Prevalence and Impact of Obstructive Sleep Apnea in Multiple Sclerosis

Multiple Sclerosis ยท Obstructive Sleep Apnea

This study will evaluate the influence of sleep apnea on clinical and radiological features of MS. Sleep apnea is associated with hypoxemia during sleep, which is likely detrimental to MS. Clinical data (MRI, lab results, medical history, labs, and sleep studies) of MS patients will be collected and analyzed. This will be done to study correlations between MRI, clinical data, lab studies and sleep studies. There is specific interest in the type of sleep apnea associated with MS, and whether MRI or clinical metrics of MS severity correlate with presence or absence of sleep apnea.

Pharmacological Activation of HMN for OSA Aim 2

Obstructive Sleep Apnea

Obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) is common and has major health implications but treatment options are limited. OSA patients show a marked reduction in upper airway (UA) dilator muscle activity at sleep onset and this phenomenon leads to increased collapsibility of UA compared to normal subjects. In this protocol the investigators will test the effect of LTM1201AZ, LTM1201AT, LTM1201AD, LTM1201AG administered before sleep on OSA phenotype traits and OSA severity during sleep.

CF Wellness Program

Cystic Fibrosis (CF) ยท Fatigue ยท Sleep Quality

This study is a pilot randomized control trial (RCT; N=80) comparing the Cystic Fibrosis Wellness Program (CFWP) to usual care (UC) to evaluate (1) Intervention Adherence (completion of the CFWP Coaching Sessions) (2) Study Retention (completion of the Week 15 assessment) and (3) Data Quality (valid daytime and nighttime fitness tracker data). A secondary aim is to gather preliminary data to determine if the CFWP has a clinically significant signal over usual care to improve fatigue, sleep, and physical activity (PA) and reduce sedentary behavior.

The Effect of Sleep Loss on Emotion Regulation

Sleep ยท Insomnia ยท Sleep Deprivation

The study is designed to investigate the impact of three nights of sleep restricted to 4 hours per night, on the processing and regulation of emotional information compared to Insomnia Disorder and control. The investigators will address and attempt to answer two questions. (i) How do three nights of reduced sleep or a diagnosis of Insomnia Disorder affect the processing and regulation of emotional information compared to typical, undisturbed sleep? (ii) What overlapping and distinct neural mechanisms are engaged and associated with behavioral effects when attempting to process and regulate emotions in a sleep restricted state or with a clinical diagnosis of Insomnia Disorder? This study will investigate sleep's role in emotion processing and regulation. The findings will help further understanding of the role of sleep in healthy emotional functioning.

OurSleepKit To Support CPAP Adherence

Obstructive Sleep Apnea ยท CPAP Treatment ยท Treatment Adherence

The goal of this clinical trial is to learn if a couple-focused mobile health intervention will improve the use of continuous positive airway pressure (CPAP), the primary treatment option for obstructive sleep apnea (OSA). Participants include newly diagnosed patients with OSA who are candidates for CPAP treatment and their partners. The couples will received supportive information and resources on their mobile devices before CPAP begins and continuing for 6 months into CPAP treatment. Their interaction with the resources is self-paced and the time sent engaging with the information is up to them. Participants will be asked to answer questions independently at five points: before CPAP, and after using CPAP for 1-week, 1-month, 3-months and 6-months. Those questions are about their experience of using CPAP, how the partner is involved in CPAP treatment, and symptoms and quality of life. At the end of the study, some couples may be contacted for a virtual discussion about your experience regarding study participation which lasts approximately 1 hour.

Comparing Digital Therapy, Trazodone, and Daridorexant for Menopause-Related Insomnia Symptoms

Menopausal Women ยท Insomnia

The goal of this clinical trial is to learn how three current insomnia therapies (trazodone, daridorexant, cognitive behavioral therapy for insomnia) compare with each other in peri- and post-menopausal women. It will also learn about the safety of the treatments. The main questions it aims to answer are: Which commonly used insomnia therapies are most effective and safe for improving insomnia symptoms in peri- and post-menopausal people? How well do the treatments work for people from different backgrounds, who are at different stages of menopause, and who have different conditions common during menopause (e.g., sleep apnea, mood disturbance, etc.)? What medical problems do participants have when using these treatments? Participants will: Be asked to take trazodone every night, take daridorexant every night, or participate in an online behavioral program for insomnia, for a total of 12 months. Participate in a total of one in-person visit and 7 virtual visits (phone calls) over the 12 months. Wear (and keep) a Fitbit and fill out a daily sleep diary for at least 4 weeks over the 12 months. Fill out online surveys 4 times over the 12 months.

Rescue Pharmacotherapy for OSA

Obstructive Sleep Apnea

Persistent obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) is common in people treated with mandibular advancement device (MAD) or hypoglossal nerve stimulation (HGNS). For most patients, these treatments are the last line of defense. If MAD or HGNS do not work, then patients are left to suffer the consequences of undertreated OSA. In this study, the investigators want to test the addition of a drug treatment to their regimen. Endotypes will be targeted pharmacologically with one of the following drugs: acetazolamide for a high loop gain, atomoxetine-plus-eszopiclone for poor pharyngeal muscle compensation, or trazodone for a low arousal threshold. This aim is expected to provide treatment strategies for rescuing non-responders to MAD or HGNS therapy.

Trazodone on OSA Endotypes

Obstructive Sleep Apnea

Obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) is common and has major health implications but treatment options are limited. Some OSA patients with low arousal threshold wake up prematurely during an obstructive event and do not have time for spontaneous upper airway (UA) dilator muscle recruitment. As a consequence they are exposed to apnea and hypopnea cycling. In this protocol the investigators will test the effect of trazodone administered before sleep on OSA traits and OSA severity during sleep.
