Study of association of severity of sleep disordered breathing and functional outcome in stroke patients
Sleep disordered breathing (SDB) is a prevalent yet underrecognized condition that may have major adverse consequences for those affected by it. We performed a prospective observational study to seek a correlation between the severity of SDB and the severity of stroke and its functional outcome.

A potential impact of Helicobacter pylori infection on both obstructive sleep apnea and atrial fibrillation-related stroke
Poli et al [1] concluded that atrial fibrillation (AF) was a major source of stroke in patients with high prevalence of obstructive sleep apnea (OSA).

Restless Legs Syndrome after High Risk TIA and Minor Stroke: Association with Reduced Quality of Life
Restless Legs Syndrome (RLS) is a movement disorder associated with poor quality of life and depressive symptoms in the general population. Emerging evidence suggests that RLS is closely linked with cerebrovascular disease. We assessed the impact of RLS on quality of life after stroke and transient ischemic attack (TIA).

Prevalence of sleep apnea at the acute phase of ischemic stroke with or without thrombolysis
The aim of the study was to compare the prevalence, type, and severity of sleep apnea during the acute phase of ischemic stroke among patients either receiving or not receiving thrombolysis.

Lipid profile in acute ischemic stroke: association with sleep-disordered breathing
Introduction: Dyslipidemia and sleep-disordered breathing (SDB) are the risk factors for cerebrovascular diseases. Despite increasing evidence that chronic intermittent hypoxia, a key mechanism underlying SDB, is independently associated with dyslipidemia, the clinical evidence linking SDB with dyslipidemia is limited. The aim of this study was to explore the associat ion of lipoprotein levels with SDB measures in patients with acute ischemic stroke.

Evolution of macrosleep in the acute and subacute phase after stroke
Introduction: A restorative sleep is essential for physical and psychological health. Even though literature is highly heterogeneous, stroke patients mostly tend to have a lower sleep efficiency, reduced N2, N3 and REM sleep, and generally a more fragmented sleep, especially in the acute phase. Crucially, there might be an association between an impaired sleep architecture and impaired cognitive outcome. As such, a poor sleep efficiency, a low amount of N2 and N3 and enhanced wakefulness after sleep onset have been linked to an acute impaired outcome.

Relationship between sleep disordered breathing and coronary artery calcium in ischemic stroke patients
Introduction: Obstructive Sleep Apnea (OSA) is associated with increased risk of stroke and cardiovascular mortality. In ischemic patients, the major cause of death during follow-up is coronary artery disease. Coronary calcium score (CAC) is a score measured from quantification of calcified plaques with chest computed tomography. CAC has been shown to be associated with future risk of myocardial infarction and cardiovascular mortality. Several studies showed the positive correlation between sleep apnea and CAC in normal population, which may be contributed by progressive worsening of atherosclerosis.

Joint effect of less than one hour of daytime napping and seven to eight hours of night sleep on the risk of stroke
The joint effect of daytime naps and night sleep on the risk of stroke has not been clarified. Our research aimed to verify this relationship based on data from a large sample-sized cross-sectional study and a cohort study.
