Abnormal diurnal variation in salt and water excretion in patients with obstructive sleep apnoea.
نویسندگان
چکیده
1. In healthy individuals, sleep is associated with a fall in urine and sodium output. 2. Seven male patients with obstructive sleep apnoea exhibited a paradoxical rise in both urine and sodium output during the hours of sleep. 3. Continuous positive airway pressure applied via the nose abolished both the apnoea and the nocturnal rise in urine and sodium output, thereby restoring the diurnal pattern towards normal.

Association between lipid peroxidation and inflammation in obstructive sleep apnoea.
In the present study, the authors examined the relationship between lipid peroxidation and inflammation in patients with obstructive sleep apnoea (OSA). A total of 40 obese patients with OSA were studied, along with 18 obese and 12 lean subjects without OSA. Overnight excretion of 8-isoprostane in urine and serum levels of high-sensitivity C-reactive protein (hsCRP) were measured. In addition, ...
متن کاملNocturnal blood pressure during apnoeic and ventilatory periods in patients with obstructive sleep apnoea.
The exact nature of asleep blood pressure in relation to awake blood pressure is still unclear in patients with obstructive sleep apnoea. This study aimed: 1) to investigate the asleep blood pressure in both apnoeic and ventilatory periods; 2) to determine the diurnal and nocturnal factors correlated with the changes in blood pressure from apnoea to ventilatory periods during sleep. Thirty-two ...

متن کاملPathophysiology of obstructive sleep apnoea.
The pathophysiology of obstructive sleep apnoea (OSA) is complex and incompletely understood. A narrowed upper airway is very common among OSA patients, and is usually in adults due to nonspecific factors such as fat deposition in the neck, or abnormal bony morphology of the upper airway. Functional impairment of the upper airway dilating muscles is particularly important in the development of ...
متن کاملTranssubmental tongue-base suspension in treating patients with severe obstructive sleep apnoea after failed uvulopalatopharyngoplasty: our experience.
Dear Editor, Snoring and obstructive sleep apnoea is largely owing to narrowed upper airway and abnormal collapsibility during sleep. More than 90% of apneic patients have single obstruction in the retropalatal level, whereas 40–50% of those have obstruction in multiple sites, including retropalatal space, retrolingual space and hypopharynx. Successful surgical management of obstructive sleep a...
