Abstract
Obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) is a chronic inflammatory disease characterized by partial or complete upper airway obstruction during sleep. We aimed to evaluate serum/plasma levels of several cytokines (interleukin [IL]-6, IL-12, IL-17, IL-18, and IL-23) in a systematic review meta-analysis in both adults and children with OSA compared with controls. We conducted a comprehensive search of 4 digital databases (PubMed, Web of Science, Scopus, and Cochrane Library) up until October 19, 2023, without any limitations. For our meta-analysis, we used Review Manager, version 5.3, and displayed the data as the standardized mean difference (SMD) and 95% confidence interval (CI) to assess the correlation between cytokine levels and OSA. We utilized Comprehensive Meta-Analysis version 3.0 software to conduct bias analyses, meta-regression, and sensitivity analyses. From 1881 records, 84 articles were included in the systematic review and meta-analysis. In adults, the pooled SMDs for IL-6 level were 0.79 (P value < 0.00001), for IL-17 level were 0.74 (P value = 0.14), and for IL-18 level were 0.43 (P value = 0.00002). In children, the pooled SMD for IL-6 was 1.10 (P value < 0.00001), for IL-12 was 0.47 (P value = 0.10), for IL-17 was 2.21 (a P value = 0.24), for IL-18 was 0.19 (P value = 0.07), and for IL-23 was 2.46 (P value < 0.0001). The subgroup analysis showed that the ethnicity, mean body mass index, and mean apnea-hypopnea index for IL-6 levels in adults and the ethnicity for IL-6 levels in children were effective factors in the pooled SMD. The findings of the trial sequential analysis revealed that adequate evidence has been obtained. The analysis of IL levels in adults and children with OSA compared with those without OSA revealed significant differences. In adults, IL-6 and IL-18 levels were significantly higher in the OSA group, while in children, only IL-6 and IL-23 levels were significantly elevated.

Abstract
Background: Cytokines may have a significant impact on sleep regulation. In this meta-analysis, we present the serum/plasma levels of tumor necrosis factor-alpha (TNF-α), interleukin (IL)-8, IL-1β, and interferon-gamma (IFN-γ) in both children and adults with obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) in comparison to controls. Methods: Four electronic databases were systematically searched (PubMed, Web of Science, Scopus, and Cochrane Library) through 19 October 2023, without any restrictions on language, date, age, and sex. We used Review Manager version 5.3 to perform meta-analysis and presented the data as standardized mean difference (SMD) and 95% confidence interval (CI) values to evaluate the relationships between the levels of cytokines and OSA. Results: A total of 102 articles (150 independent studies) were included in the meta-analysis. The pooled SMDs in adults were 1.42 (95%CI: 1.11, 1.73; p < 0.00001), 0.85 (95%CI: 0.40, 1.31; p = 0.0002), 0.69 (95%CI: 0.22, 1.16; p = 0.004), and 0.39 (95%CI: -0.37, 1.16; p = 0.31) for TNF-α, IL-8, IL-1β, and IFN-γ, respectively. The pooled SMDs in children were 0.84 (95%CI: 0.35, 1.33; p = 0.0008), 0.60 (95%CI: 0.46, 0.74; p < 0.00001), 0.25 (95%CI: -0.44, 0.93; p = 0.49), and 3.70 (95%CI: 0.75, 6.65; p = 0.01) for TNF-α, IL-8, IL-1β, and IFN-γ, respectively. Conclusions: The levels of proinflammatory cytokines of TNF-α, IL-8, and IL-1β in adults, and TNF-α, IL-8, and IFN-γ in children with OSA, are significantly higher than those in controls.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES Obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) is characterized by chronic systemic inflammation; however, the mechanisms underlying these pathologic consequences are incompletely understood. Our objective was to determine the effects of short- versus long-term exposure to intermittent hypoxia (IH) on pro-inflammatory mediators within vulnerable organs impacted by OSA. STUDY DESIGN Experimental animal study. METHODS A total of 8-10 week old C57BL/6J mice were exposed to normoxic or IH conditions for 7 days (short-term) or 6 weeks (long-term) under 12 h light, 12 h dark cycles. After exposure, multiple tissues were collected over a 24 h period. These tissues were processed and evaluated for gene expression and protein levels of pro-inflammatory mediators from peripheral tissues. RESULTS We observed a global decrease in immune response pathways in the heart, lung, and liver compared with other peripheral organs after short-term exposure to IH. Although there were tissue-specific alterations in the gene expression of pro-inflammatory mediators, with down-regulation in the lung and up-regulation in the heart, we also observed reduced protein levels of pro-inflammatory mediators in the serum, lung, and heart following short-term exposure to IH. Long-term exposure to IH resulted in an overall increase in the levels of inflammatory mediators in the serum, lung, and heart. CONCLUSIONS We demonstrated novel, longitudinal changes in the inflammatory cascade in a mouse model of OSA. The duration of exposure to IH led to significant variability of inflammatory responses within blood and cardiopulmonary tissues. Our findings further elucidate how inflammatory responses change over the course of the disease in vulnerable organs. LEVEL OF EVIDENCE NA Laryngoscope, 134:S1-S11, 2024.

