    Abstract Context: Although sleep disordered breathing (SDB) is well-recognised in acromegaly, most studies have reported heterogeneous, often heavily treated, groups and few have performed detailed sleep phenotyping at presentation.
    Objective: To study SDB using the gold standard of polysomnography, in the largest group of newly-diagnosed, treatment-naïve patients with acromegaly.
    Setting and patients: 40 patients [22 males, 18 females; mean age 54 years (range 23-78)], were studied to: (i) establish the prevalence and severity of SDB (ii) assess the reliability of commonly employed screening tools [Epworth Sleepiness Scale (ESS) and overnight oxygen desaturation index (DI)] to detect SDB (iii) determine the extent to which sleep architecture is disrupted.
    Results: Obstructive sleep apnoea (OSA), defined by the apnoea-hypopnoea index (AHI), was present in 79% of subjects (mild, n = 12; moderate, n = 5; severe, n = 14). However, in these individuals with OSA by AHI criteria, ESS (positive in 35% [n = 11]) and DI (positive in 71%: mild, n = 11; moderate, n = 6; severe, n = 5) markedly underestimated its prevalence/extent. Seventy-eight percent of patients exhibited increased arousal, with marked disruption of the sleep cycle, despite most (82%) having normal total time asleep. Fourteen patients spent longer in stage 1 sleep. Deeper sleep stages were severely attenuated in many subjects (reduced stage 2, n = 18; reduced slow wave sleep, n = 24; reduced rapid eye movement sleep, n = 32).
    Conclusion: Our study provides strong support for clinical guidelines that recommend screening for sleep apnoea syndrome in patients with newly-diagnosed acromegaly. Importantly, however, it highlights shortcomings in commonly recommended screening tools (questionnaires, desaturation index) and demonstrates the added value of polysomnography to allow timely detection of obstructive sleep apnoea and associated sleep cycle disruption.

    Abstract Many of the neuromuscular and thoracic cage disorders are associated with disorders of breathing during sleep. The abnormal mechanics of the chest wall impairs respiratory muscle function and this is compounded if there is underlying muscle weakness. Respiratory abnormalities appear during REM sleep before NREM or wakefulness. Central sleep apnoeas are characteristic, but obstructive apnoeas are also occur because of loss of tone in the upper airway dilator muscles. Arousals from sleep return the blood gases towards normal, but cause fragmentation of sleep, leading to daytime sleepiness. Ventilatory failure occurs particularly if the vital capacity is less than 1.0-1.5 litres or if the maximal inspiratory mouth pressure is less than 20-25cmH2O. Non invasive ventilation effectively prevents both central and obstructive apnoeas and improves the sleep architecture and daytime blood gases.
