Stroke is the second leading cause of death worldwide and often has devastating consequences for affected individuals in terms of chronic disability. Traditional risk factors such as age, male sex, ethnicity, hypertension, and atrial fibrillation explain 60%-80% of the risk of stroke. Obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) is highly prevalent in individuals who

The critical issue in considering the diagnosis and management of CSA is to determine the physiologic process underlying the disorder. CSA includes a pathophysiologically and clinically heterogeneous group of disorders that can be divided into two main groups on the basis of the awake PaCO2: a hypercapnic group, in whom the disorder is related to ...

Central apnea is caused by temporary failure in the pontomedullary pacemaker generating breathing rhythm, which results in the loss of ventilatory effort, and if it lasts 10 seconds or more it is defined as central apnea. This article reviews current knowledge on central sleep apnea.

Sleep apnea syndrome (SAS) in the elderly presents varied clinical symptoms and also has many complications. Moreover, there are many hospital departments related to these symptoms. This article uses literature to provide an outline on SAS observed in the elderly.SAS sufferers often have complications with so-called lifestyle-related diseases, such as ...

Sleep Apnea and Hypothyroidism
Southern Medical Journal, 1988Thyroid deficiency states are now a well recognized cause of the sleep apnea syndrome. The spectrum of disease ranges from mild, asymptomatic hypothyroidism to severe myxedema, and the disorder is associated with both obstructive and central types of sleep apnea.

Annals of Internal Medicine, 2019 Obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) is very common but is frequently undiagnosed. Symptoms include loud snoring, nocturnal awakening, and daytime sleepiness. Motor vehicle accidents due to drowsy driving are a particular concern. Evaluation and treatment should focus on symptomatic patients, both to alleviate symptoms and to potentially decrease ...

Obstructive sleep apnea is more prevalent in patients with hypertension than in the general population and many with obstructive sleep apnea also have hypertension. Obstructive sleep apnea increases the risk of hypertension-related morbidities such as stroke, heart failure, and premature death.

A central apnea is a disorder characterized by apneic events during sleep with no associated ventilatory effort. Central sleep apnea syndrome is characterized by repeated apneas during sleep resulting from loss of respiratory effort. Although the etiology of central apnea remains obscure in most cases, current investigations into breathing control ...
