[SLEEP MONITORING FOR PREDICTION OF MAJOR DEPRESSION RECURRENCE IN PATIENTS AT HIGH RISK - A PROSPECTIVE STUDY].

Objective: To examine the feasibility of sleep monitoring using an innovative wearable technology, as a predictive tool for MDE (major depressive episode) recurrence in high risk patients.

Sleep Monitoring Using WatchPAT Device to Predict Recurrence of Major Depression in Patients at High Risk for Major Depression Disorder Recurrence: A Case Report.

Major depressive disorders are strongly correlated with alterations in sleep pattern and architecture, including changes in the Rapid Eye Movement (REM) phase. However, it is still unknown whether sleep alterations precede other depression-related symptoms, particularly in patients with recurrent depressive episodes at relapse risk. We initiated a study aimed at examining the value of ambulatory sleep monitoring using a WatchPAT device, in predicting recurrence of Major depression.

Long-term outcome of neonates with suspected Hirschsprung's disease, but normal rectal biopsy.

Background And Objectives: Hirschsprung's disease (HD) must always be considered in very early-onset constipation. Although HD has a well-described clinical course, little is known about those neonates in whom HD was excluded. We aimed to describe the long-term clinical outcomes of neonates with a clinical suspicion of HD that was excluded by rectal suction biopsy.
