Effects of combined morbid insomnia and sleep apnea on long-term cardiovascular risk and all-cause mortality in elderly patients: a prospective cohort study. BMC Geriatr 2024; 24:622. [PMID: 39034410 PMCID: PMC11265059 DOI: 10.1186/s12877-024-05147-2] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 12/04/2022] [Accepted: 06/13/2024] [Indexed: 07/23/2024] Open
Abstract
PURPOSE It is reported that insomnia and obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) increase the incidence of adverse cardiovascular events. The aim of this study was to analyze the risk of cardiovascular disease and mortality in elderly patients with comorbid insomnia and obstructive sleep apnea (COMISA). METHODS We included 868 elderly patients with OSA who underwent sleep monitoring at a multicenter sleep room from January 2015 to October 2017. We collected demographic data, clinical features, medical history, sleep parameters, and laboratory findings. Cox proportional hazards analysis was used to identify the relationship between COMISA and adverse cardiovascular events and all-cause mortality. RESULTS There were 181 elderly patients with COMISA. The median follow-up was 43 months, during which we observed major adverse cardiac events (MACE) in 90 patients. The Kaplan-Meier survival curve indicated a significant relationship between COMISA and MACE (Plog Rank < 0.001). Multivariate Cox regression analysis showed that COMISA increased the incidence of MACE (HR = 2.328, 95% CI: 1.349-4.018, P = 0.002), hospitalization for unstable angina (HR = 2.915, 95% CI: 1.397-6.081, P = 0.004), and the combination of all events (HR = 2.301, 95% CI: 1.393-3.803, P = 0.001). However, there were no significant differences in cardiovascular death, all-cause mortality, myocardial infarction, or hospitalized heart failure in patients with COMISA (P > 0.05). Subgroup analyses showed that among COMISA patients, male sex (HR = 2.800, 95% CI: 1.458-5.377, P = 0.002), age < 70 years (HR = 4.050, 95% CI: 2.022-8.115, P < 0.001), and overweight and obesity (HR = 2.482, 95% CI: 1.383-4.453, P = 0.002) were associated with a higher risk of MACE. CONCLUSIONS Our results showed that COMISA increased the risk of MACE, unstable angina, and the compound occurrence of all events. Male, overweight or obese COMISA patients under 70 years of age have an increased risk of MACE.

Nat Sci Sleep 2024; 16:813-821. [PMID: 38911316 PMCID: PMC11192637 DOI: 10.2147/nss.s459690] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 02/19/2024] [Accepted: 05/21/2024] [Indexed: 06/25/2024] Open
Abstract
Purpose The coexistence of insomnia and obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) is very prevalent. Hypoglossal nerve stimulation (HGNS) is an established second-line therapy for patients suffering OSA. Studies investigating the effect of the different aspects of insomnia on the therapeutic outcome are largely missing. Therefore, this study aimed to understand the impact of the different aspects of insomnia on the therapeutic outcome under HGNS therapy in clinical routine. Patients and Methods This is a retrospective study including 30 consecutive patients aged 55.40 ± 8.83 years (8 female; 22 male) undergoing an HGNS implantation in our tertiary medical center between 2020 and 2023. All patients underwent preoperative polysomnography (PSG) according to AASM. First follow-up PSG was performed 95.40 ± 39.44 days after activation (30 patients) and second follow-up PSG was performed 409.89 ± 122.52 days after activation (18 patients). Among others, the following PSG-related parameters were evaluated: apnea-hypopnea index (n/h) (AHI) and oxygen desaturation index (n/h) (ODI). Insomnia was assessed by the insomnia severity index (ISI) questionnaire. Preoperatively, all patients included filled out each ISI item. Spearman's-rho correlation coefficient was calculated for correlations. Results Preoperative score of ISI item 1 (difficulty falling asleep) was 1.93 ± 1.34 and preoperative cumulative ISI score (item1-7) was 18.67 ± 5.32. Preoperative AHI was 40.61 ± 12.02 (n/h) and preoperative ODI was 38.72 ± 14.28 (n/h). In the second follow-up, the mean difference in AHI was ∆ 10.47 ± 15.38 (n/h) and the mean difference in ODI was ∆ 8.17 ± 15.67 (n/h). Strong significant correlations were observed between ISI item 1 (difficulty falling asleep) and both ∆ AHI (r: -0.65, p=0.004) and ∆ ODI (r: -0.7; p=0.001) in the second follow-up. Conclusion Difficulty falling asleep may hence negatively influence HGNS therapeutic outcome. Insomnia-related symptoms should be considered in the preoperative patient evaluation for HGNS.

