Narrative review of sleep and stroke.
Authors: Pérez-Carbonell L, Bashir S Abstract Sleep disorders, such as sleep-disordered breathing (SDB), insomnia or restless legs syndrome (RLS), are common in the general population and after stroke. In some cases, sleep disturbances are pre-existing, but can also appear de novo as a direct consequence of brain damage or due to stroke-related complications. Furthermore, some sleep conditions may act as a risk factor of stroke. This review explores the available evidence of the two-way relationship between sleep and stroke. Cardiovascular physiological changes during sleep are described, as well as the evidence o...

A novel multicomponent grading system for obstructive sleep apnoea severity applied in the ESADA cohort
Conclusion: Our data show that the four suggested OSA phenotypes of the "Baveno" classification reflect clinical phenotypes in a large, representative European patient cohort. The impact of T90, known to be correlated with poor cognitive, cardiovascular and metabolic outcomes, may indicate the prognostic relevance of the grading system.* Randerath et al.

A Critical Overview of Systematic Reviews and Meta-Analyses on Acupuncture for Poststroke Insomnia.
Conclusions: All included reviews indicated that acupuncture was more effective than the control group for the treatment of PSI, but the credibility of the results is limited owing to the generally low methodological and evidence quality of the included SRs/MAs. More high-quality evidence is needed to determine whether acupuncture is more effective than other treatments. PMID: 33101437 [PubMed]

Neurologic Symptoms Are Very Common Among U.S. Coronavirus Patients, Study Says
As the COVID-19 pandemic stretches on, so too does the disease’s list of known symptoms. At first, cough, fever and shortness of breath were thought to be its primary symptoms. Nine months in, that list now includes organ damage, skin conditions, gastrointestinal problems and issues of the brain and nervous system. A paper published Oct. 5 in the Annals of Clinical and Translational Neurology is thought to be the first to examine the prevalence of neurologic symptoms in U.S. COVID-19 patients. Out of 509 people admitted to Chicago hospitals for coronavirus care this spring, 82% had a neurologic symptom at some point,...

What have antidepressants been tested for? A systematic review.
CONCLUSIONS: Trials of antidepressants may be driven mainly by commercial interests, focusing on prevalent diseases and everyday problems.

More than a quarter century of the most prescribed sleeping pill: Systematic review of zolpidem use by older adults.
Abstract Zolpidem is widely used to treat insomnia of older adults despite that few randomized controlled studies were conducted in this group. We systematically reviewed the relevant literature on efficacy/effectiveness and safety of zolpidem use by elderly individuals in relevant databases completed with a manual search of key journals. Studies were required to include individuals aged ≥60 years under intervention with zolpidem compared to placebo or other hypnosedatives. Outcomes were either objectively- or subjectively-assessed improvements in specific sleep parameters and safety for clinical use. The 31 r...
