Abstract
Obstructive sleep apnea (OSA), a common sleep-disordered breathing condition, is characterized by intermittent hypoxia (IH) and sleep fragmentation and has been implicated in the pathogenesis and severity of nonalcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD). Abnormal molecular changes mediated by IH, such as high expression of hypoxia-inducible factors, are reportedly involved in abnormal pathophysiological states, including insulin resistance, abnormal lipid metabolism, cell death, and inflammation, which mediate the development of NAFLD. However, the relationship between IH and NAFLD remains to be fully elucidated. In this review, we discuss the clinical correlation between OSA and NAFLD, focusing on the molecular mechanisms of IH in NAFLD progression. We meticulously summarize clinical studies evaluating the therapeutic efficacy of continuous positive airway pressure treatment for NAFLD in OSA. Additionally, we compile potential molecular biomarkers for the co-occurrence of OSA and NAFLD. Finally, we discuss the current research progress and challenges in the field of OSA and NAFLD and propose future directions and prospects.

Commun Biol 2024; 7:492. [PMID: 38654054 PMCID: PMC11039760 DOI: 10.1038/s42003-024-06171-z] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 05/14/2023] [Accepted: 04/10/2024] [Indexed: 04/25/2024] Open
Abstract
A correlation exists between obstructive sleep apnoea (OSA) and the severity of metabolic dysfunction-associated steatotic liver disease (MASLD), OSA can induce more severe MASLD. However, the underlying regulatory mechanism between the two is unclear. To this end, this study explored the role and possible molecular mechanisms of adipocyte-derived exosomes under OSA in aggravating MASLD. Through sequencing technology, miR-455-3p was identified as a co-differentially expressed miRNA between the MASLD + OSA and Control groups and between the MASLD + OSA and MASLD groups. Upregulation of TCONS-00039830 and Smad2 and downregulation of miR-455-3p in the MASLD and MASLD + OSA groups were validated in vivo and in vitro. TCONS-00039830, as a differentially expressed LncRNA in exosomes found in the sequencing results, transfection notably downregulated miR-455-3p and upregulated Smad2 in hepatocytes. TCONS_00039830 overexpression increased fat, triglyceride and cholesterol levels, while miR-455-3p overexpression decreased these levels. Furthermore, exosome administration promoted the accumulation of fat, triglyceride and cholesterol, upregulated TCONS_00039830 and Smad2, and downregulated miR-455-3p. Overexpression of miR-455-3p reversed the increased fat accumulation and upregulated TCONS_00039830 and Smad2. In conclusion, OSA-derived exosomes promoted hepatocyte steatosis by regulating TCONS_00039830/miR-455-3p/Smad2 axis, thereby aggravating liver damage in MASLD.

Abstract
Studies have shown that non-alcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD) may be associated with sleep disorders. In order to explore the explicit relationship between the two, we systematically reviewed the effects of sleep disorders, especially obstructive sleep apnea (OSA), on the incidence of NAFLD, and analyzed the possible mechanisms after adjusting for confounding factors. NAFLD is independently associated with sleep disorders. Different sleep disorders may be the cause of the onset and aggravation of NAFLD. An excessive or insufficient sleep duration, poor sleep quality, insomnia, sleep-wake disorders, and OSA may increase the incidence of NAFLD. Despite that some research suggests a unidirectional causal link between the two, specifically, the onset of NAFLD is identified as a result of changes in sleep characteristics, and the reverse relationship does not hold true. Nevertheless, there is still a lack of specific research elucidating the reasons behind the higher risk of developing sleep disorders in individuals with NAFLD. Further research is needed to establish a clear relationship between NAFLD and sleep disorders. This will lay the groundwork for earlier identification of potential patients, which is crucial for earlier monitoring, diagnosis, effective prevention, and treatment of NAFLD.

Abstract
Obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) is characterized by episodic sleep state-dependent collapse of the upper airway, with consequent hypoxia, hypercapnia, and arousal from sleep. OSA contributes to multisystem damage; in severe cases, sudden cardiac death might occur. In addition to causing respiratory, cardiovascular and endocrine metabolic diseases, OSA is also closely associated with nonalcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD). As the prevalence of OSA and NAFLD increases rapidly, they significantly exert adverse effects on the health of human beings. The authors retrieved relevant documents on OSA and NAFLD from PubMed and Medline. This narrative review elaborates on the current knowledge of OSA and NAFLD, demonstrates the impact of OSA on NAFLD, and clarifies the underlying mechanisms of OSA in the progression of NAFLD. Although there is a lack of sufficient high-quality clinical studies to prove the causal or concomitant relationship between OSA and NAFLD, existing evidence has confirmed the effect of OSA on NAFLD. Elucidating the underlying mechanisms through which OSA impacts NAFLD would hold considerable importance in terms of both prevention and the identification of potential therapeutic targets for NAFLD.

Abstract
Nonalcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD) has become a widely studied subject due to its increasing prevalence and links to diseases such as type 2 diabetes and obesity. It has severe complications, including nonalcoholic steatohepatitis, cirrhosis, hepatocellular carcinoma, and portal hypertension that can lead to liver transplantation in some cases. To better prevent and treat this pathology, it is important to understand its underlying physiology. Here, we identify two main factors that play a crucial role in the pathophysiology of NAFLD: oxidative stress and the key role of carcinoembryonic antigen-related cell adhesion molecule 1 (CEACAM1). We discuss the pathophysiology linking these factors to NAFLD pathophysiology.

Abstract
STUDY OBJECTIVES Dyslipidemia in obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) has been attributed to confounding obesity and/or diabetes. This study aimed to examine lipid profiles in nondiabetic, nonobese patients with OSA and identify the possible effects of age and sex. METHODS We retrospectively evaluated the lipid parameters of 3,050 adults who underwent polysomnography. A total of 2,168 patients were excluded due to obesity (body mass index ≥ 30 kg/m2), diabetes, alcoholism, untreated hypothyroidism, lipid-lowering drug use, missing sleep data, or treatment for suspected OSA. RESULTS Of 882 patients (75% males, aged 46.8 ± 12.2 years) included in the study, 88.4% had OSA. Levels of total cholesterol (P = .003), low-density-lipoprotein (LDL) cholesterol (P = .005), non-high-density-lipoprotein (non-HDL) cholesterol (P = .001), and triglycerides (P = .007) were significantly higher in patients with OSA than in those without, whereas HDL-cholesterol levels did not differ. The proportion of patients with hypercholesterolemia and/or elevated non-HDL cholesterol (> 160 mg/dL) was significantly higher in OSA than in non-OSA. Correlation analyses by sex revealed stronger and more significant relationships between lipid parameters and apnea-hypopnea index in women than in men (r = .135, P < .001, vs r = .080, P = .043 for total cholesterol; r = .111, P < .001, vs r = .080, P = .046 for non-HDL cholesterol; r = .122, P < .001, vs r = .061, P = .107 for LDL cholesterol, respectively). In regression analysis, the rate of hypercholesterolemia increased with age (P < .001 for women and P = .031 for men); non-HDL- and LDL-cholesterol levels significantly increased with OSA severity (P = .035 and P = .023, respectively) and age (P = .004 and P = .001, respectively) in women. CONCLUSIONS After excluding confounding obesity and diabetes, patients with OSA have an impaired lipid profile including total cholesterol, LDL cholesterol, non-HDL cholesterol, and triglycerides. A significant association between dyslipidemia and OSA severity was observed in women but not in men. CITATION Basoglu OK, Tasbakan MS, Kayikcioglu M.

