ObjectiveStudies looking at the effect of anti-epileptic medications on sleep microstructure of patients with epilepsy are almost non-existent. The aim of this study was to compare sleep microstructural characteristics of drug-naïve juvenile myoclonic epilepsy (JME) patients with those on valproate (VPA) monotherapy.MethodsThree age- (p = 0.287) and gender- (p = 0.766) matched groups (N = 20 in each group): (1) drug-naïve JME (mean age: 21.2 ± 4.06 years; M : F = 9:11); (2) JME on VPA (mean age: 21.85 ± 4.28 years; M : F = 11:9); (3) healthy controls (mean age: 23.2 ± 3.82 years; M : F = 9:11) underwent overnight polysomnography. Scoring and analysis of arousals American Sleep Disorders Association (ASDA, 2002), cyclic alternating pattern (CAP) (Terzano et al., 2002) parameters were performed. Comparison of arousal and CAP parameters was performed using one-way ANOVA, followed by pairwise comparisons using Fisher's LSD test (p ≤ 0.05).ResultsRapid eye movement (REM) arousal indices were higher in JME patients (Group 1 [p = 0.002] and Group 2 [p <0.001]), whereas the overall and NREM arousal indices were comparable between the three groups. CAP rate was higher in JME patients as compared to controls (p <0.001). Duration of phase A and its subtypes (p <0.001) was reduced in drug-naïve patients as compared to VPA group and controls. Finally, percentage of phase A1 (p = 0.003) was decreased and A3 (p = 0.045) was increased in drug-naïve patients as compared to VPA group and controls.ConclusionsWe found significant alterations in REM arousal indices and several CAP parameters in JME patients. However, many of these alterations were not seen in the valproate group. This might indicate that anti-epileptic medications such as valproate may beneficially modulate arousal instability in JME patients, and hence promote sleep quality and continuity. 相似文献

AimThe aim is to analyze the sleep architecture using polysomnography (PSG) in patients with Juvenile Myoclonic Epilepsy (JME): (newly diagnosed and those on valproate drug) attending epilepsy clinic at Alexandria University Hospitals.MethodsThis study involved 20 patients with JME on valproate (age: 22.40 ± 5.80 years; M:F = 6:14), 20 newly diagnosed patients (age: 18.55 ± 6.0 years; M:F = 6:14), and 20 matched healthy controls (age: 22.10 ± 5.0 years; M:F = 6:14). Clinical assessment, electroencephalogram (EEG), evaluation with comprehensive sleep questionnaire, and PSG were done for all patients.ResultsPSG showed significant alterations in sleep architecture in the total JME group in the form of reduced mean sleep efficiency (p = 0.0011), increased mean Rapid eye movement (REM) onset latency (p = 0.0461), decrease mean REM percentage (p = 0.0111), increased mean wakefulness after sleep onset (p = 0.0181), increase the index of total arousal (p = 0.0051), increased mean periodic limb movement index (P = 0.0011), and reduced apnea hypopnea index (P = <0.001) in comparison to control group. Valproate treated group showed increased sleep efficiency (p = 0.0401), decreased REM arousal index (P = 0.012), longer stage 3 (P = 0.038), and prolonged stage 2 (P = 0.0491) than the newly diagnosed group.ConclusionsSleep architecture was significantly disturbed in JME, with improvement in sleep efficiency in valproate treated patients. 相似文献

