25. Night- or shift-work sleep schedule which causes the major sleep period to be during the day, or planned travel across more than 1 time zone during the anticipated enrollment period
26. Employment as a commercial driver or operator of hazardous equipment.
27. Typically smoking more than 10 cigarettes or 2 cigars per day (or equivalent Vaping), or inability to abstain from smoking during overnight PSG visits.
