RESUMO
OBJECTIVE: To examine the associations of excessive daytime sleepiness (EDS) and probable rapid eye movement sleep behavior disorder (pRBD), respectively, with impulsive-compulsive behaviors (ICBs) over a 5-year follow-up in patients with early Parkinson's disease (PD). METHODS: The Parkinson's Progression Markers Initiative is a multicenter cohort study based on an ongoing and open-ended registry. Longitudinal associations of sleep disorders with ICB over 5-year follow-up visits were estimated using generalized linear mixed-effects models among PD participants. RESULTS: A total of 825 PD participants were enrolled at baseline. The study sample had a median baseline age of 63.1 (interquartile range: 55.6-69.3) years and comprised 496 (61.5%) men. Among them, 201 (24.9%) had ICB at baseline. In the generalized mixed-effects models, EDS (odds ratio [OR] = 1.09, 95% confidence interval [CI] 1.05, 1.12) and RBD (OR = 1.07, 95% CI 1.03, 1.12) were substantially associated with higher odds of developing ICB over time in PD patients, after multivariate adjustment including age, gender, family history, GDS score, STAI-Y score, MDS-UPDRS part III score, LEDD, and disease duration. Consistent results were observed when stratifying by age at baseline, gender, and PD family history. CONCLUSIONS: The study findings suggest a longitudinal association between EDS and pRBD with an increased risk of developing ICB in patients with PD. The findings emphasize the significance of evaluating and addressing sleep disorders in PD patients as a potential approach to managing ICB.

BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE: The diagnosis of sleep-wake disorders (SWDs) is challenging because of the existence of only few accurate biomarkers and the frequent coexistence of multiple SWDs and/or other comorbidities. The aim of this study was to assess in a large cohort of well-characterized SWD patients the potential of a data-driven approach for the identification of SWDs. METHODS: We included 6958 patients from the Bernese Sleep Registry and 300 variables/biomarkers including questionnaires, results of polysomnography/vigilance tests, and final clinical diagnoses. A pipeline, based on machine learning, was created to extract and cluster the clinical data. Our analysis was performed on three cohorts: patients with central disorders of hypersomnolence (CDHs), a full cohort of patients with SWDs, and a clean cohort without coexisting SWDs. RESULTS: A first analysis focused on the cohort of patients with CDHs and revealed four patient clusters: two clusters for narcolepsy type 1 (NT1) but not for narcolepsy type 2 or idiopathic hypersomnia. In the full cohort of SWDs, nine clusters were found: four contained patients with obstructive and central sleep apnea syndrome, one with NT1, and four with intermixed SWDs. In the cohort of patients without coexisting SWDs, an additional cluster of patients with chronic insomnia disorder was identified. CONCLUSIONS: This study confirms the existence of clear clusters of NT1 in CDHs, but mainly intermixed groups in the full spectrum of SWDs, with the exception of sleep apnea syndromes and NT1. New biomarkers are needed for better phenotyping and diagnosis of SWDs.

PURPOSE: This cross-sectional study aimed to investigate the prevalence and characteristics of supplement usage among cancer patients and explore its potential associations with anxiety, excessive daytime sleepiness, and overall quality of life. METHODS: Cancer patients receiving specific care at Hôtel Dieu de France University Hospital, Beirut, were enrolled between April and June 2023. In face-to-face interviews, participants were asked to complete a questionnaire consisting of sociodemographic information, supplement usage details, and cancer-related variables. Three validated surveys (Epworth Sleepiness Scale, GAD-7, and EORTC-QLQ-C15-PAL) were employed to assess excessive daytime sleepiness, anxiety, and overall quality of life. Statistical analyses, including chi-square tests, t-tests, and multiple regression models, were conducted to examine associations between supplement use and other variables. RESULTS: A total of 202 participants were interviewed. Fifty-two percent reported regular use of supplements following their cancer diagnosis, with vitamin D being the most commonly used supplement. Using multivariate logistic regression, supplement use was associated with being female, having lower educational levels, having a longer duration since cancer diagnosis, and having a poor overall quality of life. The multivariate logistic regression showed no significant correlation between supplement use and excessive daytime sleepiness and anxiety. CONCLUSION: This study highlights a high prevalence of supplement usage among cancer patients in Lebanon, indicating a rising interest in alternative therapies aimed at enhancing quality of life. Larger prospective studies are needed to assess the relation between supplement intake and excessive daytime sleepiness and anxiety and establish clear guidelines pertaining to supplement use in cancer patients.

