BMC Public Health 2024; 24:1998. [PMID: 39060945 DOI: 10.1186/s12889-024-19540-4] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 05/27/2024] [Accepted: 07/19/2024] [Indexed: 07/28/2024] Open
Abstract
BACKGROUND Obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) and osteoporosis (OP) are prevalent diseases in the elderly. This study aims to reveal the clinical association between OSA and OP and explore potential crosstalk gene targets. METHODS Participants diagnosed with OSA in the National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey (NHANES) database (2015-2020) were included, and OP was diagnosed based on bone mineral density (BMD). We explored the association between OSA and OP, and utilized multivariate logistic regression analysis and machine learning algorithms to explore the risk factors for OP in OSA patients. Overlapping genes of comorbidity were explored using differential expression analysis, Gene Ontology (GO), Kyoto Encyclopedia of Genes and Genomes (KEGG) enrichment analysis, Least Absolute Shrinkage and Selection Operator (LASSO) regression, and Random Forest (RF) methods. RESULTS In the OSA population, the weighted prevalence of OP was 7.0%. The OP group had more females, lower body mass index (BMI), and more low/middle-income individuals compared to the non-OP group. Female gender and lower BMI were identified as independent risk factors for OP in OSA patients. Gene expression profiling revealed 8 overlapping differentially expressed genes in OP and OSA patients. KCNJ1, NPR3 and WT1-AS were identified as shared diagnostic biomarkers or OSA and OP, all of which are associated with immune cell infiltration. CONCLUSION This study pinpointed female gender and lower BMI as OP risk factors in OSA patients, and uncovered three pivotal genes linked to OSA and OP comorbidity, offering fresh perspectives and research targets.

Abstract
Objectives Obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) and osteoarthritis (OA) are common comorbidities that significantly impact individuals' quality of life. However, the relationship between OSA and OA remains unclear. This study aims to explore the connection between OSA and OA and evaluate causality using Mendelian randomization (MR). Methods A total of 12,454 participants from the National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey (2009-2012) were included. OSA participants were identified based on self-reported interviews. The association between OA and OSA was assessed through multivariable logistic regression analysis. A two-sample MR was employed to investigate the relationship between OSA and OA, specifically hip OA and knee OA, utilizing the inverse variance-weighted (IVW) approach. Results Based on the observational study, individuals with OSA exhibited a higher risk of OA (OR = 1.67, 95% CI = 1.40-1.98). IVW demonstrated that the risk of OA (OR = 1.13, 95% CI: 1.05-1.21, p = 0.001), hip OA (OR = 1.11, 95% CI: 1.04-1.18, p = 0.002), and knee OA (OR = 1.08, 95% CI: 1.02-1.14, p = 0.005) was significantly associated with OSA. Reverse MR analyses indicated no effect of OA on OSA. Additionally, body mass index (BMI) was found to mediate 36.9% (95% CI, 4.64-73.2%, p = 0.026) of the OSA effects on OA risk. Conclusion The cross-sectional observational analysis unveiled noteworthy associations between OSA and OA. Meanwhile, findings from the MR study provide support for a causal role.

Abstract
Background Obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) had a high prevalence in the population. Whether OSA increases the risk of amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS) is unknown. Our aim was to clarify this issue using two-sample Mendelian randomization (MR) analysis in a large cohort. Methods Two-sample MR was used to evaluate the potential causality between OSA and ALS by selecting single-nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) as instrumental variables (IVs) from genome-wide association studies (GWAS). The inverse-variance weighted (IVW) method was chosen as the primary method to estimate causal association. Weighted median, weighted mode and simple mode methods were used as sensitivity analyses to ensure the robustness of the results. Results In MR analysis, IVW mode showed genetic liability to OSA was found to be significantly associated with a higher ALS risk (OR, 1.220; 95% confidence interval, 1.031-1.443; p = 0.021). No evidence of heterogeneity and horizontal pleiotropy were suggested. Conclusion We found potential evidence for a causal effect of OSA on an increased risk of ALS.

