Introduction: Severe sleep apnea (SA) affects one-third of stroke patients. Sleepiness, one of
the cardinal symptoms of SA, negatively impacts functional stroke outcomes. The impact of …

Abstract Objective/Background Sleep apnea (SA) is associated with poor outcomes after
stroke. The best sleep apnea-related measure to capture this relationship is currently …

Commentary on Aaronson et al. Effects of continuous positive airway pressure on cognitive
and functional outcome of stroke patients with obstructive sleep apnea: a randomized …

Abstract Objective/Background To examine the association between ethnicity and 90-day
post-stroke subjective sleepiness, an important determinant of quality of life, as measured by …

Background Obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) is highly prevalent in patients with ischemic
stroke. Untreated OSA is associated with an increased risk of cardiovascular morbidity and …

Study Objectives: We evaluated factors associated with the presence of sleep disturbance in
patients with stroke and whether sleep disturbance predicted change in other patient …

Objective/background Sleep-wake dysfunction is bidirectionally associated with the
incidence and evolution of acute stroke. It remains unclear whether sleep disturbances are …

Purpose Obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) is associated with increased risk for stroke, which is
known to further impair respiratory functions. However, it is unknown whether the type and …

Sleep apnea is an independent risk factor for cerebrovascular diseases. Its prevalence in
stroke survivors is high and the disorder negatively affects patients' outcomes. Despite the …

Objective In the absence of systematic and longitudinal data, this study prospectively
