Impact of the use of surfactant and Nasal CPAP in the reduction of mortality among very low birth weight pretermbabies in Ile-Ife, south westernNigeria

Nigerian Journal of Paediatrics
ackground: Respiratory distress syndrome causes significant morbidity and death especially among very low birth weight babies. Though the use of CPAP and surfactant have been shown to improve survival, these interventions were scarcely available in

Association between obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) and COVID‐19 severity

Journal of Sleep Research, Volume 34, Issue 2, April 2025.
Summary Obstructive sleep apnea and sleep‐related hypoxia have been associated with higher rates of hospitalization and mortality among patients with Coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID‐19). We further explored the association between obstructive sleep apnea, COVID‐19 severity and related mortality.

Management of neonates with respiratory distress syndrome in resource-limited settings

South African Family Practice
In South Africa, prematurity stands as one of the foremost causes of neonatal mortality. A significant proportion of these deaths occur because of respiratory distress syndrome of prematurity.

Early sleep apnea treatment in stroke (eSATIS) – a multicentre, randomised controlled, rater‐blinded, clinical trial: The association of post‐stroke cognition with sleep‐disordered breathing and its treatment

Journal of Sleep Research, Volume 34, Issue 2, April 2025.
Summary Sleep‐disordered breathing (SDB) is linked to cognitive dysfunction. Although SDB is common in stroke patients, the impact of SDB and its early treatment on cognitive functioning after stroke remains poorly investigated. Therefore, we explored the association between SDB and post‐stroke cognitive functioning, including the impact of early SDB ...

The Effect of Continuous Positive Airway Pressure on Middle Ear Pressure

Southeastern European Medical Journal
Aim of the study: The study investigated the effects of continuous positive airway pressure (CPAP) on middle ear pressure. Methods: Forty-two patients with obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) were assigned to the study group. The patients underwent standard

Does Measurement Site Matter? A Comparison Between Finger, Forehead, and Toe Pulse Oximetry Measurements in Polysomnography

Journal of Sleep Research, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Accurate peripheral blood oxygen saturation (SpO2) measurements are critical for evaluating sleep patients, particularly those with frequent desaturations due to pathological breathing events. We compared synchronised SpO2 measurements obtained from three anatomical sites (finger, forehead and toe) in patients undergoing routine Type 1 ...

The Relative Contributions of Arousal Presence and Arousal Intensity to Post‐Respiratory‐Event Ventilation in Obstructive Sleep Apnea

Journal of Sleep Research, EarlyView.
In obstructive sleep apnea, the breathing after each obstructive event is affected by cortical arousal. Across two cohorts (N = 1781 and N = 67), arousal presence raised post‐event ventilation by 17–30%Eupnea, with each intensity step adding 1–4%Eupnea, independent of chemoreflex drive.