[PMID: 38600516 PMCID: PMC11005189 DOI: 10.1186/s12944-024-02081-5] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 02/16/2024] [Accepted: 03/18/2024] [Indexed: 04/12/2024] Open
Abstract
BACKGROUND Obesity refers to a significant contributor to the development of obstructive sleep apnea (OSA). Early prediction of OSA usually leads to better treatment outcomes, and this study aims to employ novel metabolic markers, visceral adiposity index (VAI), and lipid accumulation product (LAP) to evaluate the relationship to OSA. METHODS The data used in the current cross-sectional investigation are from the National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey (NHANES), which was carried out between 2015 and 2018. To examine the correlation between LAP and VAI levels and OSA, multivariate logistic regression analysis was adopted. In addition, various analytical methods were applied, including subgroup analysis, smooth curve fitting, and threshold effect analysis. RESULTS Among totally 3932 participants, 1934 were included in the OSA group. The median (Q1-Q3) values of LAP and VAI for the participants were 40.25 (21.51-68.26) and 1.27 (0.75-2.21), respectively. Logistic regression studies indicated a positive correlation between LAP, VAI, and OSA risk after adjusting for potential confounding variables. Subgroup analysis revealed a stronger correlation between LAP, VAI levels, and OSA among individuals aged < 60 years. Through smooth curve fitting, specific saturation effects of LAP, VAI, and BMD were identified, with inflection points at 65.684 and 0.428, respectively. CONCLUSION This study demonstrates that elevated levels of LAP and VAI increase the risk of OSA, suggesting their potential as predictive markers for OSA and advocating for dietary and exercise interventions to mitigate OSA risk in individuals with high LAP and VAI levels.

Toxicol Appl Pharmacol 2024; 485:116909. [PMID: 38521370 DOI: 10.1016/j.taap.2024.116909] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 02/12/2024] [Revised: 03/11/2024] [Accepted: 03/19/2024] [Indexed: 03/25/2024]
Abstract
BACKGROUND Obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) is considered to be an important contributor of dyslipidemia. However, there lacks observational studies focusing on the potential effect of lipid management on OSA risk. Thus, we aimed to investigate the genetic association of lipid-modifying therapy with risk of OSA. METHODS A drug-target mendelian randomization (MR) study using both cis-variants and cis-expression quantitative trait loci (eQTLs) of lipid-modifying drug targets was performed. The MR analyses used summary-level data of genome wide association studies (GWAS). Primary MR analysis was conducted using inverse-variance-weighted (IVW) method. Sensitivity analysis was performed using weighted median (WM) and MR-pleiotropy residual sum and outlier (MR-PRESSO) methods. RESULTS Genetically proxied low-density lipoprotein cholesterol (LDL-C)-lowering effect of cholesteryl ester transfer protein (CETP) was associated with reduced risk of OSA (odds ratio [OR] =0.75, 95% confidence interval [CI]: 0.60-0.94, false discovery rate [FDR] q value = 0.046). A significant MR association with risk of OSA was observed for CETP expression in subcutaneous adipose tissue (OR = 0.94, 95%CI: 0.89-1.00, FDR q value = 0.049), lung (OR = 0.94, 95%CI: 0.89-1.00, FDR q value = 0.049) and small intestine (OR = 0.96, 95%CI: 0.93-1.00, FDR q value = 0.049). No significant effects of high-density lipoprotein cholesterol (HDL-C)-raising effect of CETP inhibition, LDL-C-lowering and triglycerides-lowering effect of other drug targets on OSA risk were observed. CONCLUSIONS The present study presented genetic evidence supporting the association of LDL-C-lowering therapy by CETP inhibition with reduced risk of OSA. These findings provided novel insights into the role of lipid management in patients with OSA and encouraged further clinical validations and mechanistic investigations.

