Objective: The current systematic review (PROSPERO ID: CRD42020220142) aims to characterize sleep health in pediatric inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) and evaluate disease-related and psychosocial prognostic factors associated with sleep disturbances in pediatric IBD.
Methods: A search of PubMed, PsycINFO, CINAHL, Web of Science, and Cochrane databases was performed. Included studies were written in English, presented original peer-reviewed research, included participants with a mean age of 8-18 years, and reported on at least one quantitative sleep outcome for children with IBD or factors impacting sleep for these children. Studies that did not report on a sleep outcome or factors influencing sleep, or only examined fatigue were excluded. Study quality was evaluated using validated quality assessment tools. The data from the included studies were extracted and synthesized across sleep health domains.
Results: Database searches yielded 122 records (total participants = 3,905). After full-text and reference/citation searches, 28 articles were included in the review. Methods used to evaluate sleep widely varied across studies and a majority of the studies were cross-sectional. Results suggest that children with IBD may not experience more frequent sleep disturbance than healthy children. Greater sleep disturbance in pediatric IBD was found to be associated with poorer psychosocial functioning and greater active disease/severe symptoms.
Conclusions: The findings from this review highlight the complex associations between sleep disturbances, inflammation, disease severity, and psychosocial functioning in children with IBD. Additional research with greater methodological rigor (e.g., use of validated sleep measures, longitudinal design, reporting of effect sizes) is warranted to further elucidate these relationships.
Summary: The current systematic review examines the existing evidence and methods of measurement of sleep disturbances in pediatric inflammatory bowel disease. We describe and evaluate factors associated with sleep disturbance in this population. The quality of evidence, strengths and weaknesses of the literature, and future directions are described.

Background: Non-motor symptoms, including depression, anxiety, sleep disturbances, pain and cognitive dysfunction, are a much more important predictor of quality of life than the severity of dystonia.
Objectives: To assess the effect of Botulinum toxin on non-motor symptoms and quality of life in patients with adult-onset idiopathic focal dystonia.
Methods: Patients aged > 18 years diagnosed with idiopathic focal dystonia were recruited in this longitudinal cohort study.

Unlabelled: It is known that in most cases of congenital central hypoventilation syndrome (CCHS), apnoeas and hypoventilation occur at birth. Nevertheless, a detailed description of initial symptoms, including pregnancy events and diagnostic tests performed, is warranted in infants with neonatal onset of CCHS, that is, in the first month of life. The European Central Hypoventilation Syndrome Consortium created an online patient registry from which 97 infants (44 females) with CCHS of neonatal onset and PHOX2B mutation from 10 countries were selected.

Comparison of NoSAS score with STOP-Bang and Berlin scores in predicting difficult airway.
BMC Anesthesiol
January 2025
Department of Anesthesiology and Reanimation, Faculty of Medicine, Suleyman Demirel University, Operating Room, Floor:1, Cunur, Isparta, 32260, Turkey.
Background: This study aimed to compare the effectiveness of the NoSAS, STOP-Bang, and Berlin scoring systems, which are utilized to predict obstructive sleep apnea syndrome (OSAS), in forecasting difficult airway management. Additionally, the study sought to determine which of these scoring systems is the most practical and effective for this purpose.
Methods: Following the ethics committee approval, preoperative NoSAS, STOP-Bang, and Berlin scores were calculated for 420 patients aged 18 years and older who were scheduled for tracheal intubation.

Introduction: Sleep plays a crucial role in health, well-being, and academic performance. Despite the recognized importance of good sleep for students, there is a need for a deeper understanding of the sleep problems faced by university students to inform effective campus support services and interventions. This study aimed to evaluate sleep quality among university students by assessing differences in key sleep parameters between sex and age groups.
