Dopamine: The Essential Bridge Mediating Obstructive Sleep Apnea and Hippocampus‐Dependent Learning and Memory Impairments

World Journal of Otorhinolaryngology - Head and Neck Surgery, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Obstructive sleep apnea is a clinical syndrome that triggers a series of pathophysiologic changes, including disturbed sleep architecture, chronic intermittent hypoxia and hypercapnia, and ultimately severe cognitive dysfunction. The hippocampus plays a key role in various cognitive processes such as learning and memory.

Drug‐Induced Sleep Endoscopy in Children Predicts OSA Severity

World Journal of Otorhinolaryngology - Head and Neck Surgery, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background While adenotonsillectomy (AT) is first line for pediatric obstructive sleep apnea (OSA), treatment failure is common. Drug‐induced sleep endoscopy (DISE) provides dynamic airway assessment, but its role in predicting OSA severity requires clarification. This study correlates DISE findings with polysomnographic severity. Objective To
