Abstract

Purpose of review Sleep disorders are among the most challenging non-motor features of Parkinson's disease (PD) and significantly affect quality of life. Research in this field has gained recent interest among clinicians and scientists and is rapidly evolving. This review is dedicated to sleep and circadian dysfunction associated with PD.Recent findings Most primary sleep disorders may co-exist with PD; majority of these disorders have unique features when expressed in the PD population.Summary We discuss the specific considerations related to the common sleep problems in Parkinson's disease including insomnia, rapid eye movement sleep behavior disorder, restless legs syndrome, sleep disordered breathing, excessive daytime sleepiness and circadian rhythm disorders. Within each of these sleep disorders, we present updated definitions, epidemiology, etiology, diagnosis, clinical implications and management. Furthermore, areas of potential interest for further research are outlined.

Each is checked against this paper’s own text: does it say what the citing paper says it does?

  • Compared with healthy aged people, individuals with AD or PD show considerably lower melatonin rhythm amplitudes and excessive sleepiness, as well as other sleep-wake cycle disturbances, such as later sleep onsets.

It highlights the clinical importance of OSA in PD and supports further CPAP trial as a potential interesting treatment for cognitive decline in this population 28228566

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
