Assessing the impact of continuous positive airway pressure therapy on clinical outcomes in interstitial lung disease patients with coexisting obstructive sleep apnea: a systematic review
CONCLUSION: CPAP therapy may improve outcomes in ILD-OSA patients, particularly in terms of quality of life and ILD exacerbations. Nonetheless, further research with standardized definitions and rigorous methodology is needed to confirm its efficacy, particularly regarding mortality outcome.PMID:38717714 | DOI:10.1007/s11325-024-03054-9 (Source: Sleep and Breathing)

Characteristics of obstructive sleep apnea related to insulin resistance
CONCLUSIONS: Intermittent hypoxia and disturbances in REM sleep emerge as main contributors to insulin resistance in OSA patients yet to experience diabetes onset.PMID:38717715 | DOI:10.1007/s11325-024-03040-1 (Source: Sleep and Breathing)

Cerebral perfusion is not impaired in persons with moderate obstructive sleep apnoea when awake
CONCLUSION: We conclude that cerebral perfusion is not impaired in people with moderate OSA and that cerebral flow regulatory mechanisms can cope with the adverse effects which occur in moderate OSA. This is an important factor in clinical decisions for prescription of continuous positive airway pressure therapy (CPAP).PMID:38717716 | DOI:10.1007/s11325-024-03048-7 (Source: Sleep and Breathing)

Gender differences in obstructive sleep apnea syndrome: a pilot study
CONCLUSIONS: Men were associated with a higher AHI when sleeping in the supine position and this may be useful to look for new therapeutic options in combination with or as an alternative to CPAP. BMI correlated positively with AHI in men and this should be considered to stimulate weight loss as the main treatment to reduce the number of apneas/hypopneas, as men also had less therapeutic adherence to CPAP in our study. Females presented a significantly higher frequency of hypopneas than men, as well as a lower number of desaturation events per hour (ODI): these differences in the nocturnal home sleep cardiorespiratory moni...

A study on pulmonary function in children with obstructive sleep apnea hypopnea syndrome
CONCLUSION: The pulmonary function of children with obstructive sleep apnea syndrome is impaired and varies in severity. There are significant differences in pulmonary function, underscoring the importance of monitoring pulmonary function in these children for clinical assessment and treatment prognosis.PMID:38717718 | DOI:10.1007/s11325-024-03043-y (Source: Sleep and Breathing)

The effect of PAP on UACR and metabolic indexes in patients with MS and OSAHS
CONCLUSIONS: PAP treatment can reduce UACR in patients with MS and OSAHS, and has the effect of improving metabolic disorders. The decrease of UACR in patients may be related to the decrease of visceral fat and the improvement of insulin resistance.PMID:38720150 | DOI:10.1007/s11325-024-03044-x (Source: Sleep and Breathing)

Telephone follow-up as a substitute for standard out-clinic follow-up in CPAP therapy for obstructive sleep apnea patients: a randomized controlled trial
CONCLUSION: TC might serve as substitute for SC in some part of the OSA population. If TC becomes a part of CPAP therapy management, it is important to consider patient characteristics and treatment-related issues to prevent decline in adherence.PMID:38720151 | DOI:10.1007/s11325-024-03045-w (Source: Sleep and Breathing)
