Nocturnal sleep architecture in idiopathic hypersomnia: a systematic review and meta-analysis.

ABSTRACT:

Background

Current sleep medicine nosology places increased importance on nocturnal polysomnographic sleep recordings in the diagnosis of central nervous system disorders of hypersomnolence, particularly idiopathic hypersomnia (IH).

Objective

Determine what differences in sleep staging and architecture exist between IH and healthy controls using meta-analysis.

Methods

Systematic review identified relevant studies that included nocturnal polysomnography data for IH and healthy control groups. Meta-analysis compared standardized mean differences (Hedge's g) for total sleep time (TST), sleep onset latency (SOL), sleep efficiency (SE), rapid eye movement (REM) sleep percentage, slow wave sleep (SWS) percentage, and REM latency (REML). Moderator analyses were also conducte
