Cheyne-Stokes respiration and cardiac arrhythmias are associated with increased morbidity and mortality in patients with chronic heart failure (CHF). Enhanced carotid body chemoreflex (CBC) sensitivity is associated with these abnormalities in CHF. Reduced carotid body (CB) nitric oxide and nitric oxide synthase (NOS) levels play an important role in the enhanced CBC. In other disease models, S...
Sleep apnea in craniofacial surgery was investigated. Between January 1999 and December 2003, 18 patients were measured at an at least 6-month interval before and after surgery. Eight patients underwent palatoplasty for cleft palate, and the other 10 patients underwent orthognathic surgery, syndromic craniosynostosis, and postpharyngeal flap surgery. All patients included in the study demonstra...

Introduction: The Berlin questionnaire (BQ) is a common tool to screen for Obstructive Sleep Apnea (OSA) in the general population, but its application in the clinical sleep setting is still challenging. The aim of this study was to determine the specificity and sensitivity of the BQ compared to the apnea-hypopnea index obtained from polysomnography recordings obtained from ...
OBJECTIVES/HYPOTHESIS To determine if supraglottoplasty (SGP) is effective in reversing abnormal respiratory parameters in children with laryngomalacia and obstructive sleep apnea (OSA). STUDY DESIGN Retrospective case series at a tertiary referral children's hospital. METHODS Ten patients with laryngomalacia and OSA as documented by polysomnography underwent SGP between 2005 and 2007. Data...
BACKGROUND The relationship between sleep and mood regulation is well known, and some reports suggest a key role of sleep-related breathing disorders (SRBD) in the development of the symptomatology of depression, even if no conclusive data are actually found in the clinical literature. The aim of this study was to assess the relationship between SRBD and depressive symptoms in a population of s...
OBJECTIVE To compare the polygraphic parameters in children with adenotonsillar hypertrophy (ATH) with vs without obstructive sleep apnea (OSA). DESIGN Prospective controlled study. SETTING Hospital-based pediatric otolaryngology practice. PATIENTS Children with ATH. INTERVENTIONS The children enrolled in the study underwent polysomnography. According to the apnea index (AI) (a patient ...
