Obstructive sleep apnea and stroke
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.

Abstract Heart failure with preserved ejection fraction (HFpEF) is defined by heart failure (HF) with a left ventricular ejection fraction (LVEF) of at least 50%. HFpEF has a complex and heterogeneous pathophysiology with multiple co‐morbidities contributing to its presentation. Establishing the diagnosis of HFpEF can be challenging.

Tonsil volume, tonsil grade and obstructive sleep apnea: is there any meaningful correlation?
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 ...

Quantifying sleep apnea heterogeneity using hierarchical Bayesian modeling [PDF]
Obstructive 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.

Abstract Aims Heart failure represents a substantial burden to both patients and healthcare systems worldwide. Nitric oxide (NO) dysregulation may play a key role in patients transitioning from chronic to acute heart failure with a reduced ejection fraction (HFrEF). Plasma nitrite (NO2−) is highly reflective of local nitric oxide production and has not

Abstract Aims Atrial fibrillation (AF) is a frequent comorbidity in heart failure (HF). We analysed factors associated with new‐onset atrial fibrillation in patients with heart failure using linked real‐world UK data from primary and secondary care, along with findings from genome‐wide association studies. Methods and results Among 163 174 participants

Integration of an enhanced recovery after surgery program for patients undergoing pituitary surgery
Abstract Evidence‐based enhanced recovery after surgery (ERAS) programs aim to improve patient outcomes and shorten hospital stays. The objective of this study is to describe the development, implementation, and evolution of an ERAS protocol to optimize the perioperative management for patients undergoing endoscopic skull base surgery for pituitary ...
