PURPOSE Our study aimed to determine whether obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) is common among branch retinal vein occlusion (BRVO) patients without systemic risk factors using a Watch PAT-100 portable monitoring device. METHODS The study participants included consecutive patients with BRVO of less than 3 months duration without any risk factors known to be associated with OSA (diabetes, coronary...
STUDY OBJECTIVE To determine the prevalence, risk factors, and impact on daytime sleepiness and hypertension of periodic leg movements of sleep (PLMS) with associated arousals in patients with obstructive sleep apnea (OSA). METHODS A single-center retrospective case series of 798 consecutive patients who underwent diagnostic overnight polysomnography for suspected OSA. We performed discrimina...
BACKGROUND To evaluate association of 24 h-systolic blood pressure (SBP) variability and obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) as defined by the apnea-hypopnea index ≥5/h; and association of 24 h-SBP variability and prevalent cardiovascular disease (CVD) in OSA patients. METHODS Participants underwent polysomongraphy to evaluate the presence of OSA, and 24 h-ambulatory blood pressure monitoring was a...
OBJECTIVE To study a possible association between obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) severity, managed with noninvasive ventilation, and nonalcoholic steatohepatitis (NASH) in bariatric surgical patients. METHODS Medical records of 218 bariatric surgical patients who underwent liver biopsy were reviewed. OSA severity was determined from preoperative polysomnography (apnea-hypopnea index (AHI) ≤ 15...
Purpose. To evaluate alteration in serum TSH in hypertensives with OSA and its relation with cardiometabolic risk factors. Methods. 517 hypertensives were cross-sectionally studied. OSA was determined by polysomnography and thyroid function by standard methods. Results. OSA was diagnosed in 373 hypertensives (72.15%). Prevalence of subclinical hypothyroidism was significantly higher in OSA hype...
BACKGROUND Inflammation is associated with obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) and coronary heart disease (CHD). Ghrelin, a multifunctional hormone, may play a key role in patients with OSA and/or CHD. The aim of this study was to investigate plasma ghrelin and pro-inflammatory cytokines in patients with OSA and /or CHD and assess the association of these cytokines with ghrelin. MATERIAL AND METHOD...
The majority of male patients with obstructive sleep apnoea (OSA) have an abnormal pharyngeal structure and function, with episodic complete airway occlusion during sleep. Since OSA is less common in females than in males, it is possible that other abnormalities are active in female patients with OSA. Consequently, we measured pharyngeal area and its lung volume-related changes (LVRC) from func...
PURPOSE Resistant hypertension (HTN) occurs in 15-20% of treated hypertensive patients, and 70-80% of resistant hypertensive patients have obstructive sleep apnea (OSA). The characteristics of resistant HTN that predispose patients to OSA have not been reported. Therefore, we aimed to determine the clinical, laboratory, and polysomnographic features of resistant HTN that are significantly assoc...
Obstructive sleep apnoea (OSA) is characterised by repetitive closure of the upper airway, repetitive oxygen desaturations and sleep fragmentation. The prevalence of adult OSA is increasing because of a worldwide increase in obesity and the ageing of populations. OSA presents with a variety of symptoms the most prominent of which are snoring and daytime tiredness. Interestingly though, a signif...
This paper generalizes many-sorted algebra (hereafter, MSA) to order-sorted algebra (hereafter, OSA) by allowing a partial ordering relation on the set of sorts. This supports abstract data types with multiple inheritance (in roughly the sense of object-oriented programming), several forms of polymorphism and overloading, partial operations (as total on equationally deened subsorts), exception ...
