The association of obstructive sleep apnea and behavioral insomnia in children ages 10 and under.

Study Objectives: Behavioral insomnia of childhood (BIC) and obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) are highly prevalent conditions affecting 10%-20% and 1%-5% of children, respectively. Studies in adults and adolescents have suggested that comorbid insomnia and OSA may have distinct clinical characteristics. The association between the two conditions in the pediatric population has not been thoroughly investigated.

Sleep Quality and Social Jetlag in Young Adults During the Social Distancing Caused by COVID-19.

 This study aimed to evaluate the sleep quality and the Social Jetlag frequency in young adults during social distancing because of COVID-19.  This is a cross-sectional study with 308 students aged ≥18 years and with Internet access. Questionnaires used: Pittsburgh Sleep Quality Index - Brazil (PSQI-BR), Epworth Sleepiness Scale, and Munich Chronotype Questionnaire.

Metabolomic approach for obstructive sleep apnea in adults: a systematic review.

Obstructive Sleep Apnea (OSA) corresponds to episodes of complete or partial upper airway obstruction during sleep. The gold standard for diagnosing OSA is polysomnography; however, metabolomics is an innovative and highly sensitive method that seeks to identify and quantify small molecules in biological systems. Identify the metabolites most frequently associated with obstructive sleep apnea in adults.

Setting references for daily intake of micronutrients: A study on magnesium.

Objectives: The Institute of Medicine stratifies the references for daily nutrient intake into age and sex groups, considering that the basal metabolic rate varies according to these aspects, and in most cases, it extrapolates the values calculated for adults to children, because their body weights are different. In this context, this study aimed to evaluate the recommendation for magnesium in children according to energy expenditure.

Methods: This was an observational study using the database of the Social Changes, Asthma and Allergy in Latin America (SCAALA) cohort, which randomly collected information from 1445 children ages 4 to 11 y.

Comorbid insomnia and sleep apnea in children: a preliminary explorative study.

Insomnia and sleep-disordered breathing (SDB) are prevalent sleep disorders. These disorders can therefore be concurrently present - comorbid insomnia and sleep apnea (COMISA). The prevalence of COMISA in the paediatric age range is unclear.

Impact of L-carnitine in narcolepsy treatment: a systematic review on the effectiveness and safety.

Introduction: Studies have shown that narcolepsy patients may present with low serum acylcarnitine levels, demonstrating a dysfunctional beta fatty acid oxidation pathway in these patients.

Objective: Evaluate the therapeutic efficacy of L-carnitine as a treatment for narcolepsy patients.

Methods: This study runned in form of systematic review.

Comorbid Insomnia and Sleep Apnea: mechanisms and implications of an underrecognized and misinterpreted sleep disorder.

Sleep-disordered breathing (SDB) and insomnia have long been recognized as important sleep disrupters often associated with increased morbidity and mortality. Although they are often seen as divergent conditions, mainly because their cardinal symptoms (excessive daytime sleepiness, and sleep loss) differ, these two sleep disorders present with many common symptoms, which may hinder diagnosis and treatment. In addition to possible bidirectional pathways between SDB and insomnia, other factors such as circadian timing may play a role.
