Sleep patterns and stability in perimenopausal women

Shaver, Joan, Giblin, Elizabeth, Lentz, Martha, Lee, Kathryn·1988·SLEEP

Abstract

Women between the ages of 40 and 59 years were classified as pre-, peri-, and postmenopausal, with and without hot flash symptoms, for comparison of somnographic sleep variables. Few differences in sleep variables were noted between the groups. However, peri- and postmenopausal women experiencing hot flashes (symptomatic) tended to have lower sleep efficiencies than those not experiencing hot flashes. As well, rapid-eye-movement (REM) latency was longer (p less than 0.05) in the symptomatic women (means = 94.2 min) than in the nonsymptomatic women (means = 71.4 min). Although an age difference existed between the menopausal status groups, it was less than a decade and a main group effect for sleep efficiency and REM latency was seen while controlling for age and/or depression.

  • Self-reported nocturnal flashes correlate with subjective poor sleep quality, but the association is less clear when objective sleep measures are used.

    “Although self-reported nocturnal flashes correlate with subjective poor sleep quality, such association is less clear when objective sleep measures are used [96,105,106].”

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.
