Optic Nerve Thickness Assessed by Ocular Ultrasonography in Obstructive Sleep Apnea

Journal of Ultrasound in Medicine, EarlyView.
Objectives Obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) has been associated with various ocular complications, yet ultrasonographic evaluation of optic nerve thickness and its relationship with nocturnal hypoxemia remains poorly understood. This study aimed to evaluate optic nerve thickness and globe dimensions using ocular ultrasonography in patients with different ...

Nocturnal oxygen desaturation and exercise-induced desaturation in subjects with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease

Respiratory Medicine, 1995
The finding of an arterial oxygen tension (PaO,) of less than 7.3 kPa defines those patients in whom long-term oxygen therapy (LTOT) is likely to be of benefit (1). Where oxygen tensions are higher than this level, oxygen administered on an ‘as required basis may still be useful to alleviate exercise-induced hypoxia (2).

Efficacy of CPAP Therapy on Liver Steatosis and Insulin Resistance in Fatty Liver Patients With Obstructive Sleep Apnea: A 4‐Year Follow‐Up Cohort Study

The Kaohsiung Journal of Medical Sciences, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Metabolic dysfunction‐associated steatotic liver disease (MASLD) and obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) are comorbid conditions that synergistically increase cardiovascular risk through systemic inflammation and insulin resistance. While continuous positive airway pressure (CPAP) is the standard treatment for OSA, its efficacy in improving hepatic ...

Design and Development of Novel Airway Device for Transoral Respiratory Monitoring During Sedation

The Laryngoscope, EarlyView.
This article describes iterative design factors and results of clinical testing for a novel medical device that promotes transoral respiratory gas exchange for patients during sedation. A minimally viable prototype was 3D printed from thermoplastic polyurethane and demonstrated high levels of oral retention, gas exchange, and satisfaction among ...

Maxillomandibular Advancement Outcomes in Obstructive Sleep Apnea by Age and Gender

The Laryngoscope, EarlyView.
This systematic review and meta‐analysis of 36 studies (608 patients) found that maxillomandibular advancement significantly improves polysomnographic, cephalometric, and subjective measures of obstructive sleep apnea across both sexes and throughout the lifespan. Odds of surgical cure decline roughly 3% per year of age.

Intraoperative Bradycardia: Evaluating Vasovagal Events in Adult Suspension Microlaryngeal Surgery

The Laryngoscope, EarlyView.
This retrospective single‐surgeon cohort study of 190 adults undergoing suspension microlaryngoscopy found that 8.9% (17/190) developed significant intraoperative bradycardia consistent with a vasovagal response (VVR). No demographic, comorbidity, or procedural factors were significantly associated with VVR, though most affected patients required ...

SMILE: Extraction‐free submicron‐resolution mapping of lipid chain length and unsaturation by stimulated Raman imaging

View
Lipid spatial heterogeneity is essential for linking metabolic regulation to cellular behavior. Yet, subcellular lipid profiling remains a challenge, as exogenous labels cannot detect lipid speciation and species diversity.