Abstract
This study aimed to analyze the associations of obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) with dental parameters while controlling for socio-demographics, health-related habits, and each of the diseases comprising metabolic syndrome (MetS), its consequences, and related conditions. We analyzed data from the dental, oral, and medical epidemiological (DOME) cross-sectional records-based study that combines comprehensive socio-demographic, medical, and dental databases of a nationally representative sample of military personnel for one year. Analysis included statistical and machine learning models. The study included 132,529 subjects; of these, 318 (0.2%) were diagnosed with OSA. The following parameters maintained a statistically significant positive association with OSA in the multivariate binary logistic regression analysis (descending order from highest to lowest OR): obesity (OR = 3.104 (2.178-4.422)), male sex (OR = 2.41 (1.25-4.63)), periodontal disease (OR = 2.01 (1.38-2.91)), smoking (OR = 1.45 (1.05-1.99)), and age (OR = 1.143 (1.119-1.168)). Features importance generated by the XGBoost machine learning algorithm were age, obesity, and male sex (located on places 1-3), which are well-known risk factors of OSA, as well as periodontal disease (fourth place) and delivered dental fillings (fifth place). The Area Under Curve (AUC) of the model was 0.868 and the accuracy was 0.92. Altogether, the findings supported the main hypothesis of the study, which was that OSA is linked to dental morbidity, in particular to periodontitis. The findings highlight the need for dental evaluation as part of the workup of OSA patients and emphasizes the need for dental and general medical authorities to collaborate by exchanging knowledge about dental and systemic morbidities and their associations. The study also highlights the necessity for a comprehensive holistic risk management strategy that takes systemic and dental diseases into account.

Abstract
Obesity is considered a twentieth-century epidemic and is a growing concern among health professionals. Obesity and its complications contribute to multiple chronic illnesses, such as type 2 diabetes (T2D), metabolic syndrome, obstructive sleep apnea (OSA), malignancy, and cardiovascular and liver diseases. In the last two decades, a bidirectional association between OSA and metabolic-associated fatty liver disease (MAFLD), independent of obesity, has been established. Both conditions have similar risk factors and metabolic comorbidities that may imply a common disease pathway. This review compiles the evidence and delineates the relationship between OSA and MAFLD from a clinical and diagnostic aspect.

A Prediction Nomogram Combining Epworth Sleepiness Scale and Other Clinical Parameters to Predict Obstructive Sleep Apnea in Patients with Hypertension. Int J Hypertens 2022; 2022:3861905.

Abstract
Background Obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) is common in patients with hypertension. Nonetheless, OSA is underdiagnosed despite considerable evidence of the association between OSA and adverse health outcomes. This study developed and validated a clinical nomogram to predict OSA in patients with hypertension based on the Epworth Sleepiness Scale (ESS) score and OSA-related parameters. Methods A total of 347 hypertensive patients with suspected OSA were retrospectively enrolled and randomly assigned to a training set and a validation set at 70 : 30 (N = 242/N = 105) ratio. OSA was diagnosed through sleep monitoring and was defined as an apnea-hypopnea index ≥5 events/h. Using the least absolute shrinkage and selection operator regression model, we identified potential predictors of OSA and constructed a nomogram model in the training set. The predictive performance of the nomogram was assessed and validated by discrimination and calibration. The nomogram was also compared with ESS scores according to decision curve analysis (DCA), integrated discrimination index (IDI), and net reclassification index (NRI). Results ESS scores, body mass index, neck circumference, snoring, and observed apnea predicted OSA are considered. The nomogram showed similar discrimination between the training set (AUC: 0.799, 95% CI: 0.743–0.847) and validation set (AUC: 0.766, 95% CI: 0.673–0.843) and good calibration in the training (P=0.925 > 0.05) and validation (P=0.906 > 0.05) sets. Compared with the predictive value of the ESS, the nomogram was clinically useful and significantly improved reclassification accuracy (NRI: 0.552, 95% CI: 0.282–0.822, P < 0.001; IDI: 0.088, 95% CI: 0.045–0.133, P < 0.001) at a probability threshold of >42%. Conclusions We developed a novel OSA prediction nomogram based on ESS scores and OSA-related parameters. This nomogram may help improve clinical decision-making, especially in communities and primary clinics, where polysomnography is unavailable.

Abstract
Chronic intermittent hypoxia (CIH) is a pathological characteristic of obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) that has been linked to the pathogenesis of nonalcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD). The specific link between CIH, autophagic activity, and NAFLD, however, has not previously been characterized. The goal of this study was to assess the relationship between CIH-induced autophagy and the pathogenesis of OSA-associated NAFLD. Western blotting was used to assess the expression of proteins associated with lipid synthesis, endoplasmic reticulum (ER) stress, and autophagic activity. To establish an in vivo model system, C57BL/6 mice were subjected to CIH conditions for 8 h per day over a 12-week period, and were administered chloroquine (CQ) for 1 week prior to euthanization. Levels of serum and liver triglycerides in these animals were assessed, as were proteins related to hepatic autophagy, ER stress, and lipogenesis. qPCR was additionally used to assess hepatic inflammation-related gene expression, while transmission electron microscopy was used to monitor lipid droplet (LD) accumulation and ER morphology. OSA patients and CIH model mice exhibited increases in the expression of proteins associated with hepatic autophagy, ER stress, and lipogenesis. CIH was also associated with more pronounced LD accumulation, hepatic inflammation, and hepatic steatosis in these mice. While serum and hepatic TG and TC levels and serum ALT/AST were increased in response to CIH treatment, the administration of CQ to these mice led to reductions in ER stress-related proteins (XBP1, IRE1α, EIF2α) and lipogenesis-related proteins (ACC, SCD1, FASn), in addition to significantly reducing hepatic inflammation, steatosis, and LD accumulation in these animals. These results suggest that persistent CIH can drive dysregulated hepatic autophagic activity, hepatic steatosis, and ER stress, highlighting potential targets for therapeutic intervention aimed at preventing or treating OSA-associated NAFLD.