OBJECTIVE: To investigate the prevalence and associated factors of excessive daytime sleepiness (EDS) among rural-dwelling Chinese older adults. METHODS: We collected data on demographic, epidemiological, and clinical factors via in-person interviews and clinical examinations following a structured questionnaire. The 15-item Geriatric Depression Scale (GDS-15) was used to assess depressive symptoms, the Berlin questionnaire (BQ) to assess obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) risk; and the Epworth Sleepiness Scale (ESS) to assess sleep characteristics. EDS was defined as the total ESS score > 10. RESULTS: This population-based study engaged 4845 participants (age ≥ 65 years, 57.3% female) in the 2018 examination of the Multimodal Interventions to Delay Dementia and Disability in Rural China. The prevalence of EDS was 9.3% in the total sample, 8.3% in females, and 10.6% in males, and the prevalence decreased with advanced age. Logistic regression analysis revealed that EDS was significantly associated with age (multivariable-adjusted odds ratio [OR] = 0.97; 95% confidence interval [CI] 0.95-0.99), female sex (0.53; 0.36-0.77), hypertension (0.68; 0.54-0.85), depressive symptoms (2.68; 2.07-3.46), high OSA risk (2.11; 1.69-2.63), and poor sleep quality (2.12; 1.60-2.82). CONCLUSION: EDS affects nearly one-tenth of rural older adults in China. Older age, female sex, and hypertension were associated with a decreased likelihood of EDS, while depressive symptoms, high OSA risk, and poor sleep quality were correlated with an elevated likelihood of EDS.

BACKGROUND: The association between nighttime sleep disturbance and daytime sleepiness remains unclear. This study aimed to examine the relationships between various domains of nighttime sleep disturbance, daytime sleepiness, and their specific dimensions. METHODS: This was a community-based cross-sectional study. The participants were adults aged 65 years and older from Yilan City, Taiwan. Daytime sleepiness (DS) was defined using the Epworth Sleepiness Scale (ESS) with scores ≥ 11. The ESS dimensions were further examined using exploratory factor analysis. The highest 15% factor scores for each factor were defined as factor-specific DS. Various domains of nighttime sleep disturbance were assessed using the Pittsburgh Sleep Quality Index. Logistic regression analysis was used to examine the independent relationships among various nighttime sleep disturbances, ESS, and its dimensions. RESULTS: Of the 2585 participants, a total of 59.0% were women. Two factors were identified by exploratory factor analysis and were designated as 'passive factor' and 'active factor'. Multiple logistic regression analyses elucidated that short sleep duration was a common risk indicator for ESS-defined (odds ratio (OR): 2.01; 95% confidence interval (CI): 1.43-2.83), passive factor-defined (OR: 2.23, 95% CI: 1.65-3.00), and active factor-defined DS (OR: 1.47, 95% CI: 1.07-2.00). Hypnotic use was associated with a lower risk of both ESS-defined (OR: 0.66, 95% CI: 0.47-0.92) and passive factor-defined DS (OR:0.69, 95% CI: 0.52-0.92). Bathroom use (OR: 1.41, 95% CI: 1.04-1.91), coughing or snoring (OR: 2.14, 95% CI: 1.01-4.56), and sleep efficiency (OR: 0.42; 95% CI: 0.31-0.57) were uniquely associated with active factor-defined DS. CONCLUSION: Two factors were identified in the ESS, revealing factor-specific correlates of DS. Specifically, ESS- and passive factor-defined DS shared similar correlates. In contrast, some correlates seem unique to active-factor-defined DS.

