Filter by:Although many studies have shown an inverse relationship between blood glucose regulation and sleep hygiene, recommendations for improving sleep hygiene have not yet been included in diabetes treatment guidelines. In this study, it was aimed to reveal with a randomized controlled study whether training on sleep hygiene will have an effect on blood glucose regulation of Type 2 diabetes patients. Case and control groups will be formed by random sampling method. Pıttsburgh sleep quality index will be applied face to face and HbA1c values will be recorded for all patients included in the study. In addition, sleep hygiene training will be given to the case group. Among the patients included in the study, the second HbA1c levels of those who came for routine diabetes control within six months will be recorded and the sleep hygiene education compliance scale will be applied to the case group. Differences between groups will be evaluated using chi-square and Student's t tests. According to the results of the research, it will be tried to decide whether sleep hygiene education can be used in the treatment of type 2 diabetes patients.
This study applied slowly oscillating (0.5 hz) transcranial electrical stimulation (TES; frontopolar and lateral frontal electrodes versus mastoid and occipital electrode returns) to synchronize the endogenous slow oscillations (SOs) of deep sleep (N3 or stage 3 Non-REM). A double-blind placebo control provided no stimulation. The primary endpoint was duration of N3 sleep during the night. Thirteen normal adults completed the study (before the study was terminated because of COVID-19), and usable data were obtained from ten. The synchronizing stimulation resulted in significantly longer N3 sleep compared to placebo.
The purpose of this study is to evaluate whether undergraduate students completing a course focused entirely on sleep at a major urban university evidence positive changes in their sleep patterns compared to students completing a similar-level course (without any discussion of sleep) in the same department (Psychology) at the same university (UH). Potential changes in sleep patterns across the semester will be examined as well as whether putative changes in sleep can be linked with academic and mental health outcomes.