Psychometric evaluation of the Brazilian-Portuguese version of the Functional Outcome of Sleep Questionnaire 10 (FOSQ-10) in patients with obstructive apnea. Braz J Otorhinolaryngol 2024; 90:101452. [PMID: 38991400 PMCID: PMC11295562 DOI: 10.1016/j.bjorl.2024.101452] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 01/07/2024] [Revised: 03/21/2024] [Accepted: 05/09/2024] [Indexed: 07/13/2024] Open
Abstract
OBJECTIVE Perform the validation and psychometric evaluation of the Brazilian-Portuguese translation of the Functional Outcome of Sleep Questionnaire 10 (FOSQ10). MATERIALS AND METHODS 182 patients (65 females 48.3±14.4 years and 117 males 46.9±12.4 years), were evaluated by sleep physicians suspected of having Obstructive Sleep Apnea, underwent polysomnography and completed the FOSQ-10 and the Epworth Sleepiness Scale. APA & NCME, 2014 was used to validate the data as the American Educational Research Association recommended. RESULTS Quality indicators such as Bartlett's test of sphericity (χ2 = 1108.2; gL=45; p= 0.000010) and KMO (0.83), and adherence measures, attest to the quality of the model. The indicators TLI (0.97), CFI (0.98), and RMSEA (0.04) fall within the expected values. Using the Eigenvalue > 1 technique, two factors explain 53% and 13.3% of the variances. In the Parallel Analysis technique, a single factor explained 59.4653% of the random variance, and the Unidimensionality indicators UniCo = 0.921, ECV = 0.822, and MIREAL = 0.253, were supported. Construct Validity: reliability coefficients Cronbach's α = 0.87, McDonald's ordinal Omega index 0.9, and the Composite Reliability 0.891 were satisfactory. CONVERGENT VALIDITY There was a significant Spearman correlation between FOSQ-10 and the Epworth Sleepiness Scale (r = 0.364 [-0.487; -0.226]). CRITERION VALIDITY Was not possible to differentiate the groups based on the severity of AHI using FOSQ-10P. CONCLUSIONS The Brazilian translation of FOSQ-10 is valid and reliable for identifying significant effects of excessive daytime sleepiness in patients with Obstructive Sleep Apnea.

Abstract
PURPOSE OF REVIEW Insomnia and obstructive sleep apnea have previously been viewed as completely independent conditions. However, there is now increasing recognition that insomnia and sleep apnea frequently co-occur. Co-morbid insomnia and sleep apnea (COMISA) is a highly prevalent condition that is associated with impairment of sleep, daytime function, mental health and physical health outcomes, and mortality risk. This review aims to provide an update on COMISA prevalence, consequences, treatment approaches, and future research directions. RECENT FINDINGS People with COMISA experience worse sleep, mental health, physical health, quality of life and longevity compared to people with neither condition, and often compared to those with insomnia alone and sleep apnea alone. Emerging evidence suggests that cognitive behavioral therapy for insomnia is an effective treatment in the presence of treated and untreated sleep apnea, that may also improve manifestations and subsequent management of sleep apnea. Future research is required to understand the etiology of COMISA, and to develop and implement tailored treatment approaches. SUMMARY It is important for sleep and respiratory technicians, researchers and clinicians to be aware of the high co-morbidity rates, consequences, and treatment requirements of patients with co-morbid insomnia and sleep apnea.

