Clinical significance of obstructive sleep apnea in patients with acute coronary syndrome in relation to diabetes status. [PDF]
Objective: The prognostic significance of obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) in patients with acute coronary syndrome (ACS) according to diabetes mellitus (DM) status remains unclear. We aimed to elucidate the association of OSA with subsequent cardiovascular

The influence of sleep apnea syndrome and intermittent hypoxia in carotid adventitial vasa vasorum [PDF]
Subjects with sleep apnea-hypopnea syndrome (SAHS) show an increased carotid intima-media thickness. However, no data exist about earlier markers of atheromatous disease, such as the proliferation and expansion of the adventitial vasa vasorum (VV) to the

Apnea‐Hypopnea Event Duration Predicts Mortality in Men and Women in the Sleep Heart Health Study
Rationale: Obstructive sleep apnea is a risk factor for mortality, but its diagnostic metric—the apnea‐hypopnea index—is a poor risk predictor. The apnea‐hypopnea index does not capture the range of physiological variability within and between patients ...

Epiglottis Collapse in Individuals With Obstructive Sleep Apnea
ABSTRACT Objective Obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) is a common sleep disorder characterized by repeated upper airway collapse during sleep. The epiglottis, often overlooked in conventional assessments, has emerged as a site of significant obstruction in OSA.

Chinese Guidelines for the Diagnosis and Surgical Treatment of Adult Obstructive Sleep Apnea (2024)
ABSTRACT Obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) is a common chronic disorder characterized by abnormal breathing during sleeping. OSA can damage various organs throughout the body and is burdensome, both socially and economically. Moreover, as OSA has been increasingly studied in recent years, new evidence‐based guidelines for its diagnosis and surgical ...

Effects of adenotonsillectomy on plasma inflammatory biomarkers in obese children with obstructive sleep apnea: A community-based study. [PDF]
BackgroundObesity and obstructive sleep apnea syndrome (OSA) are highly prevalent and frequently overlapping conditions in children that lead to systemic inflammation, the latter being implicated in the various end-organ morbidities associated with these

Reproducibility and predictors of the apnea hypopnea index across multiple nights
Background: Attended polysomnography (PSG) is the standard diagnostic test for sleep apnea (SA). However, due to internight variability in SA, a single night PSG may not accurately reflect the true severity of SA. Although internight variability is a well-known phenomenon, its root causes have not been fully elucidated. The objective of this

The Impact of BMI on the Differences Between Drug‐Induced Sleep Endoscopy and Müller Maneuver
ABSTRACT Purpose To explore the differences in drug‐induced sleep endoscopy (DISE) and Müller Maneuver (MM) results and study the impact of body mass index (BMI) on these differences. Study Design Prospective observational study. Methods Forty patients with OSAHS were included in this study.

Volumetric evaluation of pharyngeal segments in obstructive sleep apnea patients,
Introduction Obstructive sleep apnea occurs by recurrent collapse of the upper airway during sleep, resulting in total (apnea) or partial (hypopnea) reduction of the airflow and has intimate relation with changes in the upper airway.