RationaleStudies looking at the effect of antiseizure medications (ASMs) on the sleep microstructure of subjects with epilepsy are scarce. This study aims to evaluate the impact of eslicarbazepine (ESL) as add-on therapy on the sleep microstructure in temporal lobe epilepsy (TLE).MethodsTwelve patients affected by TLE were recruited to undergo overnight polysomnography and a subjective evaluation of nocturnal sleep utilizing the Pittsburgh Sleep Quality Index (PSQI) and daytime somnolence through the Epworth Sleepiness Scale (ESS) before and after three months of treatment with ESL as add-on therapy. Ten healthy controls (HC) matched for age, sex and BMI were recruited. Scoring and analysis of sleep macrostructure and cyclic alternating pattern (CAP) parameters were performed.ResultsTen patients completed the study. The comparison between patients in basal condition (T0) and HC showed a significant lower sleep efficiency (p = 0.049), REM percentage (p = 0.002), higher REM latency (p = 0.02), N2 (p = 0.001) and WASO (p = 0.01). Regarding CAP, patients at T0 showed higher CAP rate in N1 (p = 0.01), lower A1 (%) (p = 0.03), higher A3 (%) (p = 0.01), higher mean duration of A (p = 0.02) and A3 (p = 0.006), A3 index (p = 0.02) than HC. ESL did not induce any significant changes in nocturnal macrostructural polysomnographic variables and PSQI scores. Furthermore, the ESS score showed no modification after treatment. Lower CAP rate in N3 (p = 0.02), phase A2 index (p = 0.02) average number of CAP cycle per sequences and mean duration of CAP sequences (both p = 0.02) was evident after ESL. A trend toward significance was evident for the decrease of CAP rate in N1 (p = 0.09) and N2 (p = 0.09), and for the increase of B phase mean duration (p = 0.07).ConclusionWe found significant improvement in sleep continuity as measured by CAP after ESL. These findings suggest that ESL may positively modulate sleep fragmentation in patients with TLE, and hence enhance sleep quality. Our results suggest a favourable sleep profile with the use of ESL. 相似文献

ObjectiveTo examine the effects of a modest delay (15 min) in school start time (SST) on adolescent sleep patterns, mood, and behaviors.MethodsTwo secondary schools in Hong Kong with a total of 1173 students (intervention: n = 617; comparison school n = 556) completed both baseline and follow-up questionnaires. School start time was delayed by 15 min, from 7:45 a.m. to 8:00 a.m., in the intervention school. The comparison school maintained their regular SST at 7:55 a.m. Students' sleep-wake patterns, daytime sleepiness, and mental and behavioral aspects were assessed by validated questionnaires before and after the intervention.ResultsStudents in the intervention school significantly delayed their weekday wake-up time (p < 0.001) and increased their total time in bed (p < 0.001) when compared to students in the comparison school. Both groups experienced a delay in their weekday bedtime. The students in the intervention school showed improved mental health [General Health Questionnaire (GHQ) score, p = 0.015], better prosocial behaviors (p = 0.009), better peer relationships (p < 0.001), greater attentiveness (p < 0.001), less emotional problems (p = 0.002), and less behavioral difficulties (p < 0.001) as measured by Strengths and Difficulties Questionnaire (SDQ).ConclusionsA modest delay (15 min) in school start time can increase adolescent sleep with corresponding improvement in mood and behaviors. Current findings have significant implications for education policy, suggesting that school administrators and policy makers should systematically consider delaying school start time to promote sleep and health among school-aged adolescents.Clinical trial registrationChiCTR-TRC-12002798.

IntroductionPatients with epilepsy have a disturbed sleep architecture. Polysomnographic studies have shown that patients with refractory epilepsy have decreased rapid eye movement (REM) sleep and longer REM latency than those with medically controlled epilepsy. However, little is known about the differences in the REM sleep microstructure between these patient groups.MethodsWe conducted a retrospective case–control study of 20 patients with refractory epilepsy (refractory group) and 28 patients with medically controlled epilepsy (medically controlled group). All patients completed sleep questionnaires and underwent overnight in-lab polysomnography. Five-minute electroencephalogram recordings at the C3 and C4 electrodes from each REM sleep were selected for spectral analysis, and 5-min electrocardiogram segments recorded during REM sleep were used for heart rate variability analysis. The groups’ scores on the sleep questionnaires, polysomnographic sleep parameters, indices of sleep-related breathing disorders, and REM sleep electroencephalogram spectra were compared.ResultsThe refractory group had decreased REM sleep (p < 0.001) and longer REM latency (p = 0.0357) than those of the medically controlled group. Moreover, electroencephalogram spectral analysis revealed that the refractory group had decreased absolute beta power (p = 0.0039) and relative beta power (p = 0.0035) as well as increased relative delta power (p = 0.0015) compared with the medically controlled group.ConclusionsDifferences in the polysomnographic macrostructure and REM sleep microstructure between the study groups suggest REM sleep dysregulation in patients with refractory epilepsy. 相似文献

