Sleep Apnea and Skin

Current Sleep Medicine Reports, 2020
Skin disease is associated with obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) both epidemiologically and mechanistically. In this review we highlight conditions which have a well-established link to obstructive sleep apnea, such as psoriasis and atopic dermatitis.We describe putative mechanistic links between OSA and skin disease involving inflammatory pathways ...

The HRAS Variant c.175G>A (p.Ala59Thr) Causes a Predominantly Ectodermal Phenotype Lacking Classic Costello Syndrome Features

American Journal of Medical Genetics Part A, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Costello syndrome (CS) is a rare dominant HRAS RASopathy characterized by curly hair, cardiac abnormalities, craniofacial anomalies, and developmental delay. HRAS codon 58, 59, and 60 variants are associated with milder phenotypes. We describe a three‐generation family with a previously unreported heterozygous HRAS variant c.175G>A (p.Ala59Thr)

Impact of sleep apnea on alzheimer’s disease in relation to sex: an 8-year longitudinal follow-up study of a nationwide cohort

Alzheimer’s Research & Therapy
Background We aimed to investigate the association between sleep apnea and incident dementia (dementia of the Alzheimer type [DAT] and vascular dementia) and whether differences in the effects of sleep apnea on dementia depend on sex.

Lower respiratory tract infections among newly diagnosed sleep apnea patients

BMC Pulmonary Medicine, 2023
Background Sleep apnea is associated with chronic comorbidities and acute complications. Existing data suggest that sleep apnea may predispose to an increased risk and severity of respiratory tract infections.

Obstructive sleep apnea: current perspectives

Nature and Science of Sleep, 2018
The prevalence of obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) continues to rise. So too do the health, safety, and economic consequences. On an individual level, the causes and consequences of OSA can vary substantially between patients.

Biomarkers of Sleep Apnea [PDF]

Chest, 2012
Obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) is a condition of repetitive upper airway collapse, which occurs during sleep. Recent literature has emphasized the role of OSA in contributing to glucose intolerance, dyslipidemia, and hypertension. OSA is associated with the development of cardiovascular disease, although definitive data are sparse with regard to the ...

Repurposing With Purpose: Treatment of Bachmann–Bupp Syndrome With Eflornithine and Implications for Other Polyaminopathies

American Journal of Medical Genetics Part C: Seminars in Medical Genetics, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Rare diseases impact approximately 1 in 10 people worldwide, and yet, less than 5% of all rare diseases currently have an approved treatment option available. This is due to many challenges unique to rare diseases, including small, diverse patient populations, the cost of drug development that is not proportionate to the number of patients who

Detecting Slow Wave Sleep Using a Single EEG Signal Channel [PDF]

, 2015
Background: In addition to the cost and complexity of processing multiple signal channels, manual sleep staging is also tedious, time consuming, and error-prone. The aim of this paper is to propose an automatic slow wave sleep (SWS) detection method that

Automated Sleep Apnea Detection in Raw Respiratory Signals Using Long Short-Term Memory Neural Networks

IEEE journal of biomedical and health informatics, 2019
Sleep apnea is one of the most common sleep disorders and the consequences of undiagnosed sleep apnea can be very severe, ranging from increased blood pressure to heart failure. However, many people are often unaware of their condition. The gold standard