Abstract
Abnormalities of sleep are common in myotonic dystrophy type 1 (DM1), but few previous studies have combined polysomnography with detailed clinical measures and brain imaging. In the present study, domiciliary polysomnography, symptom questionnaires and cognitive evaluation were undertaken in 39 DM1-affected individuals. Structural brain MRI was completed in those without contra-indication (n = 32). Polysomnograms were adequate for analysis in 36 participants. Sleep efficiency was reduced, and sleep architecture altered in keeping with previous studies. Twenty participants (56%) had moderate or severe sleep-disordered breathing (apnoea-hypopnoea index [AHI] ≥ 15). In linear modelling, apnoeas were positively associated with increasing age and male sex. AHI ≥ 15 was further associated with greater daytime pCO2 and self-reported physical impairment, somnolence and fatigue. Percentage REM sleep was inversely associated with cerebral grey matter volume, stage 1 sleep was positively associated with occipital lobe volume and stage 2 sleep with amygdala volume. Hippocampus volume was positively correlated with self-reported fatigue and somnolence. Linear relationships were also observed between measures of sleep architecture and cognitive performance. Findings broadly support the hypothesis that changes in sleep architecture and excessive somnolence in DM1 reflect the primary disease process in the central nervous system.

Abstract
Metabolic associated fatty liver disease (MAFLD) is a more appropriate general predicate to describe non-alcoholic fatty liver disease. The new definition lists metabolic dysfunction as an important cause of liver disease, demonstrates the high heterogeneity of this condition, and speeds up the transformation path to new treatment. The incidence of extrahepatic complications and related diseases of MAFLD far exceed that of the liver disease itself, which seriously threatens human health. In view of the current insufficient understanding of its severity, and the imperfect understanding of the disease scope, pathogenesis, and diagnosis of extrahepatic complications, especially the lack of effective drug treatment, this paper introduces and reviews the research status and progress of extrahepatic complications of MAFLD.

Abstract
Obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) is characterized by upper airway collapse during sleep. Chronic intermittent hypoxia, sleep fragmentation, and inflammatory activation are the main pathophysiological mechanisms of OSA. OSA is highly prevalent in obese patients and may contribute to cardiometabolic risk by exerting detrimental effects on adipose tissue metabolism and potentiating the adipose tissue dysfunction typically found in obesity. This chapter will provide an update on: (a) the epidemiological studies linking obesity and OSA; (b) the studies exploring the effects of intermittent hypoxia and sleep fragmentation on the adipose tissue; (c) the effects of OSA treatment with continuous positive airway pressure (CPAP) on metabolic derangements; and (d) current research on new anti-diabetic drugs that could be useful in the treatment of obese OSA patients.

Abstract
The relationship between obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) and endocrine and metabolic disease is unequivocal. OSA, which is characterized by intermittent hypoxia and sleep fragmentation, leads to and exacerbates obesity, metabolic syndrome, and type 2 diabetes (T2D) as well as endocrine disturbances, such as hypothyroidism and Cushing syndrome, among others. However, this relationship is bidirectional with endocrine and metabolic diseases being considered major risk factors for the development of OSA. For example, polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS), one of the most common endocrine disorders in women of reproductive age, is significantly associated with OSA in adult patients. Several factors have been postulated to contribute to or be critical in the genesis of dysmetabolic states in OSA including the increase in sympathetic activation, the deregulation of the hypothalamus-pituitary axis, the generation of reactive oxygen species (ROS), insulin resistance, alteration in adipokines levels, and inflammation of the adipose tissue. However, probably the alterations in the hypothalamus-pituitary axis and the altered secretion of hormones from the peripheral endocrine glands could play a major role in the gender differences in the link between OSA-dysmetabolism. In fact, normal sleep is also different between men and women due to the physiologic differences between genders, with sex hormones such as progesterone, androgens, and estrogens, being also connected with breathing pathologies. Moreover, it is very well known that OSA is more prevalent among men than women, however the prevalence in women increases after menopause. At the same time, the step-rise in obesity and its comorbidities goes along with mounting evidence of clinically important sex and gender differences. Metabolic and cardiovascular diseases, seen as a men's illness for decades, presently are more common in women than in men and obesity has a higher association with insulin-resistance-related risk factors in women than in men. In this way, in the present manuscript, we will review the major findings on the overall mechanisms that connect OSA and dysmetabolism giving special attention to the specific regulation of this relationship in each gender. We will also detail the gender-specific effects of hormone replacement therapies on metabolic control and sleep apnea.

The Snoring Index Identifies Risk of Non-Alcoholic Fatty Liver Disease in Patients with Obstructive Sleep Apnea Syndrome. BIOLOGY 2021; 11:biology11010010.

Abstract
Simple Summary Obstructive sleep apnea syndrome (OSA) and non-alcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD) are very common and share underlying metabolic risk factors. It remains unclear how exactly the two diseases are related. In this study, patients with obstructive sleep apnea were evaluated for the presence of NAFLD with the aim of finding parameters in polysomnography that may indicate NAFLD. The snoring index turned out to be the most valuable and a very reliable screening tool for the presence of NAFLD—independent of other metabolic risk factors. Abstract Background: The aim of this observational cohort study was to explore the severity of liver disease in patients with suspected obstructive sleep apnea in Germany. Methods: Patients undergoing polysomnography or home sleep apnea testing (HSAT) as an evaluation for the presence of OSA were screened using vibration-controlled transient elastography (VCTE) and continuous attenuation parameter (CAP) with a Fibroscan ® Mini 430. Clinical and laboratory data were collected following the overnight exam. Results: In total, 78 patients (28 female (35.9%), mean age 54.2 years) with OSA defined by an apnea-hypopnea-index >5 events/hour were included between OCT 2020 and APR 2021. Patients exhibited a high metabolic risk profile with 17% known diabetes mellitus type 2 (T2D), 62% arterial hypertension, 14% hyperlipidemia and 36% BMI > 30 kg/m2. The prevalence of steatosis defined by a CAP > 280 dB/m was 54%. The prevalence of at least significant fibrosis was 16% (E > 9.0 kPa). Interestingly, patients with a snoring index above the median of 278/h showed significantly higher CAP-values (p = 0.0002). In addition, the proportion of oxygen saturations below 90% (t90) correlated with CAP-values (p = 0.02), as well as metabolic risk factors including increased waist circumference (p = 0.005) and body mass index (BMI) (p = 0.035). On the other hand, the apnea-hypopnea-index (AHI) as a marker of OSA severity did not correlate with VCTE, CAP or laboratory parameters. Conclusion: Patients with moderate to severe OSA have a high prevalence of hepatic steatosis. The snoring index is an easy-to-use clinical tool to identify patients at risk for relevant liver disease within the larger group of patients with OSA.

Abstract
Non-alcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD) is currently considered the most common cause of liver disease. Its prevalence is increasing in parallel with the obesity and type 2 diabetes mellitus (DM2) epidemics in developed countries. Several recent studies have suggested that NAFLD may be the hepatic manifestation of a systemic inflammatory metabolic disease that also affects other organs, such as intestine, lungs, skin and vascular endothelium. It appears that local and systemic proinflammatory/anti-inflammatory cytokine imbalance, together with insulin resistance and changes in the intestinal microbiota, are pathogenic mechanisms shared by NAFLD and other comorbidities. NAFLD is more common in patients with extrahepatic diseases such as inflammatory bowel disease (IBD), obstructive syndrome apnea (OSA) and psoriasis than in the general population. Furthermore, there is evidence that this association has a negative impact on the severity of liver lesions. Specific risk characteristics for NAFLD have been identified in populations with IBD (i.e. age, obesity, DM2, previous bowel surgery, IBD evolution time, methotrexate treatment), OSA (i.e. obesity, DM2, OSA severity, increased transaminases) and psoriasis (i.e. age, metabolic factors, severe psoriasis, arthropathy, elevated transaminases, methotrexate treatment). These specific phenotypes might be used by gastroenterologists, pneumologists and dermatologists to create screening algorithms for NAFLD. Such algorithms should include non-invasive markers of fibrosis used in NAFLD to select subjects for referral to the hepatologist. Prospective, controlled studies in NAFLD patients with extrahepatic comorbidities are required to demonstrate a causal relationship and also that appropriate multidisciplinary management improves these patients’ prognosis and survival.