Neurocognitive functioning in comorbid insomnia and sleep apnea patients is better after positive airway pressure therapy, but worse after cognitive behavioral therapy for insomnia: exploratory analysis of cognitive outcomes from the Multidisciplinary Approach to the Treatment of Insomnia and Comorbid Sleep Apnea study. Sleep 2023; 46:zsad128. [PMID: 37148183 PMCID: PMC10424173 DOI: 10.1093/sleep/zsad128] [Citation(s) in RCA: 1] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 01/03/2023] [Revised: 04/11/2023] [Indexed: 05/08/2023] Open
Abstract
STUDY OBJECTIVES Neurocognitive impairments in comorbid insomnia and sleep apnea (COMISA) are not well documented. We explored neurocognitive functioning and treatment effects in individuals with COMISA as an ancillary study to a randomized clinical trial. METHODS Participants with COMISA (n = 45; 51.1% female; mean age = 52.07 ± 13.29 years), from a 3-arm randomized clinical trial combining cognitive behavioral therapy for insomnia (CBT-I) and positive airway pressure (PAP) concurrently (CBT-I+PAP) or sequentially, completed neurocognitive testing at baseline, and post-treatment. Using Bayesian linear mixed models, we estimated effects of CBT-I, PAP, or CBT-I+PAP, compared to baseline, and CBT-I+PAP compared to PAP on 12 metrics across five cognitive domains. RESULTS This COMISA sample had worse neurocognitive performance at baseline than reported for insomnia, sleep apnea, and controls in the literature, though short-term memory and psychomotor speed performance appears intact. When comparing PAP to baseline, performance on all measures was better after treatment. Performance after CBT-I was worse compared to baseline, and only performance in attention/vigilance, executive functioning via Stroop interference and verbal memory was better with moderate-high effect sizes and moderate probability of superiority (61-83). Comparisons of CBT-I+PAP to baseline generated results similar to PAP and comparing CBT-I+PAP to PAP revealed superior performance in only attention/vigilance via psychomotor vigilance task lapses and verbal memory for PAP. CONCLUSIONS Treatment combinations involving CBT-I were associated with poorer neurocognitive performance. These potentially temporary effects may stem from sleep restriction, a component of CBT-I often accompanied by initially reduced total sleep time. Future studies should examine long-term effects of individual and combined COMISA treatment pathways to inform treatment recommendations. CLINICAL TRIAL This was an ancillary study from a clinical trial (Multidisciplinary Approach to the Treatment of Insomnia and Comorbid Sleep Apnea (MATRICS), which was preregistered at www.clinicaltrials.gov (NCT01785303)).

Abstract
BACKGROUND Evaluation and interpretation of the literature on obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) allows for consolidation and determination of the key factors important for clinical management of the adult OSA patient. Toward this goal, an international collaborative of multidisciplinary experts in sleep apnea evaluation and treatment have produced the International Consensus statement on Obstructive Sleep Apnea (ICS:OSA). METHODS Using previously defined methodology, focal topics in OSA were assigned as literature review (LR), evidence-based review (EBR), or evidence-based review with recommendations (EBR-R) formats. Each topic incorporated the available and relevant evidence which was summarized and graded on study quality. Each topic and section underwent iterative review and the ICS:OSA was created and reviewed by all authors for consensus. RESULTS The ICS:OSA addresses OSA syndrome definitions, pathophysiology, epidemiology, risk factors for disease, screening methods, diagnostic testing types, multiple treatment modalities, and effects of OSA treatment on multiple OSA-associated comorbidities. Specific focus on outcomes with positive airway pressure (PAP) and surgical treatments were evaluated. CONCLUSION This review of the literature consolidates the available knowledge and identifies the limitations of the current evidence on OSA. This effort aims to create a resource for OSA evidence-based practice and identify future research needs. Knowledge gaps and research opportunities include improving the metrics of OSA disease, determining the optimal OSA screening paradigms, developing strategies for PAP adherence and longitudinal care, enhancing selection of PAP alternatives and surgery, understanding health risk outcomes, and translating evidence into individualized approaches to therapy.

