Stroke causes a transient imbalance of interhemispheric information flow in EEG during Non-REM sleep
Stroke is one of the leading causes of disabilities and represents a major medical and socio-economical burden (Adamson et al., 2004; Global Burden of Disease Study Collaborators, 2015; Ovbiagele et al., 2013). Ischemic strokes account for more than 2/3 of all strokes (Feigin et al., 2009). In the minutes to weeks following the onset of a focal cerebral ischemia, a variety of local but also more distant changes in connectivity occur (Silasi and Murphy, 2014; Xerri et al., 2014). In particular, functional neuroimaging studies have highlighted a “hyperactivity” of the homotopic contralesional region following a unilatera...

ID 366 – Cerebral venous thrombosis (CVT) in a female patient with severe obstructive sleep apnea (OSAS): Case presentation
Obstructive sleep apnea syndrome is reported to be a risk factor for arterial ischemic stroke, however, relationship between OSAS and cerebral venous thrombosis (CVT) remains uncertain.

ID 290 – Differences in sleep microstate curves among healthy sleepers and patients after stroke
Sleep deprivation, whether from disorder or lifestyle, poses a significant risk in daytime performance. Ischemic stroke resulting in cerebral lesions is a well-known acute disorder that leaves affected patients strongly vulnerable to sleep disturbances that often lead to the above-mentioned impairments. The aim of this study is to identify objective sleep patterns being potential sources of disturbed sleep in stroke patients.