Abstract
AIM AND OBJECTIVE The aim of the study was to investigate the relationships between insulin receptor substrate (IRS) 1 (Gly972Arg) and IRS2 (Gly1057Asp) genes with obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) and non-alcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD) in Asian Indians. METHOD A total of 410 overweight/obese subjects (130 with OSA with NAFLD, 100 with OSA without NAFLD, 95 without OSA and with NAFLD and 85 without OSA and without NAFLD) were recruited. Degree of NAFLD was based on liver ultrasound and of OSA on overnight polysomnography. Genotyping was performed by polymerase chain reaction-restriction fragment length polymorphism and confirmed by gene sequencing. RESULT Mean values of blood pressure, body fat markers, blood glucose, lipids, liver function, and markers of insulin resistance were significantly increased in OSA and NAFLD subjects (p<0.05). In addition, according to age (years) categories, blood pressure, blood glucose, lipids, obesity markers, and markers of insulin resistance were significantly higher in 45-60 years group as compared to 20-45 years group (p<0.05). In IRS1 gene, the genotype frequency (%) of Arg/Arg was significantly higher in NAFLD and OSA subjects. In addition, Gly/Arg genotype of IRS1 gene was associated with significantly higher body mass index, fat mass, %body fat, triglycerides, cholesterol, alkaline phosphate, aspartate transaminase, fasting insulin and HOMA-IR levels in OSA and NAFLD subjects. No significant difference in genotype frequencies of IRS2 was observed between four groups. Further we found that subjects carrying IRS1 Gly/Arg (OR 4.49, 95% C.I. 1.06-12.52, p = 0.002) genotype possess a much higher risk of OSA and NAFLD compared to IRS2 Gly/Asp (OR 1.01, 95% C.I. 0.8-2.56, p = 0.05). In sub group analysis of IRS1 Gly/Arg have significant differences between the mild, moderate and severe group (P<0.05). In addition, patients with the 'Gly' allele were inclined to develop more severe OSA. CONCLUSION We concluded that Asian Indian subject carrying the allele Gly972Arg polymorphism of IRS1 is predisposed to develop OSA and NAFLD.

Abstract
The growing number of patients with obstructive sleep apnea is challenging healthcare systems worldwide. Obstructive sleep apnea is characterized by chronic intermittent hypoxaemia, episodes of apnea and hypopnea, and fragmented sleep. Cardiovascular and metabolic diseases are common in obstructive sleep apnea, also in lean patients. Further, comorbidity burden is not unambiguously linked to the severity of obstructive sleep apnea. There is a growing body of evidence revealing diverse functions beyond the conventional tasks of different organs such as carotid body and gut microbiota. Chronic intermittent hypoxia and sleep loss due to sleep fragmentation are associated with insulin resistance. Indeed, carotid body is a multi-sensor organ not sensoring only hypoxia and hypercapnia but also acting as a metabolic sensor. The emerging evidence shows that obstructive sleep apnea and particularly chronic intermittent hypoxia is associated with non-alcoholic fatty liver disease. Gut dysbiosis seems to be an important factor in the pathophysiology of obstructive sleep apnea and its consequences. The impact of sleep fragmentation and intermittent hypoxia on the development of metabolic syndrome may be mediated via altered gut microbiota. Circadian misalignment seems to have an impact on the cardiometabolic risk in obstructive sleep apnea. Dysfunction of cerebral metabolism is also related to hypoxia and sleep fragmentation. Therefore, obstructive sleep apnea may alter cerebral metabolism and predispose to neurocognitive impairment. Moreover, recent data show that obstructive sleep apnea independently predicts impaired lipid levels. This mini-review will provide novel insights into the mechanisms of metabolic dysfunction in obstructive sleep apnea combining recent evidence from basic, translational and clinical research, and discuss the impact of positive airway pressure treatment on metabolic disorders.

Abstract
Purpose The previous analysis of systematic reviews and meta-analyses have illustrated that obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) is correlated with multiple health outcomes. In the present research, our main aim was to execute an umbrella review to assess the available evidence for the associations between OSA and health outcomes. Methods Herein, a meta-analysis of previous observational investigations that have reported associations between OSA and health outcomes in all human populations and settings was performed. We used these studies to execute an umbrella review of available meta-analyses and systematic reviews. Results Sixty-six articles comprising 136 unique outcomes were enrolled in this analysis. Of the 136 unique outcomes, 111 unique outcomes had significant associations (p < 0.05). Only 7 outcomes (coronary revascularization after PCI, postoperative respiratory failure, steatosis, alaninetrans aminase (ALT) elevation, metabolic syndrome (MS), psoriasis, and Parkinson’s disease) had a high quality of evidence. Twenty-four outcomes had a moderate quality of evidence, and the remaining 80 outcomes had a weak quality of evidence. Sixty-nine outcomes exhibited significant heterogeneity. Twenty-five outcomes exhibited publication bias. Sixty-three (95%) studies showed critically low methodological quality. Conclusion Among the 66 meta-analyses exploring 136 unique outcomes, only 7 statistically significant outcomes were rated as high quality of evidence. OSA may correlate with an increased risk of coronary revascularization after PCI, postoperative respiratory failure, steatosis, ALT elevation, MS, psoriasis, and Parkinson’s disease.

Abstract
Objectives Obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) and nonalcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD) are prevalent and commonly associated conditions. We aimed to estimate the prevalence of NAFLD and identify liver fibrosis risk using noninvasive scoring methods in a cohort of patients with OSA. Methodology In this retrospective study of patients with confirmed OSA, patients who underwent abdominal ultrasonography were recruited. The primary outcome was the prevalence of suspected NAFLD (steatosis on ultrasound and/or elevated alanine transaminase [ALT]). The secondary outcomes included the prevalence and predictors of liver fibrosis risk as assessed by the NAFLD fibrosis score (NFS) and fibrosis-4 (FIB-4) score. Results A total of 133 patients fulfilled the study inclusion criteria. The average age was 49.8±15.1 years, and 57.1% were females. The average BMI was 37.3±14.5. According to the apnea-hypopnea index (AHI) scores, 37.9%, 29.6%, and 32.6% of participants had mild (5-14), moderate (15-29), and severe (>=30) OSA, respectively. Radiologically defined NAFLD was detected in 44.4% of the participants, and elevated liver enzymes were detected in 63.9% of the patients. High NFS and FIB-4 scores were recorded in 9% and 3.8% of the patients, respectively. According to logistic regression analysis, age and BMI significantly predicted high NFS scores. Conclusion NAFLD appears to be common among OSA patients. Age and obesity, but not OSA severity, predicted high liver fibrosis risk as assessed by noninvasive scoring systems.

