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...

Topographic sleep EEG changes in the acute and chronic stage of hemispheric stroke.
Abstract After stroke, the injured brain undergoes extensive reorganization and reconnection. Sleep may play a role in synaptic plasticity underlying stroke recovery. To test this hypothesis, we investigated topographic sleep electroencephalographic characteristics, as a measure of brain reorganization, in the acute and chronic stages after hemispheric stroke. We studied eight patients with unilateral stroke in the supply territory of the middle cerebral artery and eight matched controls. All subjects underwent a detailed clinical examination including assessment of stroke severity, sleep habits and disturbances, ...

Lack of Worsening of Sleep-Disordered Breathing After Recurrent Stroke in the BASIC Project
Conclusions:In this within-subject, longitudinal study, neither severity nor prevalence of SDB worsened after recurrent stroke.Citation:Brown DL, Li C, Sánchez BN, Dunietz GL, Chervin RD, Case E, Garcia NM, Lisabeth LD. Lack of worsening of sleep-disordered breathing after recurrent stroke in the BASIC project.J Clin Sleep Med. 2018;14(5):835–839.

Acute stroke and TIA patients have specific polygraphic features of obstructive sleep apnea.
CONCLUSION: Stroke patients had different characteristics of respiratory events, i.e., their polygraphic phenotype of OSA differs compared to matched reference patients. The observed differences in polygraphic features might indicate that stroke and TIA patients suffer from OSA phenotype recently associated with increased cardiovascular mortality. Therefore, optimal diagnostics and treatment require routine OSA screening in patients with acute cerebrovascular disease, even without previous suspicion of OSA.

The association between sleep duration, napping, and stroke stratified by self-health status among Chinese people over 65  years old from the China health and retirement longitudinal study.
CONCLUSIONS: Both short and long sleep duration were significantly associated with stroke among individuals who reported poor health. Stroke prevention should be focused on elderly individuals who believe that they have health problems. PMID: 33067754 [PubMed - as supplied by publisher]

Obstructive Sleep Apnea is Related to Impaired Cognitive and Functional Status after Stroke
Conclusions:Obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) is associated with a lower cognitive and functional status in patients admitted for stroke rehabilitation. This underlines the importance of OSA as a probable prognostic factor, and calls for well-designed randomized controlled trials to study its treatability.Citation:Aaronson JA, van Bennekom CA, Hofman WF, van Bezeij T, van den Aardweg JG, Groet E, Kylstra WA, Schmand B. Obstructive sleep apnea is related to impaired cognitive and functional status after stroke. SLEEP 2015;38(9):1431–1437.

Sleep Disordered Breathing and Risk of Stroke in Older Community-Dwelling Men
Conclusions:Older men with severe nocturnal hypoxemia are at significantly increased risk of incident stroke. Measures of overnight oxygen saturation may better identify older men at risk for stroke than measures of apnea frequency.Citation:Stone KL, Blackwell TL, Ancoli-Israel S, Barrett-Connor E, Bauer DC, Cauley JA, Ensrud KE, Hoffman AR, Mehra R, Stefanick ML, Varosy PD, Yaffe K, Redline S; Osteoporotic Fractures in Men Study Research Group.

Cognitive impairment and sleep disturbances after minor ischemic stroke.
CONCLUSIONS: The prevalence of PSCI is high after minor ischemic stroke. In particular, attention and working memory and executive function are most commonly impaired. Although the risk factors for PSCI are numerous, shorter total sleep time and degree of hypoxia at night warrant further attention. PMID: 30145676 [PubMed - as supplied by publisher]

Is there an association among sleep duration, nap, and stroke? Findings from the China Health and Retirement Longitudinal Study.
CONCLUSION: In this elderly Chinese population, short total sleep duration per 24 h, not merely daytime napping or nighttime sleep, was significantly associated with an increased risk of stroke. Preventive measures for stroke may require a focus on elderly, sedentary individuals who report other health problems. PMID: 32562171 [PubMed - as supplied by publisher]

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...
