Age Does Not Affect Respiratory Characteristics in Children With Prader‐Willi Syndrome Before and After Growth Hormone Therapy

open access: yesActa Paediatrica, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Aim Children with Prader‐Willi syndrome (PWS) are at increased risk of both central (CSA) and obstructive sleep apnoea (OSA). Studies examining the effects of growth hormone have focused on older children; however, therapy is often initiated before the age of 2 years.

OSA Initiates Histone Lactylation That Drives PDE4B/FUS/AGT Axis to Pulmonary Hypertension

open access: yesCell Proliferation, EarlyView.
This study illustrates how chronic intermittent hypoxia (CIH) in obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) leads to hypertension via increased oxidative stress and mitochondrial dysfunction in pulmonary artery smooth muscle cells (PASMCs), causing glycolytic dysregulation. Lactate accumulation enhances histone lactylation, upregulating phosphodiesterase 4B (PDE4B),

Non‐epileptic paroxysmal events in Rett syndrome: A systematic review of case‐based and observational evidence

open access: yesDevelopmental Medicine &Child Neurology, EarlyView.
This systematic review identifies and categorizes the spectrum of non‐epileptic paroxysmal events in Rett syndrome. Respiratory disturbances, behavioural episodes, and motor events were the most commonly reported. Improving clinician awareness and diagnostic clarity is key to avoiding unnecessary treatment and enhancing quality of life for individuals ...

Impact of a Case‐Based Sleep Apnoea Education on the Knowledge, Attitudes and Confidence of Dental Hygiene Students—A Multicentre Intervention Study

open access: yesInternational Journal of Dental Hygiene, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Objective This pilot study aimed to explore knowledge, attitudes and confidence levels of Obstructive Sleep Apnoea (OSA) before and after case‐based education among dental hygiene students. Moreover, to give an international perspective, this study included students from the US and Scandinavia. Methods A longitudinal multicentre study assessed

Prevalence of Dental Caries in Persons With or Without Long‐Term Experience of Positive Airway Pressure‐Treated Obstructive Sleep Apnoea

open access: yesInternational Journal of Dental Hygiene, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Oral dryness is common in persons with untreated obstructive sleep apnoea (OSA) as well as in those using positive airway pressure (PAP). OSA with or without PAP treatment could therefore be a risk factor of dental caries. Objectives To describe and compare the prevalence of dental caries among persons with or without PAP‐treated OSA.

The effects of simulated obstructive apnea and hypopnea on arrhythmic potential in healthy subjects [PDF]

open access: yes, 2018
Preliminary evidence supports an association between OSA and cardiac dysrhythmias. Negative intrathoracic pressure, as occurring during OSA, may provoke cardiac dysrhythmias.

Examining the Influence of Glycemic Management During Sleep on Sleep‐Related Bruxism: A Pilot Study

open access: yesJournal of Oral Rehabilitation, EarlyView.
Stabilisation of blood glucose levels during sleep may improve sleep‐related bruxism (SRB), particularly by suppressing sympathetic nervous system activity. Furthermore, it is expected that these findings will lead to the establishment of new treatment methods for SRB in sleep dentistry.

Impulse Configuration in Hypoglossal Nerve Stimulation in Obstructive Sleep Apnea: The Effect of Modifying Pulse Width and Frequency

open access: yesNeuromodulation: Technology at the Neural Interface, EarlyView., 2021
Abstract Objectives Hypoglossal nerve stimulation is an effective treatment option for obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) in positive airway pressure therapy failure. Nonetheless, data regarding the functional effect of modifying stimulation parameters within each electrode configuration are limited.

Case reports of oral appliance therapy on three young adults with Down syndrome and OSA

open access: yesJournal of Prosthodontics, EarlyView.
Abstract Patients with Down syndrome (DS) have a high incidence of obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) due to hypotonia, weight, underdeveloped midface, and relative macroglossia. This article presents three cases of young adults with DS, who were diagnosed with mild to severe OSA and unable to tolerate positive airway pressure therapy.

Metrology of two wearable sleep trackers against polysomnography in patients with sleep complaints

open access: yesJournal of Sleep Research, Volume 34, Issue 2, April 2025.
Summary Sleep trackers are used widely by patients with sleep complaints, however their metrological validation is often poor and relies on healthy subjects. We assessed the metrological validity of two commercially available sleep trackers (Withings Activité/Fitbit Alta HR) through a prospective observational monocentric study, in adult patients ...
