Gastroesophageal reflux and snoring are related to asthma and respiratory symptoms: Results from a Nordic longitudinal population survey
CONCLUSION: The risk of developing asthma and respiratory symptoms is increased among subjects with nGER and habitual snoring. These associations are independent of each other and confounding factors. Snoring and nGER together are additive on respiratory symptoms.PMID:38101459 | DOI:10.1016/j.rmed.2023.107495 (Source: Respiratory Care)

Genetic Association of Allergic Rhinitis with Sleep and Neuropsychological Disorders: A Mendelian Randomization Study
CONCLUSION: AR (specifically AR caused by pollen) might be an independent risk factor for snoring at the genetic level, which should be verified in the future.PMID:38093177 | DOI:10.1177/19458924231220763 (Source: American Journal of Rhinology and Allergy)

Snoring in patients with  chronic rhinosinusitis after endoscopic sinus surgery
CONCLUSIONS: Post-ESS, self-reported snoring was associated with worse CRS QOL. Obesity and PE/AE > 1 were risk factors of pre-operative snoring. Advanced age and bilateral opacification were associated with greater improvement of snoring after ESS.PMID:38091242 | DOI:10.1007/s11325-023-02957-3 (Source: Sleep and Breathing)

Gastroesophageal reflux and snoring are related to asthma and respiratory symptoms: Results from a Nordic longitudinal population survey
To study if individuals with nocturnal gastroesophageal reflux (nGER) and habitual snoring are more likely to develop asthma and respiratory symptoms (i.e. wheeze, cough, chest tightness, breathlessness) than those without these conditions, and if these associations are additive.

Sleep inequities and associations between poor sleep and mental health for school-aged children: findings from the New Zealand Health Survey
Sleep Adv. 2023 Nov 18;4(1):zpad049. doi: 10.1093/sleepadvances/zpad049. eCollection 2023.ABSTRACTIn Aotearoa/New Zealand, ethnic inequities in sleep health exist for young children and adults and are largely explained by inequities in socioeconomic deprivation. Poor sleep is related to poor mental health for these age groups but whether sleep inequities and associations with mental health exist for school-aged children is unclear. We aimed to (1) determine the prevalence of poor sleep health including sleep problems by ethnicity, (2) examine social determinants of health associated with poor sleep, and (3) investigate rel...

Treatment of the Nose for Patients with Sleep Apnea
Nasal obstruction is common in patients with obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) and may variably impact symptoms and severity of OSA. It is associated with decreased continuous positive airway pressure (CPAP) compliance, and both medical and surgical management of nasal obstruction have resulted in increased CPAP adherence. Treatment of OSA with comorbid rhinitis via topical nasal steroids demonstrates a beneficial impact on daytime sleepiness. Isolated nasal surgery has been shown to result in decreased daytime sleepiness and snoring, with minimal effect on OSA severity. (Source: Otolaryngologic clinics of North America)
