Obstructive Sleep Apnea and Atherosclerosis
Progress in Cardiovascular Diseases, 2009Obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) is associated with significant cardiovascular morbidity and excess in mortality. Atherosclerosis has been shown to occur in OSA patients free of any other significant risk factors. In particular, intima media thickness, an early marker of atherosclerosis, may be increased at the carotid level in OSA.

Obstructive sleep apnea syndrome
European Journal of Internal Medicine, 2012Obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) syndrome is a common but often unrecognized disorder caused by pharyngeal collapse during sleep and characterized by frequent awakenings, disrupted sleep and consequent excessive daytime sleepiness. With the increasing epidemic of obesity, the most important risk factor for OSA, prevalence of the disease will increase over

This chapter outlines the surgical management of children who experience symptoms of airway obstruction after undergoing pharyngeal flap surgery or sphincter pharyngoplasty for the correction of velopharyngeal insufficiency. It also describes the management of children with hyponasality following these corrective surgical interventions.

Sites of Obstruction in Obstructive Sleep Apnea
Chest, 2002The aim of this article was to identify the most common sites of obstruction in patients with obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) by a systematic review of published studies.The review was conducted by a MEDLINE search of the English literature published during the years 1980 to 2002.

Obesity and Obstructive Sleep Apnea
2021Obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) is characterized by upper airway collapse during sleep. Chronic intermittent hypoxia, sleep fragmentation, and inflammatory activation are the main pathophysiological mechanisms of OSA. OSA is highly prevalent in obese patients and may contribute to cardiometabolic risk by exerting detrimental effects on adipose tissue ...

Epilepsy and Obstructive Sleep Apnea
European Neurology, 2006A few publications documented the coexistence of epilepsy and obstructive sleep apnea (OSA). The extent, nature, and clinical relevance of this association remain poorly understood. We retrospectively reviewed the database of our sleep center to identify patients with both sleep apnea and epilepsy.

Obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) is one of the best known and most prevalent sleep disorders. Recurring nightly apneic events are not only accompanied by severe impairment of the sleep pattern but also provoke acute and chronic changes in cardiovascular performance. OSA has been linked to secondary hypertension in multiple studies of various designs.