This is a narrative review of sleep disorders, especially chronic insomnia, as a primary diagnosis or as a comorbid diagnosis associated with different psychiatric and organic diseases. The epidemiological evidence is reviewed, the diagnostic criteria most frequently used in clinical practice are examined, and a series of therapeutic recommendations for the correct treatment of this pathology is presented. Sleep disorders are very prevalent in the general population (one-third experiences difficulty with sleep initiation/maintenance at least once a week, and about 6-15% meet the criteria for insomnia disorders), but remain relatively poorly understood and frequently overlooked by healthcare professionals. Prevalence estimates of insomnia disorder vary between 5% and 20%. Sleep disorders co-exist with psychiatric and medical conditions with an interactive and bidirectional relationship. About 70-80% of psychiatric patients show some sleep disturbance and there is a correlation between the severity of the sleep disturbance and the severity of the psychopathology. Untreated sleep disorders increase the risk of cardiovascular events, cognitive impairment, motor vehicle accidents, obesity, diabetes, and efficiency and safety at work, leading to increased all-cause healthcare utilization and being a strong predictor of sick leave or disability pension and poor quality of life. Sleep disorders can cause drowsiness or excessive daytime sleepiness, which can lead to functional impairment in 15% of the general adult population. Sleep quality should be a routine target in the evaluation of patients with psychiatric and non-psychiatric diseases to ensure sleep health based on early diagnosis and adequate therapeutic approaches.

OBJECTIVES: The association between excessive daytime sleepiness and health-related quality of life among older adults and at-risk individuals remains unclear. This study examined relationships between excessive daytime sleepiness and unfavorable health-related quality of life and explored the moderating effect of sex. STUDY DESIGN: This was a community-based study of adults aged 65 years or more. Excessive daytime sleepiness was defined as a score exceeding 10 on the Epworth Sleepiness Scale. Multiple logistic regression analyses were used to examine the relationships between excessive daytime sleepiness and health-related quality of life. The moderating effect of sex was examined by testing interaction terms. MAIN OUTCOME MEASURES: Health-related quality of life was measured using the Short Form 12 Health Survey, which includes a physical component summary and a mental component summary. Unfavorable health-related quality of life was defined as the lowest tertile of the scores for both components. RESULTS: In total, 3788 individuals participated. After controlling for covariates, older adults with excessive daytime sleepiness did not have an unfavorable physical component summary but were more likely to have an unfavorable mental component summary (odds ratio 1.96; 95 % confidence interval 1.47-2.61). When stratified by sex, excessive daytime sleepiness was associated with a poor physical component summary in men (odds ratio 1.77, 95 % confidence interval 1.00-3.13) but not in women. CONCLUSIONS: Excessive daytime sleepiness was associated with a poor mental component summary in both sexes; however, the association with a poor physical component summary was specific to men.

OBJECTIVE: The study aimed to investigate secular trends in sleep and circadian problems in Hong Kong Chinese adolescents. METHODS: This study analyzed cross-sectional data from two large-scale school-based sleep surveys conducted in 2011-2012 and 2017-2019. Sleep and circadian problems, including sleep-wake pattern, insomnia, chronotype, social jetlag, daytime sleepiness, and other sleep-related factors, were compared between two survey years. RESULTS: A total of 8082 adolescents (5639 students in 2011-2012 [Mean age: 14.4 years, 50.9% boys] and 2443 students in 2017-2019 [Mean age: 14.7 years, 54.0% boys]) were included in this 7-year study. The average time in bed of Hong Kong adolescents decreased from 8.38 hours to 8.08 hours from 2011-2012 to 2017-2019. There was a 0.28-hour delay in weekday bedtime, 0.54-hour advance in weekend wake-up time, and a 0.36-hour decline in average time in bed, resulting in increased trends of sleep loss (Time in bed <8h: OR = 2.06, 95%CI: 1.44-2.93, p < 0.01; Time in bed <7h: OR = 2.73, 95%CI: 1.92-3.89, p < 0.01), daytime sleepiness (OR = 1.70, 95%CI: 1.34-2.16, p < 0.01), and evening chronotype (OR = 1.26, 95%CI: 1.08-1.48, p < 0.01). The increased trend in insomnia disorder, however, was insignificant when covariates were adjusted. CONCLUSION: A secular trend of reduced time in bed, delay in weekday bedtime, advance in weekend wake-up time, increase in evening chronotype and daytime sleepiness from 2011-2012 to 2017-2019 were observed. There is a timely need for systematic intervention to promote sleep health in adolescents.

