: The aim of this study was to determine the effect of sleep duration on all-cause mortality among older adults with frailty. : The prospective cohort study included 5705 community participants aged 60 or above in the National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey (NHANES). Health indicators were selected in the NHANES to obtain the frailty index and sleep duration. The risk of all-cause mortality was estimated by a Cox proportional hazard model. : During the follow-up, long sleep duration was associated with higher all-cause mortality (adjusted HR = 1.28, 95% CI 1.03-1.59). The hazard of all-cause mortality was the lowest from the beginning of sleep until sleep duration reached 5.8 hours among older adults with frailty. : Long sleep duration was associated with higher all-cause mortality among older adults with frailty. There was a U-shaped relationship between sleep duration and all-cause mortality.

: Migraine is a complex neurological disorder often associated with autonomic nervous system (ANS) dysfunction. This study aimed to evaluate the effects of fascia exercises on migraine symptoms and explore their potential as a novel conservative treatment approach. : A prospective, randomized controlled trial was conducted with 30 migraine patients who were randomly assigned to a treatment group (fascia exercises) or a control group (conventional physiotherapy).

Sleep disruption has emerged as a significant public health concern with profound implications for metabolic health. This review synthesizes current evidence demonstrating the intricate relationships between sleep disturbances and cardiometabolic dysfunction. Epidemiological studies have consistently demonstrated that insufficient sleep duration (<7 h) and poor sleep quality are associated with increased risks of obesity, type 2 diabetes, and cardiovascular disease.

: Migraine is a common neurological condition that significantly impacts quality of life, especially in women during their reproductive years. Pregnancy poses unique challenges for migraine management due to hormonal changes and the limited use of pharmacological treatments. Non-pharmacological interventions, such as physiotherapy, exercise, and relaxation techniques, offer promising alternatives for managing migraines during this critical period.

Background: Sleep plays a crucial role in cognitive performance and cognitive changes in aging. In the current study, we investigated the role of sleep duration genetics in cognitive changes over time and the moderating effect of age.
Methods: Participants were drawn from the Reference Abilities Neural Network and the Cognitive Reserve studies of Columbia University.

Background/objectives: Determine the appropriate duration for multichannel sleep studies in former preterm infants with cardio-respiratory events beyond term equivalent age.
Hypothesis: A sleep study of 10 h will provide equivalent information compared to a 20-h study to detect significant cardio-respiratory abnormalities in this population.
Methods: Single-center retrospective study of 50 infants with 20-h sleep study.
