• #1 Sleep disorder – Wikipedia

  https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sleep_disorder

  A sleep disorder, or somnipathy, is a medical disorder affecting an individual’s sleep patterns, sometimes impacting physical, mental, social, and emotional functioning. Sleep disorders are broadly classified into dyssomnias, parasomnias, circadian rhythm sleep disorders involving the timing of sleep, and other disorders, including those caused by medical or psychological conditions. When a person struggles to fall asleep or stay asleep without any obvious cause, it is referred to as insomnia, which is the most common sleep disorder. Other sleep disorders include sleep apnea, narcolepsy, hypersomnia (excessive sleepiness at inappropriate times), sleeping sickness (disruption of the sleep cycle due to infection), sleepwalking, and night terrors. […] Sleep disorders are common in both children and adults. However, there is a significant lack of awareness about sleep disorders in children, with many cases remaining unidentified. Several common factors involved in the onset of a sleep disorder include increased medication use, age-related changes in circadian rhythms, environmental changes, lifestyle changes, pre-diagnosed physiological problems, or stress. Among the elderly, the risk of developing sleep-disordered breathing, periodic limb movements, restless legs syndrome, REM sleep behavior disorders, insomnia, and circadian rhythm disturbances is especially high.

• #1 Sleep apnea – Symptoms and causes – Mayo Clinic

  https://www.mayoclinic.org/diseases-conditions/sleep-apnea/symptoms-causes/syc-20377631

  Obstructive sleep apnea occurs when the muscles that support the soft tissues in your throat, such as your tongue and soft palate, temporarily relax. When these muscles relax, your airway is narrowed or closed, and breathing is momentarily cut off. […] You might snort, choke or gasp. This pattern can repeat itself 5 to 30 times or more each hour, all night. This makes it hard to reach the deep, restful phases of sleep. […] This less common form of sleep apnea occurs when your brain fails to send signals to your breathing muscles. This means that you make no effort to breathe for a short period. You might awaken with shortness of breath or have a difficult time getting to sleep or staying asleep. […] The repeated awakenings associated with sleep apnea make typical, restorative sleep impossible, in turn making severe daytime drowsiness, fatigue and irritability likely. You might have trouble concentrating and find yourself falling asleep at work, while watching TV or even when driving. People with sleep apnea have an increased risk of motor vehicle and workplace accidents.

  Links between sleep and depression are strong. About three quarters of depressed patients have insomnia symptoms, and hypersomnia is present in about 40% of young depressed adults and 10% of older patients, with a preponderance in females. The symptoms cause huge distress, have a major impact on quality of life, and are a strong risk factor for suicide. […] The sleep symptoms are often unresolved by treatment, and confer a greater risk of relapse and recurrence. […] Symptoms of disturbed night-time sleep in people with depression have been described extensively in both clinical and epidemiological studies. In clinical samples, difficulty in initiating or maintaining sleep (including early morning wakening) or both have been reported in about three quarters of all depressed patients. […] Hypersomnia is less common, and tends to be a feature of atypical depression, and more prevalent in the young, with about 40% of patients under 30 and 10% of those in their 50s experiencing the symptom, and a higher incidence in females of all ages.

  Disturbed sleep is a very distressing symptom which has huge impact on quality of life in depressed patients. […] Some 97% reported sleep difficulties during depression and 59% of these indicated that poor sleep significantly affected their quality of life. […] There is much evidence that effective antidepressant treatments can successfully elicit significant response in depression, but is much less evidence that effective treatment fully addresses the problem of sleep disturbance. Persistent insomnia is one of the most common residual symptoms in patients with incomplete remission: This presents a problem, given the fact that residual insomnia confers greater risk of subsequent depression.

  Epidemiologic studies indicate that up to 50% of children experience a sleep problem, and about 4% have a formal sleep disorder diagnosis. […] The most recognized consequence of inadequate sleep is daytime sleepiness. However, sleepiness in children commonly manifests as irritability, behavioral problems, learning difficulties, motor vehicle crashes in teenagers, and poor academic performance. […] OSA is characterized by upper airway obstruction, despite respiratory effort, that disrupts normal sleep patterns and ventilation. OSA can be associated with obesity, excessive soft tissue in the upper airway, decreased upper airway lumen size, or failure of pharyngeal dilator muscles. However, in children, the obstruction is primarily due to enlarged tonsils and adenoids. Onset usually occurs between two and eight years of age, coinciding with peak tonsil growth, but the condition can manifest at any age. The overall prevalence in children is 1% to 5%. It occurs equally among males and females, but is more common in ethnic minorities.
