Interfering with sleep apnea [PDF]
AbstractThe effects of electromagnetic interference have been hiding in plain sight for millennia and are now being applied to the non-invasive stimulation of deep tissues. In the article by Missey et al., the effect of non-invasive stimulation of the hypoglossal nerve by an interference envelope of interfering carrier waves is examined in mice and ...

Quantification of Sleep Fragmentation Through the Analysis of Sleep-Stage Transitions [PDF]
We introduce new quantitative approaches to study sleep-stage transitions with the goal of addressing the two following questions: (i) Can the new approaches provide more information on the structure of sleep-stage transitions? (ii) How does sleep fragmentation in patients with sleep apnea affect the structure of sleep-stage transitions?

Pediatric post-concussion bradypnea and hypopnea treated with hypertonic saline: a case report [PDF]
Mild traumatic brain injury (TBI) is defined as a Glasgow Coma Scale score of 13-15, and includes concussion, a broad constellation of clinical findings.

Reproduction of hypopnea phenomenon using a physical and numerical model [PDF]
Obstructive sleep apnea syndrome is now considered as a major health care topic. An in-vitro setup which reproduces and simplifies upper airway geometry has been the basis to study the fluid/walls interaction that leads to an apnea. It consists of a rigid pipe (the pharynx) in contact with a deformable latex cylinder filled with water (the tongue). Air

INTERMEDIATE PHENOTYPES OF OBSTRUCTIVE SLEEP APNEA/HYPOPNEA SYNDROME
Obstructive sleep apnea/hypopnea syndrome (OSAHS) is the most common type of sleep apnea. OSAHS is due to upper airway obstruction. This condition is characterized by repetitive pauses in breathing during sleep despite the efforts of the respiratory ...

Background and Aim: Obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) is one of the most common sleep disorders that, despite the high prevalence, most people are unaware of it. The reason for this disorder is obstruction of the respiratory tract, which reduces blood oxygen

Accurate Radar-Based Detection of Sleep Apnea Using Overlapping Time-Interval Averaging [PDF]
Radar-based respiratory measurement is a promising tool for the noncontact detection of sleep apnea. Our team has reported that apnea events can be accurately detected using the statistical characteristics of the amplitude of respiratory displacement. However, apnea and hypopnea events are often followed by irregular breathing, reducing the detection ...

Obstructive Sleep Apnoea: a dental perspective [PDF]
Obstructive sleep apnoea (OSA) is regarded as a potentially life threatening breathing disorder characterised by periodic cessation of air intake during sleep.