Abstract
STUDY OBJECTIVES Dyslipidemia in obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) has been attributed to confounding obesity and/or diabetes. This study aimed to examine lipid profiles in nondiabetic, nonobese patients with OSA and identify the possible effects of age and sex. METHODS We retrospectively evaluated the lipid parameters of 3,050 adults who underwent polysomnography. A total of 2,168 patients were excluded due to obesity (body mass index ≥ 30 kg/m2), diabetes, alcoholism, untreated hypothyroidism, lipid-lowering drug use, missing sleep data, or treatment for suspected OSA. RESULTS Of 882 patients (75% males, aged 46.8 ± 12.2 years) included in the study, 88.4% had OSA. Levels of total cholesterol (P = .003), low-density-lipoprotein (LDL) cholesterol (P = .005), non-high-density-lipoprotein (non-HDL) cholesterol (P = .001), and triglycerides (P = .007) were significantly higher in patients with OSA than in those without, whereas HDL-cholesterol levels did not differ. The proportion of patients with hypercholesterolemia and/or elevated non-HDL cholesterol (> 160 mg/dL) was significantly higher in OSA than in non-OSA. Correlation analyses by sex revealed stronger and more significant relationships between lipid parameters and apnea-hypopnea index in women than in men (r = .135, P < .001, vs r = .080, P = .043 for total cholesterol; r = .111, P < .001, vs r = .080, P = .046 for non-HDL cholesterol; r = .122, P < .001, vs r = .061, P = .107 for LDL cholesterol, respectively). In regression analysis, the rate of hypercholesterolemia increased with age (P < .001 for women and P = .031 for men); non-HDL- and LDL-cholesterol levels significantly increased with OSA severity (P = .035 and P = .023, respectively) and age (P = .004 and P = .001, respectively) in women. CONCLUSIONS After excluding confounding obesity and diabetes, patients with OSA have an impaired lipid profile including total cholesterol, LDL cholesterol, non-HDL cholesterol, and triglycerides. A significant association between dyslipidemia and OSA severity was observed in women but not in men. CITATION Basoglu OK, Tasbakan MS, Kayikcioglu M.

Abstract
Obstructive sleep apnea is known to be an overall public health problem that, among other things, increases morbidity and mortality. Risk factors as well as symptoms of this multidimensional sleep-related breathing disorder negatively affect quality of life. With our study we aimed to expose the association between obstructive sleep apnea and quality of life in the population of Pomerania, Germany. We utilized data from the population-based Study of Health in Pomerania (SHIP). Information on health status and risk factors about 4420 participants (2275 women) were gathered within the cohort SHIP-TREND, of which 1209 (559 women) underwent an overnight polysomnography and completed sleep questionnaires. The quality of life of the participants was measured using the Short-Form 12 questionnaire. For our study, an ordinal regression analysis with age, sex, body mass index and the Short-Form 12 health survey as predictors for apnea-hypopnea index was computed. The potential factors affecting quality of life are different between physical and mental dimensions of quality of life. Significant effects were found regarding age, sex, body mass index and the Short-Form 12 Mental Component Score, but not the Physical Component Score.

Post-Operative Patients’ Satisfaction and Quality of Life Assessment in Adult Patients with Obstructive Sleep Apnea Syndrome (OSAS). INTERNATIONAL JOURNAL OF ENVIRONMENTAL RESEARCH AND PUBLIC HEALTH 2022; 19:ijerph19106273. [PMID: 35627810 PMCID: PMC9141812 DOI: 10.3390/ijerph19106273] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 04/28/2022] [Revised: 05/18/2022] [Accepted: 05/19/2022] [Indexed: 01/27/2023]
Abstract
Background: The treatment for severe OSAS includes maxillomandibular advancement surgical option in selected cases. The aim of this study was to evaluate the post-operative impact of bimaxillary surgery on satisfaction and consequently the quality of life of these patients. Methods: This study included 18 patients with severe OSAS who received maxillomandibular advancement surgery. Patients were divided into Group A (operated by CAD/CAM) and Group B (conventional surgery). The impact of bimaxillary surgery on satisfaction and quality of life of these patients was evaluated by utilizing post-operative life quality and Rustemeyer’s patient-satisfaction-based survey. Results: A total of 18 adult OSAS patients (Group A: 11 patients, Group B: 7 patients) with a mean age of 44.39 years (SD ± 9.43) were included. Mean follow-up period was 32.64 months (SD ± 21.91). No intra-operative complications were seen in any patients. Post-operative complication was seen in one patient and the mandible did not integrate. According to the results, overall post-operative satisfaction score was 79.72% (SD ± 9.96). There was no significant difference among those in Group A and Group B. Conclusion: Maxillomandibular advancement surgery seems to be beneficial in terms of patients’ satisfaction in severe adult OSAS patients and can be considered as a valuable option in selected cases.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION Comorbid insomnia and poor sleep quality in Parkinson's disease (PD) are associated with a poor health-related quality of life (HRQoL). However, the relationship between HRQoL and sleep measures obtained using polysomnography (PSG) remains unclear. We aimed to examine the association between various sleep measures and HRQoL in PD patients. METHODS We retrospectively included patients with PD who underwent PSG and responded to self-administered questionnaires including the Pittsburgh Sleep Quality Index (PSQI) and Medical Outcomes Study 36-Item Short-Form Health Survey. RESULTS The patients' (n = 120) mean age was 67.06 (SD = 8.77) years, and their mean Hoehn and Yahr stage was 2.25 (SD = 0.78). A higher PSQI score (worse subjective sleep quality) was correlated in PSG with shorter sleep latency, less N1 sleep, and more N2 sleep. Multiple regression analysis showed that the total PSQI score correlated with both physical and mental HRQoL (p < 0.001 in both cases). However, neither type of HRQoL studied correlated with objective sleep measures, including indicators of sleep architecture, sleep-disordered breathing, and sleep related movement disorders. CONCLUSION Despite the association between subjective sleep quality and HRQoL, the associations between objective measures and HRQoL were negligible. Objective sleep fragmentation may not be perceived as a sleep disturbance in patients with PD, and therefore may not adversely affect their subjective health, given the paradoxical correlation between PSQI score and sleep architecture.