A novel TASK channel antagonist nasal spray reduces sleep apnea severity in physiological responders: a randomized, blinded, trial. Am J Physiol Heart Circ Physiol 2024; 326:H715-H723. [PMID: 38214905 DOI: 10.1152/ajpheart.00541.2023] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 09/01/2023] [Revised: 12/25/2023] [Accepted: 12/28/2023] [Indexed: 01/13/2024]
Abstract
Preclinical and human physiological studies indicate that topical, selective TASK 1/3 K+ channel antagonism increases upper airway dilator muscle activity and reduces pharyngeal collapsibility during anesthesia and nasal breathing during sleep. The primary aim of this study was to determine the effects of BAY2586116 nasal spray on obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) severity and whether individual responses vary according to differences in physiological responses and route of breathing. Ten people (5 females) with OSA [apnea-hypopnea index (AHI) = 47 ± 26 events/h (means ± SD)] who completed previous sleep physiology studies with BAY2586116 were invited to return for three polysomnography studies to quantify OSA severity. In random order, participants received either placebo nasal spray (saline), BAY2586116 nasal spray (160 µg), or BAY2586116 nasal spray (160 µg) restricted to nasal breathing (chinstrap or mouth tape). Physiological responders were defined a priori as those who had improved upper airway collapsibility (critical closing pressure ≥2 cmH2O) with BAY2586116 nasal spray (NCT04236440). There was no systematic change in apnea-hypopnea index (AHI3) from placebo versus BAY2586116 with either unrestricted or nasal-only breathing versus placebo (47 ± 26 vs. 43 ± 27 vs. 53 ± 33 events/h, P = 0.15). However, BAY2586116 (unrestricted breathing) reduced OSA severity in physiological responders compared with placebo (e.g., AHI3 = 28 ± 11 vs. 36 ± 12 events/h, P = 0.03 and ODI3 = 18 ± 10 vs. 28 ± 12 events/h, P = 0.02). Morning blood pressure was also lower in physiological responders after BAY2586116 versus placebo (e.g., systolic blood pressure = 137 ± 24 vs. 147 ± 21 mmHg, P < 0.01). In conclusion, BAY2586116 reduces OSA severity during sleep in people who demonstrate physiological improvement in upper airway collapsibility. These findings highlight the therapeutic potential of this novel pharmacotherapy target in selected individuals.NEW & NOTEWORTHY Preclinical findings in pigs and humans indicate that blocking potassium channels in the upper airway with topical nasal application increases pharyngeal dilator muscle activity and reduces upper airway collapsibility. In this study, BAY2586116 nasal spray (potassium channel blocker) reduced sleep apnea severity in those who had physiological improvement in upper airway collapsibility. BAY2586116 lowered the next morning's blood pressure. These findings highlight the potential for this novel therapeutic approach to improve sleep apnea in certain people.

Abstract
Despite the high prevalence and significant health burden of obstructive sleep apnea (OSA), its underlying pathophysiology remains incompletely understood. This comprehensive review explores the emerging connection between vitamin D deficiency and OSA, discusses potential mechanisms underlying this association, and explores the therapeutic implications of these findings. Recent research has consistently highlighted the high incidence of vitamin D deficiency among patients with OSA, which often occurs independently of geographical location. This suggests that factors beyond lack of sunlight exposure may be involved. This review also discusses how reduced vitamin D may be associated with more severe manifestations of OSA. In addition, it explores the potentiality of using vitamin D supplements as a therapeutic strategy for OSA, noting that some studies have found improvements in sleep quality and a reduction in OSA severity. Potential mechanisms are proposed, including the role of vitamin D deficiency in promoting inflammation, oxidative stress, hypoxia, impairing immune function, muscle function, and gene polymorphism of vitamin D receptors, all of which could contribute to the pathogenesis of obstructive sleep apnea. The paper underscores the need for future research to validate these observations, to determine optimal vitamin D supplementation dosage and duration, to explore potential side effects and risks, and to investigate potential interactions with other treatments.

