Erectile dysfunction in obstructive sleep apnea syndrome--prevalence and determinants.
INTRODUCTION OSAS (Obstructive Sleep apnea syndrome) is defined by recurrent episodes of upper airway obstruction during sleep, causing multiple clinical consequences. Literature review suggests that OSAS induces a spectrum of abnormalities in neural, hormonal and vascular regulation that contribute to the development of ED (erectile dysfunction). The aims of this study were to estimate the pre...
متن کاملPure Obstructive Sleep Apnea Syndrome and Erectile Dysfunction
Objective: The aim of this study is to investigate the existence of erectile dysfunction in patients with obstructive sleep apnea syndrome (OSAS) in which the other possible causes of erectile dysfunction were eliminated. Material and Methods: The study group consisted of 24 patients diagnosed as OSAS with polysomnographic evaluation, and 15 non-apneic controls (mean age; 41.0±8.8 and 42.3±7.9 ...
متن کامل[Obstructive sleep apnea and erectile dysfunction].
Erectile dysfunction (ED) is common among men with obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) with reports of prevalence varying from 30 – 50 percent. The mechanism is unknown. Since chronic hypoxia is known to cause peripheral neuropathies, it is logical to question whether ED in OSA might reflect peripheral neuropathy resulting from the intermittent nocturnal hypoxia concomitant with OSA. Two recent studi...
متن کاملAbnormal Cytokine Profile in Patients with Obstructive Sleep Apnea-Hypopnea Syndrome and Erectile Dysfunction
Patients with obstructive sleep apnea-hypopnea syndrome (OSAHS) show a high prevalence of erectile dysfunction (ED). Although the underlying pathogenesis is still unknown, endothelial dysfunction, induced by inflammatory cytokines, chemokines, and adhesion molecules, has been proposed as a possible mechanism. The aim of this study was to assess whether OSAHS is associated with activation of the...
متن کاملExecutive dysfunction in patients with obstructive sleep apnea syndrome.
AIMS To clarify whether patients with obstructive sleep apnea syndrome (OSAS) have executive dysfunction, to identify the domains of executive function affected and to establish the severity of any dysfunction. METHODS A full-night polysomnography and a comprehensive neuropsychological assessment focusing on executive functions were conducted on 40 newly diagnosed OSAS patients and 20 healthy...