Abstract
Obstructive sleep apnoea (OSA) is a prevalent underdiagnosed disorder whose incidence increases with age and weight. Uniquely characterised by frequent breathing interruptions during sleep-known as intermittent hypoxia (IH)-OSA disrupts the circadian rhythm. Patients with OSA have repeated episodes of hypoxia and reoxygenation, leading to systemic consequences. OSA consequences range from apparent symptoms like excessive daytime sleepiness, neurocognitive deterioration and decreased quality of life to pathological complications characterised by elevated biomarkers linked to endocrine-metabolic and cardiovascular changes. OSA is a well-recognized risk factor for cardiovascular and cerebrovascular diseases. Furthermore, OSA is linked to other conditions that worsen cardiovascular outcomes, such as obesity. The relationship between OSA and obesity is complex and reciprocal, involving interaction between biological and lifestyle factors. The pathogenesis of both OSA and obesity involve oxidative stress, inflammation and metabolic dysregulation. The current medical practice uses continuous positive airway pressure (CPAP) as the gold standard tool to manage OSA. It has been shown to improve symptoms and cardiac function, reduce cardiovascular risk and normalise biomarkers. Nonetheless, a full understanding of the factors involved in the deleterious effects of OSA and the best methods to eliminate their occurrence are still poorly understood. In this review, we present the factors and evidence linking OSA to increased risk of cardiovascular conditions.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) and inflammation are closely related. This study aimed to evaluate the associations and causal effect between C-reactive protein (CRP) and tumour necrosis factor-alpha (TNF-α) levels andOSA. METHODS Pooled analysis was conducted to compare the expression differences of CRP and TNF-α between OSA patients with different severity and controls, and between continuous positive airway pressure (CPAP) and non-CPAP interventions for OSA patients. Using published GWAS summary statistics, we conducted a bidirectional two-sample Mendelian Randomization (MR) to estimate the causal relationships between CRP and TNF-α levels and OSA risk. Effect estimates were evaluated using inverse-variance weighted (IVW) as primary method, and several other MR methods as sensitivity analysis. RESULTS Both TNF-α (WMD [95%CI] = 5.86 [4.80-6.93] pg/ml, p < .00001) and CRP (WMD [95%CI] = 2.66 [2.15-3.17] mg/L, p < .00001), showed a significant increase in OSA patients compared with controls and this increasing trend was associated with OSA severity. Besides, compared to blank control (non-CPAP), CPAP treatment can reduce high TNF-α (WMD [95%CI]= -4.44 [-4.81, -4.07]pg/ml, p < .00001) and CRP (WMD [95%CI]= -0.91 [-1.65, -0.17] mg/l, p = .02) in OSA. Moreover, the primary MR analysis by IVW showed that OSA was the genetically predicted cause of elevated CRP (estimate: 0.095; 95% CI, [0.010-0.179]; p = .029) using six SNPs as the instrument variable, which were repeated by weighted median (estimate: 0.053; 95% CI, [0.007, 0.100]; p =.024) and MR RAPS (estimate: 0.109; 95% CI, [0.079, 0.140]; p = 1.98x10-12). Besides, the causal effect from elevated CRP on increased OSA risk was almost significant by IVW (OR:1.053; 95% CI, [1.000, 1.111]; p = .053). However, there were no causal associations between TNF-α and OSA from both directions. CONCLUSIONS Increased CRP and TNF-α were associated with OSA severity and sensible to CPAP treatment. Also, OSA had a suggestive causal effect on elevated CRP.

Abstract
Obstructive sleep apnea syndrome (OSAS) is a common but underdiagnosed condition with significant health and economic implications for society. Inflammatory mediators are proposed to be associated with the presence and severity of OSAS and contribute to morbidity and mortality. This paper details a prospective non-randomized case control study of a cohort of subjects, who underwent surgical treatment of OSAS and were enrolled to assess the sleep parameters and blood levels of selected inflammatory markers at pre-operative and post-operative time points, also comparing them to the levels in a control group. A total of 25 study subjects and 18 control subjects were enrolled. Median values and interquartile range (IQR) of the apnea-hypopnea index (AHI) in the study group pre-operatively and post-operatively were 34 (18.5-45.5) and 13.3 (7.5-27.3), while in the control group 1.4 (1.0-2.1) per hour. The mean (IQR) hs-CRP levels (mg/L) were 1.782 (0.941-5.594) and 1.980 (0.990-5.445) in the study group, pre-operatively and post-operatively, respectively, while 0.891 (0.767-1.436) in the control group. The mean (IQR) TNF-α levels (pg/mL) were 7.999 (6.137-9.216) and 6.614 (5.534-7.460) pre-and post-operatively, respectively, and were 6.000 (5.026-6.823) in the control group. Results demonstrated that both inflammatory markers, hs-CRP and TNF-α, are higher in subjects with OSAS compared to the controls, and their levels decrease, but are still higher than the controls, after successful surgical treatment. Further analysis including the body mass index and age demonstrated that these changes were significant for TNF-α, but not hs-CRP.

