Comparison of positional and rapid eye movement-dependent sleep apnea syndromes

Annals of Thoracic Medicine, 2018
AIM: We aimed to compare the clinical, epidemiological, and polysomnographic features of rapid eye movement (REM)-dependent obstructive sleep apnea syndrome (OSAS) and positional OSAS which are two separate clinical entities.

Providing space in genetic counseling: Reflexive thematic analysis of long and short sessions across clinical specialties

Journal of Genetic Counseling, Volume 35, Issue 3, June 2026.
Abstract The duration of genetic counseling (GC) sessions can vary significantly. However, which factors contribute to sessions being abbreviated or extended and how that affects quality of care has not been well studied. This study explored variability in long versus short GC patient care time, defined as time spent in the session with the patient ...

Analysis of Smartphone Triaxial Accelerometry for Monitoring Sleep-Disordered Breathing and Sleep Position at Home

IEEE Access, 2020
Obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) is a sleep disorder in which repetitive upper airway obstructive events occur during sleep. These events can induce hypoxia, which is a risk factor for multiple cardiovascular and cerebrovascular diseases.

Sleep Apnea and Paroxysmal Atrial Fibrillation: Diurnal Patterning of Autonomic Dysfunction and Influence of CPAP Therapy

Journal of Arrhythmia, Volume 42, Issue 3, June 2026.
Autonomic dysfunction in sleep apnea shows diurnal variation, with stronger associations between SDB severity and HRV during wakefulness than sleep. CPAP therapy induces complex, state‐dependent changes in HRV, suggesting that daytime autonomic alterations may better reflect sustained cardiovascular risk in patients with paroxysmal atrial fibrillation.

The effect of sleep position on sleep bruxism in adults with obstructive sleep apnea

Journal of Oral Rehabilitation
Abstract Background Most of the respiratory events in adults with obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) occurs in supine position. It has been reported that the contraction of masseter muscles is dependent on the occurrence of arousals rather than on the occurrence of respiratory events.

Improving Sleep Apnea Therapy Outcomes with DreamVent [PDF]

Indian Journal of Sleep Medicine
Obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) is a common disorder characterized by recurrent episodes of upper airway collapse during sleep, resulting in periodic oxygen desaturation and sleep arousals. Untreated OSA leads to adverse cardiovascular, neurocognitive, and

The Importance of Sleep Position in Obstructive Sleep Apnea Syndrome

Turkish Thoracic Journal/Türk Toraks Dergisi, 2014
OBJECTIVE: Sleeping in the supine position has an important role in the severity and development of sleep apnea. Significant increase in the Apnea- Hypopnea Index (AHI) in cases with Positional Obstructive Sleep Apnea Syndrome (OSAS) seen in the side-lying position and in those sleeping in the supine position with moderate total AHI index scores ...