BACKGROUND: Physical activity was suggested to be related to sleep health, while the gardening-sleep association among the community population remained unrevealed. Therefore, this study aimed to explore whether gardening was associated with sleep complaints. METHODS: A total of 62,098 adults from the 2017 Behavioral Risk Factor Surveillance System (BRFSS) were included in this study and further categorized as non-exercisers, gardeners, and other exercisers, based on their self-reported exercise status. Sleep complaints including short/prolonged sleep duration, probable insomnia, daytime sleepiness, and sleep apnea were surveyed via a questionnaire. Primary outcome was multiple sleep complaints (coexistence of ≥2 sleep complaints) and secondary outcomes referred to individual sleep complaints. The adjusted odds ratios (ORs) and 95 % confidence intervals (CIs) were estimated to assess the associations between gardening or tertiles of gardening duration and the outcomes using multivariable logistic regression models. RESULTS: The sample included 16,707 non-exercisers, 4243 gardeners, and 41,148 other exercisers. Relative to non-exercisers, gardeners (OR 0.58, 95%CI 0.49-0.67) and other exercisers (OR 0.67, 95%CI 0.61-0.72) had a lower likelihood of experiencing multiple sleep complaints. The adjusted OR comparing the highest gardening duration tertile to non-exercise was 0.45 (95%CI 0.33-0.63) for multiple sleep complaints (P for trend <0.001). Similar patterns persisted in several individual sleep complaints, such as short sleep duration, probable insomnia, daytime sleepiness, and sleep apnea. LIMITATIONS: Cross-sectional study design and use of self-reported variables. CONCLUSIONS: This nationwide study observed an inverse association of gardening with multiple sleep complaints and several individual sleep complaints, in a dose-response manner.

OBJECTIVE/BACKGROUND: Kleine-Levin syndrome (KLS) is a rare sleep disorder characterized by recurrent episodes of severe hypersomnolence in association with various degrees of cognitive impairment, perceptive abnormalities, apathy, behavioral disturbances. Some of these symptoms, hypersomnolence, compulsive eating and increased sexual drive may be replaced by their opposites or alternate with them. Remarkably enough, these « atypical symptoms ¼ have never been enlighted nor compared in frequency with corresponding typical symptoms. Besides, KLS is more frequent in males than in females but no review has ever compared the frequency of precipitating factors and symptoms in males and females. PATIENTS/METHODS: To uncover these as yet uninvestigated aspects of KLS, a predesigned template was used to extract precipitating factors and symptoms, in 475 case reports of KLS, comprising 364 males and 111 females. RESULTS: Precipitating factors were more frequently recorded in males (67.31 %) than in females (49.55 %). Recurrent episodes of hypersomnolencee were present in 94.32 % of cases, recurrent insomnia in 1.05 % and alternation of hypersomnolence and insomnia in 4.63 %. Cognitive impairment was present in 67.37 % of cases and absent in 6.95 %. Derealization/altered perception was present in 38.32 % of cases and absent in 1.68 %. Severe apathy was present in 44.63 % of cases. Compulsive eating was present in 59.58 % of cases, absent in 13.26 %, replaced by anorexia in 9.05 %, alternation of compulsive eating and anorexia in 5.68 % and alternation of compulsive eating and no compulsive eating in 8.42 %. Increased sexual drive was present in 33.68 % of cases, absent in 22.74 %, replaced by decreased sexual drive in 1.47 %, alternation of increased sexual drive and no increased sexual drive in 2.95 %. Odd behaviors were present in 45.05 % of cases. Psychiatric features were present in 71.58 % of cases, absent in 2.95 %. Finally, the percentages of precipitating factors and of sleep disorder, apathy, sexual disorder, irritability/agressivity, were higher in males than in females. CONCLUSIONS: The frequency of the opposites of hypersomnolence, compulsive eating and increased sexual drive appears to be quite significant. In addition, a systematic comparison of precipitating factors and symptoms in males and females has shown limited differences between sexes.

BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVES: Idiopathic hypersomnia (IH) is a CNS disorder of hypersomnolence of unknown etiology. Due to the requirement for objective sleep testing to diagnose the disorder, there are currently no population-based estimates of the prevalence of IH nor data regarding the longitudinal course of IH in naturalistic settings. METHODS: Subjective and objective data from the Wisconsin Sleep Cohort study were used to identify cases with probable IH from participants with polysomnography and multiple sleep latency test data. Demographic, polysomnographic, and symptom-level data were compared between those with and without IH. Longitudinal trajectories of daytime sleepiness among those with IH were assessed to evaluate symptom persistence or remission over time. RESULTS: From 792 cohort study participants with available polysomnography and multiple sleep latency test data, 12 cases with probable IH were identified resulting in an estimated prevalence of IH of 1.5% (95% CI 0.7-2.5, p < 0.0001). Consistent with inclusion/exclusion criteria, cases with IH had more severe sleepiness and sleep propensity, despite similar or longer sleep times. Longitudinal data (spanning 12.1 ± 4.3 years) demonstrated a chronic course of sleepiness for most of the cases with IH, though pathologic somnolence remitted in roughly 40% of cases. DISCUSSION: These results demonstrate IH is more common in the working population than generally assumed with a prevalence on par with other common neurologic and psychiatric conditions. Further efforts to identify and diagnose those impaired by unexplained daytime somnolence may help clarify the causes of IH and the mechanisms underlying symptomatic remission.

STUDY OBJECTIVES: Sleep disturbances are common in adolescence and associated with a host of negative outcomes. Here, we assess associations between multifaceted sleep disturbances and a broad set of psychological, cognitive, and demographic variables using a data-driven approach, canonical correlation analysis (CCA). METHODS: Baseline data from 9093 participants from the Adolescent Brain Cognitive Development (ABCD) Study were examined using CCA, a multivariate statistical approach that identifies many-to-many associations between two sets of variables by finding combinations for each set of variables that maximize their correlation. We combined CCA with leave-one-site-out cross-validation across ABCD sites to examine the robustness of results and generalizability to new participants. The statistical significance of canonical correlations was determined by non-parametric permutation tests that accounted for twin, family, and site structure. To assess the stability of the associations identified at baseline, CCA was repeated using 2-year follow-up data from 4247 ABCD Study participants. RESULTS: Two significant sets of associations were identified: (1) difficulty initiating and maintaining sleep and excessive daytime somnolence were strongly linked to nearly all domains of psychopathology (r2â =â 0.36, pâ <â .0001); (2) sleep breathing disorders were linked to BMI and African American/black race (r2â =â 0.08, pâ <â .0001). These associations generalized to unseen participants at all 22 ABCD sites and were replicated using 2-year follow-up data. CONCLUSIONS: These findings underscore interwoven links between sleep disturbances in early adolescence and psychological, social, and demographic factors.

