Early Nighttime Parental Interventions and Infant Sleep Regulation Across the First Year
• Objective: To investigate how sleeping arrangement and 2 types of nighttime interventions(non distress and distress) at 1 and 3 months are associated with infants’ sleep development across the first 9 months.
• Method: • Participants: 107 families with solitary or cosleeping infants
• Design: observation and survey at 1, 3, and 9 months
• Measures: • Solitary and cosleeping infants
• # distress-initiated wakings (DIW)
• # non-distress initiated wakings (NDIW) (parents’ behaviors to non-distressed vocalizations or while infants were asleep)
Voltaire, ST, Teti, DM. Early Nighttime Parental Interventions and Infant Sleep Regulation Across the First Year. Sleep 2018, July13.
Parental Interventions and Infant Sleep Regulation
• Results • Infant night wakings decreased over time • Non-distress initiated interventions moderated by sleep arrangement
• Solitary sleeping infants with higher levels of NDIW showed less steep decline in wakings compared to solitary infants with low NDIW
• Higher DIW at 1 and 3 months resulted in steeper decrease in night wakings for both solitary and cosleeping infants.
• Conclusion • Responding to nighttime distress before 3 months predicts better infant sleep • Not responding to non-distress before 3 months predicts better sleep • Parental interventions after 3 month does not have similar impact • Very early patterns of nighttime parenting may organize infant sleep sleep

Midday Napping and Neurocognitive Function in Early Adolescents
• Participants: 363 chinese adolescents (12 + 0.38 years)
• Method: self-reported midday napping, nighttime sleep duration and sleep quality, computerized neurocognitive battery (accuracy and reaction time)
• Xiaopeng Ji, Junxin Li & Jianghong Liu (Feb 2018) The Relationship Between Midday Napping And Neurocognitive Function in Early Adolescents, Behavioral Sleep Medicine
Napping and Neurocognitive in Early Adolescents
• Results • 64% took >3 naps per week • 70% took naps over 30 minutes • Ss with frequent or longer naps reported significantly better night sleep quality
• Frequent nappers (5-7d/week) had significantly better accuracy on sustained attention and nonverbal reasoning, faster reaction times on spatial memory
• Naps of any length resulted in faster reaction time compared to non-nappers • Moderate duration nappers (31-60 min) had both faster speeds and greater accuracy
Conclusion: There is an association between habitual napping and neurocognitive function in early adolescents. Naps 31-60 min seemed best for speed and accuracy.

Acceptability of Smartphone Sleep Apps
• Results: • Barriers identified
• reluctance to follow schedule on weekends • concern about parting with electronics at bedtime
• Intrigued by idea but skeptically they could adopt sleep hygiene practices • More interested in making changes on weekdays than on weekends • Feedback on 2 sleep apps not targeting adolescents was positive with good
adherence and engagement and perceived health benefits
• Conclusion • Need to adapt sleep hygiene apps to targeted populations and consider social and
cultural factors • Importance of platform, setting and messenger to deliver info to adolescents

Exercise vs CBT-I in Cancer Patients
• Results • Exercise and CBT-I significantly improved ISI, PSQI and most sleep diary parameters at FU
(significant main effect of time) • Exercise was statistically inferior to CBT-I at post treatment based on ISI • Exercise was non-inferior at follow-up • Objective actigraphy data did not significantly differ between groups • General persistence of sleep difficulties in CBT-I and EX with remission rates of 30% and 35%
respectively post treatment and at follow-up
• Conclusions: • Exercise and CBT-I significantly improved sleep • CBT-I remains treatment of choice in CA-related insomnia, although exercise has some
beneficial effects

and network meta-analysis. Int J Nurs Stud. 2018 Jan;77:189-196.
Music and Sleep Quality • Results:
• 20 trials, N=1339 insomnia patients; 684 music intervention groups; 655 no music control • 12 treatment groups: acupuncture, music & language induction, listening to music, music and
acupuncture, music assisted relaxation, music assisted relaxation and stimulus control, music with exercise, stimulus control, usual care (health info and hypnosis), western medicine, placebo music
• All interventions significantly better than usual care for improving PSQI • Only music-associated relaxation was significantly better than usual care for improving
overall sleep quality • Only music-assisted relaxation and listening to music had significant advantages for sleep
latency • Listening to music top rated intervention by patients and ranked best for improving SE
• Conclusions: • Music intervention offers clear advantages for adults with primary insomnia. • Listening to music and music-associated relaxation are probably the best options to consider
in the application of music intervention.

