American Journal of Respiratory and Critical Care Medicine, 2020 RATIONALE Obesity is the primary risk factor for sleep apnea (OSA). Tongue fat is increased in obese persons with OSA, and may explain the relationship between obesity and OSA. Weight loss improves OSA, but the mechanism is unknown.

A mathematical model to serve as a clinical tool for assessing obstructive sleep apnea severity
Frontiers in Physiology, 2023 Obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) is a sleep disorder caused by periodic airway obstructions and has been associated with numerous health consequences, which are thought to result from tissue hypoxia.

Journal of the American Medical Association (JAMA), 2020 Importance Many adults with obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) use device treatments inadequately and remain untreated. Objective To determine whether combined palatal and tongue surgery to enlarge or stabilize the upper airway is an effective treatment for

Contactless camera-based AHI score estimation in SAS patients
Current Directions in Biomedical Engineering, 2023 Sleep apnea syndrome (SAS) is a common sleeprelated breathing disorder characterized by recurring cessations of airflow during sleep. The gold standard for diagnosing SAS is polysomnography (PSG) which requires the patient to spend one or several nights ...

The Bidirectional Relationship Between Obstructive Sleep Apnea and Metabolic Disease [PDF]
, 2018 Obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) is a common sleep disorder, effecting 17% of the total population and 40–70% of the obese population (1, 2). Multiple studies have identified OSA as a critical risk factor for the development of obesity, diabetes, and ...

The correlation between oxygen saturation indices and the standard obstructive sleep apnea severity
Annals of Thoracic Medicine, 2020 OBJECTIVE: Currently accepted guidelines categorize obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) severity according to the Apnea–Hypopnea Index (AHI). However, it is unclear how to best define OSA severity.

An Effective Method for Distinguishing Sleep Apnea and Hypopnea Based on ECG Signals
IEEE Access, 2021 Good sleep quality is essential to our life and work. The two major challenges in evaluating sleep quality are the scoring of sleep stages and sleep apnea detection. In addition to sleep apnea, hypopnea is also a respiratory event that occurs at an equal
