Catathrenia is an uncommon sleep disorder. Having been originally classified as a parasomnia it is now considered a sleep related breathing disorder. Polysomnography (PSG) is the gold standard for diagnosing catathrenia which demonstrates a classic pattern of a deep inhalation followed by a protracted exhalation, accompanied by groaning sounds.

Objective: To map the procedures and characterize the results of multidimensional voice assessment of individuals with sleep-related breathing disorders.

Method: This scoping review searched the MEDLINE, LILACS, Scopus, EMBASE, Web of Science, Cochrane Central Register of Controlled Trials, ProQuest, and MedRxiv databases, manually searched citations, grey literature, and consulted with experts. It included studies whose participants had sleep-related breathing disorders and underwent voice assessment.

Article Synopsis
  • The study analyzes catathrenia, a sleep-related breathing disorder, by examining clinical features and polysomnographic data in 47 patients diagnosed with nocturnal groaning to determine its characteristics and relationship with other sleep disorders.
  • Findings show no significant gender difference among participants, with an average age of onset around 18 years, and nocturnal groaning events being more common during specific sleep stages and positions.
  • The results suggest that catathrenia may involve a combination of different sleep disorders due to the presence of sleep bruxism in 30% of cases, indicating a need for further research on its origins and variations.

Article Synopsis
  • Parasomnias and sleep-related movement disorders (SRMD) are sleep disorders that can be triggered by certain medications, and this study aimed to review the literature on this association from January 2020 to June 2023.
  • Over 900 records were examined, identifying 73 drugs linked to common drug-induced parasomnias like nightmares and sleepwalking, as well as SRMDs such as restless legs syndrome and bruxism.
  • The study discusses potential mechanisms behind these disorders related to various neurotransmitters, including the impact of antipsychotics, opioids, and medications affecting serotonin, noradrenergic, and dopamine pathways, highlighting gaps in drug labeling for these conditions.
