Correlation of obstructive sleep apnea hypopnea syndrome with metabolic syndrome in snorers
Though obstructive sleep apnea hypopnea syndrome (OSAHS) and metabolic syndrome (MS) are correlated; the contributing factors for the occurrence of MS in Chinese snorers remain largely undefined. We aimed to investigate the associated pathogenesis of coexistence of OSAHS and MS in Chinese snorers. A total of 144 Chinese habitual snorers were divided into 3 groups, the control group (simple snor...
متن کاملUpper airway collapsibility, and contractile and metabolic characteristics of musculus uvulae.
Physiologic, metabolic, and histochemical characteristics of one upper airway (UA) dilator muscle (musculus uvulae; MU) differ between sleep apnea hypopnea syndrome (SAHS) and nonapneic snorers. We hypothesized that these differences in MU characteristics could result from the cumulative effects of the diurnal and nocturnal intermittent contractions of UA muscles in order to compensate for a pe...

متن کامل: metadiscourse in introduction sections of applied linguistics and physics research articles: exploring variation in frequency and type
abstract in written mode of language, metadiscourse markers are used commonly to help writers in general and academic writers in particular to produce coherent and professional texts. the purpose of the present study was to compare introduction sections of applied linguistics and physics articles regarding their use of interactive and interactional metadiscourse markers based on the model pro...
15 صفحه اول[Oxidative stress and sleep apnea-hypopnea syndrome].
Sleep apnea-hypopnea syndrome (SAHS) is associated with an increased risk of cardiovascular disease.1-4 The pathogenic bases for this association are unknown, but one of the possible mechanisms involved is oxidative stress.5 It has been suggested that the intermittent hypoxia and episodes of hypoxia/reoxygenation that accompany apneas may lead to increased vascular release of free radicals, fav...
