Both the Duration of Apnea and the Number of Apneas Are Important in Obstructive Sleep Apnea Syndrome [PDF]
Sleep Medicine Research, 2020 Apnea and hypopnea are generally considered to be equivalent in calculating the apnea-hypopnea index (AHI) regardless of their kind and duration. However, we supposed that apnea and hypopnea could differ in their effects on arousal and oxygen desaturation, and that the duration of an occurrence of apnea or hypopnea could also be important.

Speech and Language Disorders Associated With 7q31 Deletions Implicating FOXP2
American Journal of Medical Genetics Part A, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Some 7q31 deletions encompass FOXP2, a gene long associated with speech and language disorders. Intragenic pathogenic FOXP2 variants cause FOXP2‐related speech and language disorder, which has been well characterized in the literature. Conversely, the phenotype associated with 7q31 deletions is neglected.

Trisomy 5p: Long Recognized, Rarely Published‐ Three New Cases and Review of the Literature
American Journal of Medical Genetics Part A, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Complete trisomy 5p is a rare chromosomal disorder caused by a duplication of the short arm of chromosome 5. Current data suggest that complete trisomy 5p presents as a distinct clinical syndrome including but not limited to seizures, developmental delays, facial dysmorphisms, failure to thrive, and recurrent respiratory infections.

American Journal of Medical Genetics Part A, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Nizon‐Isidor syndrome is a rare disorder caused by heterozygous variants in MED12L, with only eight documented cases in the literature. Here, we present three additional cases of this syndrome. Proband 1 was a 7‐year‐old female who presented with developmental delay, right‐leg hemihypertrophy, laryngeal cleft, esotropia, abnormal skin ...

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 ...
