Respiratory Involvement in HIST1H1E‐Related Rahman Syndrome: A Case of Severe Mixed Apnea
American Journal of Medical Genetics Part A, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Rahman syndrome (HIST1H1E‐related neurodevelopmental syndrome, OMIM #617537) is a rare autosomal‐dominant condition caused by truncating variants in the C‐terminal domain of the HIST1H1E gene. It is characterized by macrocephaly, hypotonia, craniofacial anomalies, and multisystem anomalies.

Is surgery effective for reducing symptoms in adults with obstructive sleep apnea? [PDF]
, 2001 Current evidence is insufficient to recommend surgery for symptom relief for patients with obstructive sleep apnea. More convincing evidence exists supporting the use of Continuous Positive Airway Pressure (CPAP) or dental appliances for reducing ...

American Journal of Medical Genetics Part A, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Homozygous achondroplasia is widely considered perinatal lethal by the medical community. In this case series, we report two children from a single family with longer‐term survival. One child lived for 17 months and the other was 60 months at the time of publication.

International Forum of Allergy &Rhinology, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Background Nasal airway obstruction (NAO) is prevalent with substantial health and quality of life burdens. Nasal valve collapse (NVC) is one structural cause of NAO. Temperature‐controlled radiofrequency (TCRF) nasal valve remodeling offers an alternative to invasive surgery.

Cerebral vasoreactivity in response to a headof-bed position change is altered in patients with moderate and severe obstructive sleep apnea [PDF]
, 2018 Obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) can impair cerebral vasoreactivity and is associated with an increased risk of cerebrovascular disease. Unfortunately, an easy-to-use, non-invasive, portable monitor of cerebral vasoreactivity does not exist. Therefore, we

Annals of Neurology, EarlyView.Objective The objective of this study was to test if blood–brain barrier (BBB) disruption, detected using dynamic susceptibility contrast (DSC) imaging, would predict progression of white matter hyperintensities (WMHs) over the subsequent year in patients with chronic cerebrovascular disease. Methods The study included patients with a history of stroke

Severe, Non‐apneic Respiratory Dysfunction and Hypoxia following Generalized Convulsive Seizures
Annals of Neurology, EarlyView.Objective Sudden unexpected death in epilepsy (SUDEP) is a devastating consequence of some generalized convulsive seizures (GCS). Recent work has focused on seizure related apnea as a biomarker of SUDEP risk, frequently without characterizing the adequacy of non‐apneic ventilation or identifying other dysfunctional breathing patterns.

SLEEP APNEA IN ENDOCRINE DISORDERS
Alʹmanah Kliničeskoj Mediciny, 2016 In the recent years, an association between sleep apnea and a number of endocrine diseases has been established. The secretion of many hormones after falling asleep is considerably changed, compared to the period of wakefulness.
