Table 1 Sleep-related parameters in 161 consecutive patients with first-ever stroke included in the "Sagrat Cor Hospital of Barcelona Stroke Registry"[5]

Data	Transient ischemic attack (n = 39)	Ischemic stroke (n = 112)	Hemorrhagic stroke (n = 10)	Total (n = 161)
Age, yr, mean (SD)	67.9 (10.1)	72.5 (8.9)	73 (10.5)	72 (9)
Body mass index, kg/m², mean (SD)	27.3 (4.6)	26.2 (3.7)	26.7 (2.6)	26.6 (3.9)
Epworth sleepiness scale, score, mean (SD)	47 (3.3)	4.9 (3.3)	4.3 (2.1)	4.8 (3.3)
AHI, mean (SD)	19.4 (16.7)	21.5 (15.7)	25 (11.9)	21.2 (15.7)
OAI, mean (SD)	5.9 (10.2)	3.9 (7.8)	5.4 (6.7)	4.5 (8.4)
CAI, mean (SD)	3.32 (7.9)^a	5.9 (10.1)	11.1 (15.1)^a	5.6 (10.1)
Cheyne-Stokes breathing pattern, n (%)	8 (20.5)	31 (27.7)	3 (30)	42 (26.1)
AHI, n (%)
> 10	24 (61.5)	83 (74.1)	9 (90)	116 (72)
> 30	10 (25.6)	31 (27.7)	4 (40)	45 (27.9)
CT90%, mean (SD)	8.2 (13.1)	8.1 (17.8)	5.7 (7.1)	7.8 (15.7)

CAI: Central apnea index; AHI: Apnea-hypopnea index; OAI: Obstructive apnea index; CT90%: Percentage of time below 90% arterial oxygen saturation; TIA: Transient ischemic attack.

^aP = 0.03 between CAI of TIA patients and CAI of patients with hemorrhagic stroke.
