Sleep scoring in neurodegenerative diseases: Towards new rules - PubMed
Source : https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/40769811/
Standard sleep scoring criteria often fail to accurately describe sleep architecture in patients with neurodegenerative diseases, due to disease-related alterations in neurophysiological variables. Although this issue has long been recognised,...
A novel sleep scoring system tailored for neurodegenerative diseases enhances detection of atypical sleep patterns, offering potential as a non-invasive biomarker. Initial validation shows promise for improved diagnostic accuracy.
Unraveling the relationship between disordered sleep and systemic sclerosis outcomes - PubMed
