Monitoring and assessment for obstructive sleep apnea

FlexMat, EarlyView.
This review systematically classifies Obstructive Sleep Apnea (OSA) monitoring indicators into three categories: physical, biochemical, and electrophysiological indicators, and lists several methods for each category. Abstract Obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) is a common chronic sleep‐disordered breathing disease characterized by recurrent upper airway ...

Cryogen‐Aided Chromatographic Purification of Millimole Quantities of Methane for Spectroscopic Clumped Isotope Analysis

Rapid Communications in Mass Spectrometry, Volume 40, Issue 18, 30 September 2026.
ABSTRACT Rationale Quantum cascade laser absorption spectroscopy (QCLAS) is a fast and reliable method for analyzing the bulk (𝛿13C‐CH4, 𝛿D‐CH4) and clumped isotopic (∆13CH3D and ∆12CH2D2) composition of methane. However, precise measurements of ∆12CH2D2 require 0.5 to 1.8 mmol of purified methane (equivalent to 15 to 40 mL at STP).