Abstract
Background Obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) is a common chronic disease with various comorbidities. The cardiometabolic index (CMI) reflects visceral fat tissue distribution and function, assessing the risk of obesity-related conditions such as metabolic syndrome (MetS) and stroke, which are strongly connected to OSA. The relationship between CMI with OSA and OSA combined with MetS (OMS) remains unclear. This study aims to evaluate the screening value of CMI for OSA and OMS, compared to the lipid accumulation product (LAP). Methods A total of 280 participants who underwent polysomnography were finally included, with the measurements of metabolic-related laboratory test results such as total cholesterol and triglyceride. Receiver operating curve (ROC) analysis and calculation of the area under the curve (AUC) were conducted to assess the screening potential of CMI, LAP, and the logistic regression models established based on them for OSA and OMS. The Youden index, sensitivity, and specificity were used to determine the optimal cutoff points. Results ROC curve analysis revealed that the AUCs for CMI in screening OSA and OMS were 0.808 and 0.797, and the optimal cutoff values were 0.71 (sensitivity 0.797, specificity 0.776) and 0.89 (sensitivity 0.830, specificity 0.662), respectively, showing higher Youden index than LAP. The AUCs of screening models based on CMI for OSA and OMS were 0.887 and 0.824, respectively. Conclusion CMI and LAP can effectively screen for OSA and OMS, while CMI has more practical cutoff values for identifying the diseased states. Screening models based on CMI demonstrate a high discriminatory ability for OSA and OMS, which needs verification in a large-scale population.

Non-Pharmacological Intervention for Personalizing Sleep Quality through Gentle Rocking Motion. J Pers Med 2024; 14:218. [PMID: 38392651 PMCID: PMC10890667 DOI: 10.3390/jpm14020218] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 01/14/2024] [Revised: 02/09/2024] [Accepted: 02/16/2024] [Indexed: 02/24/2024] Open
Abstract
INTRODUCTION Achieving restorative sleep is crucial for overall well-being, yet sleep difficulties affect a substantial portion of the adult population. Sleep disturbances are associated with diminished quality of life, physical complaints, cognitive impairment, and emotional regulation challenges. OBJECTIVE This study explores the influence of an innovative experimental bed designed to generate rocking motions on sleep parameters. METHODS A prospective observational study enrolled 60 adult participants, assessing their sleep on a regular stationary bed and the Inoveris bed, providing gentle rocking movements. Polysomnography was conducted, recording electroencephalography, electrooculogram, electromyogram, respiratory effort, and other parameters. RESULTS The rocking bed significantly increased total sleep time (TST) and reduced N1 sleep stage duration (p < 0.001). Participants also experienced a quicker transition to the N2 sleep stage (p = 0.01), indicative of a faster shift from wakefulness to deeper sleep. Additionally, rocking led to a higher percentage of N1 sleep stages (p = 0.01) and a significant increase in N3 sleep stage duration (p = 0.004). While some results lacked statistical significance, notable trends in the rocking bed group have clinical relevance, consistently improving sleep parameters, including increased TST. The rocking bed also showed a trend towards higher sleep efficiency (SE) and sleep duration percentage, hinting at a potential overall enhancement in sleep quality. CONCLUSION This study contributes valuable insights into the potential benefits of rocking motions on sleep architecture. Despite variations in outcomes across studies, our results underscore the potential of rocking beds as a non-pharmacological intervention for enhancing sleep quality. Notable improvements in total sleep time (TST), N1 sleep stage reduction, and accelerated transitions to deeper sleep stages highlight the clinical relevance of rocking interventions. Further research, collaboration, and addressing the identified limitations will advance our understanding of the therapeutic applications of rocking motions in sleep science.

