Objective versus subjective excessive daytime sleepiness in OSA: Quantifying the impact of fatigue Morris S Gold, Riccardo A Stoohs, Avram R Gold https://www.sciencedirect.com/science/article/abs/pii/S1389945726001061 Background In patients with obstructive sleep apnea (OSA), excessive daytime...

Sleep alters neurovascular and hydrodynamic coupling in the human brain Sleep is essential for maintaining brain tissue homeostasis, which is facilitated by enhanced cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) solute transport. Infraslow (<0.1 Hz) vasomotion, CSF flow, and electrophysiological potential all...

Immune control of sleep pressure via interferon-γ in mice Sleep pressure reflects the brains homeostatic need to sleep, but the mechanisms underlying its regulation remain poorly understood. In mice, a subset of cortical inhibitory neuronal nitric oxide synthase (nNOS) positive interneurons...

Obstructive sleep apnea is a common disorder in the population—a review on the epidemiology of sleep apnea Karl A Franklin, Eva Lindberg https://pmc.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/articles/PMC4561280/ (PDF available) Abstract The prevalence of obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) defined at an apnea-hypopnea index...

Sleep-Disordered Breathing Among Women With Fibromyalgia Syndrome Shah, Mansi A.; Feinberg, Stanford; Krishnan, Eswar Background In clinical practice, polysomnograms (“sleep studies”) are seldom ordered for patients with fibromyalgia, although sleep issues dominate the symptom complex. One...

Inspiratory airflow dynamics during sleep in veterans with Gulf War illness: A controlled study Mohammad M. Amin, Zuzana Belisova, Sayeed Hossain, Morris S. Gold, Joan E. Broderick, Avram R. Gold...

Psychomotor Vigilance Test and Its Association With Daytime Sleepiness and Inflammation in Sleep Apnea: Clinical Implications Yun Li, Alexandros Vgontzas, Ilia Kritikou, Julio Fernandez-Mendoza, Maria Basta, Slobodanka Pejovic, Jordan Gaines, Edward O Bixler...

Increased Flow Limitation During Sleep Is Associated With Increased Psychomotor Vigilance Task Lapses in Individuals With Suspected OSA Eric Staykov, Dwayne L Mann, Brett Duce, Samu Kainulainen, Timo Leppänen, Juha Töyräs, Ali Azarbarzin, Thomas Georgeson, Scott A Sands, Philip I Terrill...

Sleep loss induces cholesterol-associated myelin dysfunction The increasing prevalence of sleep deprivation poses a public health challenge in modern society. Manifestations of reduced alertness, such as slowed reaction times and increased errors, are well-documented behavioral indicators of...

Prevalence of Obstructive Sleep Apnea in Joint Hypermobility Syndrome: A Systematic Review and Meta-Analysis Karim Sedky, Thomas Gaisl, David S. Bennett https://jcsm.aasm.org/doi/10.5664/jcsm.7636 (PDF available) ABSTRACT Study Objectives: Because of associated abnormalities affecting...

Genome-wide meta-analysis identifies genetic risk loci for mono- and polyneuropathies in 983 477 individuals Peripheral neuropathies are common neurological disorders affecting sensory, autonomic, and motor nerves, with an estimated prevalence exceeding 2% in the general population. Typical...

Fluid transport in the brain The brain harbors a unique ability to, figuratively speaking, shift its gears. During wakefulness, the brain is geared fully toward processing information and behaving, while homeostatic functions predominate during sleep. The blood-brain barrier establishes a...

Prospective Associations of Long COVID with Sleep Health Nearly 3 Years After SARS-CoV-2 Infection: A Statewide Representative Cohort Study STUDY OBJECTIVES While many adults with Long COVID experience sleep problems, the long-term relationship between Long COVID and sleep remains poorly...

Neurofluid circulation changes during a focused attention style of mindfulness meditation Neurofluids, including cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) and interstitial fluid, circulate through regulated central nervous system pathways to clear cerebral waste and support brain health, with elevated CSF...
