Both the Duration of Apnea and the Number of Apneas Are Important in Obstructive Sleep Apnea Syndrome [PDF]

open access: yesSleep Medicine Research, 2020
Apnea and hypopnea are generally considered to be equivalent in calculating the apnea-hypopnea index (AHI) regardless of their kind and duration. However, we supposed that apnea and hypopnea could differ in their effects on arousal and oxygen desaturation, and that the duration of an occurrence of apnea or hypopnea could also be important.

Sleep Apnea [PDF]

open access: yesSleep Disorders, 2012
More has been learned about sleep in the last 60 years than in the preceding 6000 years, to paraphrase one sleep researcher, and sleep apnea is an area in which knowledge growth has been particularly exponential. In the last several decades, sleep specialists have learned how to study sleep, subdividing it into stages based on the sleep-related changes

Cerebral Oxygenation during Apnea in Preterm Infants: Effects of Accompanying Peripheral Oxygen Desaturation [PDF]

open access: yesNeonatal Medicine, 2021
Purpose Premature infants have immature respiratory control and cerebral autoregulation. We aimed to investigate changes in cerebral oxygenation during apnea with and without peripheral oxygen desaturation in premature infants.

Neural bases for the genesis and CO2 therapy of periodic Cheyne–Stokes breathing in neonatal male connexin-36 knockout mice

open access: yesFrontiers in Neuroscience, 2023
Periodic Cheyne–Stokes breathing (CSB) oscillating between apnea and crescendo–decrescendo hyperpnea is the most common central apnea. Currently, there is no proven therapy for CSB, probably because the fundamental pathophysiological question of how the ...

Apnea of Prematurity [PDF]

open access: yesPediatrics, 2008
Apnea of prematurity is one of the most common diagnoses in the NICU. Despite the frequency of apnea of prematurity, it is unknown whether recurrent apnea, bradycardia, and hypoxemia in preterm infants are harmful. Research into the development of respiratory control in immature animals and preterm infants has facilitated our understanding of the ...