Abstract
Rationale & Objective Poor sleep quality and insomnia are pervasive among patients with advanced chronic kidney disease (CKD); however, these health issues have not been systematically evaluated. Study Design Systematic review and meta-analysis. Setting & Study Populations Adult patients with CKD not receiving kidney replacement therapy (KRT), as well as adults receiving KRT, including hemodialysis, peritoneal dialysis, and kidney transplantation. Selection Criteria for Studies A systematic literature search using PubMed, Embase, and PsycNET, was conducted for articles published between January 1, 1990, and September 28, 2018. Data Extraction Data on the prevalences of poor sleep quality and insomnia in patients with CKD, including those receiving and not receiving KRT, were extracted. Analytical Approach Pooled prevalences were estimated using a random-effects meta-analysis and were stratified according to age, CKD stage, World Health Organization region, risk of bias, Pittsburgh Sleep Quality Index score, and the different criteria for insomnia that were used at diagnosis. Results Of 3,708 articles, 93 were selected, and significant methodological heterogeneity was present. The pooled prevalences of poor sleep quality for CKD without KRT, hemodialysis, peritoneal dialysis, and kidney transplantation were 59% (95% CI, 44%-73%), 68% (95% CI, 64%-73%), 67% (95% CI, 44%-86%), and 46% (95% CI, 34%-59%), respectively. The corresponding prevalences of insomnia were 48% (95% CI, 30%-67%), 46% (95% CI, 39%-54%), 61% (95% CI, 41%-79%), and 26% (95% CI, 9%-49%), respectively. Insomnia was significantly more prevalent among patients aged 51-60 years and those aged >60 years than among those aged <50 years. The prevalence of insomnia in the European region was the lowest of all World Health Organization regions. Limitations High interstudy heterogeneity. Conclusions Approximately half of the patients with advanced CKD had poor sleep quality or insomnia, and the prevalence was even higher among those who received KRT. Kidney transplantation may reduce the burden of poor sleep quality and insomnia.

Abstract
BACKGROUND: Previous studies have reported increased levels of inflammatory mediators in patients with obstructive sleep apnea (OSA), but their relation with the severity of OSA is controversial. OBJECTIVE: To address potential relationships between OSA-related inflammatory markers, namely, C-reactive protein (CRP), interleukin-6 (IL-6), tumor necrosis factor-alpha (TNF-α), and fibrinogen, with different oxygenation parameters and with BMI. METHODS: All eligible patients with suspected OSA newly referred to the Sleep Medicine Research Center at King Abdulaziz University Hospital, Jeddah, were evaluated demographically and anthropometrically, and underwent overnight polysomnography. Fasting morning blood samples were collected to measure serum levels of CRP, fibrinogen, TNF-α, and IL-6. Potential correlations between these inflammatory mediators and severity measures of OSA and body mass index (BMI) were explored. RESULTS: Sixty-four patients completed the study (40 with OSA and 24 without OSA). Significantly increased levels of CRP, fibrinogen, IL-6, and TNF-α emerged in patients with OSA compared to non-OSA. Significant associations between log CRP and log fibrinogen levels emerged with increasing BMI. However, there was no significant association between any of the inflammatory markers and the severity of OSA based on the apnea/hypopnea index or oxyhemoglobin saturation-derived parameters. CONCLUSIONS: OSA patients exhibit increased levels of inflammatory mediators that do not appear to be associated with polysomnographic measures, but exhibit positive correlation with the degree of adiposity.

[PMID: 34534733 DOI: 10.1016/j.trre.2021.100650] [Citation(s) in RCA: 3] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 05/18/2021] [Revised: 08/25/2021] [Accepted: 09/05/2021] [Indexed: 11/18/2022]
Abstract
BACKGROUND High quality sleep of sufficient duration is vital to overall health and wellbeing. Self-reported poor quality of sleep, sleep reported as irregular in timing, marked by frequent awakenings, or shortened in duration, is common across the solid-organ transplant trajectory. AIM This Systematic Review aimed to summarize available literature on rates of self-reported poor quality of sleep among solid organ transplant candidates and recipients. METHODS A systematic search of published literature was conducted in PubMed/MEDLINE, Embase, Web of Science, CINHAL, and PsychInfo databases with no date restrictions. Original articles in the English language describing self-reported quality of sleep using standardized questionnaires in adults either waitlisted for, or who received a solid organ transplant (heart, lung, kidney, liver, pancreas, or multi-solid organ) were included. RESULTS Of a potential 2054 articles identified, 44 were included (63.6% renal transplant, 20.5% liver transplant, 11.4% lung transplant, and 4.5% included multiple organ transplant populations), with the majority (68.2%) focusing only on post-transplant populations. No included articles focused solely on heart or pancreas transplant populations. On average, the transplant population with the greatest improvement in quality of sleep (reported as poor sleep quality, insomnia, sleep disturbance, or sleep dissatisfaction) from transplant candidacy to post-transplantation were renal transplant (from 53.5% pre, to 38.9% post) followed by liver transplant patients (from 52.8% pre, to 46.3% post), while lung transplant patients remained similar pre- to post-transplantation (55.6% pre, to 52% post). Poor quality of sleep was frequently associated with anxiety and depression, poorer quality of life, restless legs syndrome, and higher comorbidity. CONCLUSIONS Reports of poor quality of sleep are highly prevalent across all solid-organ transplant populations, both pre- and post-transplantation. Future studies should assess quality of sleep longitudinally throughout all phases of the transplantation trajectory, with more research focusing on how to optimize sleep in solid organ transplant populations.

