    Abstract COVID-19 had a massive impact on sleep, resulting in overall increase of sleep disturbances. During lockdown many factors contributed to sleep disturbances, in particular changes in sleep-wake habits and stress. This article will describe the frequency and features of the principal parasomnias and the impact of the pandemic and the government restriction measures on sleep. Among different pathophysiological hypotheses, we will discuss the role of stress, considered as an expression of the allostatic load. Finally, during the pandemic, parasomnias were mainly investigated by questionnaires, with controversial results; video-polysomnographic studies are crucial to obtain a definitive diagnosis, even in critical conditions.

    Abstract Excessive fragmentary hypnic myoclonus, hypnic jerks, hypnagogic foot tremor, alternating leg muscle activation, and sleep-related cramps are less known sleep-related motor disorders (SRMDs). These manifestations are frequently missed or misinterpreted polygraphic findings that can be frequently confused with the more frequent SRMDs. These symptoms can present as isolated motor symptoms but can be also the cause of otherwise cryptogenic insomnias and somnolence. Expanding the knowledge on these isolated symptoms and defining their polygraphic and clinical features are essential for their identification. However, clear cut-offs to discern between the isolated phenomenon and the disorder are still to be found.

    Abstract Oneiric Stupor (OS) in Agrypnia Excitata represents a peculiar condition characterized by the recurrence of stereotyped gestures such as mimicking daily-life activities associated with the reporting of a dream mentation consisting in a single oneiric scene. It arises in the context of a completely disorganized sleep structure lacking any physiological cyclic organization, thus, going beyond the concept of abnormal dream. However, a proper differential diagnosis of OS, in the complex world of the "disorders of dreaming" can become quite challenging. The aim of this review is to provide useful clinical and videopolygraphic data on OS to differentiate it from other dreaming disorders. Each entity will be clinically evaluated among the areas of dream mentation and abnormal sleep behaviors and its polygraphic features will be analyzed and distinguished from OS.

  8. Article ; Online: A case of disorder of arousal with prolonged postarousal hypersynchronous delta activity.

    Abstract: ... as a characteristic electroencephalography pattern of DOA.: Citation: Kang M, Shin D, Lee HC, Provini F, Jung KY ...

    Abstract Disorder of arousal (DOA) is a form of non-rapid eye movement sleep parasomnia caused by partial or incomplete arousal from deep sleep. Most previous studies of patients with DOA analyzed prearousal hypersynchronous delta activity (HSDA), but few studies have described postarousal HSDA. Herein, we report a 23-year-old man with a history of abrupt arousal during sleep and confused behavior and speech since he was 14 years old. During video electroencephalography monitoring, he had 9 arousal events of getting up, sitting on the bed, looking around, or simple arousal, including eyes open, looking at the ceiling, or head flexion. During all arousal events, the postarousal electroencephalography pattern was prolonged HSDA for approximately 40 seconds. The patient was treated unsuccessfully for more than 2 years with an antiseizure medication (lacosamide); eventually, he responded to clonazepam that was administered for the possibility of DOA. Prolonged rhythmic HSDA without spatiotemporal evolution can appear as a postarousal electroencephalography pattern of DOA. When diagnosing DOA, it is important to recognize that postarousal HSDA can appear as a characteristic electroencephalography pattern of DOA.

    Abstract Fatal Familial Insomnia (FFI) is a hereditary prion disease caused by a mutation at codon 178 of the prion-protein gene leading to a D178N substitution in the protein determining severe and selective atrophy of mediodorsal and anteroventral thalamic nuclei. FFI is characterized by physiological sleep loss, which polygraphically appears to be a slow wave sleep loss, autonomic and motor hyperactivation with peculiar episodes of oneiric stupor. Alteration of autonomic functions is a great burden for FFI patients consisting in sympathetic overactivation, dysregulation of its physiological responses and disruption of circadian rhythms. The cardiovascular system is the most frequently and severely affected confirming the increased sympathetic drive with preserved parasympathetic responses. Sleep loss, autonomic and motor hyperactivation define Agrypnia Excitata (AE), which is not exclusive to FFI, but it has been canonically described also in Morvan Syndrome and Delirium Tremens. These three conditions present different pathophysiological mechanisms but share the same thalamo-limbic impairment of which AE is one of the possible clinical presentations. FFI, and consequently also AE, is a model for the investigation of the essential role of the thalamus in the organization of body homeostasis, integrating both sleep and autonomic function control.