Abstract
The association between sleep problems and quality of life has been well documented and the COVID-19 pandemic seemingly had an impact on both sleep quality and health-related quality of life (HRQoL). However, recent evidence about this relationship among university students is limited. The aims of this study are to investigate the prevalence of poor sleep quality and insomnia and to explore the associations between these outcomes, perceived stress, and HRQoL among Italian university students. An anonymous questionnaire comprising the Pittsburgh Sleep Quality Index, the Insomnia Severity Index, the Short Form-12 health survey, and the Perceived Stress Scale was administered to a convenience sample of 1279 students (1119 females and 160 males, mean age: 23.4 ± 2.5 years) attending one of the largest Italian universities. A total of 65% of the participants showed poor sleep quality, whereas 55% reported insomnia symptoms. Students reporting poor sleep quality and insomnia obtained higher perceived stress scores and lower physical and mental HRQoL scores. Controlling for health-related variables and perceived stress, hierarchical regression analyses showed that sleep quality components added a significant contribution to the prediction of both physical (ΔR2 = 0.1) and mental (ΔR2 = 0.02) HRQoL. As a whole, these findings confirm the relevance of sleep for university students’ well-being and might inform the development of health promotion interventions for this population.

Abstract
Obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) and insomnia are the two most common sleep disorders among the general population, and they may often coexist in patients with sleep-disordered breathing (SDB). The higher prevalence of insomnia symptoms in patients with OSA (40–60%) compared to that observed in the general population has thus led researchers to identify a new disorder named comorbid insomnia and OSA (COMISA), whose true burden has been so far largely underestimated. The combined treatment of COMISA patients with positive-airway pressure ventilation (PAP) with cognitive behavioral therapy for insomnia (CBTi) has shown a better patient outcome compared to that obtained with a single treatment. Furthermore, recent evidence has shown that an innovative patient-centered approach taking into consideration patient characteristics, treatment preferences and accessibility to treatment is recommended to optimize clinical management of COMISA patients. However, in this complex mosaic, many other sleep disorders may overlap with COMISA, so there is an urgent need for further research to fully understand the impact of these therapies on outcomes for OSA patients with comorbidity. In light of this need, this review focuses on the major sleep disorders comorbid with OSA and the recent advances in the management of these insomniac patients.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE Co-morbid insomnia and sleep apnea (COMISA) is a common and debilitating condition that is more difficult to treat compared to insomnia or sleep apnea-alone. Emerging evidence suggests that cognitive behavioral therapy for insomnia (CBTi) is effective in patients with COMISA, however, those with more severe sleep apnea and evidence of greater objective sleep disturbance may be less responsive to CBTi. Polysomnographic sleep study data has been used to predict treatment response to CBTi in patients with insomnia-alone, but not in patients with COMISA. We used randomized controlled trial data to investigate polysomnographic predictors of insomnia improvement following CBTi, versus control in participants with COMISA. METHODS One hundred and forty five participants with insomnia (ICSD-3) and sleep apnea [apnea-hypopnea index (AHI) ≥ 15] were randomized to CBTi (n = 72) or no-treatment control (n = 73). Mixed models were used to investigate the effect of pre-treatment AHI, sleep duration, and other traditional (AASM sleep macrostructure), and novel [quantitative electroencephalography (qEEG)] polysomnographic predictors of between-group changes in Insomnia Severity Index (ISI) scores from pre-treatment to post-treatment. RESULTS Compared to control, CBTi was associated with greater ISI improvement among participants with; higher AHI (interaction p = 0.011), less wake after sleep onset (interaction p = 0.045), and less N3 sleep (interaction p = 0.005). No quantitative electroencephalographic, or other traditional polysomnographic variables predicted between-group ISI change (all p > 0.09). DISCUSSION Among participants with COMISA, higher OSA severity predicted a greater treatment-response to CBTi, versus control. People with COMISA should be treated with CBTi, which is effective even in the presence of severe OSA and objective sleep disturbance.