OBJECTIVE: Excessive daytime sleepiness (EDS) frequently accompanies obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) and may increase cardiovascular risks. The majority of coronary artery disease (CAD) patients receive understandard treatments, it is not clear whether EDS is associated with increased residual cardiovascular risks in CAD patients with OSA. METHOD: This study is a prospective cohort study that included 1215 consecutive CAD patients underwent overnight sleep study with a 3.7 year follow-up. Sleepiness was is determined by the Epworth Sleepiness Scale questionnaire. The primary endpoint was major adverse cardiovascular and cerebrovascular events (MACCE), including cardiovascular death, myocardial infarction, stroke, and heart failure. Kaplan-Meier model and Cox proportional hazards models were used to explore the relationship between residual cardiovascular risks and EDS. RESULT: 1027 cases were eventually enrolled, and a total of 129 patients experienced cardiovascular and cerebrovascular events. Participants with EDS had a higher risk of MACCE compared to those without EDS (17.02% vs. 9.58%, P = 0.005). The presence of EDS is associated with higher incidence of MACCE compared to non-EDS patients (HR 2.833; 95%CI:1.394-5.762; P < 0.001). EDS was significantly associated with increased incidence of MACCE in OSA patients (HR 1.765; 95%CI:1.276-2.543; P = 0.193), while there was no significant association between EDS and cardiovascular risks in non-OSA patients (HR 1.233; 95%CI: 0.893-2.755; P = 0.127). CONCLUSIONS: The existence of EDS may lead to increased cardiovascular risks, EDS is associated with increased cardiovascular risks in CAD patients, especially in patients with OSA.

OBJECTIVE: It is hypothesized that narcolepsy type 1 (NT1) develops in genetically susceptible people who encounter environmental triggers leading to immune-mediated hypocretin-1 deficiency. The pathophysiologies of narcolepsy type 2 (NT2) and idiopathic hypersomnia (IH) remain unknown. The main aim of this study was to collect all reported immunological events before onset of a central disorder of hypersomnolence. METHODS: Medical records of 290 people with NT1, and 115 with NT2 or IH were retrospectively reviewed to extract infection and influenza vaccination history. Prevalence, distribution of immunological events, and time until hypersomnolence onset were compared between NT1 and the combined group of NT2 and IH. RESULTS: Immunological events were frequently reported before hypersomnolence disorder onset across groups. Flu and H1N1 influenza vaccination were more common in NT1, and Epstein-Barr virus and other respiratory and non-respiratory infections in NT2 and IH. Distributions of events were comparable between NT2 and IH. Rapid symptom onset within one month of infection was frequent across groups, especially after flu infection in NT1. Hypersomnolence disorder progression after an immunological event was reported in ten individuals. CONCLUSIONS: Our findings suggest a variety of immunological triggers potentially related to NT1, including H1N1 influenza infection or vaccination, infection with other flu types, and other respiratory and non-respiratory infections. Frequent reports of immunological events (other than those reported in NT1) immediately prior to the development of NT2 and IH support the specificity of triggers for NT1, and open important new research avenues into possible underlying immunological mechanisms in NT2 and IH.

OBJECTIVE: The aim of this study was to assess medical students' quality of sleep and excessive daytime sleepiness in different graduation cycles. METHODS: A cross-sectional study was carried out at a private university in Maceió, Brazil, from August 2021 to March 2022. The sample was composed of medical students aged 18 years and above from years 1-2 (basic cycle), 3-4 (clinical cycle), and 5-6 (internship) of Medical School who were invited to answer two validated questionnaires: the Pittsburgh Sleeping Quality Index and the Epworth Sleepiness Scale. RESULTS: A total of 179 students participated; most of them were female (78.2%), aged 19-25 years (73.7%), and with a body mass index<25 kg/m2 (73.7%), with smaller participation from students from the basic cycle (21.2%). Analyzing the Pittsburgh Sleeping Quality Index, 55.9% of the students were classified as having poor sleep quality, with no difference in sleep category between gender, age, body mass index, and graduation cycle. Students with a body mass index of ≥25 kg/m2 had longer sleep latency (p=0.016) and shorter sleep duration (p=0.027). The Epworth Sleepiness Scale assessment showed that 44.1% of the students exhibit daytime sleepiness. Women had more daytime sleepiness than men (p=0.017), with no difference between age, body mass index, and graduation cycle. CONCLUSION: About half of the medical students experience poor sleep quality and daytime sleepiness, regardless of the graduation cycle. This should trigger a targeted institutional intervention to promote better mental and physical health, as well as sleep hygiene, to reduce future health issues.