IntroductionIdiopathic hypersomnia (IH) is a rare orphan disease characterized by excessive daytime sleepiness, frequently accompanied by prolonged nocturnal sleep and difficulties awakening, termed sleep inertia or sleep drunkenness. Severe sleepiness usually causes a greater handicap than manifestations of narcolepsy.MethodsForty-three IH patients (17 male, mean age 42.8 ± SD 12.2 years, range 20–67), diagnosed in the past 20 years according to ICSD-2 or ICSD-3 criteria were invited for clinical examination to evaluate the course, manifestations and severity of the disease, as well as clinical comorbidities. The patients completed a set of questionnaires scoring sleepiness, sleep inertia, fatigue, depression, anxiety, circadian preference, and quality of life.ResultsIH patients were divided according to the duration of nocturnal sleep at the time of their diagnosis into two cohorts: (1) with normal sleep duration (n = 25, 58.1%) and (2) with long sleep duration (n = 18, 41.9%). The mean duration of ad libitum sleep per 22 h in the second cohort was 732.0 ± 115.4 min (range 603–1100), and women markedly prevailed (n = 14, 77.8%). Age at disease onset was younger in the group with long sleep duration (21.2 ± 11.4 years versus 28.1 ± 13.6 years, p = 0.028), their MSLT latency was longer (7.2 ± 3.7 min versus 5.1 ± 1.7 min, p = 0.005), a history of sleep inertia prevailed (p = 0.005), and daily naps were mostly non-refreshing (p = 0.014). Additionally, questionnaires in the group with long sleep duration showed more severe sleep inertia (p = 0.007), fatigue (p = 0.004), and a tendency towards evening chronotype (p = 0.001).ConclusionsIH patients with long sleep duration differ clinically as well as by objective measures at the time of diagnosis and in long-term follow up from IH patients without long 24-h sleep time. In our opinion they represent an independent clinical entity to be considered in the revised ICSD-3 criteria. 相似文献

Study objectivesSleep breathing disorders (SBD) have been linked to wake-up stroke (WUS). Respiratory arousals have an important role in responding to danger during sleep, yet currently no studies have investigated respiratory arousability in WUS. In this study, we used a clinical tool to predict low respiratory arousal threshold (ArTH), and then compared respiratory arousability in patients with WUS and non-WUS.MethodsWe enrolled 119 patients with acute ischemic stroke and assigned them into WUS (n = 34) and non-WUS (n = 85) groups. All participants underwent polysomnography (PSG) during the acute phase of stroke. The respiratory ArTH predictive tool assigns one point for each of the following: apnea-hypopnea index (AHI) < 30/h, nadir oxygen saturation (SaO2) > 82.5%, and fraction of hypopneas > 58.3%. An ArTH score ≥2 represents low respiratory ArTH.ResultsOur results reconfirmed the association between moderate-to-severe sleep apnea syndrome and WUS (OR 2.879, 95% CI 1.17–7.089, p = 0.021). Significantly fewer participants with obstructive sleep apnea (AHI ≥ 5/h) had low respiratory ArTH in the WUS group than in the non-WUS group (34.8% vs. 68.1%, respectively, p = 0.008). High respiratory ArTH was independently associated with WUS (OR 5.556, 95% CI 1.959–15.761, p = 0.001).ConclusionsThe correlation between SBD and WUS suggests that sleep apnea might induce acute physiological changes that trigger the onset of stroke. We show that reduced respiratory arousability is associated with WUS, and hypothesize that reduced cortical capability to generate respiratory arousal may have a role in triggering stroke during sleep. 相似文献