Abstract
Comorbid insomnia and sleep apnea (COMISA) are the most common co-occurring sleep disorders and present many challenges to clinicians. This review provides an overview of the clinical challenges in the management of patients with COMISA, with a focus on recent evidence regarding the evaluation and treatment of COMISA. Innovations in the assessment of COMISA have used profile analyses or dimensional approaches to examine symptom clusters or symptom severity that could be particularly useful in the assessment of COMISA. Recent randomized controlled trials have provided important evidence about the safety and effectiveness of a concomitant treatment approach to COMISA using cognitive-behavioral therapy for insomnia (CBT-I) with positive airway pressure (PAP). Furthermore, patient-centered considerations that integrate patient characteristics, treatment preferences, and accessibility to treatment in the context of COMISA are discussed as opportunities to improve patient care. Based on these recent advances and clinical perspectives, a model for using multidisciplinary, patient-centered care is recommended to optimize the clinical management of patients with COMISA.

Abstract
STUDY OBJECTIVES Cognitive behavioral therapy for insomnia (CBTI) for comorbid insomnia and obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) has had mixed results. We integrated CBTI with a positive airway pressure (PAP) adherence program and tested effects on sleep and PAP use. METHODS 125 veterans (mean age 63.2, 96% men, 39% non-Hispanic white, 26% black/African American, 18% Hispanic/Latino) with comorbid insomnia and newly-diagnosed OSA (apnea-hypopnea index ≥ 15) were randomized to 5-weekly sessions integrating CBTI with a PAP adherence program provided by a "sleep coach" (with behavioral sleep medicine supervision), or 5-weekly sleep education control sessions. Participants and assessment staff were blinded to group assignment. Outcomes (baseline, 3 and 6 months) included Pittsburgh Sleep Quality Index (PSQI), 7-day sleep diary (sleep onset latency [SOL-D], wake after sleep onset [WASO-D], sleep efficiency [SE-D]), 7-day actigraphy (SE-A), and objective PAP use (hours/night and nights ≥ 4 h). Insomnia Severity Index (ISI), Epworth Sleepiness Scale (ESS), and Functional Outcomes of Sleep Questionnaire-10 (FOSQ-10) were also collected. RESULTS Compared to controls, intervention participants showed greater improvement (baseline to 3 and 6 months, respectively) in PSQI (-3.2 and -1.7), SOL-D (-16.2 and -15.5 minutes), SE-D (10.5% and 8.5%), SE-A (4.4% and 2.6%) and more 90-day PAP use (1.3 and 0.9 more hours/night, 17.4 and 11.3 more nights PAP ≥ 4 h). 90-day PAP use at 3 months was 3.2 and 1.9 h/night in intervention versus controls. Intervention participants also had greater improvements in ISI, ESS, and FOSQ-10 (all p < 0.05). CONCLUSIONS An intervention integrating CBTI with a PAP adherence program delivered by a supervised sleep coach improved sleep and PAP use in adults with comorbid insomnia and OSA.