RATIONALE: Comorbid insomnia and sleep apnea is reported to have worse outcomes than either condition alone. The local genetic correlations of these disorders are unknown. OBJECTIVES: To identify local genomic regions with heritability for clinically diagnosed sleep apnea and insomnia, and to identify local genetic correlations between these disorders and/or hypersomnia. METHODS: Fifty thousand two hundred seventeen patients of European ancestry were examined. Global and local heritability and genetic correlations for independent regions were calculated, adjusting for obesity and other covariates. RESULTS: Sleep apnea and insomnia were significantly globally heritable and had 118 and 168 genetic regions with local heritability p-values <.05, respectively. One region had a significant genetic correlation for sleep apnea and hypersomnia (p-value = 9.85 × 10-4). CONCLUSIONS: Clinically diagnosed sleep apnea and insomnia have minimal shared genetic architecture, supporting genetically distinct comorbid insomnia and sleep apnea components. However, additional correlated regions may be identified with additional sample size and methodological improvements.

OBJECTIVE: Excessive daytime sleepiness (EDS) persists in some patients with obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) despite continuous positive airway pressure (CPAP) treatment. This study characterized response to CPAP and factors associated with residual EDS. METHODS: Danish National Patient Registry data were analyzed. Patients with OSA diagnosis (1994-2016), Epworth Sleepiness Scale (ESS) scores and apnea-hypopnea index recorded before beginning CPAP (baseline) and after 1-13 months of CPAP use, and CPAP adherence were included. Odds ratios (OR) for residual EDS after CPAP treatment were estimated using multivariate logistic regression. RESULTS: Of 1174 patients (mean age, 57 years; 75.5% male), 41.1% had baseline EDS (mild, 13.2%; moderate, 14.0%; severe, 13.9%); 58.9% did not. After CPAP treatment, follow-up mean ESS scores were normal (≤10) for all baseline EDS subgroups; however, 15.6% (n = 183) of patients had residual EDS (mild, 6.7%; moderate, 5.5%; severe, 3.4%). Odds of residual EDS were higher for patients with mild (OR, 5.2; 95% confidence interval [CI], 3.2-8.6), moderate (OR, 4.5; 95% CI, 2.7-7.4), and severe (OR, 13.0; 95% CI, 8.0-21.2) EDS at baseline compared with those with normal daytime sleepiness at baseline. Patients adherent with CPAP use were 38.2% less likely to have residual EDS compared with nonadherent patients (OR, 0.62; 95% CI, 0.43-0.88). CONCLUSIONS: EDS was common in this cohort of Danish patients with OSA. Baseline EDS severity predicted higher odds of residual EDS. After CPAP treatment, adherence was associated with reduced odds of residual EDS, but EDS persisted in a subgroup of patients.

BACKGROUND: Daytime sleepiness is an important health problem. However, the dimensionality of the Epworth Sleepiness Scale (ESS) in older adults remains unclear. This study aimed to determine the prevalence of ESS-defined excessive daytime sleepiness in older adults. Furthermore, the dimensionality of ESS and its respective correlates were also compared. MATERIALS AND METHODS: This is a community-based survey in which community-dwelling older adults aged ≥ 65 years participated. Excessive daytime sleepiness was assessed using the ESS and was defined as an ESS score of > 10. Exploratory factor analysis was performed to identify the ESS factors. Multiple logistic regression analysis was used to examine the independent correlates of the ESS-defined and factor-specific correlates of excessive daytime sleepiness. RESULTS: In total, 3978 older adults participated in this study. The mean age was 76.6 ± 6.7 years, with 53.8% ≥ 75 years, and 57.1% were female. The prevalence of ESS-defined excessive daytime sleepiness was 16.0%. An exploratory factor analysis revealed two factors in the ESS, which were designated as 'passive' and 'active' according to the soporific levels of ESS items loaded in each factor. Multiple logistic regression showed that male, illiteracy, depression, disability, short sleep duration and no exposure to hypnotics were risk indicators for ESS-defined excessive daytime sleepiness. However, the correlates for passive and active factor-defined excessive daytime sleepiness differ in pattern, especially in variables related to education, exercise, mental health, and sleep. CONCLUSIONS: The prevalence of ESS-defined excessive daytime sleepiness is high, and its correlates vary among older adults. This study also suggests a dual ESS structure in community-dwelling older adults.
Daytime sleepiness is prevalent in older adults.The Epworth Sleepiness Scale (ESS) has dual constructs in older adults.Correlates for excessive daytime sleepiness vary by constructs of the ESS.

