Regarding sleep architecture, we observed a significant decrease in the slow wave sleep duration for AS compared to NoNi, and interestingly not between FS and NoNi.</p></div><div><h3>Conclusion</h3><p>This study suggests that current smokers suffer from alterations in both sleep architecture and ventilatory parameters, the later appears to persist even after smoking cessation.</p></div>","PeriodicalId":37065,"journal":{"name":"Sleep Medicine: X","volume":"6 ","pages":"Article 100085"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-12-15","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://ftp.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pub/pmc/oa_pdf/90/cf/main.PMC10509708.pdf","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"41151499","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
