Association between obstructive sleep apnea and cardiovascular diseases
Acta Biochim Biophys Sin (Shanghai). 2022 Jul 25. doi: 10.3724/abbs.2022084. Online ahead of print.ABSTRACTObstructive sleep apnea (OSA) is a common respiratory disorder characterized by partial obstruction of upper respiratory tract and repetitive cessation of breathing during sleep. The etiology behind OSA is associated with the occurrence of intermittent hypoxemia, recurrent arousals and intrathoracic pressure swings. These contributing factors may turn on various signaling mechanisms including elevated sympathetic tone, oxidative stress, inflammation, endothelial dysfunction, cardiovascular variability, abnormal coagul...

Management of Adult Chiari I Patients Based on CSF Flow Magnetic Resonance Imaging: Experience of Two Neurosurgical Centers
Conclusions PC-MRI can help in the management and follow-up of adult CM1 patients. Conservative management is possible in selected symptomatic CM1 patients with a high ASV (ASV > 15 µL). Surgery should be considered in patients with an ASV ≤ 12 µL. CM1 patients with ASV ≤12 to >15 μL require close follow-up. Long-standing symptoms, severe sleep apnea, symptoms influencing functionality, and syrinx are factors that affected outcomes negatively.

Positive Airway Pressure Adherence, Mortality and Cardio-Vascular Events in Sleep Apnea Patients
CONCLUSIONS: These real-life clinical data demonstrate a dose-response relationship between PAP adherence and incident MACEs in OSA. Patients support program may help improve PAP adherence and CV outcomes in patients with OSA.PMID:35816570 | DOI:10.1164/rccm.202202-0366OC

Prevalence and associated factors of obstructive sleep apnea in refractory hypertension
Conclusion: In this large RHT cohort, resistant and refractory hypertensive patients have similar OSA prevalence, although refractory ones, which by definition use spironolactone, are younger and apparently have a better sleep pattern.

Stroke: What's Sleep Got to Do With It?
Summary: Ischemic strokes most often occur between 6 am and 12 am after awakening from sleep but up to 30% occur during sleep. Wake-up strokes (WUS) are new focal neurological deficit(s) persisting for ≥ 24 hours attributable to an ischemic event present on patient awakening. Obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) is a major risk factor for WUS because it compounds the instability of the morning environment and increases the likelihood of cardiovascular events, including hypertension, atrial fibrillation, right-to-left shunts, and stroke. Circadian-driven alterations in structural, homeostatic, and serological factors also pr...

Impact of sleep apnea and treatments on cardiovascular disease
Sleep Sci. 2022 Apr-Jun;15(2):250-258. doi: 10.5935/1984-0063.20220047.ABSTRACTCardiovascular diseases (CVDs) are the leading causes of mortality worldwide, accounting for nearly 18 million deaths per year. Among other considerations, treating CVDs requires better understanding their risk factors. Sleep-disordered breathing, especially obstructive sleep apnea (OSA), is a likely contributor to several CVDs. We review key epidemiological data that addresses the link between OSA and cardiovascular outcomes such as hypertension, atrial fibrillation (AF), stroke, atherosclerosis, and heart failure (HF), and proposed pathophysio...

Preoperative preparation and premedication of bariatric surgical patient
Marina Varbanova, Brittany Maggard, Rainer LenhardtSaudi Journal of Anaesthesia 2022 16(3):287-298 The prevalence of obesity has tripled worldwide over the past four decades. The United States has the highest rates of obesity, with 88% of the population being overweight and 36% obese. The UK has the sixth highest prevalence of obesity. The problem of obesity is not isolated to the developed world and has increasingly become an issue in the developing world as well. Obesity carries an increased risk of many serious diseases and health conditions, including type 2 diabetes, heart disease, stroke, sleep...

Cardiovascular remodeling in obstructive sleep apnea: focus on arterial stiffness, left ventricular geometry and atrial fibrillation
We present an overview of the definition, prevalence, and risk factors of OSA and outline the association between OSA and cardiovascular complications. We then briefly discuss echocardiographic assessment in OSA with focus on the left atrium and LV. Finally, we highlight the importance of adherence to continuous positive airway pressure (CPAP) therapy with regard to reducing the risk of cardiovascular disease.EXPERT COMMENTARY: Although OSA has a strong association with cardiovascular complications, it is often underdiagnosed and undertreated. Patients with resistant hypertension and atrial fibrillation with poor therapeut...
