Sleep duration and history of stroke among adults from the USA.
Abstract Although short sleep duration is related to chronic conditions, such as hypertension, diabetes and obesity, the association with stroke is less well known. Using 2006-2011 National Health Interview Surveys, we assessed the association between self-reported duration of sleep and prevalence of stroke stratifying by age and sex. Of the 154 599 participants aged 18 years or older, 29.2%, 61.8% and 9.0% reported they sleep ≤6, 7-8 and ≥9 h per day, respectively. Corresponding age-standardized prevalence of stroke were 2.78%, 1.99% and 5.21% (P < 0.001). Logistic regression models showed a higher pr...

Obstructive sleep apnea during the chronic stroke recovery period: Comparison between primary haemorrhagic and ischaemic events
J Sleep Res. 2021 Aug 21:e13460. doi: 10.1111/jsr.13460. Online ahead of print.ABSTRACTThe present study retrospectively determined the incidence of obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) after a primary haemorrhagic event compared to an ischaemic stroke during the post-acute recovery period ( x ¯ >3 months). Consideration of medications taken during the sleep evaluation provided additional information on the association between OSA and pathophysiological conditions that may increase the risk of a repeated cardiovascular event. The medical records from 103 patients that underwent a type I fully attended overnight polysomnograph...

Nocturnal Hypoxemia Is Associated with White Matter Hyperintensities in Patients with a Minor Stroke or Transient Ischemic Attack
Conclusions:We conclude that nocturnal hypoxemia, predominantly related to OSA, is independently associated with WMH in patients who present with minor ischemic stroke and TIA and may contribute to its pathogenesis.Citation:Patel SK, Hanly PJ, Smith EE, Chan W, Coutts SB. Nocturnal hypoxemia is associated with white matter hyperintensities in patients with a minor stroke or transient ischemic attack. J Clin Sleep Med 2015;11(12):1417–1424.

The association between atrial fibrillation and stroke in patients with obstructive sleep apnea: A population-based case-control study
Abstract: Background: Obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) has been shown to be an independent risk factor for ischemic stroke and may increase the risk of atrial fibrillation (AF) by up to fourfold. Given these relationships, it is possible that OSA may provide a link between stroke and AF. A case-control study was conducted to examine the association between AF and stroke in patients with OSA.Methods: Olmsted County, MN, USA, residents with a new diagnosis of OSA based on polysomnography (PSG) between 2005 and 2010 (N=2980) who suffered a first-time ischemic stroke during the same period were identified as cases. Controls with ...

Association between the high risk for obstructive sleep apnea and intracranial carotid artery calcification in patients with acute ischemic stroke.
CONCLUSIONS: This study showed that the presence of calcium in symptomatic intracranial ICA was related to high risk for OSA in patients with acute ischemic stroke. PMID: 32562170 [PubMed - as supplied by publisher]

Prevalence of obstructive sleep apnea in patients with acute stroke
Introduction: Stroke or Cerebrovascular Disease is a serious neurological disorder and is the second leading cause of death globally. Apart from the well-known modifiable risk factors for stroke like diabetes, hypertension and ischemic heart disease, Obstructive Sleep apnea (OSA) is emerging as an independent and eminently modifiable risk factor. The reported prevalence rate of OSA in stroke patients in various studies ranges from 30-80%. This prospective study was undertaken over a period of 20 months to determine the prevalence of OSA in newly diagnosed stroke patients.

Daytime sleepiness and risk of coronary heart disease and stroke: results from the Nurses’ Health Study II
Conclusions: Daytime sleepiness was not an independent risk factor for CVD in this cohort of women, but rather, was associated with sleep characteristics and metabolic abnormalities that are risk factors for CVD.

Sleep Duration and Chronic Diseases among US Adults Age 45 Years and Older: Evidence From the 2010 Behavioral Risk Factor Surveillance System
Conclusions:Sleep duration had U-shaped relationships with leading chronic diseases. Further prospective studies are needed to determine how mental health and maintenance of a normal weight may interact with sleep duration to prevent chronic diseases.Citation:Liu Y; Wheaton AG; Chapman DP; Croft JB. Sleep duration and chronic diseases among US adults age 45 years and older: evidence from the 2010 Behavioral Risk Factor Surveillance System. SLEEP 2013;36(10):1421-1427.

Sleep Apnea and the Effects on Your Health
Sleep is not always a benign state. Snoring may not be harmless. In fact, a related condition that affects breathing during sleep may have important consequences. This disorder, sleep apnea, can have significant effects on your overall health. There are certain symptoms and signs associated with obstructive sleep apnea that can affect day-to-day life. Excessive daytime sleepiness, mood complaints like anxiety or depression, or difficulty with thinking may undermine concentration or memory. However, untreated sleep apnea can have other unwanted side effects. Sleep apnea may increase blood pressure, lead to insulin resista...

Association of incident restless legs syndrome with outcomes in a large cohort of US veterans.
Abstract Restless legs syndrome is a common sleep disorder, but there is a paucity of large cohort studies examining the association of restless legs syndrome with clinical outcomes, including all-cause mortality, incident coronary heart disease, stroke and chronic kidney disease. From a nationally representative prospective cohort of over 3 million US veterans [93% male, median follow-up time of 8.1 years (interquartile range: 7.0-8.5 years)] with baseline estimated glomerular filtration rate ≥60 mL min(-1)  1.73 m(-2) , a propensity-matched cohort of 7392 patients was created, and the association betwee...
