An Investigation of Sleep Macro‐ and Microarchitecture by APOE Genotype

Annals of Neurology, EarlyView.
Objectives Apolipoprotein E ε4 (APOE ε4), a robust genetic risk factor for Alzheimer's disease (AD) is associated with functional connectivity deficits and amyloid pathology in brain regions involved in sleep regulation. Thus, alterations in sleep architecture may be one pathway through which ε4 contributes to Alzheimer's disease vulnerability. However,

Rethinking brachycephaly: Anatomical implications and health considerations in lagomorphs

The Anatomical Record, EarlyView.
Abstract Brachycephaly in domestic rabbits is increasingly perceived by welfare organizations as associated with significant health complications, particularly oral pathologies. Despite this perception, comparative anatomical research into rabbit brachycephaly is limited compared to that of dogs and cats, compelling an in‐depth examination of its ...

Sleep Assessment in Patients with Inner Ear Functional Disorders: A Prospective Cohort Study Investigating Sleep Quality Through Polygraphy Recordings

Audiology Research
Background/Objectives: The vestibulo-respiratory reflex regulates the tension of the respiratory muscles, which prevents apneas and awakenings during sleep. This study aimed to determine whether functional deficits in the inner ear disturb sleep quality.

Effects of oropharyngeal neuromuscular stimulation on the volumetric enlarged and reduced tongue base in minipigs

The Anatomical Record, EarlyView.
Abstract Hypoglossal nerve or tongue protruding muscle stimulation is a current treatment option for obstructive sleep apnea. Thus, the present study analyzed 3D deformations of the volumetric enlarged and reduced tongue base upon oropharyngeal neuromuscular stimulation.

INTERMEDIATE PHENOTYPES OF OBSTRUCTIVE SLEEP APNEA/HYPOPNEA SYNDROME

Неврология, нейропсихиатрия, психосоматика, 2016
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 ...

Pentoxifylline dose finding trial in preterm neonates with suspected late onset sepsis (PTX‐trial)

British Journal of Clinical Pharmacology, EarlyView.
Aim The aim of this study (PTX‐trial) is to determine the optimal dose of pentoxifylline (PTX) in preterm neonates (gestational age < 30 weeks) with (suspected) late onset sepsis (LONS). Methods The PTX‐trial is a prospective multicentre open‐label sequential dose‐optimization study with an adapted continual reassessment method.
