Article Synopsis
- - This study uses the REM Sleep Behavior Disorder Questionnaire-Hong Kong (RBDQ-HK) to explore symptoms, severity, and relationships of REM sleep behavior disorder (RBD), particularly focusing on links to depression and sleep quality.
- - Data was collected from 455 patients with isolated RBD, revealing three symptom dimensions: dream, movement, and SRI/violence, with central symptoms being 'shouting in sleep', 'dream-enacting movements', and 'talking during sleep'.
- - The study highlights that depression correlates significantly with RBD symptoms, particularly in movement and dream dimensions, indicating that understanding these relationships is crucial for managing RBD effectively.
Background: Inspired concentrations of desflurane ≥ 1 minimum alveolar anesthetic concentration (MAC) have been related to sympathetic stimulation such as hypertension and tachycardia. The current study examined whether labetalol, an α(1) and β-adrenergic antagonist would blunt these hemodynamic responses.
Methods: Fifty-four ASA physical status I patients, aged 20-60 years, were enrolled in this study.