Evaluation of Blood Levels of C-Reactive Protein Marker in Obstructive Sleep Apnea: A Systematic Review, Meta-Analysis and Meta-Regression. Life (Basel) 2021; 11:life11040362. [PMID: 33921787 PMCID: PMC8073992 DOI: 10.3390/life11040362] [Citation(s) in RCA: 16] [Impact Index Per Article: 5.3] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 03/21/2021] [Revised: 04/07/2021] [Accepted: 04/10/2021] [Indexed: 01/08/2023] Open
Abstract
(1) Introduction: High sensitivity C-reactive protein (hs-CRP) and CRP are inflammatory biomarkers associated with several inflammatory diseases. In both pediatric and adult individuals with Obstructive Sleep Apnea (OSA) higher hs-CRP and CRP were observed, compared to controls. With the present systematic review, meta-analysis and meta-regression we expand upon previous meta-analyses in four ways: (1) We included 109 studies (96 in adults and 13 in children); (2) we reported subgroup and meta-regression analyses in adults with OSA compared to controls on the serum and plasma levels of hs-CRP; (3) we reported subgroup and meta-regression analyses in adults with OSA compared to controls on the serum and plasma levels of CRP; (4) we reported serum and plasma levels of both hs-CRP and CRP in children with OSA, always compared to controls. (2) Materials and Methods: The PubMed/Medline, Scopus, Cochrane Library, and Web of Science databases were searched to retrieve articles published until 31 May 2020, with no restrictions. The data included basic information involving the first author, publication year, country of study, ethnicity of participants in each study, age, BMI, and AHI of both groups, and mean and standard deviation (SD) of plasma and serum levels of CRP and hs-CRP. (3) Results: A total of 1046 records were retrieved from the databases, and 109 studies were selected for the analysis (96 studies reporting the blood levels of hs-CRP/CRP in adults and 13 studies in children). For adults, 11 studies reported plasma hs-CRP, 44 serum hs-CRP, 9 plasma CRP, and 32 serum CRP levels. For children, 6 studies reported plasma hs-CRP, 4 serum hs-CRP, 1 plasma CRP, and 2 serum CRP levels. Compared to controls, the pooled MD of plasma hs-CRP levels in adults with OSA was 0.11 mg/dL (p < 0.00001). Compared to controls, the pooled MD of serum hs-CRP levels in adults with OSA was 0.09 mg/dL (p < 0.00001). Compared to controls, the pooled MD of plasma CRP levels in adults with OSA was 0.06 mg/dL (p = 0.72). Compared to controls, the pooled MD of serum CRP levels in adults with OSA was 0.36 mg/dL (p < 0.00001). Compared to controls, the pooled MD of plasma hs-CRP, serum hs-CRP, plasma hs-CRP, and serum hs-CRP in children with OSA was 1.17 mg/dL (p = 0.005), 0.18 mg/dL (p = 0.05), 0.08 mg/dL (p = 0.10), and 0.04 mg/dL (p = 0.33), respectively. The meta-regression showed that with a greater apnea-hypapnea index (AHI), serum hs-CRP levels were significantly higher. (4) Conclusions: The results of the present systematic review, meta-analysis and meta-regression showed that compared to healthy controls plasma and serum levels of hs-CRP and serum CRP level were higher in adults with OSA; for children, and compared to controls, just plasma hs-CRP levels in children with OSA were higher.

