Associations Between Nicotine Metabolites and Serum Neurofilament Light Chain Levels in the General Population

Chronic Diseases and Translational Medicine, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Nicotine has been associated with cognitive functions such as memory and attention, with serum neurofilament light chain (sNfL) as a biomarker for neurological diseases such as Alzheimer's disease (AD) and multiple sclerosis (MS).

Evaluation of the Association between Obstructive Sleep Apnea and Hearing Loss

Journal of Sleep Sciences, 2016
Background and Objective: Obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) through hypoxia and reoxygenation periods leads to oxidative stress, endothelial dysfunction, and activation of inflammatory cycles, which eventually may cause disorder in vasa nervorum, and ...

Protocol of the SOMNIA project : an observational study to create a neurophysiological database for advanced clinical sleep monitoring [PDF]

, 2019
Introduction Polysomnography (PSG) is the primary tool for sleep monitoring and the diagnosis of sleep disorders. Recent advances in signal analysis make it possible to reveal more information from this rich data source.

Evaluation of human obstructive sleep apnea using computational fluid dynamics. [PDF]

, 2019
Obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) severity might be correlated to the flow characteristics of the upper airways. We aimed to investigate the severity of OSA based on 3D models constructed from CT scans coupled with computational fluid dynamics (CFD ...

Incident heart failure: comparing management and outcome in primary and hospital settings in Western Sweden 2008–2017

ESC Heart Failure, Volume 12, Issue 2, Page 832-838, April 2025.
Abstract Aim Heart failure (HF) is a highly prevalent condition managed in both primary care (PC) and hospital care (HC)‐based settings. HF patients managed in these two settings may differ in their demography, comorbidities and outcomes, so we aimed to compare the patient management in PC and HC in the Västra Götaland Region (VGR) in Sweden.

Clinical significance of obstructive sleep apnea in patients with acute coronary syndrome in relation to diabetes status. [PDF]

, 2019
Objective: The prognostic significance of obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) in patients with acute coronary syndrome (ACS) according to diabetes mellitus (DM) status remains unclear. We aimed to elucidate the association of OSA with subsequent cardiovascular

Gray matter hypertrophy and thickening with obstructive sleep apnea in middle-aged and older adults [PDF]

, 2017
Rationale: Obstructive sleep apnea causes intermittent hypoxemia, hemodynamic fluctuations, and sleep fragmentation, all of which could damage cerebral gray matter that can be indirectly assessed with neuroimaging.

Multivariate linear regression to predict association of non‐invasive arterial stiffness with cardiovascular events

ESC Heart Failure, Volume 12, Issue 2, Page 1141-1150, April 2025.
Abstract Background Arterial stiffness is a crucial factor in determining an increase in systolic blood pressure and pulse pressure and can also predict the development of cardiovascular disease (CVD). The purpose of this study was to examine the relationship between arterial stiffness and future CVD.
