Multidimensional analysis of sedentary behaviour and participation in Spanish stroke survivors (Part&Sed-Stroke): a protocol for a longitudinal multicentre study
Introduction Stroke survivors usually experience long-lasting functional, emotional and social consequences that might contribute to sedentary behaviour and participation restrictions, which are important targets to address during rehabilitation. However, the trajectory and inter-relationship between these factors are unknown. Methods and analysis Part&Sed is a research project based on an observational study design with 6 and 12 months of follow-ups in stroke survivors. In addition, a qualitative analysis of the impact of the stroke on the stroke survivor, validation of the Satisfaction with Daily Occupation-Occupati...

Sleep Apnea Treatment After Stroke (SATS) Trial: Is It Feasible?
Sleep apnea affects more than half of patients with acute ischemic stroke and is associated with poor stroke outcome. This pilot study assessed the feasibility of a randomized, sham-controlled continuous positive airway pressure (CPAP) trial in subjects with acute ischemic stroke. Subjects identified with sleep apnea based on an apnea-hypopnea index ≥5 on overnight polysomnography or portable respiratory monitoring within 7 days of onset of stroke symptoms were randomized to receive active or sham CPAP for a 3-month period. Objective usage was ascertained by compliance data cards. Subjects, treating physicians, and outco...

Characteristics of Wake-up Stroke
Conclusions: WUS is more likely to result from small-vessel disease mechanism. Poorer cholesterol profile and frequent snoring may contribute to WUS.

Wake-up stroke is not associated with sleep-disordered breathing in women
Conclusions In this population-based study, WUS represented about 30% of all generally mild severity ischemic strokes in women and was not associated with SDB.

The relationship between sleep and physical activity in an in-patient rehabilitation stroke setting: a cross-sectional study
CONCLUSIONS: More sleep was related to less sedentary behavior and more time spent on physical activity. Fitbit Flex was only valid for measuring light physical activity.PMID:34842058 | DOI:10.1080/10749357.2021.2006982

Hypoglossal nerve dysfunction and sleep-disordered breathing after stroke
Conclusions: Acute ischemic stroke patients have a high prevalence of hypoglossal nerve dysfunction. Further studies are needed to explore whether hypoglossal nerve dysfunction may be a cause or consequence of SDB in stroke patients and whether this association can provide further insight into the pathophysiology of SDB in this population.

Cross-Sectional Survey of Workload and Burnout Among Japanese Physicians Working in Stroke Care: The Nationwide Survey of Acute Stroke Care Capacity for Proper Designation of Comprehensive Stroke Center in Japan (J-ASPECT) Study Original Articles
Conclusions— The primary risk factors for burnout are heavy workload, short sleep duration, relatively little experience, and low mental quality of life. Prospective research is required to confirm these findings and develop programs for preventing burnout.

More Than 8 Hours Of Sleep Linked To Increased Stroke Risk
BOSTON (CBS) – Could getting more than eight hours of sleep a night be a bad thing? Many of us are lucky to get that much, but if we do, Dr. Mallika Marshall says it might be a warning sign for stroke. The National Sleep Foundation says adults between the ages of 18 and 64 should get seven to nine hours of sleep a night, but a new study from the University of Cambridge looked at more than 9,000 middle-aged and older adults and found that those who slept for more than eight hours a night were 46% more likely to have a stroke over the nine and a half years than people who slept six to eight hours a night. It may be tha...

Prevalence and Predictors of Sleep Apnea Risk among Ghanaian Stroke Survivors
Sleep apnea (SA) has emerged as a potent risk factor for stroke recurrence and mortality. The burden of SA among stroke survivors in sub-Saharan Africa where stroke incidence and mortality are escalating is unknown. We sought to assess the prevalence of SA risk and its clinical correlates and predictors among Ghanaian stroke survivors.

Obstructive Sleep Apnea before Ischemic Stroke: Clinical Relevance to Infarction Volume and Neurological Recovery
Background: Obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) is a probable risk factor with speculative roles in the induction or aggravation of acute ischemic stroke (AIS). Methods: The association between OSA and AIS severity was retrospectively analyzed using clinical data of first-onset AIS patients, admitted to our hospital between January 2013 and September 2016. Eligible patients were categorized based on the presence of OSA prior to stroke. Stroke severity and functional outcomes were evaluated using the National Institute of Health Stroke Severity Scale (NIHSS) and the modified Rankin scale (mRS), respectively.

Examining the Inter-relations of Depression, Physical Function, and Cognition with Subjective Sleep Parameters among Stroke Survivors: A Cross-sectional Analysis
Goal: Stroke survivors commonly experience depression as well as deficits in physical and cognition function. Emerging evidence also suggests sleep quality is compromised poststroke. Our primary objective was to examine the association of subjective sleep parameters (ie, total PSQI score) with depression, health related quality of life, physical function, and cognition among stroke survivors. Materials and Methods: Cross-sectional analysis of 72 older adults with chronic stroke ( ≥6 months postischemic stroke) enrolled in a randomized controlled trial of exercise or cognitive enrichment.

Re: Meteorological Factors and Seasonal Stroke Rates
The present study1 further adds to our understating regarding complex role of possible seasonal variations (eg temperature) and their role as risk factors in causation of diseases (eg stroke) in humans. Authors conclude that hot in summer months the risk of ischemic stroke was higher than hemorrhagic stroke.1 Many studies in the past have generated variable evidence regarding the role of weather temperature as a risk factor for stroke (increased risk to lower risk on no risk).1-6 Increasing temperatures can lead to heat related stress thus interfering with sleep and with daily activities of life and resulting negative in health outcomes.
