Publications indexed in Medline, Embase, or Web of Science were reviewed using the PRISMA framework. Of 1054 studies, 62 fulfilled the inclusion criteria. Of the studies evaluating oximetry-based type IV PSM, one (6.25 %) demonstrated a balanced set of high (≥80 %) sensitivities and specificities for the diagnosis of any pediatric sleep apnea, while five studies (27.8 %) showed similar accuracies for moderate-to-severe sleep apnea. For non-oximetry-based type IV PSM, two studies (40 %) reported a balanced set of high diagnostic accuracies for moderate-to-severe sleep apnea. Type III PSM repeatedly demonstrated higher diagnostic accuracies, with six studies (66.7 %) reporting a balanced set of high diagnostic accuracies for moderate-to-severe sleep apnea.

Individuals with a napping duration of 30 min or longer exhibited a higher risk of all-cause mortality, cardiovascular disease, and metabolic disease, whereas those with napping durations less than 30 min had no significant risks. No significant differences in napping and health risks were observed for napping frequency, percentage of nappers, sample size, sex, age, body mass index, follow-up years, or comorbidity status.

REM sleep disturbances can manifest as cataplexy (in narcolepsy type 1), sleep paralysis, sleep-related hallucinations, REM sleep behavior disorder, abnormal dreams, polysomnographic evidence of REM sleep disruption with sleep-onset REM periods, and fragmented REM sleep. Characterization of REM sleep and related symptoms facilitates the differentiation of narcolepsy from other central hypersomnolence disorders and aids in distinguishing between narcolepsy types 1 and 2. A circuit comprising regions within the brainstem, forebrain, and hypothalamus is involved in generating and regulating REM sleep, which is influenced by changes in monoamines, acetylcholine, and neuropeptides. REM sleep is associated with brainstem functions, including autonomic control, and REM sleep disturbances may be associated with increased cardiovascular risk. Medications used to treat narcolepsy (and REM-related symptoms of narcolepsy) include stimulants/wake-promoting agents, pitolisant, oxybates, and antidepressants; hypocretin agonists are a potential new class of therapeutics. The role of REM sleep disturbances in narcolepsy remains an area of active research in pathophysiology, symptom management, and treatment.

SIDS is believed to be multifactorial in origin. The Triple Risk hypothesis has been proposed to explain this. The model suggests that when a vulnerable infant, such as one born preterm, is at a critical but unstable developmental period in homeostatic control, death may occur if exposed to an exogenous stressor, such as being placed prone for sleep. The highest risk period is at ages 2–4 months, with 90 % of deaths occurring before 6 months. The final pathway to SIDS is widely believed to involve some combination of immature cardiorespiratory control and a failure of arousal from sleep.

Importantly, although human circadian rhythms are entrained by sunlight, when studying the effect of different SSTs on adolescents' sleep habits usually only the social clock, and not the solar clock, is considered. This meta-analysis investigates whether later SSTs affect adolescents’ sleep habits and chronotype and it assesses factors that can modulate this effect, including the relative importance of social and solar clocks. Here, through a database search we identify 37 studies comparing the effect of different SSTs on adolescents' sleep habits and/or chronotype. Random effect meta-analyses showed that later SSTs are associated with later sleep timings and longer sleep duration on weekdays, lower levels of social jetlag, and later chronotypes. Several meta-regressions reveal that the distance between compared SSTs and the interplay between SSTs and the solar clock modulate the effect of different SSTs on sleep timings and duration on weekdays.</p></div>","PeriodicalId":49513,"journal":{"name":"Sleep Medicine Reviews","volume":"78 ","pages":"Article 101988"},"PeriodicalIF":11.2,"publicationDate":"2024-07-26","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"141840925","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":1,"RegionCategory":"医学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

In our article, we delve into potential complications linked to the diagnostic definition of RLS, identify subpopulations necessitating more attention, and highlight issues pertaining to endpoints and study frameworks. In particular, we recommend developing alternative scoring methods for more accurate RLS diagnosis, thereby improving clinical trial specificity. Furthermore, enhancing the precision of endpoints will increase study effect sizes and mitigate study costs. Suggestions to achieve this include developing online, real-time sleep diaries with high-frequency sampling of nightly sleep latency and the use of PLMs as surrogate markers. Furthermore, to reduce the placebo response, strategies should be adopted that include placebo run-in periods. As RLS is frequently a chronic condition, priority should be given to long-term studies, using a randomized, placebo-controlled, withdrawal design. Lastly, new populations should be investigated to develop targeted treatments such as mild RLS, pregnancy, hemodialysis, or iron-deficient anemia.</p></div>","PeriodicalId":49513,"journal":{"name":"Sleep Medicine Reviews","volume":"77 ","pages":"Article 101978"},"PeriodicalIF":11.2,"publicationDate":"2024-07-18","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"141849748","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":1,"RegionCategory":"医学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
