Tonsil volume, tonsil grade and obstructive sleep apnea: is there any meaningful correlation?
Clinics, 2011 OBJECTIVES: The aims of this study were to evaluate the correlation between oropharyngeal examination and objective palatine tonsil volume in snoring adults and verify the influence of the oropharyngeal anatomy, body mass index, age, and severity of ...

Thermal Imaging and Radar for Remote Sleep Monitoring of Breathing and Apnea [PDF]
arXivPolysomnography (PSG), the current gold standard method for monitoring and detecting sleep disorders, is cumbersome and costly. At-home testing solutions, known as home sleep apnea testing (HSAT), exist. However, they are contact-based, a feature which limits the ability of some patient populations to tolerate testing and discourages widespread ...

0-9549670-0-3 (Ed.) (2004) 1-6, 2006 Obstructive sleep apnea syndrome is now considered as a major health care topic. An in-vitro setup which reproduces and simplifies upper airway geometry has been the basis to study the fluid/walls interaction that leads to an apnea. It consists of a rigid pipe (the pharynx) in contact with a deformable latex cylinder filled with water (the tongue). Air

Obstructive sleep apnea and stroke
Sleep Medicine and Disorders: International Journal, 2018 Obstructive Sleep Apnea (OSA) is a common co-morbid condition in stroke patients. It represents a very important risk factor for stroke in addition to the other established ones such as hypertension, cardiovascular disease (CVD), hyperlipidemia, atrial fibrillation (AF), type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM), stress, smoking, and heavy drinking.

ESC Heart Failure, Volume 12, Issue 3, Page 2298-2309, June 2025.Abstract Aims The prognosis of heart failure (HF) is closely linked to inflammation and nutritional status. The advanced lung cancer inflammation index (ALI) is a composite indicator consisting of several parameters used to assess inflammation and nutritional status. Our study aimed to investigate the prognostic value of ALI in HF patients. Methods The

Inter‐atrial block as a predictor of adverse outcomes in patients with HFpEF
ESC Heart Failure, Volume 12, Issue 3, Page 2287-2297, June 2025.Abstract Aims Inter‐atrial block (IAB), a marker of electrical atrial dysfunction, is associated with an increased risk of atrial fibrillation (AF) and adverse events in various populations. The prognostic impact of IAB in heart failure (HF) with preserved ejection fraction (HFpEF) remains unknown.

Quantifying sleep apnea heterogeneity using hierarchical Bayesian modeling [PDF]
arXivObstructive Sleep Apnea (OSA) is a breathing disorder during sleep that affects millions of people worldwide. The diagnosis of OSA often occurs through an overnight polysomnogram (PSG) sleep study that generates a massive amount of physiological data.

ESC Heart Failure, Volume 12, Issue 3, Page 1682-1692, June 2025.Abstract Aims Large‐scale, real‐world data on early initiation of sacubitril/valsartan in patients newly diagnosed (de novo) with HF with reduced ejection fraction (HFrEF) are limited. We examined the effectiveness of sacubitril/valsartan versus angiotensin‐converting enzyme inhibitor (ACEi)/angiotensin receptor blocker (ARB) on all‐cause and cause ...
