Disorders of sleep in spinal and bulbar muscular atrophy (Kennedy's disease).

CONCLUSIONS: In patients with SBMA, sleep-disordered breathing may comprise both OSA and nocturnal hypoventilation. REM sleep without atonia may also be found, but its clinical significance remains unclear. In patients complaining of sleep-related symptoms, cardiorespiratory polysomnography and transcutaneous capnometry are recommended. PMID: 33219909 [PubMed - as supplied by publisher]