Does the Severity of Obstructive Sleep Apnea Have an Independent Impact on Systemic Inflammation? MEDICINA (KAUNAS, LITHUANIA) 2021; 57:292. [PMID: 33809834 PMCID: PMC8004292 DOI: 10.3390/medicina57030292] [Citation(s) in RCA: 1] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.3] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 02/04/2021] [Revised: 02/28/2021] [Accepted: 03/09/2021] [Indexed: 11/16/2022]
Abstract
Background and Objectives: This paper aims to show whether obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) severity increases the level of systemic inflammation markers regardless of body mass index (BMI) and body composition. Materials and Methods: In total, 128 patients with OSA were included in the study. Examinees were divided into two groups: one with mild OSA (apnea-hypopnea index (AHI) < 15) and one with moderate and severe OSA (AHI ≥ 15). Nutritional status was assessed using body mass index, body composition by dual X-ray absorptiometry. Systemic inflammation was assessed on the basis of plasma concentrations of tumor necrosis factor-α (TNF-α), interleukin-6 (IL-6), and serum level of C-reactive protein (CRP). Results: We found elevated mean values of the evaluated systemic inflammation markers (CRP, TNF-α, IL-6) in a group with AHI ≥ 15, although there was no statistical significance. Our research found a significant positive correlation with BMI (r = 0.633, p < 0.001), as well as with body fat percentage (r = 0.450, p = 0.024) and serum CRP values. Significant correlation was found between the plasma IL-6 concentration and body fat percentage (FM%) (r = 0.579, p = 0.003) and lean body mass (r = -0.501, p = 0.013). Multivariate regression analysis did not show any independent predictor (parameters of OSA, nutritional status, body composition) of the systemic inflammation markers. Conclusions: Neither one tested parameter (nutritional status and body composition) of the severity of OSA was identified as an independent prognostic factor for the severity of systemic inflammation in patients with OSA.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Tumor necrosis factor-α (TNF-α) has been reported to play a part in the development of obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) and its complications. However, the relationship between TNF-α and OSA still remains inconclusive. We aimed to systematically review and synthesize studies published to date on association between the two in adults. METHODS We searched for English-language articles containing original human data from case-control study studies in adults≥18 years of age. The selection criteria were set according to the PICOS framework. Articles were independently reviewed by three investigators. Data regarding demographics, clinical characteristics, and TNF-α levels were obtained. A random-effects model was applied to evaluate the overall effect sizes by calculating standard mean difference (SMD) and its 95% confidence intervals (CIs). RESULTS Of 393 identified abstracts, 50 articles (3503 OSA patients and 3379 health controls) were ultimately included in this meta-analysis. The results indicated that the TNF-α level in patients with OSA was 1.77 (95%CI, 1.37 to 2.17, I2 = 97.8%, P < 0.0001) times higher than in the control group. Subgroup analyses showed a positive correlation between the level of TNF-α and OSA severity. According to meta-regression, we noted that aging significantly predicted an increased effect size of TNF-α level in OSA patients (P < 0.007). CONCLUSION This study identified a significant association between OSA and elevated TNF-α level in adults. Meanwhile, TNF-α levels were consistently correlated with severity of OSA, which indicated it might be a promising biomarker for the development of OSA. However, well-designed, large-scale, case-control cohorts are needed to better understand the relationship of TNF-α in the context of adult OSA.

Abstract
Obstructive sleep apnea syndrome (OSAS) is considered a low-grade chronic inflammatory disease. Interleukin-6 (IL-6) is one of the most significant inflammatory markers and an excellent proxy for the inflammatory/immune system. The present meta-analysis and meta-regression aimed at comparing plasma and serum levels of IL-6 between individuals (children and adults) with OSAS and healthy controls. Four databases, PubMed/Medline, Scopus, Cochrane Library, and Web of Science, were comprehensively searched to retrieve articles published up to December, 2019, with no further restrictions. RevMan 5.3 software was used to calculate the crude mean difference (MD) and 95% confidence interval (CI). The results of funnel plots and meta-regression were analyzed by the CMA 2.0 software. Sixty-three studies (57 with adults; six with children) were included in the present meta-analysis. For adults, 37 studies reported significantly higher serum IL-6 levels and 20 reported significantly higher plasma IL-6 levels for those with OSAS than for healthy controls [pooled MD of 2.89 pg/ml (P < 0.00001) and pooled MD of 2.89 pg/ml (P < 0.00001), respectively]. The pooled analysis of serum and plasma IL-6 levels in children with OSAS compared with controls revealed that only the MD of plasma IL-6 levels was significant (MD = 0.84 pg/ml, P = 0.004). Results of the meta-regression showed that greater age was associated with higher serum IL-6 levels. Egger's test revealed a publication bias across the studies for serum and plasma IL-6 levels (P = 0.00044 and P = 0.01445, respectively). In summary, the meta-analysis and meta-regression confirmed that, compared to healthy controls, individuals with OSAS (children and adults) had higher serum/plasma IL-6 levels.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Obstructive sleep apnea syndrome (OSAS) is associated with a variety of inflammatory factors. Specifically, proinflammatory cytokines appear to be associated with the pathogenesis of OSAS. METHODS For the present meta-analysis and meta-regression on serum and plasma tumor necrosis factor alpha (TNF-α) levels in individuals with and without OSAS, we performed a systematic search without any restrictions of the PubMed/Medline, Scopus, Cochrane Library, and Web of Science databases to find relevant articles published up to February 1, 2020. RESULTS Fifty-five (adults: 29 studies on serum and 17 studies on plasma; children: 4 studies on serum and 5 studies on plasma) were included and analyzed. Always compared to age-matched healthy controls, the pooled MDs were as follows: adults, serum: 10.22 pg/mL (95% CI = 8.86, 11.58; p < 0.00001); adults, plasma: 5.90 pg/mL (95% CI = 4.00, 7.80; p < 0.00001); children, serum: 0.21 pg/mL (95% CI = 0.05, 0.37; p = 0.01); children, plasma: 5.90 pg/mL (95% CI = 4.00, 7.80; p < 0.00001). CONCLUSIONS Compared to healthy and age-matched controls, adult individuals with OSAS had significantly higher serum/plasma TNF-α levels. For children with OSAS, significantly higher levels were observed for TNF-α in serum but not in plasma.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES To identify the relationship between (1) cytokines and everyday symptoms and (2) cytokine diurnal variation and everyday symptoms in mild obstructive sleep apnea (OSA). METHODS An observational, single-night study of 20 adults with mild to moderate OSA undergoing diagnostic polysomnography. Everyday symptoms included sleepiness measured by Stanford Sleepiness Scale, fatigue and energy levels measured by Lee Fatigue Scale, and cytokine plasma concentrations including interleukin (IL)-1β, IL-6, IL-8, and tumor necrosis factor-α (TNF-α) measured concurrent with symptoms at presleep (8 pm to 10 pm; time 1) and postsleep (5 am to 6 am; time. 2) Cytokine diurnal variation was calculated as [time 2 - time 1]. Wilcoxon signed-rank tests and Spearman partial rank correlations adjusted for age, body mass index, cardiovascular disease, and type 2 diabetes were used. RESULTS Twenty patients (50% male, obese, median age = 51.0 years) with mild OSA (apnea-hypopnea index, AHI; median 9.5 events/h) were evaluated. Evening IL-6 was associated with evening symptoms, including sleepiness (r = .69, P = .002) and energy level (r = -0.68, P = .003); morning IL-8 (r = .73, P = .001), and TNF-α (r = .59, P = .015) were associated with morning fatigue. Only morning IL-8 (r = -0.57, P = .022) and diurnal variations in IL-8 (r = -0.60, P = .014) were associated with morning energy level. CONCLUSION There is scant evidence addressing the diurnal variation of inflammatory biomarkers and the relationship with symptom expression in mild OSA. The present findings provide preliminary mechanistic findings for symptom expression in OSA and contribute insight to mild OSA symptom phenotypes.

