Serum bilirubin and the risk of chronic obstructive pulmonary disease exacerbations
Respiratory Research, 2017 Background Bilirubin is a potent anti-oxidant and higher serum concentrations of bilirubin have been associated with better lung function, slower lung function decline, and lower incidence of chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD).

Peri-Ictal Autonomic Control of Cardiac Function and Seizure-Induced Death
Frontiers in Neuroscience, 2022 Sudden unexpected death in epilepsy (SUDEP) accounts for the deaths of 8–17% of patients with epilepsy. Although the mechanisms of SUDEP are unknown, one proposed mechanism is abnormal control of the heart by the autonomic nervous system (ANS).

SomnNET: An SpO2 Based Deep Learning Network for Sleep Apnea Detection in Smartwatches [PDF]
, 2021 The abnormal pause or rate reduction in breathing is known as the sleep-apnea hypopnea syndrome and affects the quality of sleep of an individual. A novel method for the detection of sleep apnea events (pause in breathing) from peripheral oxygen saturation (SpO2) signals obtained from wearable devices is discussed in this paper.

Identification of sleep apnea events using discrete wavelet transform of respiration, ECG and accelerometer signals [PDF]
, 2013 Sleep apnea is a common sleep disorder in which patient sleep patterns are disrupted due to recurrent pauses in breathing or by instances of abnormally low breathing. Current gold standard tests for the detection of apnea events are costly and have the
