The Effects of Nasal and Multi‐Level Upper Airway Surgery on Upper Airway Collapsibility and Non‐Anatomical Endotypes in People With Obstructive Sleep Apnoea—A Pilot Study

Journal of Sleep Research, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Nasal breathing is the preferred route of breathing during sleep. Indeed, nasal blockage can cause obstructive sleep apnoea (OSA) in otherwise healthy people. Whilst multi‐level pharyngeal surgery reduces OSA severity, efficacy varies and changes in OSA pathophysiology post‐surgery have not been well characterised.

Risk Factors for Motor Vehicle Accidents in Obstructive Sleep Apnoea Patients With Long‐Term Continuous Positive Airway Pressure Therapy

Journal of Sleep Research, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT In this study, we aim to establish risk factors for sleepiness while driving, motor‐vehicle accidents and near miss incidents in obstructive sleep apnoea patients with long‐term continuous positive airway pressure (CPAP) therapy. We performed a cross‐sectional study on 1327 consecutive CPAP‐treated obstructive sleep apnoea (OSA) patients who ...

Impaired Alertness Correlates With Chronic Anxiety: A Prospective Tertiary University Centre Cohort

Journal of Sleep Research, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The Maintenance of Wakefulness Test (MWT) is a widely used objective measure of daytime alertness, especially in patients with sleep disorders at increased risk of accidents. Anxiety and depression are common in this population and may influence subjective sleepiness and objective alertness.

Trial Protocol: A Randomised, Controlled Cross‐Over Trial Evaluating the Digital Sleep Revolution Diagnostic‐Therapeutic Pathway for Obstructive Sleep Apnoea

Journal of Sleep Research, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Obstructive sleep apnoea (OSA) is common, but current diagnostic pathways rely on single‐night assessment and the apnoea–hypopnoea index. Both are limited for assessment of variability and linking only weakly to symptoms, comorbidity and treatment response.

A Call to Action: Challenges and Future Directions for Sleep Health in Europe

Journal of Sleep Research, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Sleep is fundamental to physical, cognitive, and emotional health and wellbeing. However, it is increasingly threatened by environmental, social, technological, and cultural pressures. To identify key priorities for improving sleep health across Europe, the European Sleep Research Society (ESRS)'s Equality, Diversity and Inclusion Committee ...

Obstructive Sleep Apnea Syndrome. Part III. Therapy

Česká Stomatologie a Praktické Zubní Lékařství, 2005
OSAS therapy can have the form of either conservative or surgical treatment. The conservative therapy, applied in mild OSAS, consists in reducing the patient's wieght, introducing the correct sleep hygiene and using mandibular protractors.

Lifestyle modification in atrial fibrillation: Mechanisms, phenotypes and ablation outcomes

Experimental Physiology, EarlyView.
Abstract Atrial fibrillation (AF) is the most prevalent sustained cardiac arrhythmia and is associated with significant morbidity, mortality and healthcare utilization. Catheter ablation is increasingly used as a rhythm‐control intervention for patients with symptomatic paroxysmal and persistent AF, yet recurrence rates remain suboptimal.

A new approach to an old disease: Ageing, arrhythmogenic substrate and the role of risk‐factor modification in atrial fibrillation

Experimental Physiology, EarlyView.
Abstract Atrial fibrillation (AF) prevalence rises sharply with age due to two independent mechanisms. Ageing produces irreversible arrhythmogenic substrate changes through progressive fibrosis, cellular senescence and mitochondrial dysfunction, while modifiable risk factors such as obesity, hypertension, sleep apnoea, diabetes and alcohol use promote ...
