Do you have restless leg syndrome? I understood from your eyesSleep and Breathing - Tập 23 - Trang 551-557 - 2018
Hatice Kose Ozlece, Volkan Solmaz, Sadık Altan Özal, Yahya Çelik
According to many studies in the literature, there is a strong association between restless leg syndrome and dopaminergic dysfunction. Dopamine is also the major catecholamine in the retina and is also a possible transmitter of the amacrine and interplexiform cells. The aim of this study is to investigate the possible association between RLS and retinal thickness. In this study, we included 33 pat...... hiện toàn bộ
Patient preferences in obstructive sleep apnea—a discrete choice experimentSleep and Breathing - Tập 26 - Trang 1717-1727 - 2022
Marcel Braun, Sarah Dietz-Terjung, Christian Taube, Christoph Schoebel
Obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) is one of the most common chronic sleep disorders, which can be treated by different interventions. It is known that acceptance and adherence to these therapies is influenced by a variety of factors. However, there is a limited understanding of patient preferences and decision-making in the context of OSA treatment. A discrete choice experiment was conducted on patien...... hiện toàn bộ
Autophagy and hippocampal neuronal injurySleep and Breathing - Tập 18 - Trang 243-249 - 2014
Lulu Li, Qiang Zhang, Jin Tan, Yunyun Fang, Xu An, Baoyuan Chen
Autophagy is a specific universal biological phenomenon in eukaryotic cells, which is characterized by cytoplasmic vacuoles in the process of degrading cellular contents in lysosomes. The hippocampus plays an important role in higher nervous activities such as emotional integration, cognition, and memory. As an area closely related to learning and memory functions of the brain, the hippocampus is ...... hiện toàn bộ
Does nocturnal use of a complete denture interfere with the degree of obstructive sleep apnea? A systematic review and meta-analysisSleep and Breathing - Tập 25 - Trang 2289-2296 - 2021

The impact of a complete denture on obstructive sleep apnea is not well understood. Therefore, this study aimed to evaluate the relationship between nighttime use of complete dentures and obstructive sleep apnea and determine if wearing a complete denture during sleep changes the degree of obstructive sleep apnea. This systematic review followed the notification items for Preferred Reporting Items...... hiện toàn bộ
Tracheostomy decannulation to noninvasive positive pressure ventilation in congenital central hypoventilation syndromeSleep and Breathing - Tập 26 - Trang 133-139 - 2021
Ajay S. Kasi, Neesha Anand, Kelli-Lee Harford, April M. Landry, Kristan P. Alfonso, Melissa Taylor, Thomas G. Keens, Roberta M. Leu
Noninvasive positive pressure ventilation (NPPV) may permit tracheostomy decannulation (TD) in patients with congenital central hypoventilation syndrome (CCHS) requiring nocturnal positive pressure ventilation via tracheostomy (PPV-T). There is limited evidence on optimal strategies for transitioning patients from PPV-T to NPPV. This study aimed to describe the clinical course and outcome of child...... hiện toàn bộ
Cross motor innervation of the hypoglossal nerve—a pilot study of predictors for successful opening of the soft palateSleep and Breathing - Tập 25 - Trang 425-431 - 2020
Clemens Heiser, Olivier M. Vanderveken, Günther M. Edenharter, Benedikt Hofauer
Selective hypoglossal nerve stimulation has proven to be a successful treatment option in patients with obstructive sleep apnea. The aim of this pilot study was to investigate if there is a cross-innervation of the hypoglossal nerve in humans and if patients with this phenotype show a different response to hypoglossal nerve stimulation compared to those with ipsilateral-only innervation Nineteen p...... hiện toàn bộ
