Improved In-Hospital Mortality for Patients With Known OSA Admitted for MI
Patients admitted to the hospital for myocardial infarction with a known diagnosis of obstructive sleep apnea were found to have improved in-hospital mortality.
Obstructive Sleep Apnea
Obstructive Sleep Apnea Increases Cardiac Remodeling in Resistant Hypertension
Obstructive sleep apnea increases left ventricular hypertrophy in patients with treatment-resistant hypertension.
OSA Increases CKD Risk in Recovered Acute Cardiogenic Pulmonary Edema
Obstructive sleep apnea increases the risk for chronic kidney disease in patients who have recovered from an episode of acute cardiogenic pulmonary edema.
Longer Sleep Duration in OSA Linked to Higher Coronary Artery Calcium Scores
The interaction between obstructive sleep apnea and long sleep duration was associated with a nearly 3-fold chance of having a coronary artery calcium score of >100.
Obstructive Sleep Apnea Symptom Subtypes Identified Using Novel Algorithm
A simple, efficient algorithm has been developed that will help to classify symptom subtypes among patients with obstructive sleep apnea based on only 6 symptom items.
Researchers Search for Link Between Sleep Apnea and Mood Disorders
Researchers investigated whether obstructive sleep apnea and mood disorders are linked.
Link Between Lesion Location and Obstructive Sleep Apnea in Multiple Sclerosis
The risk for development of obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) and the severity of disease in patients with multiple sclerosis (MS) may be affected by the location of the lesions.
Obstructive Sleep Apnea Prevalence High in Resistant Hypertension
Patients with severe obstructive sleep apnea had higher blood pressure values than those with mild-to-moderate OSA or individuals without OSA.
CPAP vs NIV for Ambulatory Patients With Obesity Hypoventilation Syndrome
Continuous positive airway pressure may be a preferred alternative to noninvasive ventilation as first-line therapy in stable ambulatory patients with obesity hypoventilation syndrome and concurrent severe obstructive sleep apnea.
Improving BP in OSA: Positive Airway Pressure vs Upper Airway Stimulation
Patients with obstructive sleep apnea who received positive airway pressure therapy had greater improvements in blood pressure compared with those who received upper airway stimulation.
