Fig. 1 Schematic illustrations for the assessments of jaw motor events during sleep. (A) In portable EMG recording, EMG events are detected based on the algorithms. An schematic example for burst detection using amplitude criteria is shown. Detection algorithms differ between the laboratories. (B) In PSG recording, EMG events can be identified by the audio-video observation (shaded). Then, specific motor activities are selected among non-specific ones.
