    Abstract About half of continuous positive airway pressure (CPAP)-treated patients are adherent, substantially affecting efficacy. A limitation to understanding predictors of adherence is the lack of a singular definition. Univariate analyses have suggested an array of factors that are statistically significant and reflect disease pathophysiology, clinical features, demographic characteristics, device-related variables, and psychological factors, but whether differences are clinically meaningful is unclear. There have been limited applications of multiple regression to compare the relative influence of multiple variables. This review article considers categories of variables that have been explored and suggests those that may be labeled "best" predictors in understanding CPAP use.

  2. Article: Novel Aspects of CPAP Treatment and Interventions to Improve CPAP Adherence.

    Weaver, Terri E

    Abstract Continuous positive airway pressure (CPAP) is an effective treatment for obstructive sleep apnea. However, the success of this treatment is hampered by nonadherence in half of the treated patients. Moreover, in clinical trials, poor adherence reduces adequate exposure required to determine its true effect. There is growing evidence that behavioral interventions, in addition to education, are a promising approach to improving adherence. Behavioral interventions include the use of cognitive behavioral therapy and motivational enhancement therapy designed to elevate a patient's self-efficacy. The abundance of data obtained by CPAP tracking systems enables daily surveillance of use, and this telemonitoring along with telehealth allows the provider to quickly intervene when nightly CPAP use falls below thresholds or mask leaks are present. Telehealth reaches a large number of patients who may not be able to regularly attend a clinic, providing support and reinforcement. Peer support may also be useful in improving adherence. Not all obstructive sleep apnea patients present with the same phenotype, and can, therefore, be clustered into several groupings. Which intervention is most successful with a given phenotype or cluster remains unexplored. Comprehensive adherence management requires a team approach with the unique contribution of different professionals.

    2021  Volume 11, Issue 5, Page(s) 476–487

    Abstract Objective: Sexual violence has substantial mental health effects on survivors around the globe. Although there has been increasing attention to the ways that sociocultural environments can affect survivors' recovery, there has been no review to our knowledge of the specific factors within sociocultural environments that offer risk or protection, or the mechanisms by which these factors affect recovery.
    Method: To address this gap, we present a conceptual model supported by a theoretical and empirical review that prioritizes research conducted with ethnic minority and global samples.
    Results: We identify three components of global sociocultural settings-norms, structures, and environmental stressors-that may affect mental health following sexual violence. We propose that these components may affect survivors' mental health by (1) influencing how survivors themselves, survivors' social contexts, and the systems with which survivors come into contact think about and respond to sexual violence, and (2) creating additional sources of stress, burden, or protection for survivors.
    Conclusions: We argue that future research, practice, and policy could have a greater effect on survivors by attending to sociocultural factors in recovery.

    Abstract Objective: Contemporary theories conceptualize the anniversary of a traumatic event as a trauma reminder capable of activating posttraumatic stress disorder (PTSD) symptoms. The current study uses the cognitive stress and growth model to examine this model's usefulness in characterizing anniversary reactions.
    Method: Participants (
    Results: Multiple regression analyses found both anniversary-related stress and PTSD symptoms were associated with similar factors with similar magnitude across both outcomes. Trauma centrality was uniquely associated with anniversary-related PTG.
    Conclusions: Anniversaries marked by stress are characterized by factors similar to PTSD generally, but growth-related reactions have different correlates compared to PTG outside the reaction. These findings suggest the anniversary period may be a time of self-reflection about the event and its impact.

    Abstract Sleep is essential for preventing fatigue in occupations that require sustained vigilance. We conducted a scoping review to synthesize knowledge about sleep, fatigue, and performance in pilots, commercial truck drivers, and astronauts. We found 28 studies where researchers objectively or subjectively measured sleep, fatigue, and performance. The research included laboratory-based (simulator) and field-based studies (i.e. real-world missions and a variety of shift-work schedules). Most researchers used actigraphy to measure sleep, and they found that ~6 hrs of sleep was common. The research also demonstrated how sleep duration and quality were negatively affected by schedule irregularity, early-morning start times, and high-risk missions (e.g. extravehicular activities in space). Collectively, the data demonstrated how shorter sleep durations, short off-duty time, and early-morning start times were associated with slower reaction times, more lapses in attention, and premature responses on psychomotor vigilance tests. Considering that few studies included polysomnography and circadian rhythm biomarkers, there remains limited knowledge about the effects of sleep microstructure and circadian rhythm alterations on performance abilities in these occupations. Future neurobiological and mechanistic discoveries will be important for enhancing vigilance, health, and safety for people working in the skies, on the roads, and in space.

    Abstract Quality of life (QoL) is one of the outcomes that can be measured as a component of the required standards for sleep facility accreditation by the American Academy of Sleep Medicine. Utilization of a psychometrically robust QoL instrument is recommended; however, clinicians face a challenge balancing psychometric properties with questionnaire completion and scoring characteristics. This article provides an overview of common QoL instruments as a reference for clinicians when selecting a QoL tool for use in the clinical setting for adult patients with obstructive sleep apnea.

    Abstract While it is known that resource inadequacy increases the risk of exposure to intimate partner violence (IPV) and that women's health is significantly impacted by IPV, scant research has documented diminished resources as a primary determinant of women's health. Fifty female victims of moderate to severe IPV completed assessments of their physical, sexual and psychological experiences of IPV, resource profile, symptoms of posttraumatic stress disorder (PTSD) and depression and mental and physical health-related quality of life (HRQoL). Women's resources, controlling for age, income, psychological abuse and sexual coercion, were unique predictors of symptoms of PTSD, symptoms of depression; and mental HRQoL. The public health implications of the adequacy of women's resources are discussed in the context of IPV prevention and intervention. Future studies should evaluate the efficacy of economic empowerment programs regarding the impact on IPV survivors' mental and physical health and safety.

    Abstract COVID-19, as a global pandemic, was a public health inflection point for individuals affected by intimate partner violence (IPV) and those who provide IPV services. Public health guidelines that were intended to reduce risk of exposure to the virus impacted vulnerability factors for IPV survivors and associated systems of services. We aimed to (1) explore the effect of COVID-19 on survivors of IPV; (2) assess the effect of COVID-19 on IPV-related service provisions and service providers; and (3) explore challenges and opportunities in the wake of COVID-19 on broader IPV services and advocacy.
    Method: Twelve directors of IPV shelter, criminal justice, and other advocacy services within a diverse, Midwestern metropolitan area were recruited to participate in in-depth, semi-structured interviews in June-August 2020. Interviews were transcribed verbatim and analyzed using Dedoose. Data were coded and analyzed through thematic analysis.
    Results: Four major themes, contextualized by COVID-19 and racial injustice, emerged from the data analysis: (1) IPV-related trends; (2) impact on IPV survivors, services, and agency morale; (3) inter-agency collaborations; and (4) future opportunities for innovative service delivery. Gaps and opportunities for developing culturally congruent, trauma-informed services were identified.
    Conclusion: Findings suggest that responsive and accessible IPV resources and associated advocacy services can make the difference between life and death for survivors.
