Sleep slow oscillation (SSO) is a common EEG pattern of spontaneous activity during nonrapid eye movement sleep. A new method for detecting SSOs is presented and compared to previous canonical methods. The main result of this research is that for the first time an extensive SSO analysis is applied to clinical EEG montages, based on low-density EEG recordings. The proposed method gives positive indications about its effectiveness also for altered sleep, extending the SSO analysis to extreme cases, and thus, opening a new front for investigating pathophysiological correlates of sleep disorders.

A systematic review of the comparative effects of sound and music interventions for intensive care unit patients' outcomes.

Background: Despite syntheses of evidence showing efficacy of music intervention for improving psychological and physiological outcomes in critically ill patients, interventions that include nonmusic sounds have not been addressed in reviews of evidence. It is unclear if nonmusic sounds in the intensive care unit (ICU) can confer benefits similar to those of music.
Objective: The aim of this study was to summarise and contrast available evidence on the effect of music and nonmusic sound interventions for the physiological and psychological outcomes of ICU patients based on the results of randomised controlled trials.
A new perspective on drug-resistant epilepsy in children with focal cortical dysplasia type 1: From challenge to favorable outcome.

Department of Pediatric Neurology, Second Faculty of Medicine, Charles University and Motol University Hospital, full member of the European Reference Network EpiCARE, Prague, Czech Republic.
Objective: We comprehensively characterized a large pediatric cohort with focal cortical dysplasia (FCD) type 1 to expand the phenotypic spectrum and to identify predictors of postsurgical outcomes.
Methods: We included pediatric patients with histopathological diagnosis of isolated FCD type 1 and at least 1 year of postsurgical follow-up. We systematically reanalyzed clinical, electrophysiological, and radiological features.
The role of home polygraphy sleep studies in the diagnosis of catathrenia.

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.

Non-rapid eye movement (NREM) sleep parasomnias are abnormal motor and/or emotional behaviors originating from "deep" slow-wave sleep and with a multifactorial origin. The relationship between NREM parasomnias and psychopathology has been a topic of ongoing debate, but a comprehensive and systematic perspective has been lacking. This systematic review, conducted according to the preferred reporting items for systematic reviews and meta-analyses (PRISMA-P) guidelines, aims to fill this gap in the literature.

Objective: This systematic review determined whether occlusal appliance use influences the sleep of individuals with sleep bruxism.
Material And Methods: Six databases and the gray literature were searched to identify randomized and non-randomized clinical trials comparing slow wave sleep and sleep quality of sleep bruxers before and after occlusal appliance use. The Risk of Bias was assessed using Cochrane tools and Meta-analyses were performed to compare data.