ObjectiveThe objective of this study was to evaluate the efficacy and safety of acupuncture treatment for primary insomnia.MethodsWe conducted a single-center, single-blinded, and randomized controlled clinical trial. Seventy-two patients with primary insomnia were randomly assigned into two groups – the acupuncture group, who received acupuncture treatment, and the control group, who received sham acupuncture treatment. The treatment was given three times a week for four weeks. Patients were asked to wear sleep monitors and complete questionnaires every two weeks for a total of eight weeks. The primary outcome was the Insomnia Severity Index (ISI). The secondary outcomes were sleep parameters including sleep efficiency (SE), sleep awakenings (SA) and total sleep time (TST) recorded by the Actigraphy, as well as scores of the Self-Rating Anxiety Scale (SAS) and the Self-Rating Depression Scale (SDS).ResultsCompared with pretreatment baseline, patients in both groups had varying degrees of improvements in their sleep conditions. Paired t-test showed that there was a significant difference in all indicators in the acupuncture group before and after acupuncture treatment. One-way analysis of covariance adjusted for baseline scores indicated that the ISI improved dramatically in the acupuncture group at two weeks post-treatment (F = 11.3, p = 0.001), four weeks post-treatment (F = 33.6, p < 0.001), 2 weeks follow-up (F = 39.4, p < 0.001) and four weeks follow-up (F = 34.1, p < 0.001). Similar significant improvements can also be observed in the SE, TST and SDS scores. Although no differences in SA and SAS were shown between the two groups until the end of the treatment, remarkable decrements in SA and SAS were found in the acupuncture treatment group after the two-week and four-week follow-ups.ConclusionAcupuncture treatment is more effective than sham acupuncture treatment in increasing insomnia patients' sleep quality and improving their psychological health.Trial RegistrationChinese Clinical Trial Registry: Chi CTR-TRC-14004859. 相似文献

ObjectivesRecent studies have demonstrated that first-line nurses involved in the coronavirus disease-2019 (COVID-19) crisis may experience sleep disturbances. As breathing relaxation techniques can improve sleep quality, anxiety, and depression, the current study aimed to evaluate the effectiveness of diaphragmatic breathing relaxation training (DBRT) for improving sleep quality among nurses in Wuhan, China during the COVID-19 outbreak.MethodsThis study used a quasi-experimental (before and after) intervention strategy, with 151 first-line nurses from four wards in Leishenshan hospital. The Pittsburgh Sleep Quality Index (PSQI), Self-Rating Anxiety Scale (SAS), and Self-Rating Depression Scale (SDS) to evaluate the effectiveness of DBRT before and after the intervention. Data were examined using the Shapiro–Wilk test, Levene's test, and paired t-test.ResultsA total of 140 nurses completed the DBRT sessions. First-line nurses achieved significant reductions in global sleep quality (p < 0.01), subjective sleep quality (p < 0.001), sleep latency (p < 0.01), sleep duration (p < 0.001), sleep disturbances (p < 0.001), habitual sleep efficiency (p = 0.015), daytime dysfunction (p = 0.001), and anxiety (p = 0.001). There were no significant reductions in the use of sleeping medication (p = 0.134) and depression (p = 0.359).ConclusionDBRT is a useful non-pharmacological treatment for improving sleep quality and reducing anxiety among first-line nurses involved in the COVID-19 outbreak.The study protocol was clinically registered by the Chinese Clinical Trial Registry.

