The molecular pathology of genioglossus in obstructive sleep apnea [PDF]

arXiv, 2023
Obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) is a sleep respiratory disease characterized by sleep snoring accompanied by apnea and daytime sleeplessness. It is a complex disease, with the multifactorial etiology, and the pathology is incompletely understood. Genioglossus (GG), the largest dilator of upper airway, whose fatigue is strongly correlated to onset of OSA.

Early features associated with the neurocognitive development at 36 months of age: the AuBE study [PDF]

Sleep Medicine, Elsevier, 2017, 30, pp.222-228, 2019
Background. Few studies on the relations between sleep quantity and/or quality and cognition were conducted among pre-schoolers from healthy general population.

Discovery of an X-ray Synchrotron Nebula Associated with the Radio Pulsar PSR B1853+01 in the Supernova Remnant W44 [PDF]

, 1996
We report the detection using ASCA data of a hard X-ray source in the vicinity of the radio pulsar PSR B1853+01 which is located within the supernova remnant (SNR) W44. PSR B1853+01, a 267ms pulsar, has to date only been detected in the radio band. Previous observations at soft X-ray energies (e.g., with ROSAT HRI) have failed to detect any significant

Extraction of Sleep Information from Clinical Notes of Patients with Alzheimer's Disease Using Natural Language Processing [PDF]

arXiv, 2022
Alzheimer's Disease (AD) is the most common form of dementia in the United States. Sleep is one of the lifestyle-related factors that has been shown critical for optimal cognitive function in old age. However, there is a lack of research studying the association between sleep and AD incidence. A major bottleneck for conducting such research is that the

A genome-wide association study based on the China Kadoorie Biobank identifies genetic associations between snoring and cardiometabolic traits

Communications Biology
Despite the high prevalence of snoring in Asia, little is known about the genetic etiology of snoring and its causal relationships with cardiometabolic traits. Based on 100,626 Chinese individuals, a genome-wide association study on snoring was conducted.