Abstract
Sleep and immunity are bidirectionally linked. Immune system activation alters sleep, and sleep in turn affects the innate and adaptive arm of our body's defense system. Stimulation of the immune system by microbial challenges triggers an inflammatory response, which, depending on its magnitude and time course, can induce an increase in sleep duration and intensity, but also a disruption of sleep. Enhancement of sleep during an infection is assumed to feedback to the immune system to promote host defense. Indeed, sleep affects various immune parameters, is associated with a reduced infection risk, and can improve infection outcome and vaccination responses. The induction of a hormonal constellation that supports immune functions is one likely mechanism underlying the immune-supporting effects of sleep. In the absence of an infectious challenge, sleep appears to promote inflammatory homeostasis through effects on several inflammatory mediators, such as cytokines. This notion is supported by findings that prolonged sleep deficiency (e.g., short sleep duration, sleep disturbance) can lead to chronic, systemic low-grade inflammation and is associated with various diseases that have an inflammatory component, like diabetes, atherosclerosis, and neurodegeneration. Here, we review available data on this regulatory sleep-immune crosstalk, point out methodological challenges, and suggest questions open for future research.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE Sleep disturbances are common in hemodialysis (HD) patients, impeding their daily activities and reducing their overall quality of life. The aim of this study was to investigate sleep quality and excessive daytime sleepiness (EDS) in HD patients waitlisted for renal transplant. METHODS The study included 137 patients (84 men and 53 women) undergoing HD three times per week; the mean age was 49.74±12.49 years. I used the Pittsburgh Sleep Quality Index (PSQI) to identify poor sleepers and the Epworth Sleepiness Scale (ESS) to identify those with EDS. RESULTS PSQI scores classified 87 of the 137 patients (63.5%) as poor sleepers, and ESS scores indicated that 47 patients (34.3%) had EDS. Among the 87 poor sleepers, 46% presented with EDS. Among the patients with EDS, 85% were also poor sleepers. Multivariate analysis revealed a positive correlation between the PSQI and ESS scores (P=0.002). CONCLUSIONS Poor sleep quality and EDS are quite common among patients receiving HD, but these sleep disturbances often go undiagnosed or untreated. Better awareness and treatment of SDs could improve quality of life for HD patients waitlisted for renal transplant.

