The eye in sleep apnea syndrome
Sleep Medicine, 2006Sleep apnea syndrome (SAS) is a disease characterized by recurrent complete or partial upper airway obstructions during sleep. The majority of patients with SAS demonstrate this obstruction either at the nasopharynx or the oropharynx. Risk factors for SAS include obesity, male gender, upper airway abnormalities, alcohol use, snoring, and neck girth of ...

STUDY OBJECTIVES The functional somatic syndromes are associated with a variety of symptoms/signs of uncertain etiology. We determined the prevalence of several of those symptoms/signs in patients with sleep-disordered breathing and examined the ...

Complex sleep apnea syndrome (Comp-SAS) is the term used to describe a specific form of sleep disordered breathing characterized by the arise of central sleep apnea in patient with previous obstructive sleep apnea syndrome (OSAS) treated with continuous positive airway pressure devices (CPAP).

Treatment of complex sleep apnea syndrome
Current Treatment Options in Neurology, 2008Patients with complex sleep apnea syndrome (CompSAS) present with features of obstructive sleep apnea syndrome but demonstrate not only instability of upper airway tone (leading to classic obstructive apneas and hypopneas) but also unstable, chemosensitive ventilatory control leading to repetitive central apneas or periodic breathing during sleep.

Obstructive sleep apnea in Costello syndrome
American Journal of Medical Genetics Part A, 2006AbstractCostello syndrome (CS) was initially described by Costello in 1971; it is caused by a germline mutation in HRAS proto‐oncogene. The aim of the present study was to evaluate the respiratory activity during sleep in a group of subjects with CS. We studied 10 consecutive patients, 4 males and 6 females, aged 3–29 years, affected by CS.

Obstructive Sleep Apnea Syndromes
Seminars in Respiratory and Critical Care Medicine, 2005Complete or partial collapse of the upper airway during sleep has different effects on the human body ranging from noisy breathing (snoring) to significant cardiovascular sequelae as seen in obstructive sleep apnea (OSA). Snoring is very common in the adult population and has been associated with morbidity in epidemiological studies.

Obstructive sleep apnea syndrome in childhood
Early Human Development, 2013Obstructive sleep apnea syndrome (OSAS) was first reported in 1976 by Guilleminault. This condition has been defined as a disorder of breathing during sleep characterized by prolonged partial/complete upper airway obstruction that disrupts normal ventilation and normal sleep patterns.

Obstructive sleep apnea and the metabolic syndrome
Expert Review of Respiratory Medicine, 2009Obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) and the metabolic syndrome have a strong association with each other owing to their common feature of obesity, but an association independent of obesity has been demonstrated in several studies. There is also evidence, of varying strengths, from epidemiologic and clinical studies, for the independent association between ...

Microalbuminuria in obstructive sleep apnea syndrome
Sleep and Breathing, 2015Microalbuminuria is an important risk factor for cardiovascular diseases. Microalbuminuria may be seen due to intermittent hypoxemia in patients with obstructive sleep apnea syndrome (OSAS). In this study, we investigated the prevalence and relationship of microalbuminuria with clinical and physiological parameters in patients with OSAS.Ninety-eight ...

Sleep apnea syndrome in endocrine clinics
Journal of Endocrinological Investigation, 2015Obstructive sleep apnea syndrome (OSAS) is a chronic condition with a high prevalence (up to 7 % of the general population) characterized by frequent episodes of upper airway collapse while sleeping. Left untreated, OSAS can cause severe complications, including systemic hypertension, cardiovascular disease, stroke, and abnormal glucose metabolism ...
