Prevalence and Determinants of Sleep Apnea in Patients with Stroke: A Meta-Analysis
Recent meta-analyses have noted that ∼70% of transient ischemic attack (TIA)/stroke patients have sleep apnea. However, the heterogeneity between studies was high and did not appear to be accounted by the phase of stroke. We conducted an updated meta-analysis and aimed to determine whether the prevalence of sleep apnea amongst stroke patients differs by the subtype, etiology, severity and location of stroke and hence could account for some of the unexplained heterogeneity observed in previous studies.

Poststroke fatigue: the patient perspective.
Conclusion: A better understanding of the varied dimensions or themes elaborated for poststroke fatigue, and their interrelationships, should help in mitigating its impact. The analysis cautions against giving any simplistic and unitary advice to patients about dealing with fatigue. PMID: 24273294 [PubMed - in process]

Factors Associated with Poststroke Fatigue: A Systematic Review.
Authors: Ponchel A, Bombois S, Bordet R, Hénon H Abstract Background. Poststroke fatigue (PSF) is a frequent, disabling symptom that lacks a consensual definition and a standardized evaluation method. The (multiple) causes of PSF have not been formally characterized. Objective. To identify factors associated with PSF. Method. A systematic review of articles referenced in MEDLINE. Only original studies having measured PSF and potentially associated factors were included. Data was extracted from articles using predefined data fields. Results. Although PSF tends to be more frequent in female patients and older patien...

Hypoxia after stroke: a review of experimental and clinical evidence
ConclusionWhilst evidence for the use of supplemental oxygen therapy is currently lacking, it is vital to rapidly identify and treat all causes of hypoxia in the acute stroke patient, as a failure to will lead to poorer clinical outcomes. The full results of a large randomised trial looking at the use of supplemental oxygen therapy are currently pending.

Dysphagia and Obstructive Sleep Apnea in Acute, First-Ever, Ischemic Stroke
Obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) and dysphagia are common in acute stroke and are both associated with increased risk of complications and worse prognosis. The aims of the present study were (1) to evaluate the prevalence of OSA and dysphagia in patients with acute, first-ever, ischemic stroke; (2) to investigate their clinical correlates; and (3) to verify if these conditions are associated in acute ischemic stroke.

Autonomic Nervous System Modifications During Wakefulness and Sleep in a Cohort of Patients with Acute Ischemic Stroke
Goal: The aims of our study were to investigate autonomic modifications in wakefulness and sleep in a cohort of patients with acute ischemic stroke and to evaluate whereas these modifications were dependent by sleep stage and stroke lateralization. Materials and Methods: We prospectively enrolled 42 patients (22 men and 20 women, mean age: 69.8 ± 11.3; range: 32-92 years) with acute ischemic stroke. All participants underwent a full-night polysomnography. As index of autonomic nervous system we used Heart Rate Variability (HRV), analyzed in wakefulness and during different sleep stages.

A Dose-Response Relationship Between Sleep Duration and Stroke According to Nonhealth Status in Central China: A Population-based Epidemiology Survey
Purpose: The aim was to investigate the relationship between sleep duration and stroke according to nonhealth status among adults in Central China. Methods: A total of 18,670 participants were selected by stratified multistage random sampling method in Henan province during 2013-2015. Restricted cubic splines and logistic regression were used to calculate the association between sleep duration and stroke. Results: Sleep duration showing a J-shaped dose-response association with risk of stroke among the Chinese adults in the study.

Poor Sleep Quality I Related to Impaired Functional Status Following Stroke
Introduction: Sleep disorders are more prevalent in patients with previous stroke compared to healthy individuals. The main objective of the present study was to investigate the impact of sleep quality on the functional status of patients with a history of stroke, upon admission to inpatient rehabilitation. Methods: Fifty patients (mean age: 69 ± 11 years) with previous stroke were consecutively included in this single center cross-sectional observational study upon admission to inpatient rehabilitation.

Evaluation of the Effectiveness of Treatment with Botulinum Toxin on Sleep Quality in Stroke-Related Spasticity
Stroke is one of the most common causes of mortality and neurological disability worldwide.1 Spasticity is one of the most common findings of hemiplegia after stroke and the rate of spasticity after stroke is 40%.2 Spasticity is defined as sensory-motor control disorder, arising from intermittent or continuous involuntary activation of muscles resulting from upper motor neuron lesion.3 Although spasticity has benefits such as contributing to standing and walking, preventing osteoporosis, deep vein thrombosis and contributing to blood circulation, it is a complex disorder that causes serious disability in daily life activit...

Effects of Comprehensive Swallowing Intervention on Obstructive Sleep Apnea and Dysphagia After Stroke: A Randomized Controlled Trial
Sleep-disordered breathing (SDB) is a global disorder and obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) is its most common form.1 The well-known complications of untreated OSA are increased risks of stroke, and 57% of stroke patients with OSA often experience fatigue and sleepiness during the day, which may influence cognitive function, social relationship, and quality of life.2,3 In addition, stroke patients with OSA had an increased risk of death.4,5 Therefore, it is important to identify therapies for poststroke OSA.

Feeding tube placement in stroke patients: Urgent need for health services and outcomes research
Up to 70% of acute stroke patients demonstrate dysphagia. Approximately half of these patients recover sufficient swallowing ability to meet their caloric needs, while the other half will have long-term swallowing dysfunction.1,2 Surgical feeding tubes can provide nutritional support in patients with severe dysphagia, but the decision of if and when to place a feeding tube poses a substantial challenge because of an inability to predict long-term recovery accurately. In this issue of Neurology®, George et al.3 examined feeding tube placement in the United States in adults with acute ischemic stroke. The authors used th...

Ischemic Stroke Subtype and Presence of Sleep-Disordered Breathing: The BASIC Sleep Apnea Study
Little is known about the prevalence of sleep-disordered breathing (SDB) across ischemic stroke subtypes. Given the important implications for SDB screening, we tested the association between SDB and ischemic stroke subtype in a population-based study.
