INTRODUCTION: Music interventions can alleviate patient anxiety and improve post-surgical satisfaction. However, it remains uncertain whether music personal preferences affect efficacy. We tested whether personal music intervention with patient-selected songs played ad libitum is more effective than standard therapist-designed treatment with classical music. METHODS: A prospective, parallel-group, single-blinded, randomized controlled trial with 229 participants (aged 18 to 60 y) previously scheduled for elective surgery...

Sleep disturbances are common in chronic liver disease and significantly impact patient outcomes and quality of life. The severity and nature of sleep disturbances vary by liver disease etiology and severity. While there is ongoing research into the association between liver disease and sleep-wake dysfunction, the underlying pathophysiology varies and, in many cases, is poorly understood. Liver disease is associated with alterations in thermoregulation, inflammation, and physical activity, and is associated with disease specific complications, such as hepatic encephalopathy, that may directly affect sleep...

There are several determinants of mental health symptoms, ranging from individual characteristics to social factors. Consistent with patterns in the general population, students with evening characteristics tend to exhibit more anxiety symptoms and poorer sleep quality compared to morning students. Meal timing also appears to affect sleep and may be associated with mental health symptoms. In this context, the aim of the present study was to investigate the association of the timing of the main and last meals of the day with sleep quality and anxiety levels, according to the chronotype of university students...

Periodic breathing during sleep at high altitude is almost universal among sojourners. Here, in the context of acclimatization and adaptation, we provide a contemporary review on periodic breathing at high altitude, and explore whether this is an adaptive or maladaptive process. The mechanism(s), prevalence and role of periodic breathing in acclimatized lowlanders at high altitude are contrasted with the available data from adapted indigenous populations (e.g. Andean and Tibetan highlanders). It is concluded that (1) periodic breathing persists with acclimatization in lowlanders and the severity is proportional to sleeping altitude; (2) periodic breathing does not seem to coalesce with poor sleep quality such that, with acclimatization, there appears to be a lengthening of cycle length and minimal impact on the average sleeping oxygen saturation; and (3) high altitude adapted highlanders appear to demonstrate a blunting of periodic breathing, compared to lowlanders, comprising a feature that withstands the negative influences of chronic mountain sickness...

The endocannabinoid system is an important neuromodulatory system responsible for maintaining homeostasis in the biological system. Similarly, the autonomic nervous system is important to control involuntary bodily functions such as thermoregulation, regulation of heart rate and sleep latency. The endocannabinoid system and the autonomic nervous system can be modified by osteopathic manipulative techniques. In this report, we present a case of a 53-year-old patient with comorbidities, habitual cannabis use, and disorders associated with the endocannabinoid system and autonomic nervous system, on whom the cranial technique of the fourth ventricle (CV4) was performed...

The accreditation of sleep centres aims to ensure high-quality diagnosis and management of sleep centres. European accreditation standards were introduced in 2006, and were aimed at centres offering inpatient polysomnography and vigilance tests (Mean Sleep Latency Test and Maintenance of Wakefulness Test). Since then, the practice of sleep medicine has evolved, with greater use of ambulatory polysomnography and polygraphy. As a result, in many sleep centres, actual clinical practice, although of a high standard, is no longer in accordance with the published guidelines...
