Kardiovaskuläre und kognitive Erkrankungen sind ebenso wie die obstruktive Schlafapnoe sehr häufige Krankheiten mit einer erheblichen Beeinträchtigung der Lebensqualität und einer deutlichen sozioökon...
Obstructive sleep apnea in infants with Pierre Robin sequence is sleep-position dependent. The influence of sleep position on obstructive events is not established in other infants....
We re-evaluated ten-year pediatric sleep center data in infants aged less than six months, with polysomnography performed in different sleep positions. We excluded infants with syndromes, genetic defe...
Comparison of breathing between supine and side sleeping positions was performed for 72 infants at the median corrected age of 4 weeks (interquartile range (IQR) 2-8 weeks). Of the infants, 74% were m...
Obstructive upper airway events in young infants are more frequent when supine than when sleeping on the side....
The effect of sleep position on obstructive sleep apnea is not well established in infants other than in those with Pierre Robin sequence. A tendency for upper airway obstruction is position dependent...
Obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) is a common disease associated with a high prevalence of costly comorbidities and accidents that add to the disease's economic impact. Although more attention has been fo...
Obstructive sleep apnea syndrome (OSAS) is the most common breathing-related sleep disorder. It is characterized by recurrent episodes of partial or complete airway obstruction during sleep, resulting...
It is known that obstructive sleep apnea syndrome affects many systems due to hypoxemia and hypercarbia. We aimed to demonstrate with the utilization of well-standardized questionnaire tools and elect...
The electrophysiological examination protocol of autonomic nervous system functions was performed with sympathetic skin response and R-R Interval. Patients were administered Epworth Sleepiness Scale, ...
This study included 148 participants, consisting of 73 patients and 75 controls. There was a statistically significant difference between the patient group and control group with regard to sympathetic...
Obstructive sleep apnea syndrome patients should be screened for diseases, especially in the cardiovascular system, that cause serious morbidity and impair functionality such as dementia and depressio...
Patients with obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) are at risk for QTc prolongation, a known risk factor for increased mortality. The pro-QTc score can help identify individuals at increased risk for mortali...
Medical records of patients undergoing a sleep study at our sleep center from February 2012 to August 2020 were analyzed. Presence or absence of OSA was determined by polysomnography. The pro-QTc scor...
There were 2246 patients (age 58 ± 15 years, 54% male, 82 dead) with OSA and 421 patients (age 54 ± 18 years, 43% male, 18 dead) without OSA. Of those with OSA, 1628 (72.5%) had at least one risk fact...
In patients with OSA, a higher pro-QTc score was associated with greater mortality....
The first-line and most common treatment for obstructive sleep apnea is nasal continuous positive airway pressure, which serves as a pneumatic splint to stabilize the upper airway and is effective whe...
Related publications between 1999 and 2022 were reviewed from PubMed and Embase databases utilizing search terms "artificial intelligence," "machine learning," "obstructive sleep apnea," and "treatmen...
The role of artificial intelligence in the treatment of OSA was categorized into the following sections: Predicting treatment outcomes of various treatment options, Improving/Evaluating treatment, and...
Artificial intelligence has the capacity to improve the treatment of OSA through predicting outcomes of treatment options, evaluating the treatment the patient is currently utilizing and increasing un...
This study aimed to evaluate the quality of sleep, presence of obstructive sleep apnea (OSA), and its relationship with the presence of snoring, cephalometric characteristics, degree of collapse of th...
All participants completed polysomnography, as well as sleep and snoring questionnaires. We further performed orofacial, otorhinolaryngological, and anthropometric evaluations on all participants....
A total of 102 adults, comprising 29 obese, 21 overweight, and 52 eutrophic individuals of both sexes participated in this study. We observed a high prevalence of snoring in both obese and overweight ...
Obese and overweight individuals presented a higher risk for the development of OSA compared with eutrophic patients, and obese individuals presented a greater severity of OSA. The higher the BMI and ...
Obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) is an important risk factor for poor asthma control. The objective of this study is to analyze the symptomatic control in asthmatic patients with OSA after using continuo...
Patients were collected in a monographic asthma consult and a polygraphy was performed due to clinical suspicion or poor disease control. Asthma associated pathologies, as well as clinical and patient...
A hundred patients were included, 59% were women and 41% men. From them, 54% had severe OSA, 33% moderate OSA and 13% mild OSA, and 10% could not tolerate CPAP. Eighty four percent had a moderate or s...
The use of CPAP in asthmatic patients with OSA improves both clinical and perceived asthma control in a statistically significant way. Most patients had good adaptation to CPAP (90%) and 51.5% had cli...
Obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) is one of the most common sleep problems defined by cessation or decreased airflow despite breathing efforts. It is known to be related to multiple adverse health consequ...
