Sleep Disorders: Advances in the Diagnosis and Treatment

Dear Colleagues,

In the area of sleep disorders, prior studies consistently support two notions: (1) comorbid sleep disorders are highly prevalent among clinical populations, and (2) a history of sleep disturbance can increase the risk of developing a clinical disorder. It is therefore critical that we continue to investigate the role of sleep disorders in overall patient health. This Special Issue aims to collate state-of-the-art research on the diagnosis and treatment of sleep disorders. In general, we encourage basic, translational, and clinical research that has the potential to inform advances in the diagnosis and treatment of sleep disorders, and more specifically, those studies that may have implications for better understanding the impact of sleep on physical health. Original articles, reviews, and communications are welcome.  We look forward to receiving your contributions. You may contact the Guest Editor, Dr. Ivan Vargas, if you are interested in submitting to this Special Issue or have any questions.
