Special Issue on Sleep Disorders

Sleep disorders are characterized by abnormal sleep patterns (such as snoring, insomnia and sleep apnea). Most people occasionally experience sleeping problems due to stress, a health problem, or other factors. When sleep problems are a regular occurrence and interfere with daily life, they may indicate a sleeping disorder. Sleep disorders are becoming increasingly common nowadays.

In this special issue, we intend to invite front-line researchers and authors to submit original research and review articles on exploring Sleep Disorders. Potential topics include, but are not limited to:

• Sleep apnea
• Sleep paralysis
• Sleepwalking
• Hypersomnia
• Insomnia disorder
• Night terror
• Parasomnias
• Sleep hygiene
• Polysomnography
• Sleep disorder in the elderly

Authors should read over the journal’s For Authors carefully before submission. Prospective authors should submit an electronic copy of their complete manuscript through the journal’s Paper Submission System.

Please kindly specify the “Special Issue” under your manuscript title. The research field “Special Issue - Sleep Disorders” should be selected during your submission.