BackgroundPrevious evidence has supported an association between sleep quality and psychological stress. However, the association between internship nurses' sleep status and its relevant factors is poorly understood.ObjectiveThe aim of this study was to investigate sleep quality and its related factors in clinical learning environment and mental stress.MethodsA cross-sectional survey was conducted by three instruments: Clinical Learning Environment, Supervision, and Nurse Teacher Evaluation Scale (CLES + T), Stress Rating Scale for practicing nurses (SRS) and Pittsburgh Sleep Quality Index (PSQI).ResultsA total of 508 (91.86%) of 553 students experienced poor sleep quality. The structural equation model showed a correlation of the PSQI with the CLES + T (r = −0.21, p < 0.001), a correlation of the PSQI with the SRS (r = 0.32, p < 0.001), and a correlation of the SRS with the CLES + T (r = −0.22, p < 0.001). Linear regression analysis showed that education (B = −0.56, p < 0.001), willingness to engage in nursing after graduation (B = −0.75, p < 0.001), pedagogical atmosphere in the ward (B = −0.05, p < 0.001) measured by the CLES + T, workload (B = 0.11, p = 0.01), interpersonal relationships (B = −0.12, p = 0.03), and conflicts between study and work (B = 0.12, p < 0.001) on the SRS were significant factors influencing the PSQI.ConclusionsPoor sleep quality is common among internship nurses and it's affected by clinical environment and mental stress. It's necessary to apply more tailored education programs to promote nursing development. 相似文献

ObjectiveTo determine the quantitative EEG responses in a population of drug-naïve patients with Temporal Lobe Epilepsy (TLE) after Levetiracetam (LEV) initiation as first antiepileptic drug (AED). We hypothesized that the outcome of AED treatment can be predicted from EEG data in patients with TLE.MethodsTwenty-three patients with TLE and twenty-five healthy controls were examined. Clinical outcome was dichotomized into seizure-free (SF) and non-seizure-free (NSF) after two years of LEV. EEG parameters were compared between healthy controls and patients with TLE at baseline (EEGpre) and after three months of AED therapy (EEGpre-post) and between SF and NSF patients. Receiver Operating Characteristic curves models were built to test whether EEG parameters predicted outcome.ResultsAED therapy induces an increase in EEG power for Alpha (p = 0.06) and a decrease in Theta (p < 0.05). Connectivity values were lower in SF compared to NSF patients (p < 0.001). Quantitative EEG predicted outcome after LEV treatment with an estimated accuracy varying from 65.2% to 91.3% (area under the curve [AUC] = 0.56–0.93) for EEGpre and from 69.9% to 86.9% (AUC = 0.69–0.94) for EEGpre-post.ConclusionsAED therapy induces EEG modifications in TLE patients, and such modifications are predictive of clinical outcome.SignificanceQuantitative EEG may help understanding the effect of AEDs in the central nervous system and offer new prognostic biomarkers for patients with epilepsy. 相似文献

BackgroundSupine sleeping position and obesity are well-known risk factors for obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) and modulate the risk for OSA-related daytime symptoms. Although respiratory event durations are associated with OSA-related severe health consequences, it is unclear how sleeping position, obesity, and daytime sleepiness are associated with respiratory event durations during REM and NREM sleep. We hypothesize that irrespective of the apnea-hypopnea index (AHI), respiratory event durations differ significantly between various OSA subgroups during REM and NREM sleep.MethodsOne night in-lab polysomnographic recordings were retrospectively analyzed from 1910 untreated suspected OSA patients. 599 patients (AHI ≥ 5) were included in study and divided into subgroups based on positional dependency, BMI, and daytime sleepiness (Epworth Sleepiness Scale and Multiple Sleep Latency Test). Differences in total hypopnea time (THT), total apnea time (TAT), and total apnea-hypopnea time (TAHT) within REM and NREM sleep between the subgroups were evaluated.ResultsDuring REM sleep, positional OSA patients had lower THT (OR = 0.952, p < 0.001) and TAHT (OR = 0.943, p < 0.001) than their non-positional counterparts. Compared to normal-weight patients (BMI < 25 kg/m2), obese patients (BMI ≥ 30 kg/m2) had lower THT, TAT, and TAHT (ORs = 0.942–0.971, p ≤ 0.009) during NREM sleep but higher THT (OR = 1.057, p = 0.001) and TAHT (OR = 1.052, p = 0.001) during REM sleep. No significant differences were observed in THT, TAT, and TAHT between patients with and without daytime sleepiness.ConclusionRegardless of the AHI, respiratory event durations vary significantly between OSA sub-groups during REM and NREM sleep. Therefore, to personalize OSA severity estimation the diagnosis should be tailored based on patient's demographics, clinical phenotype, and PSG characteristics. 相似文献