Abstract
Despite the impact of metabolic syndrome (MetS) and obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) on a sizeable proportion of the global population, the difference in the quality of life (QoL) between a group without risk factors for OSA and a group with risk factors for OSA among individuals with MetS is currently unclear. This study aimed to identify the determinants of QoL in patients with MetS with and without OSA risk factors and to analyze differences between these two groups. Data were extracted from the 2020 Korea National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey (KNHANES). The Rao-Scott χ2 test was performed to evaluate differences in baseline characteristics based on OSA risk factors. A t-test was performed to evaluate differences in the baseline QoL, and linear regression analysis was performed to identify the effect on the QoL of the two groups. The factors affecting QoL in the low-risk group included age, education level, and depression. The factors affecting QoL in the high-risk group were physical activity and depression. These results suggest that nursing interventions should be devised according to patients' characteristics to help improve their QoL.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Sporadic studies have examined the impact of OSA on ACS patients by homocysteine (Hcy) level. This study attempted to comprehensively evaluate the effects of the interaction between Hcy and OSA on long-term cardiovascular outcomes in ACS patients. METHODS In this prospective, large-scale cohort study, 2160 patients admitted for ACS were recruited to undergo overnight sleep monitoring. OSA was diagnosed when apnea-hypopnea index ≥ 15 events/h. Patients with normohomocysteinemia (NHcy) were defined as having serum Hcy ≤ 15 μmol/L, and the others had hyperhomocysteinemia (HHcy). The primary endpoint was major adverse cerebrocardiovascular event (MACCE), a composite of cardiovascular death, myocardial infarction, stroke, ischemia-driven revascularization and hospitalization for unstable angina and heart failure. RESULTS A total of 1553 eligible ACS patients (average age: 56.3 ± 10.5 years) were enrolled, among which 819 (52.7%) had OSA, and 988 (63.6%) were with NHcy. OSA did not significantly affect the level of Hcy. During a median follow-up of 2.9 (1.6, 3.5) years, after adjustment for clinical confounders, OSA was associated with increased risk for MACCE occurrence versus non-OSA ones in ACS patients with NHcy (adjusted hazard ratio [HR] = 1.36, 95% confidence interval [CI] 1.02-1.83, P = 0.039), but not in those with HHcy (adjusted HR = 0.92, 95%CI 0.62-1.36, P = 0.668). There was an absence of interaction between homocysteine level and OSA in relation to MACCE (interaction P = 0.106). CONCLUSIONS OSA was independently associated with worse prognosis in ACS patients with NHcy. Our study emphasized the necessity to identify potential presence of OSA in such a population.

Abstract
Metabolic syndrome (MetS) is an underlying cause of various diseases and is strongly associated with mortality. In particular, it has been steadily increasing along with changes in diet and lifestyle habits. The close relationship between sleep apnea and MetS is well established. In addition, these two diseases share a common factor of obesity and have a high prevalence among obese individuals. Nevertheless, the association can vary depending on factors, such as race and sex, and research on the relatively low obesity rates among East Asians is lacking. This study aimed to investigate the association between snoring and MetS in nonobese Koreans. A total of 2478 participants (827 men and 1651 women) were enrolled in the Korean National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey from 2019 to 2020. We used the National Cholesterol Education Program Adult Treatment Panel III criteria for MetS and a snoring questionnaire. Logistic regression analysis was used to measure the association between MetS and various confounding factors according to age and sex in participants with body mass index (BMI) < 23 kg/m2. MetS was significantly higher in participants with snoring than in those without snoring (26.9% vs. 19.6%; p = 0.007). In multivariate logistic regression analysis, age (odds ratio [OR] 1.070, 95% confidence interval [CI] 1.059-1.082, p < .001), sex (OR 1.531, 95% CI 1.139-2.058, p = 0.005), and snoring (OR 1.442, 95% CI 1.050-1.979, p = 0.024) were significantly associated with MetS in patients with a BMI < 23 kg/m2. Finally, regression analysis showed that snoring was significantly associated with MetS in women with a BMI of less than 23 kg/m2, especially with younger ages (40-49 years, OR 4.449, 95% CI 1.088 to 18.197, p = 0.038). Snoring was closely associated with MetS in women aged 40-50 years with a BMI of less than 23 kg/m2 compared to other participants. However, the association was not found in women aged 60 and over. Therefore, sufficient consideration should be given to the possibility of MetS when snoring is present in nonobese middle-aged Asian women.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE We evaluated the association between the triglyceride-glucose (TG) index, a marker of insulin resistance, and obstructive sleep apnoea (OSA) severity in patients without diabetes mellitus, obesity, and metabolic syndrome. METHODS This retrospective cohort study included 1,527 patients. We used univariate and multivariate analyses to identify the independent predictors associated with OSA. RESULTS Most patients were males (81.5%) with a mean age of 43.9 ± 11.1 (15-90) years. Based on the apnoea-hypopnea index (AHI), 353 (23.1%) patients were included in the control group, whereas 32.4%, 23.5%, and 21% had mild, moderate, and severe OSA, respectively. The TG index values demonstrated significant associations with OSA patients compared with the control group (p = 0.001). In addition, the mean values of the oxygen desaturation index (ODI), AHI, minimum oxygen saturation, and total sleep time percentage with saturation below 90% demonstrated statistically significant differences among the TG index groups (p: 0.001; p:0.001; p:0.001; p:0.003). The optimal TG index cutoff value to predict OSA was 8.615 (AUC = 0.638, 95% CI = 0.606-0.671, p = 0.001). In multivariate logistic regression analysis, after adjusting for age, sex, and body mass index, the TG index was independently associated with OSA patients. CONCLUSION The TG index is independently associated with increased risk for OSA. This indicates that this index, a marker for disease severity, can be used to identify severe OSA patients on waiting lists for PSG.

