Source : https://www.sciencedirect.com/science/article/abs/pii/S1087079222001319?via=ihub

Sleepiness involves many dimensions that require investigation. Since sleepiness is often defined operationally, we exhaustively inventoried all the assessment tools designed to measure it in an umbrella review, without any...

/>

Conclusions: In total, 99 tools were identified and classified into 8 categories. We classified them depending on their category, their publication year and the number of mentions in the 36 included reviews. The 6 most frequently cited were the Epworth sleepiness scale, the multiple sleep latency test, the maintenance of wakefulness test, the...

Sleep and nutritional profile of endurance and ultra-endurance running athletes

Source : https://sleepscience.org.br/details/3365/en-US/sleep-and-nutritional-profile-of-endurance-and-ultra-endurance-running-athletes

Sleeping and eating before and during an ultramarathon can directly affect an athlete's performance, who may also have their physiological adaptations and recovery process hindered by sleeping problems. Endurance and...



Conclusions/Relevance: Sleep efficiency and race time showed a negative correlation only for ultra-endurance athletes (r=-0.834; p=0.039). The data obtained show that endurance athletes presented more sleep pattern alterations, however, endurance and ultra-endurance athletes showed inadequate nutritional consumption during the competition.

Source : https://sleepscience.org.br/details/3358/en-US/exploring-the-association-between-sleep-insufficiency-and-self-reported-cardiovascular-disease-among-northeastern-greeks

OBJECTIVE: To explore the association of sleep characteristics with cardiovascular disease (CVD) using self-reported questionnaires. MATERIAL AND METHODS: 957 adults between 19 and 86 years old were enrolled in this...

Conclusions: Conclusion: Our study highlights a strong correlation of sleep insufficiency with CVD and promotes early pharmacological or cognitive behavioral interventions in order to protect cardiovascular health.
