Validation of self-applied unattended polysomnography using Somte V2 PSG (Somte) for diagnosis of obstructive sleep apnoea (OSA) in pregnant women in early to mid-gestation
CONCLUSION: Self-applied, unattended Somte may provide an acceptable substitute to attended PSG in the identification of OSA in pregnant women in early to mid-gestation in this small sample but may fail to detect cases of OSA, particularly when using RDI as the diagnostic marker.PMID:38662312 | DOI:10.1007/s11325-024-03025-0 (Source: Sleep and Breathing)

Impacts of conservative treatment on the clinical manifestations of obstructive sleep apnea-systematic review and meta-analysis
CONCLUSION: The most commonly used treatments of choice for OSA are invasive, including the use of CPAP, oral appliances, and surgeries, being the most utilized options. This study demonstrated that non-invasive conservative treatments, such as sleep hygiene, yield results as effective as invasive treatments. Further studies are needed to confirm this result and to predict whether invasive treatment can be used as the primary treatment or only as a supplement.PMID:38642201 | DOI:10.1007/s11325-024-03034-z (Source: Sleep and Breathing)

Sleep quality and screen time among university professors: impact of emergency remote teaching amidst COVID-19 crisis
ConclusionThis study among university professors underscores the impact of screen time on sleep quality during the COVID-19 pandemic. Participants faced poor sleep, largely influenced by heightened screen time due to ERT. Considering these findings, this study emphasizes the importance of curbing daytime screen exposure and abstaining from screens in the evening, especially for university professors reliant on technology for their professional responsibilities.