Abstract
BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVES Obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) is an independent risk factor for stroke. Furthermore, intracranial arterial calcification (IAC) has been validated as a marker for subclinical cerebrovascular disease. However, the relationship between OSA with IAC was less studied compared with its established association with coronary artery calcification. In this study, we aimed to investigate the association between the severity of OSA and the degree of IAC in hospitalized patients without preexisting cardiovascular disease. METHODS This hospital-based observational study was conducted from June 1, 2017, to May 1, 2019. In total, 901 consecutive patients who underwent head computed tomography scans and portable sleep monitoring were included. On the basis of the apnea-hypopnea index (AHI), patients were divided into four OSA severity groups (normal: AHI <5/h; mild: 5≤ AHI <15/h; moderate: 15≤ AHI <30/h; severe: AHI ≥30/h). Associations of OSA with IAC scores were assessed by using multivariate logistic regression analysis. RESULTS Of the 901 patients, 484 (53.7%) were men; the mean (SD) age was 66.1 (10.0) years. The non-OSA group included 207 (23.0%) patients; mild OSA, 209 (23.2%); moderate OSA, 235 (26.1%); and severe OSA, 169 (18.8%). Mean IAC scores were higher in the severe OSA group compared with non-, mild, and moderate OSA groups (4.79 vs. 2.58; 4.79 vs. 2.94; 4.79 vs. 3.39; p < 0.001). Multivariate analysis adjusted for confounding factors revealed that only severe OSA was associated with a higher IAC score (odds ratio [OR]: 1.65; 95% confidence interval [CI]: 1.43-1.91; p < 0.001). In stratified analyses by BMI, among participants with a BMI <25 kg/m2, the positive association between AHI values and IAC scores was found in the moderate OSA group (OR: 1.23; 95% CI: 1.05, 1.43; p = 0.01) and the severe OSA group (OR: 1.96; 95% CI: 1.55, 2.48; p < 0.001). When stratified by gender, in women, the positive association was found in the moderate OSA group (adjusted OR: 1.21; 95% CI: 1.02-1.51; p = 0.016) and the severe OSA group (adjusted OR: 1.76; 95% CI: 1.36-2.25; p < 0.001). For the men group, a positive association between IAC scores and AHI was only observed in the severe OSA group. DISCUSSION These findings suggest that OSA, in particular severe OSA (AHI ≥30), is independently associated with higher IAC scores. Women and no-obesity individuals appeared more susceptible to adverse OSA-related subclinical cerebrovascular disease as measured by IAC scores.
