Lipofuscin: The Missing Link in the Worsening of Obstructive Sleep Apnea

The Laryngoscope, EarlyView.
Lipofuscin, also known as the age pigment, is a permanent autofluorescent intracellular deposit that accumulates with aging or oxidative stress, thereby interfering with cellular function. This study revealed significantly larger deposits of lipofuscin in the lateral pharyngeal wall muscles of patients with severe obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) compared

Obstructive Sleep Apnea: Emerging Treatments Targeting the Genioglossus Muscle [PDF]

, 2019
Obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) is characterized by repetitive episodes of upper airway obstruction caused by a loss of upper airway dilator muscle tone during sleep and an inadequate compensatory response by these muscles in the context of an anatomically

Implementing the Palatal Plate for Robin Sequence Beyond the Originating Center: How I Do It

The Laryngoscope, EarlyView.
The treatment of upper airway obstruction in newborns with Robin sequence (RS) is challenging. We report our experience implementing the minimally invasive Tübingen palatal plate in a pediatric tertiary care center, detailing a step‐by‐step protocol and clinical outcomes from our first patient series.

Does A Short, Thick Neck Predict Obstructive Sleep Apnea?: The Role of Physical Examination in OSA Screening [PDF]

, 2016
Purpose: The purpose of this study was to determine whether a short neck, alone or together with a thick neck, can predict obstructive sleep apnea (OSA).

The importance of screening in children who snore [PDF]

, 2019
It is important to screen for OSAS in children who snore, as early treatment of OSAS can prevent neurocognitive, behavioural, cardiovascular and metabolic consequences.

Mortality‐risk‐based apnea–hypopnea index thresholds for diagnostics of obstructive sleep apnea

Journal of Sleep Research, 2019
The severity of obstructive sleep apnea is clinically assessed mainly using the apnea–hypopnea index. Based on the apnea–hypopnea index, patients are classified into four severity groups: non‐obstructive sleep apnea (apnea–hypopnea index

Stridor Is an Independent Risk Factor for Mortality and Disease Progression in Patients with Multiple System Atrophy

Movement Disorders, EarlyView.
Abstract Background and aim Stridor and sleep apnea syndrome (SAS) are common in multiple system atrophy (MSA). Retrospective cohort studies have yielded conflicting results regarding the consequences of stridor and SAS on the disease course. This study aimed to assess the prognostic significance of stridor and SAS, as well as the potential survival ...

Long-term effect of cardiac pacing on sleep-disordered breathing in patients with conventional indications for a permanent pacemaker

Journal of Arrhythmia, 2014
Background: The effect of cardiac pacing on sleep-disordered breathing is controversial. We investigated the long-term effect of cardiac pacing on sleep disordered breathing in patients with conventional indications for permanent pacemakers Methods ...
