacity in obese patients with severe obstructive sleep apnea syndrome (OSAS) through cardiopulmonary exercise test (CPET).
Methods: In this cross-sectional study, patients with simple obesity (36 cases) and obese patients with severe OSAS (45 cases) admitted to the Department of Rehabilitation Medicine and the Department of General Practice of the Affiliated Wuxi People's Hospital of Nanjing Medical University from September 2019 to January 2024 were collected. Additionally, we included 33 patients (BMI<28 kg/m,AHI<5/hour) as a control group.
