JCSM Journal

For #SleepAwarenessWeek, we’re highlighting Dr. Susheel Patil’s new paper in @JCSMjournal on refining the "bible" of sleep medicine diagnostic criteria. Better data = More accurate care. 💤Article at link in bio. #SleepMedicine #MedTwitter #HealthInnovation

Transvenous phrenic nerve stimulation (TPNS) treats central sleep apnea in adults using automated activation based on programmed factors like sleep schedule, activity, and body position. This retrospective analysis evaluates adherence with TPNS therapy. bit.ly/4bjLtKj

Published in @JCSMJournal: Among children and adolescents, the risks for #influenza and #COVID-19 were raised📈 if they had been newly diagnosed with obstructive sleep apnea (#OSA)💤. @IDinChildren vist.ly/4t5vn

Despite different communication modes, primary care providers offer timely OSA testing and diagnosis. However, more work is needed to reduce counseling variation and ensure all patients are prepared for PAP therapy success. bit.ly/4s7gpDd

Obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) disrupts sleep and breathing, and poor adherence to CPAP drives the need for alternatives. This study examines the effects of steam-assisted respiratory muscle training (RMT) on polysomnography outcomes in OSA. bit.ly/3MJ0cVH

This study in the Journal of Clinical Sleep Medicine evaluated the validity of EnsoSleep photoplethysmography (ePPG) software as a medical device for home sleep apnea testing compared with polysomnography. bit.ly/4qOdiiB

ADHD is increasingly recognized as a comorbidity in central disorders of hypersomnolence (narcolepsy types 1 & 2, and idiopathic hypersomnia). This study characterizes ADHD traits in these groups and examines links to daily functioning. rdcu.be/e29Pc

This prospective study explored whether myofunctional therapy (MT), delivered through a telemedicine platform, could lead to measurable changes in the upper airway of patients with obstructive sleep apnea (OSA). bit.ly/4jYbUrI

Adults with episodic migraine had more migraine days & less deep sleep after the spring ST-DST change. This study shows harmful effects of circadian disruption from clock shifts & highlights migraine patients’ vulnerability. bit.ly/4qY9H1M

Evidence of dairy’s association with sleep is limited. This study evaluated the association between dairy product consumption and self-reported and objective sleep outcomes in U.S. adults. bit.ly/49SRr44

This review adds to the scientific literature on idiopathic hypersomnia by highlighting the 24-hour nature of the disorder, challenges in current diagnosis & expert perspectives on improving diagnosis to guide better treatment and improve patient outcomes. bit.ly/4aVHLae

Researchers found that changes in vasoconstriction & HR after obstructive events improved risk stratification for chronic kidney disease progression. Findings may help identify patients with OSA at high risk of developing kidney disease & guide treatment. bit.ly/49h4aMz

Diagnosis of central sleep apnea was greatly affected by hypopnea classification. Excluding hypopneas or presuming all hypopneas are obstructive can greatly underestimate the presence of central sleep apnea. bit.ly/49zSTZ2

The @AASMorg Clinical Practice Guideline on treating central sleep apnea in adults is supported by new evidence from a systematic review analyzing over 6,700 studies. bit.ly/45aTCxx
