sleepiness/비만증

OBJECTIVE To better understand the relationships of insomnia, sleepiness, and obesity. METHODS Classic twin study. METHODS A community-based twin registry in Washington State. METHODS One thousand forty-two monozygotic and 828 dizygotic twin pairs participating in the University of Washington Twin

OBJECTIVE To know the relationship between daytime sleepiness and quality of life during pregnancy according to the weight gain and baseline weight. METHODS We studied 216 pregnant women (108 obese and 108 non-obese). At first and third trimester of pregnancy they completed the 12-item short-form

OBJECTIVE To study the effects that gender and obesity have on excessive daytime sleepiness (EDS) in individuals with obstructive sleep apnea-hypopnea syndrome (OSAHS), as well as to identify factors associated with EDS in such individuals. METHODS A total of 300 consecutive patients who completed

OBJECTIVE Excessive daytime sleepiness is a common symptom in obese patients, but what drives this condition is unclear. The objective was to look for clinical, anthropometric, biochemical, and polysomnographic predictors of excessive daytime sleepiness as measured by the Epworth Sleepiness Scale

OBJECTIVE To observe the relationship between Excessive Daytime Sleepiness (EDS) and the presence of risk factors for cardiovascular dysfunction, depression and obesity in the elderly. METHODS We interviewed 168 elderly from the community of Campina Grande, Paraíba. They were selected according to

Prognosis in childhood craniopharyngioma survivors hinges upon late effects such as pituitary deficiency and obesity. Observations indicate that reduced physical activity and increased daytime sleepiness might be risk factors for obesity. We analyzed the degree of daytime sleepiness in 115 childhood

OBJECTIVE The poor quality of sleep and the deprivation thereof have been associated with disruption of metabolic homeostasis, favoring the development of obesity and type 2 diabetes (T2DM). We aimed to evaluate the influence of biliopancreatic diversion (BPD) surgery on sleep quality and excessive

BACKGROUND Hypertension (HT) and obesity have both been linked to obstructive sleep apnoea (OSA). Difficulties have been described in identifying patients with OSA in primary care, causing low referral rates to sleep clinics. Increased knowledge about gender-specific characteristics and symptoms may

We investigate the effects of exenatide on excessive daytime sleepiness (EDS), driving performance and depression score in patients with type 2 diabetes with EDS. Eight obese patients with diabetes but without obstructive sleep apnoea (OSA) participated in a placebo-controlled single-blind study

The purpose of the present study was to identify risk factors for and prevalence of excessive daytime sleepiness and associations between demographic factors, obesity and metabolic syndrome criteria and excessive daytime somnolence (EDS). A descriptive and analytical study was conducted among 508

BACKGROUND We sought to determine prevalence and predictors of excessive daytime sleepiness in patients with severe obesity with a body mass index (BMI) > 35 kg/m(2) and obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) with an apnea-hypopnea index > 15/h. METHODS The study population consisted of 245 obese OSA

BACKGROUND Driving performance is known to be very sensitive to cognitive-psychomotor impairment. The aim of the study was to determine the relationship between obesity, risk of obstructive sleep apnoea (OSA), daytime sleepiness, history of road traffic accident (RTA) and performance on a driving

Craniopharyngioma is a rare dysontogenetic benign tumor. Patients frequently suffer from endocrine deficiencies, sleep disturbances and obesity due to pituitary and hypothalamic lesions. A self-assessment daytime sleepiness questionnaire (German version of the Epworth Sleepiness Scale [ESS]) was

BACKGROUND Obesity, particularly morbid obesity, has various physical and mental complications. Excessive daytime somnolence (EDS) is a sleep disorder that reduces individuals' performance capability and the accuracy of their short-term memory and causes learning problems. This retrospective study
