Modelling the human pharyngeal airway: validation of numerical simulations using in vitro experiments

, 2008
In the presented study, a numerical model which predicts the flow-induced collapse within the pharyngeal airway is validated using in vitro measurements. Theoretical simplifications were considered to limit the computation time.

Self-Reported Snoring Is Associated with Dyslipidemia, High Total Cholesterol, and High Low-Density Lipoprotein Cholesterol in Obesity: A Cross-Sectional Study from a Rural Area of China

International Journal of Environmental Research and Public Health, 2017
Studies to explore the relationship between self-reported snoring and dyslipidemia, especially high total cholesterol (TC) and high low-density lipoprotein cholesterol (LDL-C), in the general population are still lacking.

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.

Downstream Impact of a Sleep Surgery Program; Optimizing Patient Care and Generating Clinical Volume

The Laryngoscope, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Objectives In recent years, a growing number of Otolaryngologists have incorporated the management of sleep disorders into their practice. We aim to assess the downstream impact of a Sleep Surgery division within a department of Otolaryngology.

Lipofuscin: The Missing Link in the Worsening of Obstructive Sleep Apnea

The Laryngoscope, EarlyView.
Lipofuscin, also known as the age pigment, is a permanent autofluorescent intracellular deposit that accumulates with aging or oxidative stress, thereby interfering with cellular function. This study revealed significantly larger deposits of lipofuscin in the lateral pharyngeal wall muscles of patients with severe obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) compared