OBJECTIVE: This study aimed to investigate the prevalence, clinical correlates and the relationship between hypersomnolence and clinical outcomes in a cohort of MDD patients. METHODS: This is a cross-sectional study of a MDD cohort in an university-affiliated adult psychiatric outpatient clinic. The diagnosis of MDD and severity of depression were ascertained by the clinician with structured clinical interviews. Each participant completed the Epworth Sleepiness Scale (ESS), 1-week sleep diary, and a battery of questionnaires that assessed usual sleep pattern, insomnia, anxiety, depression, fatigue and circadian preference. Hypersomnolence was defined as ESS score ≥14 among those reported ≥7 h of nighttime sleep. Univariate analysis and multiple logistic regression were used to analyze the relationships between the variables. RESULTS: Among 252 recruited subjects, 11 % met the criteria of hypersomnolence as defined by a ESS score ≥14 despite ≥7 h of nighttime sleep. Patients with hypersomnolence had greater depression ratings, higher rates of suicidal ideations over the past week, and more likely to meet a diagnosis of atypical depression (p < 0.05) than those without hypersomnolence. Step-wise logistic regression demonstrated that hypersomnolence was an independent risk factor associated with a 3-fold increase in the risk of depression non-remission (adjusted OR 3.13; 95 % CI 1.10-8.95; p = 0.034). CONCLUSION: Patients with hypersomnolence despite seemingly adequate sleep represent a subgroup of MDD patients who have a more severe illness profile with higher non-remission rate and suicidality. The findings highlight the importance of addressing both sleep and mood symptoms in the management of MDD.

BACKGROUND: While there are limited studies focusing on sleep quality of family caregivers of children with Spinal Muscular Atrophy (SMA), there are no studies on daytime sleepiness in SMA. AIMS: This study aimed a) to compare the sleep quality and daytime sleepiness between caregivers of children with SMA and those of healthy peers and b) to investigate the sleep quality and daytime sleepiness of family caregivers of children with different types of SMA. METHODS AND PROCEDURES: This study included 30 family caregivers of children with SMA (SMA Type 1:12, SMA Type 2:10, and SMA Type 3:8) and 31 family caregivers of healthy peers. Sleep quality and daytime sleepiness of family caregivers were evaluated using the Pittsburg Sleep Quality Index (PSQI) and the Epworth Sleepiness Scale (EPS), consecutively. OUTCOMES AND RESULTS: Demographic characteristics of children with SMA and healthy peers were similar (p > 0.05). The mean ages of family caregivers of children with SMA and healthy peers were 36.07 ± 5.84 and 35.26 ± 5.02 years, respectively (p = 0.6). The PSQI scores of family caregivers of children with SMA (7.50 ± 3.90 points) were lower than those of healthy peers (4.09 ± 1.97 points) (p < 0.001). There was no difference in PSQI scores between SMA types (p = 0.8). Also, no difference was found between SMA types and between SMA and healthy peers in terms of EPS (p > 0.05). CONCLUSIONS AND IMPLICATIONS: Family caregivers of children with SMA had poor sleep quality but similar daytime sleepiness compared with those of healthy peers. Among SMA types, family caregivers had similar sleep quality and daytime sleepiness. It was demonstrated that the sleep quality of family caregivers should be taken into consideration in the disease management of SMA.