Abstract
Obstructive sleep apnea syndrome (OSAS) is a chronic inflammatory disorder. The relationship between tumor necrosis factor alpha (TNF-alpha) and OSAS has been widely evaluated, but the results thus far remain inconclusive. We thereby decided to quantify the changes of TNF-alpha between OSAS patients and controls by a meta-analysis. This study complies with the MOOSE guidelines. Two reviewers independently searched articles and abstracted relevant data. In total, 47 articles (59 studies) were analyzed, including 2857 OSAS patients and 2115 controls. Overall, OSAS patients had a significantly higher level of circulating TNF-alpha than controls (weighted mean difference [WMD]: 9.66 pg/mL, 95% confidence interval [CI]: 8.66 to 11.24, P<0.001), but with significant heterogeneity (I2: 99.7%). After adjusting for potential missing studies, the overall estimate was weakened but still significant (filled WMD: 2.63 pg/mL, 95% CI: 2.56 to 2.70, P<0.001). When studies were stratified by OSAS severity, the changes in circulating TNF-alpha between patients and controls increased gradually with the more severe grades of OSAS. In patients with mild, mild-to-moderate, moderate, moderate-to-severe and severe OSAS, circulating TNF-alpha was higher than respective controls by 0.99, 1.48. 7.79, 10.08 and 8.85 pg/mL, with significant heterogeneity (I2: 91.2%, 74.5%, 97.6%, 99.0% and 98.1%). In conclusion, our findings demonstrated that circulating TNF-alpha was significantly higher in OSAS patients than in controls, and this difference became more pronounced with the more severe grades of OSAS, indicating that TNF-alpha might be a promising circulating biomarker for the development of OSAS.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE Insomnia complaints are frequent among kidney transplant (kTx) recipients and are associated with fatigue, depression, lower quality of life and increased morbidity. However, it is not known if subjective insomnia symptoms are associated with objective parameters of sleep architecture. Thus, we analyze the association between sleep macrostructure and EEG activity versus insomnia symptoms among kTx recipients. METHODS Participants (n1=100) were selected from prevalent adult transplant recipients (n0=1214) followed at a single institution. Insomnia symptoms were assessed by the Athens Insomnia Scale (AIS) and standard overnight polysomnography was performed. In a subgroup of patients (n2=56) sleep microstructure was also analyzed with power spectral analysis. RESULTS In univariable analysis AIS score was not associated with sleep macrostructure parameters (sleep latency, total sleep time, slow wave sleep, wake after sleep onset), nor with NREM and REM beta or delta activity in sleep microstructure. In multivariable analysis after controlling for covariables AIS score was independently associated with the proportion of slow wave sleep (β=0.263; CI: 0.026-0.500) and REM beta activity (β=0.323; CI=0.041-0.606) (p<0.05 for both associations). CONCLUSIONS Among kTx recipients the severity of insomnia symptoms is independently associated with higher proportion of slow wave sleep and increased beta activity during REM sleep but not with other parameters sleep architecture. The results suggest a potential compensatory sleep protective mechanism and a sign of REM sleep instability associated with insomnia symptoms among this population.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES To evaluate whether objectively measured sleep characteristics are associated with mortality risk independent of inflammatory burden and comorbidity. METHODS The Osteoporotic Fractures in Men Sleep Study (conducted in 2003-2005) included community-dwelling older men (n = 2531; average [standard deviation {SD}] age = 76.3 (5.5) years). Sleep measures from in-home polysomnography and wrist actigraphy and assessments of serum inflammatory markers levels (C-reactive protein, interleukin-6, tumor necrosis factor α, tumor necrosis factor α soluble receptor II, and interferon-γ) were obtained. Vital status was ascertained over an average (SD) follow-up of 7.4 (1.9 SD) years. RESULTS Three of the seven main sleep measures examined were independently associated with greater inflammatory burden. Mortality risk associated with prolonged (≥10% total sleep time) blood oxygen desaturation and short (<5 hours) sleep duration was attenuated to nonsignificance after adjusting for inflammatory burden or medical burden/lifestyle factors. Severe blood oxygen desaturation (adjusted hazard ratio [aHR] = 1.57, 95% confidence interval [CI] = 1.11-2.22), sleep fragmentation (aHR = 1.32, 95% CI = 1.12-1.57), and a lower percentage of sleep in rapid eye movement (aHR per SD = 0.90, 95% CI = 0.93-0.97) were independently associated with mortality. CONCLUSIONS Short sleep duration and prolonged blood oxygen desaturation were independently associated with inflammatory burden, which attenuated associations between these sleep characteristics and mortality. Medical and life-style factors also substantially attenuated most sleep-mortality associations, suggesting complex relations between sleep, inflammation, and disease. Sleep fragmentation, severe blood oxygen desaturation, and the percentage of sleep time in rapid eye movement were independently related to mortality risk. Future studies with repeated measures of mediators/confounds will be necessary to achieve a mechanistic understanding of sleep-related mortality risk.

Abstract
A growing body of evidence has delineated the predominant role of humoral mediators of inflammation in linking sleep with immunity. Nonetheless, characterization of the relationship between complement components with inflammatory functions and objective sleep measures has not been performed. In this study we investigated the relationships between objective measures of sleep and complement components with inflammatory functions. Thirty-six healthy male university students (age, 23.94±4.23 years; BMI, 23.44±2.67 kg/m(2)) completed the study. An RMS Quest 32 polysomnograph (PSG) was used for sleep recording. Non-fasting blood was collected before subjects went to bed on the second night in the sleep laboratory to estimate complement component 3 (C-3), complement component 4 (C-4), complement factor-H (Factor-H), C1-inhibitor (C1INH), complement factor I (CFI) and other inflammatory mediators, such as IL-6 and sICAM-1. Multiple linear regression analysis was used to assess the association between PSG sleep measures and inflammatory mediators. Higher values of C-3 and lower values of sICAM-1, C1INH, and CFI (adjusted model, R2=0.211, p<0.041) predicted longer sleep duration. Lower C-3 (adjusted model, R2=0.078, p<0.055) predicted higher N1 (%). Higher levels of C1INH and CFI and lower values of C-4 (model adjusted R2=0.269, p<0.008) predicted higher N3 (%). Higher C-3, higher C-4, lower IL-6, lower C1INH and lower CFI (model adjusted R2=0.296, p<0.007) predicted higher REM (%). Poor sleep measures were associated with increased levels of pro-inflammatory complement components and decreased anti-inflammatory complement components.

