Up-to-date advance in the relationship between OSA and stroke: a narrative review
ConclusionBoth the onset and recurrence of stroke closely correlated with OSA, but the specific mechanisms remain unclear. Further studies should be carried out to explore effective treatments in patients with stroke and OSA.

Association between REM-related mild obstructive sleep apnea and common cardiometabolic diseases
ConclusionCommon CMDs, particularly HT, tend to show an association with REM-OSA in patients with mild OSA, but this association did not reach statistically significant levels.

Effects of inspiratory muscle training on the severity of obstructive sleep apnea in individuals after stroke: a protocol for a randomized controlled trial
This study will be a randomized controlled trial with blinded assessors. Forty individuals after stroke will randomized to two groups. For 5 weeks, both groups will participate in the rehabilitation program activities, including aerobic exercise, resistance training, and educational class when they will receive guidance on the behavioral management of OSA. The experimental group will also perform high-intensity IMT 5 times a week, for 5 weeks, consisting initially of five sets of five repetitions achieving 75% of the maximal inspiratory pressure, increasing one set each week, totaling nine sets at the end of trainin...

Prognostic Implications of Obstructive Sleep Apnea in Acute Coronary Syndrome by Obesity Status
Chest. 2023 Feb 8:S0012-3692(23)00173-3. doi: 10.1016/j.chest.2023.02.001. Online ahead of print.ABSTRACTBACKGROUND: A close relationship exists between obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) and obesity. The impact of obesity on the prognostic significance of OSA in patients with acute coronary syndrome (ACS) remains unclear.RESEARCH QUESTION: Whether the effects of OSA on subsequent cardiovascular events in ACS patients vary with obesity status?STUDY DESIGN AND METHODS: This is a prospective cohort study. Patients aged 18 to 85 years and hospitalized for ACS were consecutively enrolled and underwent portable sleep monitoring afte...

Factors associated with residual apnea-hypopnea index variability during continuous positive airway pressure treatment
Chest. 2023 Jan 12:S0012-3692(23)00040-5. doi: 10.1016/j.chest.2022.12.048. Online ahead of print.ABSTRACTBACKGROUND: Continuous positive airway pressure (CPAP) is the first-line therapy for obstructive sleep apnea (OSA). A high or variable residual apnea-hypopnea index (rAHI) reflects treatment failure and is potentially triggered by exacerbation of cardiovascular comorbidities. Previous studies showed that high rAHI and large rAHI variability are associated with underlying comorbidities, OSA characteristics at diagnosis, and CPAP equipment including mask type and settings.RESEARCH QUESTION: What are the factors associate...

Comorbidities in patients with Obstructive Sleep Apnea syndrome (OSAS) in Reunion Island.
Conclusion: Morbid obesity, hypertension, diabetes, heart disease and respiratory illness are a predictor of severe OSAS in our patients especially snorers.

Hospitalizations in OSA patients
Obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) is associated with cardiovascular comorbidities and other chronic diseases, accounting for long-term morbidity, with elevated symptomatic burden and hospitalizations. We aim to study the hospitalizations' causes in OSA patients and its relation to OSA severity and PAP therapy adhesion.This is a retrospective study including 281 hospitalizations corresponding to 200 OSA patients during 2019. Mean age 65 years, 67% were males, and 43,5% (n=87) had severe OSA; 85% patients under PAP; 60,4% (n=102) good adherent patients. Overlap with obesity hypoventilation syndrome (n=7) and COPD (n=48) was noti...

Obstructive sleep apnea and other predictors of postoperative complications after bariatric surgery
Conclusions: Prevalence of postoperative complications in bariatric surgery patients was low and untreated moderate to severe OSA was not predictor of prolonged hospital stay.