• Method: • Participants: n=14 (8 F; age 46.6 + 11.5) with insomnia >3 months (ISQ)
• Exclusion: OSA, sleep disorders, >5 on STOP-Bang, shift work, smoker, beta blockers, psychiatric disorder, antidepressives or anti anxiety meds, pregnant, breastfeeding of caffeine >400mg/day
• Design: • Randomized placebo controlled crossover design • Amber or clear lens glasses worn for 2 hrs before bedtime for 1 week with 4 wk washout • Told to put on glasses during night awakening if light turned on, electronic device used or got out of bed
• Measures: • Pittsburgh Insomnia Rating Scale and Quality of Life, Distress and Sleep Parameter subscales completed at 1800
after 7-d of intervention • Post sleep questionnaire completed every day (SOL, TST, WASO, overall evaluation of sleep and soundness) • Log of when used the glasses • Actigraphy
Shechter, A, Kim EW, St-Onge, MP, Westwood, AJ. Blocking nocturnal blue light or insomnia: A randomized controlled trial. J Psychi Res, Jan 2018, 96, 196-202
Blocking Nocturnal Blue Light • Results: Compared to clear lenses, amber lenses significantly
improved: • PIRS total score (88 vs 72)
• QOL (18 vs 14)
• Distress (56 vs 46)and Sleep Parameter subscales (13 vs 11)
• Overall quality & soundness of sleep significantly higher (3.3 vs 4; 3.3 vs 4.3)
• Reported wake up time significantly delayed (6h:47m vs 7h:15m)
• Subjective TST increased (347 vs 399 min)
• No difference in actigraphy sleep parameters between groups
Conclusion: Amber lenses are a safe, affordable and an easily implemented therapeutic intervention for insomnia symptoms.
Understanding Insomnia
Explanations Given for Going to Bed Late
• Participants: N=17 (7F) ages 20-62 who were frequent bedtime procrastinators and without a Dx of sleep disorders or shift work
• Method: in-depth structured interview and thematic analysis
• Results: Three emerging themes • Deliberate procrastination- willful delay because they deserved time for themselves
• Mindless procrastination- lost track of time
• Strategy delay- need delay in order to fall asleep quickly
• Conclusion: Different causes can direct interventions • Sanne Nauts, Bart A. Kamphorst, Wim Stut, Denise T. D. De Ridder & Joel H. Anderson (2018) The Explanations People Give for Going to Bed Late: A

Insomnia as a Path to Alcoholism • Objective: To assess the risks of Alcohol as a sleep aid by evaluating tolerance
development to sedative–hypnotic effects and subsequent dose escalation
• Method: • Participants: volunteers 21-55 (50% F) with insomnia (DSM-4: SE <85% on
PSG, AHI, PLM <10), good medical and psychiatric health, with no hx of alcoholism or drug abuse
• Design: 2 experiments using 1:4 ratio of vodka:tonic water; first night adapt • Exp #1 n=24; doses 0, 0.3 or 0.6 g/kg ethanol (n=8/dose) before 8hr-PSG on 6 nights • Exp #2 n=12, after 6 nights of ethanol 0.45 g/kg (n=6) vs placebo (n=6) choice of ethanol
or placebo for 7 nights (placebo was tonic water with 5 drops vodka on top) • Measures: PSG parameters, # nights ethanol chosen by each ethanol group

