Sleep and Stroke: Opening Our Eyes to Current Knowledge of a Key Relationship
AbstractPurpose of ReviewTo elucidate the interconnection between sleep and stroke.Recent FindingsGrowing data support a bidirectional relationship between stroke and sleep. In particular, there is strong evidence that sleep-disordered breathing plays a pivotal role as risk factor and concur to worsening functional outcome. Conversely, for others sleep disorders (e.g., insomnia, restless legs syndrome, periodic limb movements of sleep, REM sleep behavior disorder), the evidence is weak. Moreover, sleep disturbances are highly prevalent also in chronic stroke and concur to worsening quality of life of patients.Promising nov...

COVID-19 Is Still Messing Up Our Sleep. Here ’ s How to Sleep Better
The COVID-19 pandemic is still disrupting an essential component of a healthy life: a good night’s sleep. In a survey conducted in July of 2,000 adults, released Sept. 13 by the Harris Poll on behalf of The Ohio State University Wexner Medical Center, about 18% of respondents said they get less sleep now than they did before the pandemic, while 19% said they struggle to sleep because they’re worried or stressed (about COVID-19, politics, or other factors). At the university, at least, this has led to a surge in demand for help; in 2021, Ohio State’s medical center received about 29% more referrals for ins...

COVID-19 Can Increase Risk of Psychiatric Disorders for Up to Two Years
The increased risk of depression and anxiety that patients experience after developing COVID-19 typically subsides within two months, according to astudy published yesterday inThe Lancet Psychiatry. However, patients may have an elevated risk for developing other psychiatric and neurological conditions, such as psychosis, brain fog, and seizures, for up to two years after their infections.“The results have important implications for patients and health services as it suggests new cases of neurological conditions linked to COVID-19 infection are likely to occur for a considerable time after the pandemic has subsided,” s...

Napping Might Be Bad for the Heart, Study Finds
Napping, as well as sleeping too much or too little or having poor sleep patterns, appears to increase the risk for cardiovascular disease in older adults, new research shows. The study, published Tuesday in the Journal of the American Heart Association, adds to a growing body of evidence supporting sleep’s importance to good health. The American Heart Association recently added sleep duration to its checklist of health and lifestyle factors for cardiovascular health, known as Life’s Essential 8. It says adults should average seven to nine hours of sleep a night. “Good sleep behavior is essential to prese...

Traditional Chinese Medicine for Post-stroke Sleep Disorders: The Evidence Mapping of Clinical Studies
ConclusionsPSSDs treated with TCM have been widely assessed in clinical studies. For better evidence translation, clinical trials on specific CHM interventions and high-quality systematic reviews on acupuncture for post-stroke insomnia should be conducted. For a better solution to clinical questions, TCM on SBDs after stroke and the benefits of Chinese mind-body exercises for post-stroke insomnia should be explored in future clinical studies.

AI Empowered Virtual Reality Integrated Systems for Sleep Stage Classification and Quality Enhancement
Insomnia is a common public health problem and an open biomedical research topic. Insomnia results in various health problems, including memory decline, decreases concentration and weakens problem-solving ability. The insufficient sleep also leads to skin ageing, heart disease, high blood pressure, arrhythmia and stroke. While it remains as a global health concern, sleep quality improvement using modern technologies, such as machine learning, classification technologies, virtual reality (VR), becomes an open and hot research problem. These modern technologies offer new curing solutions under certain conditions. In this pap...

A blended eHealth intervention for insomnia following acquired brain injury: a randomised controlled trial
In conclusion, our randomised clinical trial shows that blended CBT is an effective treatment for insomnia, and feasible for people with acquired brain injury, regardless of cognitive and psychiatric complaints. Online treatment has major advantages in terms of availability and cost and may contribute to the successful implementation of insomnia treatment for people with acquired brain injuries.PMID:35641443 | DOI:10.1111/jsr.13629

A Systematic Review of the Impact of Select Mindfulness Interventions on Psychological Outcomes among Older Adults with Chronic Health Conditions
CONCLUSIONS: Early evidence for MIs impact on psychological outcomes is promising, though more work involving randomized control trials is needed. Current studies generally lack methodological rigor and have a high risk of bias. Given the high rates of chronic pain in older adults and the emerging evidence for MIs, future work in this area is of particular value.CLINICAL IMPLICATIONS: Practitioners should be guardedly optimistic about the value of MIs and ACT for older adults with chronic health conditions.PMID:35585039 | DOI:10.1080/07317115.2022.2076636
