CONCLUSIONS: We speculate that sexsomnias originate from CPG in the brainstem and spinal cord, as opposed to the cerebral cortex. The lack of involvement of cerebral motor control is further substantiated by amnesia for sexsomnia events. The implications of this data provide fundamental new clues about the mechanism of sexsomnias with critical forensic implications.

CONCLUSIONS: In IRBD, the most common manifestations in REM sleep are simple minor movements and vocalizations of mild intensity. Complex movements are observed during REM sleep in most patients but are much less frequent than simple minor and major motor events. These findings should be considered for the routine diagnosis of IRBD when reviewing the V-PSG studies.

A scoping review was carried out with the aim of mapping the existing literature on the association between sleep/awake bruxism and primary headache (migraine and tension headache) in children and adolescents. This scoping review followed the method proposed by Arksey & O'Malley and the Joanna Briggs Institute Manual for Evidence Synthesis and was reported following the Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Reviews and Meta-Analyses-Extension for Scoping Reviews (PRISMA-ScR). The methods were...

To evaluate the association between definitive sleep bruxism and primary headaches and to analyze other variables that may also be associated with definitive sleep bruxism. A descriptive study was carried out with a sample of adults with a medical indication for polysomnography in Florianópolis, Brazil. Data were collected in three phases: questionnaires, physical examinations and polysomnography. Pearson's chi-square test and unadjusted and adjusted binary regressions were carried out using the...