Abstract
Objective Obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) is more common in men than in women. In this study, we aimed to address the impact of gender on symptoms and comorbidities in patients with OSA. Materials and Methods This cross-sectional study was conducted among 1,317 consecutive patients, who were admitted to the Sleep Apnea Clinic of the Marmara University Hospital between November 2015 and October 2018, and who completed questionnaires and a sleep study with cardiorespiratory polygraphy. OSA was defined as Apnea Hypopnea Index (AHI) ≥15/hour. Results In all, 1,042 patients (334 women) fulfilled the inclusion criteria. OSA was observed in 589 patients (56.5%). Women were older than men (50.2±12.5 versus 45.6±15.1 years) and had lower AHI (22.1±20.1 versus 26.8±21.9 events/h). In the OSA group, women were older (53.7±11.5 versus 47.8±12.8 years) and more obese (BMI 34.6 versus 31.8 kg/m2). Symptoms were categorized as frequent/very frequent, and women with OSA complained more about daytime fatigue (74.6% versus 63.7%), nocturia (69.7% versus 51.8%), headache in the morning (50.0% versus 28.4%), depressive mood (49.0% versus 19.5%), and restless legs symptoms (43.1% versus 17.2%), than did men (all p values <0.05). Comorbidities were observed more in women than in men (lung disease [25.4% versus 13.7%], hypertension [29.6% versus 15.0%], diabetes [20.3% versus 11.3%], and hypothyroidism [14.0 % versus 4.1%]). In regression analysis, age (OR 1.03, p<0.001), BMI (OR 1.13, p<0.001), and male sex (OR 2.08, p<0.001) were significantly predictive for OSA while history of tonsillectomy was protective (OR 0.48, p=0.033). Conclusion Fatigue, nocturia, headache, depressive mood, restless leg, and comorbidities were observed more in women. OSA-related symptoms develop late and/or the referral of women for diagnostic evaluation of OSA is delayed. Symptoms and comorbidities in women should be evaluated more attentively for earlier referral and diagnosis of OSA.

Abstract
Obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) has historically been regarded as a male disease. However, there are a number of significant gender-related differences in the symptoms, diagnosis, and consequences of OSA, which seems to be more severe in male than in female patients, although this sex difference decreases with increasing age. Female patients with OSA tend to present nonspecific symptoms, such as insomnia, depressive symptoms, fatigue, morning headache, and nightmares, often resulting in underdiagnosis and undertreatment compared to male patients. Understanding these differences in women is essential for early identification and referral of patients for diagnosis and treatment of OSA.

Abstract
STUDY OBJECTIVES To investigate treatment models using cognitive behavioral therapy for insomnia (CBT-I) and positive airway pressure (PAP) for people with obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) and comorbid insomnia. METHODS 121 adults with OSA and comorbid insomnia were randomized to receive CBT-I followed by PAP, CBT-I concurrent with PAP, or PAP only. PAP was delivered following standard clinical procedures for in-lab titration and home setup and CBT-I was delivered in four individual sessions. The primary outcome measure was PAP adherence across the first 90 days, with regular PAP use (≥4 h on ≥70% of nights during a 30-day period) serving as the clinical endpoint. The secondary outcome measures were the Pittsburgh Sleep Quality Index (PSQI) and Insomnia Severity Index (ISI) with good sleeper (PSQI <5), remission (ISI <8), and response (ISI reduction from baseline >7) serving as the clinical endpoints. RESULTS No significant differences were found between the concomitant treatment arms and PAP only on PAP adherence measures, including the percentage of participants who met the clinical endpoint. Compared to PAP alone, the concomitant treatment arms reported a significantly greater reduction from baseline on the ISI (p = .0009) and had a greater percentage of participants who were good sleepers (p = .044) and remitters (p = .008). No significant differences were found between the sequential and concurrent treatment models on any outcome measure. CONCLUSIONS The findings from this study indicate that combining CBT-I with PAP is superior to PAP alone on insomnia outcomes but does not significantly improve adherence to PAP.

