The Bidirectional Relationship Between Obstructive Sleep Apnea and Metabolic Disease [PDF]

, 2018
Obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) is a common sleep disorder, effecting 17% of the total population and 40–70% of the obese population (1, 2). Multiple studies have identified OSA as a critical risk factor for the development of obesity, diabetes, and ...

The Role of Impulse Oscillometry in Evaluating Disease Severity and Predicting the Airway Reversibility in Patients With Bronchiectasis

Frontiers in Medicine, 2022
BackgroundImpulse oscillometry (IOS) can be used to evaluate airway impedance in patients with obstructive airway diseases. Previous studies have demonstrated that IOS parameters differ between patients with bronchiectasis and healthy controls.

D-4F, an apoA-1 mimetic, decreases airway hyperresponsiveness, inflammation, and oxidative stress in a murine model of asthma[S]

Journal of Lipid Research, 2011
Asthma is characterized by oxidative stress and inflammation of the airways. Although proinflammatory lipids are involved in asthma, therapies targeting them remain lacking. Ac-DW F KA F YDKVAEK F KEA F NH2 (4F) is an apolipoprotein (apo)A-I mimetic that

Regulation of eosinophilia and allergic airway inflammation by the glycan-binding protein galectin-1 [PDF]

, 2016
Galectin-1 (Gal-1), a glycan-binding protein with broad antiinflammatory activities, functions as a proresolving mediator in autoimmune and chronic inflammatory disorders. However, its role in allergic airway inflammation has not yet been elucidated.

Therapeutic alternatives with CPAP in obstructive sleep apnea [PDF]

, 2019
Obstructive Sleep Apnea (OSA), characterized by airflow cessation (apnea) or reduction (hypopnea) due to repeated pharyngeal obstructions during sleep, causes frequent disruption of sleep and hypoxic events. The condition is linked to many adverse health
