Comparison of sleep structure in patients with fibromyalgia and healthy controls.

CONCLUSIONS: Our findings may explain the deterioration of subjective sleep, symptoms as unrefreshing sleep, fatigue, and pain in patients with FMS. Despite similar clinical manifestations, patients with FMS should be evaluated for OSAS due to treatment differences. The role of sleep alterations in the clinical manifestation and severity of FMS suggest that effective treatments to improve sleep quality may lead to more effective management of FMS.