Abstract
Sleep disturbances often result from inappropriate lifestyles, incorrect dietary habits, and/or digestive diseases. This clinical condition, however, has not been sufficiently explored in this area. Several studies have linked the circadian timing system to the physiology of metabolism control mechanisms, energy balance regulation, and nutrition. Sleep disturbances supposedly trigger digestive disorders or conversely represent specific clinical manifestation of gastrointestinal (GI) diseases. Poor sleep may worsen the symptoms of GI disorders, affecting the quality of life. Conversely, short sleep may influence dietary choices, as well as meal timing, and the circadian system drives temporal changes in metabolic patterns. Emerging evidence suggests that patients with inappropriate dietary habits and chronic digestive disorders often sleep less and show lower sleep efficiency, compared with healthy individuals. Sleep disturbances may thus represent a primary symptom of digestive diseases. Further controlled trials are needed to fully understand the relationship between sleep disturbances, dietary habits, and GI disorders. It may be also anticipated that the evaluation of sleep quality may prove useful to drive positive interventions and improve the quality of life in a proportion of patients. This review summarizes data linking sleep disorders with diet and a series of disease including gastro-esophageal reflux disease, peptic disease, functional gastrointestinal disorders, inflammatory bowel diseases, gut microbiota alterations, liver and pancreatic diseases, and obesity. The evidence supporting the complex interplay between sleep dysfunction, nutrition, and digestive diseases is discussed.

Abstract
Nonalcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD) is a multisystemic disease and a rapidly growing cause of chronic liver disease in children and adults worldwide. Diagnosis and management of extrahepatic manifestations of NAFLD, including cardiovascular disease (CVD), type 2 diabetes mellitus, metabolic syndrome, chronic kidney disease, obstructive sleep apnea, polycystic ovarian syndrome, hypothyroidism, psoriasis, and extrahepatic malignancy are crucial for the treatment of patients with NAFLD. The leading cause of death in NAFLD is primarily from CVD, followed by liver-related mortality, extrahepatic cancer, liver cancer, and diabetes-related mortality. Therefore, clinicians need to identify high-risk patients earlier in the disease course and be aware of the extrahepatic manifestations of NAFLD to improve liver disease outcomes. In this review, we focus on the monitoring and management of the extrahepatic manifestations of NAFLD.

Abstract
Chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) is a common disorder with an increasing prevalence, characterised by persistent respiratory symptoms and airflow limitation. Systemic inflammation is involved in the pathogenesis of COPD and can also predispose to metabolic disorders (e.g., metabolic syndrome (MetS) and non-alcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD)). Such comorbidities can negatively affect COPD outcomes, cardiovascular risk, and quality of life. Apart from NAFLD, abnormal peri-organ or intra-organ fat (APIFat) could be considered as markers for cardiometabolic diseases and even for COPD. The present narrative review considers the associations of COPD with MetS, NAFLD, and other APIFat, including epicardial, perirenal, peripancreatic, and intramuscular adipose tissue. Further research is needed to define these relationships and identify any potential clinical implications.

Abstract
Non-alcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD) is currently the most common chronic liver disease worldwide and comprises varied grades of intrahepatic lipid accumulation, inflammation, ballooning, and fibrosis; the most severe cases result in cirrhosis and liver failure. There is extensive clinical and experimental evidence indicating that chronic intermittent hypoxia, featuring a respiratory disorder of growing prevalence worldwide termed obstructive sleep apnea, could contribute to the progression of NAFLD from simple steatosis, also termed non-alcoholic fatty liver or hepatosteatosis, to non-alcoholic steatohepatitis; however, the molecular mechanisms by which hypoxia might contribute to hepatosteatosis setup and progression still remain to be fully elucidated. In this review, we have prepared an overview about the link between hypoxia and lipid accumulation within the liver, focusing on the impact of hypoxia on the molecular mechanisms underlying hepatosteatosis onset.

Abstract
Nocturnal intermittent hypoxia (IH) featuring obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) dysregulates hepatic lipid metabolism and might contribute to the development of non-alcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD) observed in OSA patients. However, further research is required to better understanding the molecular mechanisms underlying IH-induced hepatic lipid accumulation. Therefore, the aim of the present study was to determine the effects of OSA on hepatic CD36 expression and the impact of IH by using a mouse model of OSA. Histological analysis, lipid content and CD36 expression were assessed in livers from subjects who underwent liver biopsy and polygraphic study during sleep, and in livers from mice submitted to chronic IH mimicking OSA. Among those who presented OSA features, NAFLD were significantly more frequent than in control subjects with normal respiratory function (77.8 vs. 36.4%, respectively), and showed more severe liver disease. Interestingly, CD36 expression was significantly overexpressed within the liver of OSA patients with respect to controls, and a significant positive correlation was observed between hepatic levels of CD36 and the values of two well-known respiratory parameters that characterized OSA: apnea/hypopnea index (AHI) and oxygen desaturation index (ODI). Moreover, hepatic lipid accumulation as well as induction of hepatic lipogenic genes, and CD36 mRNA and protein expression were significantly higher in livers from mice exposed to IH conditions for 8 weeks than in their corresponding littermates. This study provides novel evidence that IH featuring OSA could contribute to NAFLD setup partly by upregulating hepatic CD36 expression.

Abstract
Purpose of review Sleep is intimately involved in overall health and wellbeing. We provide a comprehensive report on the interplay between systemic diseases and sleep to optimize the outcomes of systemic disorders. Recent findings Spanning the categories of endocrinologic disorders, metabolic/toxic disturbances, renal, cardiovascular, pulmonary, gastrointestinal, infectious diseases, autoimmune disorders, malignancy, and critical illness, the review highlights the prevalent coexisting pathology of sleep across the spectrum of systemic disorders. Although it is rare that treating a sleep symptom can cure disease, attention to sleep may improve quality of life and may mitigate or improve the underlying disorder. Recent controversies in assessing the cardiovascular relationship with sleep have called into question some of the benefits of treating comorbid sleep disorders, thereby highlighting the need for an ongoing rigorous investigation into how sleep interplays with systemic diseases. Summary Systemic diseases often have sleep manifestations and this report will help the clinician identify key risk factors linking sleep disorders to systemic diseases so as to optimize the overall care of the patient.