BackgroundAlterations in the levels of gamma-aminobutyric acid (GABA) and glutamate + glutamine (Glx), which are major inhibitory and excitatory neurotransmitters, respectively, are frequently associated with insomnia. Previous reports also suggested the involvement of the anterior cingulate cortex (ACC) and medial prefrontal cortex (mPFC) in insomnia and shorter sleep duration. In the current study, we investigated whether the GABA and Glx levels were altered in the ACC/mPFC in subclinical insomnia while focusing on the sleep duration.MethodsWe examined levels of GABA and Glx in the ACC/mPFC of the brain with magnetic resonance spectroscopy in 166 individuals with subjective sleep complaints but without a diagnosis of insomnia. Participants were divided into two groups according to sleep duration (≥6 h/night: n = 79 vs. < 6 h/night: n = 74), which was measured using a wrist-worn actigraphy. Working memory function and overall subjective sleep quality were assessed with a computerized neuropsychological test and self-report questionnaire, respectively.ResultsGABA levels in the ACC/mPFC were lower in the shorter sleep duration group relative to the longer sleep duration group (t = −2.21, p = 0.03). Glx levels did not differ between the two groups (t = −0.20, p = 0.84). Lower GABA levels were associated with lower spatial working memory performance in the shorter sleep duration group (β = −0.21, p = 0.03), but not the longer sleep duration group (β = 0.04, p = 0.72).ConclusionShorter sleep duration was associated with lower GABA levels in the ACC/mPFC. These findings may provide insight into the underlying mechanisms of impaired working memory function related to insomnia and sleep loss. 相似文献

AimsThe current study aimed to validate the relationship between sensory characteristics and sleep dynamics among children with autism spectrum disorder (ASD) using an actigraph, which is an objective assessment device used for sleep monitoring.MethodsA total of 40 children (age range, 3–6 years) participated in this study (n = 20, with ASD and n = 20, age-matched children with typical development [TD]). We examined sleep dynamics using actigraph for 7 consecutive days, and the relationship between sleep parameters and sensory characteristics was analyzed using the Japanese Version of Sensory Profile (SP-J).ResultsSignificant differences were observed in terms of activities per minute during sleep (p = 0.02), sleep efficiency (SE) (p = 0.005), and wake after sleep onset (WASO) (p = 0.02) between the two groups. In the ASD group, significant positive correlations were observed between activities per minute during sleep and low thresholds for Vestibular Sensory stimuli (p = 0.046) and Oral Sensory stimuli (p = 0.006) using the SP-J. Based on a multiple regression analysis, the activities per minute during sleep were associated with low thresholds for Oral Sensory stimuli (β = 0.51, t = 2.29, p = 0.03), but not with other factors, in the ASD group.ConclusionsThe current study showed that atypical Vestibular and Oral Sensory modulation may be a risk indicator for high activities during sleep among preschool children with ASD. Thus, whether the interventions for these sensory characteristics are effective in improving sleep quality, daytime activities, behaviors, and cognitive functions in this group of children must be considered. 相似文献

