  1. Data are mean ± SD. Statistics were performed using analysis of variance.
  2. NI, non-insomnia; INH, insomniac with no hypnotic use; HNI, hypnotic user with no insomnia complaints; HI, hypnotic user with insomnia complaints; ANOVA, analysis of variance; WASO, wake after sleep onset; REM, rapid eye movement; N1, stage 1 non-rapid eye movement sleep; N2, stage 2 non-rapid eye movement sleep; N3, stage 3 non-rapid eye movement sleep; R, rapid eye movement sleep; AHI, apnea–hypopnea index.
  3. The post-hoc analysis was performed using Bonferroni test.
