Body weight and obstructive sleep apnea: a mathematical relationship between body mass index and apnea-hypopnea index in veterans. [PDF]

J Clin Sleep Med, 2022
A high body mass index (BMI) is a risk factor for obstructive sleep apnea. However, to our knowledge there is no reported equation that quantifies the relationship between weight, as measured by BMI, and apnea severity, as assessed by the apnea-hypopnea ...

Effect of Weight Loss on Upper Airway Anatomy and the Apnea Hypopnea Index: The Importance of Tongue Fat.

American Journal of Respiratory and Critical Care Medicine, 2020
RATIONALE Obesity is the primary risk factor for sleep apnea (OSA). Tongue fat is increased in obese persons with OSA, and may explain the relationship between obesity and OSA. Weight loss improves OSA, but the mechanism is unknown.

Effect of Multilevel Upper Airway Surgery vs Medical Management on the Apnea-Hypopnea Index and Patient-Reported Daytime Sleepiness Among Patients With Moderate or Severe Obstructive Sleep Apnea: The SAMS Randomized Clinical Trial.

Journal of the American Medical Association (JAMA), 2020
Importance Many adults with obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) use device treatments inadequately and remain untreated. Objective To determine whether combined palatal and tongue surgery to enlarge or stabilize the upper airway is an effective treatment for

Wearable monitoring of sleep-disordered breathing: estimation of the apnea–hypopnea index using wrist-worn reflective photoplethysmography

Scientific Reports, 2020
A large part of the worldwide population suffers from obstructive sleep apnea (OSA), a disorder impairing the restorative function of sleep and constituting a risk factor for several cardiovascular pathologies.

Pulmonary artery hemodynamics are associated with duration of nocturnal desaturation but not apnea-hypopnea index

Journal of Clinical Sleep Medicine (JCSM), 2020
Sleep-disordered breathing and nocturnal hypoxia are prevalent among patients with precapillary pulmonary hypertension (PAH). The rationale for these associations remains unclear and these relationships have not been well studied in other forms of ...