ObjectiveIsolated REM sleep without atonia (iRSWA) is regarded as a prodromal phase of REM sleep behavior disorder and synucleinopathies. In iRSWA patients, we investigated the polysomnographic characteristics that are known to be altered in (prodromal) Parkinson’s disease (PD): periodic limb movements of sleep [PLMS] (increased), REM density (reduced), and heart rate variability ([HRV] (reduced).MethodsWe compared video-polysomnographic studies of 49 iRSWA subjects with 41 controls. RSWA and PLMS were scored visually. REM density (REM/hour) and HRV were calculated automatically.ResultsWe found a higher median total (15.90 vs 7.20; p = 0.001), REM (21.80 vs 11.0; p < 0.001) and non-REM (11.75 vs 5.72; p = 0.027) PLMS index, and a higher mean REM density (342.45 vs 275.96; p = 0.010) in the iRSWA group, with a significant positive correlation between RSWA severity and these variables (r = 0.39; p < 0.00, r = 0.48; p < 0.001, r = 0.24; p = 0.021, r = 0.28; p = 0.012). We found no significant difference in HRV between groups.ConclusionsOur results suggest an association between RWSA and REM density and PLMS, but not HRV. The positive correlation between these variabilities may imply overlapping pathophysiological processes.SignificanceThe evidence of higher REM density and normal HRV weakens the hypothesis that iRWSA is a prodromal PD stage. An alternative interpretation is, however, that REM density and HRV change during caudal-rostral neurodegeneration. 相似文献

BackgroundCarbamazepine (CBZ) is a wildly used anti-epileptic drug (AED). Increasing evidence suggested that polymorphisms in Epoxide Hydrolase1 (EPHX1) gene are associated with the pharmacokinetics (PK) and pharmacodynamics (PD) of CBZ, albeit the results were inconsistent.MethodsA literature search on PubMed, Embase, and Cochrane Library was conducted to identify eligible studies published between 1974 and 2020. A meta-analysis was performed and the standardized mean difference (SMD) and 95% confidence interval (95% CI) were estimated using a random-effects model. The heterogeneity and leave-one-study-out sensitivity analyses of each article and the publication bias were also performed. All the statistical analyses were performed using STATA 14.0.ResultsA total of 6 articles with 1746 subjects were included in this meta-analysis. A significant correlation was detected between EPHX1 rs1051740 T > C polymorphisms and decreased plasma concentration of CBZ (TT vs CC: SMD = 0.34, P < 0.001; TC vs CC: SMD = 0.35, P = 0.009). However, similar results were not detected in the comparison of TT vs. TC in the EPHX1 rs1051740 T > C variation (P = 0.637), while subgroup analyses showed an association with plasma CBZ concentration in the non-Asian group (P < 0.001, I2 = 0.0%, Ph = 0.400). Although the association of EPHX1 rs2234922 A > G polymorphisms with plasma CBZ concentration was not detected (AA vs GG:SMD = 0.54, P = 0.102; AA vs AG:SMD = −0.05, P = 0.670; AG vs GG: SMD = 0.86, P = 0.107), subgroup analyses showed that the GG genotype EPHX1 rs2234922 was associated with increased plasma CBZ concentration in the Asian group (P = 0.005, I2 = 48.6%, Ph = 0.143).ConclusionEPHX1 rs1051740 T > C and rs2234922 A > G are important genetic variants associated with plasma CBZ concentration. The role of EPHX1 polymorphisms in the interindividual variability of plasma CBZ concentration varied significantly among different ethnic groups, which should be considered during clinical validation and in future studies. 相似文献

