| Abstract | BACKGROUND: Assessing sleep-disordered breathing (SDB) in aged or disabled populations is difficult. AIMS: To validate a multivariable apnea risk prediction index (MAPI) in stroke survivors and estimate SDB prevalence (apnea-hypopnea index >or=10) in a community-based stroke cohort. METHODS: Self-reported sleep apnea symptoms, demographic and anthropometric data were obtained from a hospital-based (SCOPES II, n = 152) and a community-based (NEMESIS, n = 431) cohort at about 3 years after stroke. Logistic regression models for prediction of SDB using the MAPI were validated with home-based nocturnal polygraphic data recordings obtained in 74 SCOPES II participants. RESULTS: NEMESIS subjects (median age 76, females 45%) were older than SCOPES II subjects (median age 70, females 42%). SDB prevalence was 44.9% in the nocturnal polygraphy subset, and estimated as 44.1% (SCOPES II) and 50.6% (NEMESIS) using a modified MAPI. CONCLUSION: The MAPI can be reliably used in stroke cohorts and SDB affects about half of chronic stroke survivors. |

National Digital Library of India (NDLI) is a virtual repository of learning resources which is not just a repository with search/browse facilities but provides a host of services for the learner community. It is sponsored and mentored by Ministry of Education, Government of India, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT). Filtered and federated searching is employed to facilitate focused searching so that learners can find the right resource with least effort and in minimum time. NDLI provides user group-specific services such as Examination Preparatory for School and College students and job aspirants. Services for Researchers and general learners are also provided. NDLI is designed to hold content of any language and provides interface support for 10 most widely used Indian languages. It is built to provide support for all academic levels including researchers and life-long learners, all disciplines, all popular forms of access devices and differently-abled learners. It is designed to enable people to learn and prepare from best practices from all over the world and to facilitate researchers to perform inter-linked exploration from multiple sources. It is developed, operated and maintained from Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur.

NDLI is a conglomeration of freely available or institutionally contributed or donated or publisher managed contents. Almost all these contents are hosted and accessed from respective sources. The responsibility for authenticity, relevance, completeness, accuracy, reliability and suitability of these contents rests with the respective organization and NDLI has no responsibility or liability for these. Every effort is made to keep the NDLI portal up and running smoothly unless there are some unavoidable technical issues.
Ministry of Education, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT), has sponsored and funded the National Digital Library of India (NDLI) project.
