Changes in spectral analysis of electroencephalography and heart rate were shown to be associated with periodic limb movements during sleep and non-periodic leg movements in sleep. Considering the circadian distribution of symptoms of restless legs syndrome, we investigated spectral electroencephalography and heart rate accompanying periodic limb movements, isolated leg movements and short-interval leg movements during suggested immobilization test. The mean age of 53 patients was 51.9 ± 13 years, 54.7% were females. Prominent increases in electroencephalography activation were associated with periodic limb movements, isolated leg movements and short-interval leg movements during the suggested immobilization test, which were significant in all spectral bands (p < 0.001). An increase in all electroencephalography bands started ~10 s before periodic limb movements, isolated leg movements and short-interval leg movements; increases in delta and theta band activities ended ~10 s after the movements, while increases in alpha and beta band activities lasted for about ~20 s. Maximum increases in delta, theta, alpha and beta bands were all observed after periodic limb movements and short-interval leg movements, but before isolated leg movements in theta and alpha bands, and after isolated leg movements in delta and beta bands. A notably longer increase in alpha and beta bands was evident for periodic limb movements and short-interval leg movements. An increase in heart rate was prominent at 4-12 s after movement onset in short-interval leg movements, being significantly higher than those associated with periodic limb movements and isolated leg movements. Our study shows that, in patients with restless legs syndrome, periodic limb movements, isolated leg movements and short-interval leg movements during suggested immobilization test are associated with prominent cortical and cardiac activation, which warrants confirmation in larger restless legs syndrome cohorts and requires long-term follow-up studies to delineate its possible clinical consequences.</p>","PeriodicalId":17057,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Sleep Research","volume":" ","pages":"e14394"},"PeriodicalIF":3.4,"publicationDate":"2024-11-04","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142576321","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"医学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Insomnia and binge-eating symptoms were assessed at pre-treatment and end-of-treatment using the Insomnia Severity Index and Eating Pathology Symptoms Inventory. Multiply imputed datasets were used to test associations between insomnia and binge eating before, during and after treatment.

Eating disorder treatment modestly reduced insomnia (d = -0.38); however, about half of people with clinically significant insomnia prior to treatment remained symptomatic. Insomnia symptoms and binge-eating symptoms did not change concurrently during treatment. Overall, results support an association between insomnia and binge eating. Although eating disorder treatment may impact insomnia, many individuals remained symptomatic for sleep problems, suggesting the need for follow-up treatments, such as cognitive behavioural therapy for insomnia, or the development of integrated insomnia-eating disorder treatments.

The agreement in the manual scoring of the respiratory events lacks an in-depth investigation as most of the previous studies reported only the apnea-hypopnea index or overall agreement, and not temporal, second-by-second or event subtype agreement. We hypothesized the temporal and subtype agreement to be low because the event duration or subtypes are not generally considered in current clinical practice. The data comprised 50 polysomnography recordings scored by 10 experts. The respiratory event agreement between the scorers was calculated using kappa statistics in a second-by-second manner. Obstructive sleep apnea severity categories (no obstructive sleep apnea/mild/moderate/severe) were compared between scorers. The Fleiss' kappa value for binary (event/no event) respiratory event scorings was 0.32. When calculated separately within N1, N2, N3 and R, the Fleiss' kappa values were 0.12, 0.23, 0.22 and 0.23, respectively. Binary analysis conducted separately for the event subtypes showed the highest Fleiss' kappa for hypopneas to be 0.26. In 34% of the participants, the obstructive sleep apnea severity category was the same regardless of the scorer, whereas in the rest of the participants the category changed depending on the scorer.

We systematically searched databases for articles evaluating hypersomnolence with electrophysiological or psychomotor/cognitive measures in clozapine-treated patients with schizophrenia. Objective assessment of hypersomnolence was evaluated in six studies. All studies using polysomnography (PSG) found significantly longer total sleep time and shorter sleep onset latency in patients treated with clozapine at initiation of clozapine. The study with the multiple sleep latency test (MSLT) also found a shorter sleep onset latency. These observations did not persist 4-6 weeks after treatment initiation. Further investigations are needed. Longer total sleep time should be investigated with standardised long-term PSG to investigate excessive sleep quantity. Shorter sleep onset latency should be investigated with the MSLT or the maintenance of wakefulness test to investigate the excessive propensity to fall asleep or ability to stay awake.

Adults (n = 216) of a wide age range (28-90 years old, mean age 52.64 ± 12.74) with mmOSA (5 ≤ AHI < 30) completed in-lab polysomnography or home sleep apnea testing, physical examination including blood pressure (BP) measures, structured medical history questionnaire, and blood draw for CRP and fasting glucose and insulin levels.

Also, in adults < 60 years lnCRP but not AHI, was associated with higher lnHOMA values. In contrast, in adults > 60 years neither lnCRP nor AHI were associated with greater odds for hypertension, average systolic and diastolic BP, and lnHOMA.

In this study, we applied four well-known clustering methods: Agglomerative Hierarchical Clustering; K-means; Fuzzy C-means; and Gaussian Mixture Model to a population of 865 suspected obstructive sleep apnea patients. By creating five clusters with each method, we examined the effect of clustering methods on forming obstructive sleep apnea clusters and the differences in their physiological characteristics. We utilized a visualization technique to indicate the cluster formations, Cohen's kappa statistics to find the similarity and agreement between clustering methods, and performance evaluation to compare the clustering performance. As a result, two out of five clusters were distinctly different with all four methods, while three other clusters exhibited overlapping features across all methods. In terms of agreement, Fuzzy C-means and K-means had the strongest (κ = 0.87), and Agglomerative hierarchical clustering and Gaussian Mixture Model had the weakest agreement (κ = 0.51) between each other. The K-means showed the best clustering performance, followed by the Fuzzy C-means in most evaluation criteria. Moreover, Fuzzy C-means showed the greatest potential in handling overlapping clusters compared with other methods.
