Objective To explore the relationship between sleep disorders and polysomnography parameters and serum 5-hydroxytryptamine(5-HT)levels in Parkinson's disease patients.Methods 80 Parkinson's disease patients admitted of Sir Run Run Shaw Hospital,Zhejiang University School of Medicine from July 2021 to June 2023 were collected,and based on the Pittsburgh sleep quality index(PSQI)score divided them into study group(n=46,PSQI>10 points)and control group(n=34,PSQI≤10 points).Overnight polysomnography monitoring on two groups of patients was conducted,serum 5-HT levels were detected,polysomnography parameters and serum 5-HT levels between two groups were compared,and the correlation between sleep disorders and polysomnography parameters and serum 5-HT levels were analyzed.Results The total sleep time of study group was significantly shorter than that of control greup,sleep efficiency,and minimum blood oxygen saturation of study group were significantly lower than those of control group(P<0.05).The serum 5-HT levels in study group were significantly lower than those in control group(P<0.05).Correlation analysis showed that the PSQI score was negatively correlated with total sleep time,sleep efficiency,minimum blood oxygen saturation,and serum 5-HT levels(P<0.05).Conclusion Sleep disorders in Parkinson's disease patients are associated with decreased total sleep time,sleep efficiency,minimum blood oxygen saturation and serum 5-HT levels.

OBJECTIVE:
To investigate the effect of obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) on different sleep stages, and the relationship between N3 stage of non-rapid eye movement sleep and respiratory abnormal events.
METHODS:
A total of 188 adult patients who underwent overnight polysomnography(PSG)monitoring in Sir Run Run shaw Hospital of Zhejiang University from June 24th to December 26th 2019 were enrolled in the study. OSA patients were classified into 3 groups (mild, moderate and severe) according to the apnea-hypopnea index (AHI). PSG data, AHI and the lowest SPO in each stage of sleep were compared among three groups.
RESULTS:
There was no significant difference in total sleep time and sleep efficiency among patients with different severity of OSA (all >0.05). The proportion of N3 stage in moderate and severe OSA groups were significantly smaller than that in mild OSA group (all <0.05). The proportion of N3 stage in severe OSA group was also smaller than that in moderate OSA group (<0.05). In addition, severe OSA group had a longer latency of N3 stage than mild and moderate OSA groups (all <0.05). The latency of N3 stage in moderate OSA group was longer than that in mild OSA group (<0.05). The AHI in N3 stage was markedly lower than that in other sleep stages (all <0.01), regardless of the severity of OSA. Supine AHI in N3 stage in mild and moderate groups was significantly lower than that in N1, N2 and rapid eye movement (REM) stages (all <0.01). Supine AHI in N3 stage in severe group was also lower than that in N2 and REM stages (<0.05 or <0.01). The lowest SPO in N3 stage was significantly higher than that in N1, N2 and REM stages (<0.05 or <0.01), regardless of the severity of OSA.
CONCLUSIONS
s The proportion of N3 stage is lower in OSA patients, and N3 stage has less sleep respiratory events than non-N3 stages. The results suggest that the increased N3 stage proportion may indicate less severity of OSA.

【Objective】 To evaluate the effect of adding platelet GPⅡb/Ⅲa receptor inhibitor (A adjuvant) into the Batroxobin cup (A cup) on the accuracy of the thromboelastogram (TEG) platelet aggregation function test using the functional fibrinogen (function fiber cup) test results as a standard. 【Methods】 From December 2019 to May 2020, 100 (persons) whole blood samples were collected from patients who visited the Department of Neurology, Department of Cardiology, Department of General Affairs and Department of Rehabilitation of our hospital for TEG platelet aggregation function test, and the blood standard samples were divided into MA <25 mm group (n=50) and MA≥25 mm group (n=50) according to the A-cup blood clot intensity (MA) value (mm) measured by TEG, the two groups were subdivided into A cup group (n=50, respectively), A auxiliary group (adding A auxiliary in A cup) (n=50, respectively), and functional fiber cup group (n=50, respectively), each subgroup was tested once again. The linear correlation, platelet inhibition and the consistency of drug efficacy interpretation results in platelet Adenosine diphosphate (ADP) and Arachidonic acid (AA) pathway respectively between the three subgroups were compared. 【Results】 (1) In the MA<25mm group, the inhibition rates of ADP and AA pathway in platelet of A cup, A adjuvant and functional fibrin cup subgroups were (32.00±17.44) % vs (30.19±17.44) % vs (30.07±16.18) %, (24.3±33.53) % vs (22.53±30.9) % vs (22.37±31.2) %, respectively (R2 were all>0.975); (2) In the MA≥25 mm group, the inhibition rates of ADP and AA pathway in platelet of A cup, A adjuvant and functional fibrin cup subgroups were (34.34±33.59) % vs (18.45±24.42) % vs (18.01±24.33) %, (23.19±39.33) % vs (8.48±21.75) % vs (8.31±21.7) % ( R2 between the A cup group and the A adjuvant group were all<0.8, and R2 between the A adjuvant group and the functional fibrinogen cup group were all >0.975); (3)Take the test result of the functional fibrinogen cup as the standard, the correct rates of ADP and AA pathway drug efficacy interpretation were 82% (41/50) vs 100% (50/50) and 84% (42/50) vs 100% (50/50) respectively (P<0.05) between the A-cup group and the A adjuvant group, while the interpretation results of drug efficacy of the two pathway were consistent between the A adjuvant group and the functional fibrin cup group (P>0.05). 【Conclusion】 Adding A adjuvant to TEG platelet aggregation function test can effectively inhibit non-specifically activated platelets in the A cup in the detection of platelet aggregation function, truly reflect the function of fibrinogen and improve the accuracy of platelet inhibition rate.