ObjectivesBlack adults in the United States have shorter sleep durations and poorer sleep efficiency relative to White adults, yet reasons for these disparities are not well explicated. The objective of this study was to examine neighborhood safety in childhood as a mediator of subsequent racial disparities in sleep.MethodsData were from Black and White young adults attending a large, predominantly White university in the Southeastern United States (N = 263; 52% Black, 53% female; Mean age = 19.21 years, SD = 1.01). Sleep parameters were assessed from eight nights of wrist actigraphy (time in bed, sleep duration, and efficiency) and an established self-report measure of daytime sleepiness. Residential histories from birth through age 18 were documented, and retrospective self-reports of neighborhood safety in childhood were assessed.ResultsBlack participants had less time in bed (p < 0.001), shorter sleep duration (p < 0.001), poorer sleep efficiency (p < 0.001), and more daytime sleepiness (p = 0.009) than White participants. Neighborhood safety mediated race differences in time in bed (p = 0.028), sleep duration (p = 0.033), and daytime sleepiness (p = 0.048), but not sleep efficiency. Findings were substantively unchanged after adjustment for family socioeconomic status, BMI, and substance use.ConclusionsFindings support the hypothesis that neighborhood safety in childhood may partially account for race differences in subsequent sleep duration and daytime sleepiness. Addressing racial inequities in childhood neighborhood safety may be an important step toward reducing racial disparities in sleep health. 相似文献

ObjectiveThe aim of the study was to compare the prevalence, type, and severity of sleep apnea during the acute phase of ischemic stroke among patients either receiving or not receiving thrombolysis.MethodsWe recruited 246 consecutive adult ischemic stroke patients. Patients underwent cardiorespiratory sleep study with portable three-channel device during the first 48 h after the symptom onset of ischemic stroke.ResultsWe enrolled 110 (65.5% male) stroke patients in the thrombolysis group and 94 (59.6% male) in the nonthrombolysis group. In the thrombolysis group, the median National Institutes of Health Stroke Scale (NIHSS) score was higher (5.5) compared to the nonthrombolysis group (2.0) (p < 0.001). There was a lower incidence of lacunar (17.3% vs 36.2%, p = 0.002) and cerebellar (2.7% vs 16.0%, p < 0.001) strokes and a higher frequency of middle cerebral artery syndrome (60.9% vs 33.0%, p < 0.001) in the thrombolysis group compared to the nonthrombolysis group. Sleep apnea defined as an apnea–hypopnea index (AHI) ≥ 5/h was diagnosed in 186 (91.2%) patients, its prevalence being higher in the thrombolysis (96.4%) compared to the nonthrombolysis (85.1%) group (p = 0.007). The mean baseline AHI was 33.7/h in the thrombolysis group compared to 26.8/h in the nonthrombolysis group (p = 0.017).ConclusionSleep apnea was present in the vast majority of ischemic stroke patients. The stroke patients treated with thrombolysis were more likely to have sleep apnea, to have elevated NIHSS score at admission, and to be younger. Sleep apnea was more severe among those receiving thrombolysis as compared to those who were not.Clinical trial registrationURL: http://www.clinicaltrials.cov. Unique identifier: NCT01861275. 相似文献

Study objectivesVariation in day length is proposed to impact sleep, yet it is unknown whether this is above the influence of behavioural factors. Day length, sleep hygiene, and parent-set bedtime were simultaneously explored, to investigate the relative importance of each on adolescents’ sleep.MethodsAn online survey was distributed in four countries at varying latitudes/longitudes (Australia, The Netherlands, Canada, Norway).ResultsOverall, 711 (242 male; age M = 15.7 ± 1.6, range = 12–19 yrs) adolescents contributed data. Hierarchical regression analyses showed good sleep hygiene was associated with earlier bedtime, shorter sleep latency, and longer sleep (β = −0.34; −0.30; 0.32, p < 0.05, respectively). Shorter day length predicted later bedtime (β = 0.11, p = 0.009), decreased sleep latency (β = −0.21, p < 0.001), and total sleep (β = −0.14, p = 0.001). Longer day length predicted earlier bedtimes (β = −0.11, p = 0.004), and longer sleep (β = 0.10, p = 0.011).ConclusionsSleep hygiene had the most clinical relevance for improving sleep, thus should be considered when implementing adolescent sleep interventions, particularly as small negative effects of shorter day length may be minimised through sleep hygiene techniques. 相似文献