Abstract
Obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) is highly prevalent in the United States (US). Along with epidemic rates of obesity, the rate of OSA cases is also on the rise. OSA is associated with multiple chronic health conditions, including hypertension, diabetes, stroke, myocardial ischemia, and heart rhythm disturbances. OSA is commonly treated with continuous positive airway pressure (CPAP) therapy. Several reports indicate that effective treatment of OSA can reduce the risk of cardiovascular diseases, including cardiac arrhythmias, especially atrial fibrillation (AF). CPAP therapy helps to maintain sinus rhythm after interventions such as electrical cardioversion and catheter ablation in patients with AF. However, more data is required to establish a relationship between OSA and other atrial arrhythmias as well to evaluate the effect of CPAP. This review will compile the latest evidence on the pathophysiology, management, and treatment of atrial arrhythmias associated with OSA.

Abstract
BACKGROUND With the obesity epidemic reaching crisis levels, there has been attention around those who may be resilient to the effects of obesity, termed metabolically healthy obesity (MHO), who initially present without associated metabolic abnormalities. Few longitudinal studies have explored the relationship between MHO and non-alcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD), which we address using over 4 million primary care patient records. METHODS A retrospective population-based longitudinal cohort was conducted using The Health Improvement Network (THIN) database incorporating adults with no history of NAFLD or alcohol excess at baseline. Individuals were classified according to BMI category and metabolic abnormalities (diabetes, hypertension and dyslipidaemia). Diagnosis of NAFLD during follow-up was the primary outcome measure. NAFLD was identified by Read codes. RESULTS During a median follow-up period of 4.7 years, 12,867 (0.3%) incident cases of NAFLD were recorded in the cohort of 4,121,049 individuals. Compared to individuals with normal weight and no metabolic abnormalities, equivalent individuals who were overweight, or obese were at significantly greater risk of incident NAFLD (Adjusted HR 3.32 (95%CI 2.98-3.49), and 6.92 (6.40-7.48, respectively). Metabolic risk factors further increased risk, including in those with normal weight and 1 (2.27, 1.97-2.61) or = < 2 (2.39, 1.99-2.87) metabolic abnormalities. CONCLUSIONS MHO individuals are at greater risk of developing NAFLD compared to those with normal weight. This finding supports that the MHO phenotype is a temporary state, and weight must be considered a risk factor even before other risk factors develop. Being normal weight with metabolic abnormalities was also associated with risk of NAFLD.

Abstract
This review article aims to synthesize the evidence regarding nonalcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD) as a systemic disorder. We critically discuss the metabolic syndrome and its components; the cardiovascular and the endocrine system; chronic respiratory disorders; the musculoskeletal system; the skin; and extra-hepatic tumors. We conclude that, while some of these extra-hepatic conditions clearly predispose to the development of secondary forms of NAFLD (typically hypothyroidism-induced NAFLD), others result from pre-existent NAFLD (e.g., certain extra-hepatic tumors) and others (such as Type 2 Diabetes) have, with NAFLD, mutual and bidirectional associations. Analyzed data imply that NAFLD is not merely a hepatic disease. It is also and possibly more importantly, a systemic disorder requiring a special awareness, a multidisciplinary approach and a multidimensional vision.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Non-alcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD) is an emerging liver disease and currently the most common cause of incidental abnormal liver tests. The pathogenesis of NAFLD is multifactorial and many mechanisms that cause fatty liver infiltration, inflammation, oxidative stress and progressive fibrosis have been proposed. Obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) may be linked with the pathogenesis and the severity of NAFLD.
AIM To study the association between NAFLD and OSA considering also the efficacy of continuous positive airway pressure (CPAP) treatment.
METHODS A PubMed search was conducted using the terms “non-alcoholic fatty liver disease AND (obstructive sleep apnea OR obstructive sleep disorders OR sleep apnea)”. Research was limited to title/abstract of articles published in English in the last 5 years; animal and child studies, case reports, commentaries, letters, editorials and meeting abstracts were not considered. Data were extracted on a standardized data collection table which included: First author, publication year, country, study design, number of patients involved, diagnosis and severity of OSA, diagnosis of NAFLD, patient characteristics, results of the study.
RESULTS In total, 132 articles were initially retrieved on PubMed search and 77 in the last five years. After removal of irrelevant studies, 13 articles were included in the qualitative analysis. There was a total of 2753 participants across all the studies with a mean age between 42 and 58 years. The proportion of males ranged from 21% to 87.9% and the mean body mass index ranged from 24.0 to 49.9 kg/m2. The results of this review showed an increased prevalence of NAFLD in patients with diagnosis of OSA, even in the absence of coexisting comorbidities such as obesity or metabolic syndrome. Furthermore, the severity of NAFLD is associated with the increase in OSA severity. Effective CPAP treatment, although not always decisive, may stabilize or slow NAFLD progression with benefits on metabolic and cardiovascular functions.
CONCLUSION In NAFLD patients, although asymptomatic, it is recommended to systematically perform polysomnography in order to early and better treat them before the development of potentially life threatening systemic dysfunctions.

Abstract
Background Serum alanine aminotransferase (ALT) activity was measured not only to detect liver disease, but also to monitor overall health. The purpose of this study was to obtain the prevalence of elevated ALT levels among adolescents. Methods In a school-based cross-sectional study, a representative sample was analyzed from 9 middle and high schools in Shenzhen, China, during 2017 to 2018. Elevated ALT was defined as diagnostic criterion I (>30 U/L for boys and >19 U/L for girls) and diagnostic criterion II (>40 U/L). Results From the adolescent population, a total of 7281 students (boys, 4014, and girls, 3267) aged from 10 to 17 years were collected. The prevalence of elevated ALT was 7.11% (6.88% for boys and 7.41% for girls) by criterion I and 2.72% (3.96% for boys and 1.19% for girls) by criterion II. Based on the Shenzhen census and Chinese national census population, the adjusted prevalence of elevated ALT was 7.65% (boys 7.19% and girls 8.21%) and 6.79% (boys 6.07% and girls 7.56%) by criterion I and 2.85% (boys 4.20% and girls 1.16%) and 2.43% (boys 3.49% and girls 1.29%) by criterion II. For age, the overall trends were increasing progressively, regardless of the use of diagnostic criteria for an elevated ALT activity. Conclusions This study supplements the gap that the prevalence of elevated ALT levels differed in gender, age, and criteria among adolescents of Shenzhen. We should take the prevalence as a predictor and continue to play a warning and preventive role in preparation for further intervention.

Abstract
RATIONALE Chronic intermittent hypoxia occurring in obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) is independently associated with nonalcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD). Chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) has also been suggested to be linked with liver disease. OBJECTIVE In this individual participant data meta-analysis, we investigated the association between liver damage and OSA and COPD severity. METHODS AND MEASUREMENTS Patients suspected of OSA underwent polysomnography (PSG) or home sleep apnea testing (HSAT). Non-invasive tests were used to evaluate liver steatosis (Hepatic Steatosis Index) and fibrosis (Fibrotest or FibroMeter). An individual participant data meta-analysis approach was used to determine if the severity of OSA/COPD affects the type and severity of liver disease. Results were confirmed by multivariate and causal mediation analysis. Sub-group analyses were performed to investigate specific populations. MAIN RESULTS Among 2120 patients, 1584 had steatosis (75%). In multivariable analysis, risk factors for steatosis were an apnea-hypopnea index (AHI) > 5/h, body mass index (BMI) > 26 kg/m2, age, type 2 diabetes (all p-values <0.01) and male gender (p = 0.02). Concerning fibrosis, among 2218 patients 397 had fibrosis (18%). Risk factors associated with fibrosis were BMI>26 kg/m2, age, male gender, and type 2 diabetes (all p-values <0.01). AHI severity was not associated with fibrosis. A combination of AHI >30/h and COPD stage 1 was associated with an increased risk of steatosis. CONCLUSION This meta-analysis confirms the strong association between steatosis and the severity of OSA. The relation between OSA and fibrosis is mainly due to BMI as shown by causal mediation analysis.

