We report a case of a 39-year-old male patient who developed propofol-induced fasciculations during the induction of general anesthesia. The patient had a history of moderate obstructive sleep apnea and was intolerant to continuous positive airway pressure therapy. He subsequently underwent the insertion of a hypoglossal nerve stimulator as a viable surgical intervention.

Drug-induced sleep endoscopy (DISE) is performed widely, and several studies have demonstrated its validity as it provides clinical information not available by routine clinical inspection alone. This study aims to evaluate the role of transoral drug-induced sleep endoscopy (DISE) in the evaluation of tongue-palate (TP) interaction and its impact on surgical outcomes. A total of 42 patients with known obstructive sleep apnea syndrome (OSAS) were classified into two groups according to TP interaction (the absence of space between tongue and palate with the visual impression that the tongue is pushing the soft palate) into +ve and -ve TP interaction.

Objective: In this study, we aimed to evaluate the localization and configuration of vibration and obstruction in drug-induced sleep endoscopy(DISE) in obstructive sleep apnea patients and to investigate the optimal sedation depth.
Materials And Methods: The study was conducted prospectively with 42 patients. After achieving sedation with intravenous anesthetic agents, simultaneous monitoring of the patient's bispectrometry (BIS), DISE and sleep testing with a type 2 polysomnography device were performed.

Dopaminergic system gains importance in homeostatic sleep regulation, but the role of different dopamine receptors is not well-defined. 72 h rat electrocorticogram and sleep recordings were made after single application of dopaminergic drugs in clinical use or at least underwent clinical trials. The non-selective agonist apomorphine evoked short pharmacological sleep deprivation with intense wakefulness followed by pronounced sleep rebound.

Introduction: We present a literature review on the clinical conundrums surrounding the differential diagnosis of restless legs syndrome (RLS, Willis-Ekbom disease), as well as conditions that can mimic RLS. An extensive literature search showed that secondary causes of RLS ranged from commonly recognized causes, such as iron deficiency anemia, to less widely noted causes, such as rheumatoid disorders and hypothyroidism. There is a controversial association with Parkinson's disease, essential tremor, and RLS, whereby RLS is proposed as a prodromal feature.
