Journal of Clinical Sleep Medicine (JCSM), 2019 Apnea-hypopnea index (AHI) is the main polysomnographic measure to diagnose obstructive sleep apnea (OSA). We aimed to evaluate the effect of three standard hypopnea definitions on the prevalence of OSA and its association with cardiometabolic outcomes ...

Long-term prediction of adherence to continuous positive air pressure therapy for the treatment of moderate/severe obstructive sleep apnea syndrome [PDF]
, 2018 BACKGROUND: Continuous positive airway pressure (CPAP) therapy is a highly effective treatment for obstructive sleep apnea syndrome (OSAS). However, poor adherence is a limiting factor, and a significant proportion of patients are unable to tolerate CPAP.

Adenotonsillar Microbiome Shifts in Children With Obstructive Sleep Apnea Syndrome
The Laryngoscope, EarlyView.This study compares the microbiomes of adenoids and tonsils in pediatric OSAS patients and healthy controls using 16S rRNA sequencing. Significant differences were found in the tonsillar microbiome of OSAS patients, with lower alpha diversity and an overrepresentation of pathogenic genera like Haemophilus and Neisseria, while adenoid microbiomes showed