Abstract
PURPOSE OF REVIEW Given the rising prevalence of obstructive sleep apnea (OSA), we aimed to review the epidemiologic and pathophysiologic relationship of OSA, hypertension, and cardiovascular disease, and to summarize recent advances in the treatment of OSA. RECENT FINDINGS OSA is associated with an elevated risk of hypertension and cardiovascular disease. Several pathophysiologic factors contribute to the relationship between OSA and vascular risk, including neurohormonal dysregulation, endothelial dysfunction, and inflammation. While CPAP reduces blood pressure, it has not been demonstrated to reduce cardiovascular risk. The combination of CPAP and weight loss has a synergistic effect on blood pressure and several metabolic parameters. Adherence to CPAP is poor across studies, potentially contributing to the attenuation of perceived cardiovascular benefit from CPAP therapy. A greater emphasis on adherence to CPAP and the combination of CPAP and weight loss are central to reducing cardiovascular risk among individuals with OSA.

Abstract
Nonalcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD) is a spectrum of disease, extending from simple steatosis to inflammation and fibrosis with a significant risk for the development of cirrhosis. It is highly prevalent and is associated with significant adverse outcomes both through liver-specific morbidity and mortality but, perhaps more important, through adverse cardiovascular and metabolic outcomes. It is closely associated with type 2 diabetes and obesity, and both of these conditions drive progressive disease toward the more advanced stages. The mechanisms that govern hepatic lipid accumulation and the predisposition to inflammation and fibrosis are still not fully understood but reflect a complex interplay between metabolic target tissues including adipose and skeletal muscle, and immune and inflammatory cells. The ability to make an accurate assessment of disease stage (that relates to clinical outcome) can also be challenging. While liver biopsy is still regarded as the gold-standard investigative tool, there is an extensive literature on the search for novel noninvasive biomarkers and imaging modalities that aim to accurately reflect the stage of underlying disease. Finally, although no therapies are currently licensed for the treatment of NAFLD, there are interventions that appear to have proven efficacy in randomized controlled trials as well as an extensive emerging therapeutic landscape of new agents that target many of the fundamental pathophysiological processes that drive NAFLD. It is highly likely that over the next few years, new treatments with a specific license for the treatment of NAFLD will become available.

Abstract
Obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) as a worldwide prevalent condition carries risk for cardiovascular and metabolic diseases, ultimately increasing overall mortality rates. Non-alcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD) can be considered as the primary metabolic disease, but also as a coexisting OSA comorbidity. Although prevalence of NAFLD covers quarter of world population, it increases with OSA presence. It can be speculated that chronic intermittent hypoxia (CIH) and sympathetic nervous system overactivity are involved in NAFLD pathogenesis and progression from simple steatosis through steatohepatitis to fibrosis. CIH provides the environment for liver oxidative stress, inflammation and increases the expression of genes involved in cholesterol and fatty acids synthesis. Catecholamines increase b-oxidation in liver and release free fatty acids from adipose tissue in plasma which inhibit insulin effects. Obesity and insulin resistance as key players in NAFLD development and advancement, deepen vicious circle of oxidative stress, inflammation and dyslipidemia. If not treated, OSA in NAFLD patients has been associated with inflammation, hepatocytes' necrosis, and fibrosis. Continuous positive airway pressure (CPAP) represents gold standard for OSA therapy, allowing the unimpeded air passage through upper parts of respiratory system. However, it has been demonstrated that CPAP therapy have beneficial effects on cardiometabolic outcomes and slow liver degeneration.

Abstract
Nonalcoholic steatohepatitis is the fastest-growing indication for the liver transplant and a leading cause of hepatocellular carcinoma among patients listed for liver transplantation in the USA. Post-transplant nonalcoholic hepatic steatosis and steatohepatitis are frequent complications of liver transplantation. Nonalcoholic steatohepatitis poses a significant challenge in both pre- and post-transplant period due to its association with metabolic syndrome, coronary artery disease, chronic kidney disease, and obstructive sleep apnea. While optimal therapy is not yet available in the post-liver transplant setting, lifestyle interventions continue to remain as the mainstay of therapy for post-transplant nonalcoholic steatohepatitis. Early recognition with protocol biopsies and noninvasive modalities, along with modification of known risk factors, are the most effective methods to curtail the progression of nonalcoholic steatohepatitis in the absence of FDA-approved pharmacologic therapy.

Abstract
Obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) is defined by repetitive collapse of the upper airway during sleep leading to transient hypoxemia and arousals from sleep. Surges in sympathetic activity, repeated oxygen desaturation, and sleep fragmentation can lead to cardiovascular (eg, myocardial infarction) and neurocognitive (eg, excessive daytime sleepiness) consequences. Emerging data suggest that OSA is common in people living with human immunodeficiency virus (PLWH) and that traditional risk factors for OSA, such as obesity, are not highly predictive of OSA in PLWH. Untreated OSA is associated with increased fatigue and levels of inflammation. Despite these data, most PLWH with OSA remain undiagnosed and untreated. Improved awareness of OSA among healthcare providers and greater use of OSA diagnostic approaches have the potential to substantially improve quality of life and outcomes in PLWH.

Abstract
Among the seven small ubiquitin-like modifier (SUMO)-specific proteases (SENPs), our previous work showed that SENP1 suppressed nuclear factor kappa B (NF-κB) activation and alleviates the inflammatory response in microglia. However, the mechanism is still largely unknown. In this study, western blot analysis and enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay were utilized for evaluating the extent of NF-κB activation and expression of proinflammatory cytokines. qPCR and western blot analysis were performed to detect SENP1 expression. Coimmunoprecipitation followed by western blot analysis was applied to measure the changes in SUMOylation of NF-κB essential modulator (NEMO) and P65 in microglia with or without overexpression of SENP1. As the results, we found that intermittent hypoxia (IH) triggered the activation of NF-κB and upregulated the expression levels of tumor necrosis factor-α and interleukin-6. Interestingly, our data indicated that the SUMOylation of NEMO was enhanced by IH while SUMOylation of P65 was not affected. Further, our data showed that overexpression of SENP1 could decrease the extent of NF-κB activation and inhibit the inflammatory response of microglia through regulating the SUMOylation of NEMO. Collectively, this study presents the first report of the SENP1-controlled de-SUMOylation process of NEMO and its critical role in regulating NF-κB activation and proinflammatory cytokines secretion in microglia cells. This study would benefit for clarifying the role of SENP1 in IH-induced activation of microglia, thus providing potential therapeutic targets for obstructive sleep apnea treatment.