Abstract
Co-morbid insomnia and sleep apnea (COMISA) is a highly prevalent and debilitating disorder, which results in additive impairments to patients' sleep, daytime functioning, and quality of life, and complex diagnostic and treatment decisions for clinicians. Although the presence of COMISA was first recognized by Christian Guilleminault and colleagues in 1973, it received very little research attention for almost three decades, until the publication of two articles in 1999 and 2001 which collectively reported a 30%-50% co-morbid prevalence rate, and re-ignited research interest in the field. Since 1999, there has been an exponential increase in research documenting the high prevalence, common characteristics, treatment complexities, and bi-directional relationships of COMISA. Recent trials indicate that co-morbid insomnia symptoms may be treated with cognitive and behavioral therapy for insomnia, to increase acceptance and use of continuous positive airway pressure therapy. Hence, the treatment of COMISA appears to require nuanced diagnostic considerations, and multi-faceted treatment approaches provided by multi-disciplinary teams of psychologists and physicians. In this narrative review, we present a brief overview of the history of COMISA research, describe the importance of measuring and managing insomnia symptoms in the presence of sleep apnea, discuss important methodological and diagnostic considerations for COMISA, and review several recent randomized controlled trials investigating the combination of CBTi and CPAP therapy. We aim to provide clinicians with pragmatic suggestions and tools to identify, and manage this prevalent COMISA disorder in clinical settings, and discuss future avenues of research to progress the field.

Abstract
Purpose: Poor sleep quality is harmful for everyone and potentially even more harmful for older adults with atrial fibrillation-associated stroke (AFAS). This study aims to explore the effects of eight-section brocade (ESB) on sleep quality, memory, and cardiopulmonary function in the older adults with AFAS. Methods: Older adults with AFAS and sleep disorders were recruited and divided into the ESB (EG, n = 85) and control groups (CG, general exercise, n = 85). EG patients received 60 min ESB exercises 5 times a week for 12 weeks; CG patients received normal exercise. Pittsburgh sleep quality index (PSQI) scores (poor sleepers ≥8 and normal sleepers < 8), memory for word pairs (poor memory ≤ 7 and normal memory > 7), left ventricular posterior wall (LVPW) thickness, and maximum ventilation (MV, to evaluate cardiopulmonary function) values were measured. The correlation between sleep and memory quality was analyzed using PSQI scores and word pairs via the Pearson correlation coefficients test. Adjusted Cox models were used to explore an interaction between PSQI and ESB exercise. Results: After 12-week exercise intervention, ESB improved sleep quality, latency, duration, disturbance and daytime dysfunction when compared to conventional exercise. In similar cases, the MV values in the EG were also higher than that in the CG (p = 0.009). ESB intervention could not affect the cardiac structure and left ventricular ejection fraction. Compared with the CG, the ESB intervention reduced PSQI scores and increased memorized word pairs (p < 0.001 for poor and normal sleepers in both unadjusted and adjusted analysis, p = 0.012 and 0.003 for poor and normal memory). The test of Pearson correlation coefficients showed that PSQI scores were strongly associated with the number of word pairs in both unadjusted and adjusted analyses (p < 0.0001). Conclusion: Eight-section brocade exercise improved sleep quality and memory consolidation and cardiopulmonary function by reducing PSQI scores, increasing word pairs and MV values in the older adults with AFAS.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE To determine prevalence of comorbid undiagnosed sleep disordered breathing (SDB) in chronic insomnia patients, using two complementary methods, one standard and one novel. METHODS Using prospective design, adult patients diagnosed with chronic insomnia, treated with prescription pharmacological agents for >3 months without prior objective sleep evaluation or diagnosis of SDB were invited to participate. All patients recorded their sleep for two consecutive nights using level 3 home-sleep-apnea-test (HSAT) device to derive Respiratory Event Index (REI) for OSA diagnosis. The electrocardiogram-signal (ECG) recorded by the same device was analyzed using FDA cleared medical software, Cardiopulmonary Coupling (CPC) to quantify sleep time and identify sleep-quality and pathology. RESULTS Of 110 chronic insomnia patients who volunteered between May 2017 and June 2018, 88% were women. Prevalence of moderate-severe SDB (REI > 15) was 25% based on REI-scoring. Surrogate markers of moderate-severe SDB detected by the novel method identified prevalence of 33%, with negative predictive value 96%, reclassifying 10 individuals that HSAT diagnosed with mild SDB with more advanced disease state. Agreement between the methods is 88%. CONCLUSION High prevalence and overlap in symptoms between insomnia and SDB warrants objective testing when evaluating sleep complaints before therapy is initiated. Diagnostic caution is even more importantly warranted for female patients presenting insomnia sleep complaints, as SDB may not be initially considered as a biological symptom driver. CPC-analysis can complement standard HSAT or serve as a standalone option to evaluate sleep complaints in individuals presenting insomnia symptoms before therapy is initiated.