Insomnia a Path to Alcoholism
• Exp 1 - comparison between night 2 (N2) of alcohol vs night 6 (N6) • 0.6g/kg dose had higher SE and TST on N2 compared to 0 and 0.3g/kg (p<.05) • 0.6/kg dose had lower SE and TST on N6 compared to N2 (p<.05) • No difference between 0, 0.3, 0.6 on N6 for SE, TST • Stage 3 significantly decreased on night 6 from night 2
• Exp 2 - after 7 nights of alcohol (4.5g/kg) or placebo and opposite drink on N8, Ss had 7 choice nights to choose with max 3 refills allowed started with 0.2g/kg alcohol
• ethanol pretreated group chose ethanol 54% of nights vs 37% for placebo group • ethanol pretreated group had significantly more total ethanol refills over 7 nights
than placebo pretreated group (7+1.9 vs 3.5+2) with 3 refills max allowed • Ethanol group self administered averaged 1 refill (0.4 g/kg) vs placebo with 0 refills
on half of the nights • No difference in refills across the 7 nights between groups

Insomnia a Pathway to Alcohol
Results:
• 0.6 g/kg ethanol increased TSE and stage 3 on night 2, effects lost by night 6
• After 6 nights of pretreatment, choice nights had more self-administered ethanol refills than placebo
Conclusion:
• Alcohol is a risk as a sleep aid among individuals with insomnia.
• Initially a moderate dose of ethanol improved NPSG sleep but was lost by night 6.
• Tolerance was associated with enhanced self-administration

Influence of Exercise Time of Day on Salivary
Melatonin Responses
• Purpose: Evaluate the influence of exercise time of day on melatonin
• Methods: • 12 regularly exercising males (age 20.8+0.6) • randomized crossover design • All completed 3 protocols separated by > 5 days:
• morning exercise (AMEX; 09:00) • afternoon exercise (PMEX, 1400) • no exercise
• Exercise was 30 min of running at 75% of VO2max • Saliva collected at 20:00h, 22:00h and 03:00 h following each session
Carlson LA, Pobocik KM, Lawrence MA, Brazeau DA, Koch AJ. Influence of Exercise Time of Day on Salivary Melatonin Responses Int J Sports Physiol Perform. 2018 Aug 30:1-13
Influence of time of Exercise on Melatonin
• Results: Significant time and condition effects • s-melatonin significantly increased 03:00 compared to 20h and 22h for all
conditions.
• s-melatonin at 22:00 significantly higher after AMEX (16.5 ± 7.5 pg·mL-1) compared to PMEX (13.7 ± 6.1 pg·mL-1) . Neither differed from control
• Conclusion: Exercising in the afternoon may blunt melatonin secretion as compared to morning exercise. If sleep is an issue morning exercise may be preferable to afternoon exercise.
Reproducibility of the Epworth Sleepiness Scale
• Objective- to measure reproducibility of ESS in suspected OSA pts 1
• Method- retrospective comparison of ESS score at referral and after 1st sleep clinic visit
• Demo: 154 pts (68% M), mean age 51 +13, AHI = 43 + 40
Campbell AJ, Neill AM, Scott DA. Clinical reproducibility of the Epworth Sleepiness Scale for patients with suspected sleep apnea. J Clin Sleep Med. 2018;14(5):791-5.
Changes in ESS Score
• Results – • No statistically significant difference between mean ESS score at referral and first
visit (13.7 ± 4.9 vs 13.5 ± 4.6) (P = .61) • Ave ESS change was -0.2 + 3.9 • 7% dropped from above ESS=10 and 7.8% increased over ESS=10 • 8% had an ESS change of 7 or more • 21% had an ESS change of 5 points or more • 46% had an ESS change of 3 points or more
• Conclusion: ESS is variable and should not be used as the sole tool to prioritize patients for OSA assessment

Requiem for Clinical Use of the ESS
Commentary on the ESS reproducibility study
• ESS performed worst with 39% sensitivity compared to STOP BANG at 87% for identifying OSA risk
• Need to abandon this subjective measure in evaluation of OSA