Abstract
Nonalcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD) is the most common cause of chronic liver disease worldwide and its incidence is definitely increasing. NAFLD is a metabolic disease with extensive multi-organ involvement, whose extra-hepatic manifestations include type 2 diabetes mellitus, cardiovascular disease, obstructive sleep apnea, chronic kidney disease, osteoporosis, and polycystic ovarian syndrome. Recently, further evidence has given attention to pathological correlations not strictly related to metabolic disease, also incorporating in this broad spectrum of systemic involvement hypothyroidism, psoriasis, male sexual dysfunction, periodontitis, and urolithiasis. The most common cause of mortality in NAFLD is represented by cardiovascular disease, followed by liver-related complications. Therefore, clinicians should learn to screen and initiate treatment for these extra-hepatic manifestations, in order to provide appropriate multidisciplinary assessments and rigorous surveillance. This review evaluates the current evidence regarding extra-hepatic associations of NAFLD, focusing on the pathogenic hypothesis and the clinical implications.

Abstract
The progression of liver disease is portrayed by several common, overarching signs and symptoms. Classically, these include findings such as spider angiomata, jaundice, palmar erythema, and as cirrhosis decompensates, ascites, variceal hemorrhage (VH), hepatic encephalopathy (HE), and hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC). Aside from these universal hallmarks among cirrhotics, patients with nonalcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD) and alcoholic liver disease (ALD) harbor their own distinct systemic associations and manifestations. NAFLD is tightly linked to metabolic syndrome, which appears to be a driving force for a multitude of comorbidities, such as insulin resistance, cardiovascular disease, chronic kidney disease (CKD), obstructive sleep apnea (OSA), as well as increased malignancy risk. ALD also maintains a variety of comorbidities congruent with systemic effects of chronic alcohol use. These findings are highlighted by cardiovascular conditions, neuronal damage, myopathy, nutritional deficiencies, chronic pancreatitis, in addition to increased malignancy risk. While a general, guideline-driven management for all cirrhotic patients remains imperative for minimizing risk of complications, a tailored treatment strategy is useful for patients with NAFLD and ALD who entertain their own constellation of unique systemic manifestations.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE Often unrecognized, obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) worsens over pregnancy and is associated with poorer perinatal outcomes. The association between OSA in late pregnancy and metabolic biomarkers remains poorly understood. We tested the hypothesis that OSA in pregnant women with obesity is positively correlated with 24-hour patterns of glycemia and IR despite controlling for diet. DESIGN Pregnant women (32 to 34 weeks' gestation; body mass index, 30 to 40 kg/m2) wore a continuous glucose monitor for 3 days. OSA was measured in-home by WatchPAT 200™ [apnea hypopnea index (AHI), oxygen desaturation index (ODI; number per hour)]. Fasting blood was collected followed by a 2-hour, 75-g, oral glucose tolerance test to measure IR. Association between AHI and 24-hour glucose area under the curve (AUC) was the powered outcome. RESULTS Of 18 women (29.4 ± 1.4 years of age [mean ± SEM]), 12 (67%) had an AHI ≥5 (mild OSA). AHI and ODI were correlated with 24-hour glucose AUC (r = 0.50 to 0.54; P ≤ 0.03) and mean 24-hour glucose (r = 0.55 to 0.59; P ≤ 0.02). AHI and ODI were correlated with estimated hepatic IR (r = 0.59 to 0.74; P < 0.01), fasting free fatty acids (fFFAs; r = 0.53 to 0.56; P < 0.05), and waking cortisol (r = 0.49 to 0.64; P < 0.05). CONCLUSIONS Mild OSA is common in pregnant women with obesity and correlated with increased glycemic profiles, fFFAs, and estimates of hepatic IR. OSA is a potentially treatable target to optimize maternal glycemia and metabolism, fetal fuel supply, and pregnancy outcomes.

Abstract
Nonalcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD), a disorder of altered metabolic pathways, is increasing worldwide. Recent studies established obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) and chronic intermittent hypoxia (CIH) as NAFLD risk factors. Studies have ascertained that CIH is independently related to NAFLD. Continuous positive airway pressure (CPAP) shows inconsistent results regarding its efficacy in improving NAFLD. Observational, longer duration CPAP therapy studies have shown positive outcomes, whereas shorter duration, randomized controlled trials have shown no benefit. A multifaceted approach to NAFLD management with sufficiently longer duration of CPAP therapy may be beneficial in patients with moderate to severe OSA.

Abstract
Nonalcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD) affects nearly one third of the population worldwide. Mexico is one of the countries whose population has several risk factors for the disease and its prevalence could surpass 50%. If immediate action is not taken to counteract what is now considered a national health problem, the medium-term panorama will be very bleak. This serious situation prompted the Asociación Mexicana de Gastroenterología and the Asociación Mexicana de Hepatología to produce the Mexican Consensus on Fatty Liver Disease. It is an up-to-date and detailed review of the epidemiology, pathophysiology, clinical forms, diagnosis, and treatment of the disease, whose aim is to provide the Mexican physician with a useful tool for the prevention and management of nonalcoholic fatty liver disease.

Sleep Breath 2018; 23:373-378. [PMID: 30349997 PMCID: PMC6418049 DOI: 10.1007/s11325-018-1744-1] [Citation(s) in RCA: 7] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.2] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Download PDF] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 07/26/2018] [Revised: 10/07/2018] [Accepted: 10/15/2018] [Indexed: 12/17/2022]
Abstract
Purpose Growing evidence has revealed that nonalcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD) is associated with type 2 diabetes. This study aimed to assess the association between glycometabolism and NAFLD in patients with obstructive sleep apnea (OSA). Methods Patients with suspected OSA were enrolled consecutively and then underwent polysomnography, liver ultrasound, and biochemical measurements. Logistic regressions were used to identify factors associated with NAFLD. Results In total, 415 patients were included. The prevalence of NAFLD in the non-OSA, mild OSA, moderate OSA, and severe OSA groups was 37.21%, 69.09%, 68.34%, and 78.08%, respectively. Stepwise logistic regression suggested that percentage of total sleep time spent with oxygen saturation of < 90% (TS90), lowest oxygen saturation (LaSO2), and homeostatic model assessment of insulin resistance (HOMA-IR) were independently associated with NAFLD in all subjects, after adjusting for confounders (odds ratio [OR] = 1.037, p = 0.014; OR = 1.056, p = 0.004; OR = 0.732, p = 0.009; respectively). TS90, LaSO2, and HOMA-IR were also independent predictors for NAFLD in patients with mild and moderate OSA, whereas TS90, LaSO2, and ODI were independent predictors for NAFLD in patients with severe OSA. Conclusions There is a relationship between OSA and NAFLD, and the combination of disordered glycometabolism and intermittent hypoxia may act as a “two hit” mechanism to promote the development of NAFLD. Furthermore, intermittent hypoxia alone was an independent predictor for NAFLD in severe OSA patients.
