Asthma outcomes improve with continuous positive airway pressure for obstructive sleep apnea
Continuous positive airway pressure (CPAP) in asthma patients with concomitant obstructive sleep apnea syndrome (OSAS) seems to have a favorable impact on asthma, but data are inconsistent due to methodological limitations of previous studies.

Addressing Barriers to Continuous Positive Airway Pressure Therapy in Veterans [PDF]
Problem. Adherence to continuous positive airway pressure (CPAP) therapy for obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) is about 30-60%. There are many risks of untreated OSA including poor sleep quality, decreased cognitive function, impaired memory, and ...

Cardiovascular outcomes of continuous positive airway pressure therapy for obstructive sleep apnea.
Obstructive sleep apnea is a common disorder with increased risk for cardiovascular morbidity and mortality. The first choice of treatment of obstructive sleep apnea is continuous positive airway pressure, which reduces excessive daytime sleepiness and ...

An optimized perfusate for enhanced rat ex vivo lung perfusion and lung transplant models
We explored a low‐cost and efficient perfusate composition for use in rat ex vivo lung perfusion (EVLP) and lung transplant models. This perfusate demonstrates better biocompatibility, likely due to a reduction in immune responses associated with high doses of xenogenic proteins, resulting in less lung injury posttransplantation.

Treatment of obstructive sleep-disordered breathing with positive airway pressure systems
Positive airway pressure systems are widely used to treat patients with moderate-to-severe obstructive sleep-disordered breathing. The application of stable continuous positive airway pressure (CPAP) via the nose (nasal CPAP) has been the mainstay of ...

Computational Analysis of Inspiratory and Expiratory Flow in the Lung Airway [PDF]
Inspiratory and expiratory flow in a multi-generation pig lung airway was numerically studied at a peak tracheal flow rate corresponding to a Reynolds number of 1150. The model was validated by comparing velocity distributions with previous measurements for a simple airway bifurcation.

Comparison of Auto-adjusting and Fixed Level Continuous Positive Airway Pressure Therapy in Patients with Mild to Moderate Obstructive Sleep Apnoea Hypopnoea Syndrome [PDF]
Obstructive Sleep Apnoea Hypopnoea syndrome (OSAHS) is a potentially serious medical disorder associated with increased morbidity and mortality. It is estimated to affect 4% of males and 2% of females between the ages of forty and sixty. Nasal continuous

Automated Detection of Isolated REM Sleep Behavior Disorder Using Computer Vision
Objective Isolated rapid eye movement (REM) sleep behavior disorder (iRBD) is, in most cases, an early stage of Parkinson's disease or related disorders. Diagnosis requires an overnight video‐polysomnogram (vPSG), however, even for sleep experts, interpreting vPSG data is challenging.