Abstract
This study examined associations of sleep and minutes spent in moderate-vigorous physical activity (MVPA) with C-reactive protein (CRP) and interleukin (IL)-6 among persons living with HIV. Cross-sectional analyses (n = 45) focused on associations of inflammatory outcomes (i.e., CRP and IL-6) with actigraph-derived sleep duration, latency, and efficiency; sleep onset; wake time; and wake-after-sleep-onset; as well as MVPA. Least square means for CRP and IL-6 by levels of sleep and MVPA were computed from general linear models. Individuals below the median of sleep duration, above the median for sleep onset, and below the median of MVPA minutes had higher CRP or IL-6 levels. Generally, individuals with both low MVPA and poor sleep characteristics had higher inflammation levels than those with more MVPA and worse sleep. Understanding the combined impact of multiple lifestyle/behavioral factors on inflammation could inform intervention strategies to reduce inflammation and therefore, chronic disease risk.

Abstract
PURPOSE The purpose of the present study was to evaluate the influence of continuous positive airway pressure (CPAP) on serum cystatin C, a novel biomarker of early renal impairment, among obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) patients. MATERIALS AND METHODS Newly diagnosed severe OSA patients who treated with CPAP for 3 months were enrolled from two sleep laboratories. Serum biomarkers of renal impairment, cystatin C, creatinine and estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR), were detected before and after CPAP treatment. RESULTS A total of 39 severe OSA patients were enrolled, 29 (74.4 %) were male, and mean age was 51.2 ± 12.2 years. After CPAP treatment, there were no changes of creatinine and eGFR (77.80 ± 20.00 vs. 75.3 ± 16.60 and 98.69 ± 31.74 vs. 100.20 ± 28.30, all p > 0.05), but cystatin C declined significantly (0.87 ± 0.18 vs. 0.77 ± 0.21, p = 0.000). CONCLUSION CPAP can decrease cystatin C levels among severe OSA patients and may prevent the latent renal impairment.

Abstract
STUDY OBJECTIVES Obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) has been linked to and is associated with increased cardiovascular and cerebrovascular morbidity. Ongoing inflammatory responses play an important role in this association. Multiple small size studies addressing the profile of the inflammatory markers in OSA are available therefore we performed a meta-analysis. METHODS Systematic review of medical literature was conducted using PubMed, Cochrane, and EMBASE databases from 1968 to 2011 by utilizing the key words obstructive sleep apnea, C-Reactive protein, tumor necrosis factor alpha (TNF-α), interleukin 6 (IL-6), interleukin 8 (IL-8), intercellular adhesion molecule (ICAM), vascular cell adhesion molecule (VCAM) and Selectins. Inclusion criteria were: full text English articles; studies with adult population; reported values for at least one of the markers of interest; with at least two separate groups (subjects with OSA and control group); OSA was defined as AHI of ≥ 5/h. RESULTS Five hundred and twelve studies were reviewed for inclusion with 51 studies pooled for analysis (30 studies for CRP, 19 studies for TNF-α, 8 studies for ICAM, 18 studies for IL-6, six studies for VCAM and 5 studies for Selectins). The levels of inflammatory markers were higher in patients with OSA compared to control group. Standardized pooled Mean differences were calculated to be 1.77 for CRP, 1.03 for TNF-α, 2.16 for IL-6, 4.22 for IL-8, 2.93 for ICAM, 1.45 for Selectins and 2.08 for VCAM. CONCLUSIONS In this meta-analysis, the levels of systemic inflammatory markers were found to be higher in OSA patients compared to control subjects.

Abstract
Habitual sleep duration has been associated with cardiometabolic disease, via several mechanistic pathways, but few have been thoroughly explored. One hypothesis is that short and/or long sleep duration is associated with a proinflammatory state, which could increase risk for cardiovascular and metabolic diseases. This hypothesis has been largely explored in the context of experimental sleep deprivation studies which have attempted to demonstrate changes in proinflammatory markers following acute sleep loss in the laboratory. Despite the controlled environment available in these studies, samples tend to lack generalization to the population at large and acute sleep deprivation may not be a perfect analog for short sleep. To address these limitations, population based studies have explored associations between proinflammatory markers and habitual sleep duration. This review summarizes what is known from experimental and cross-sectional studies about the association between sleep duration, cardiovascular disease, and proinflammatory biomarkers. First, the association between sleep duration with both morbidity and mortality, with a focus on cardiovascular disease, is reviewed. Then, a brief review of the potential role of proinflammatory markers in cardiovascular disease is presented. The majority of this review details specific findings related to specific molecules, including tumor necrosis factor-α, interleukins-1, -6, and -17, C-reactive protein, coagulation molecules, cellular adhesion molecules, and visfatin. Finally, a discussion of the limitations of current studies and future directions is provided.
