Are reduced internal nasal dimensions a risk factor for obstructive sleep apnea syndrome?

Brazilian Journal of Otorhinolaryngology, 2022
Introduction: Obstructive sleep apnea syndrome is a high-prevalence disorder found in the population. Studies have shown a possible association between nasal obstruction and obstructive sleep apnea syndrome, but the existence of a association between the

Phenotype-based and Self-learning Inter-individual Sleep Apnea Screening with a Level IV Monitoring System [PDF]

, 2018
Purpose: We propose a phenotype-based artificial intelligence system that can self-learn and is accurate for screening purposes, and test it on a Level IV monitoring system. Methods: Based on the physiological knowledge, we hypothesize that the phenotype

Supine sleep and positional sleep apnea after acute ischemic stroke and intracerebral hemorrhage

Clinics, 2012
OBJECTIVE: Obstructive sleep apnea is frequent during the acute phase of stroke, and it is associated with poorer outcomes. A well-established relationship between supine sleep and obstructive sleep apnea severity exists in non-stroke patients.

Primary Human Tissue Models for Metabolic Dysfunction‐Associated Liver Disease ‐ toward Streamlining Drug Discovery with Patient‐Derived Assays

Advanced Biology, EarlyView.
The review provides a critical up‐to‐date overview of the current landscape of human in vitro models for fatty liver disease, including spheroids, organoids, organ‐on‐a‐chip systems, bioprinted liver constructs and precision‐cut liver slices. Their utility for faithfully modeling different stages of MASLD and MASH are evaluated and their compatibility ...

Therapeutic alternatives with CPAP in obstructive sleep apnea [PDF]

, 2019
Obstructive Sleep Apnea (OSA), characterized by airflow cessation (apnea) or reduction (hypopnea) due to repeated pharyngeal obstructions during sleep, causes frequent disruption of sleep and hypoxic events. The condition is linked to many adverse health

Crack‐Growing Interlayer Design for Deep Crack Propagation and Ultrahigh Sensitivity Strain Sensing

Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
A crack‐growing semi‐cured polyimide interlayer enabling deep cracks for ultrahigh sensitivity in low‐strain regimes is presented. The sensor achieves a gauge factor of 100 000 at 2% strain and detects subtle deformations such as nasal breathing, highlighting potential for minimally obstructive biomedical and micromechanical sensing applications ...

Microplastics from Wearable Bioelectronic Devices: Sources, Risks, and Sustainable Solutions

Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
Bioelectronic devices (e.g., e‐skins) heavily rely on polymers that at the end of their life cycle will generate microplastics. For research, a holistic approach to viewing the full impact of such devices cannot be overlooked. The potential for devices as sources for microplastics is raised, with mitigation strategies surrounding polysaccharide and ...
