Abstract
Upper airway collapse and apneas in obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) induce intermittent hypercapnia and hypoxia, eventually contributing to excessive uric acid production. This study aimed to evaluate the association between hyperuricemia and OSA in the general population via analysis of the eighth KNHANES dataset (2019-2021). OSA risk was identified via the STOP-Bang questionnaire, with a score ≥3 indicating high risk. Among 11,981 total participants, 4572 (38.2%) had a high OSA risk. Participants with a high OSA risk had higher uric acid levels compared to those with a low risk (5.5 ± 1.4 mg/dL vs. 4.8 ± 1.2 mg/dL, p < 0.001). Serum uric acid levels were positively correlated with STOP-Bang score (r: 0.317, p < 0.001). Multivariate analysis revealed that hyperuricemia was associated with a high OSA risk after adjusting for confounders (odds ratio: 1.30, 95%CI: 1.11-1.53, p = 0.001). Therefore, serum uric acid levels are significantly higher in those with a high OSA risk and correlate with the risk of OSA. Further, hyperuricemia is an independently associated risk factor for high OSA risk. More research is warranted to evaluate the long-term clinical outcomes of hyperuricemia in OSA and to determine whether treatment targeting hyperuricemia is effective in the clinical course of OSA.

Abstract
Objectives Obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) can adversely affect the immune response through clinical factors such as hypoxia, inflammation, and sleep disturbance. Since SARS-CoV-2 heavily relies on local and systemic host immune responses, this study aims to examine the links between the severity of OSA risk, cytokine levels, and the severity of symptoms associated with SARS-CoV-2 infection. Methods Saliva and blood samples from 50 COVID-19 patients and 30 non-infected hospital staff members were collected. Using Luminex multiplex analysis, 65 blood and salivary cytokines were examined from the collected samples. Ordinal logistic regression analysis was utilized to examine the association between the self-reported risk of OSA, assessed through the STOP-Bang questionnaire, and the likelihood of experiencing severe symptoms of COVID-19. Mann-Whitney test was then performed to compare the cytokine levels between individuals with moderate to severe risk of OSA to those with a mild risk of OSA. Results Ordinal logistic regression analysis revealed that individuals with a moderate to severe risk of OSA were 7.60 times more likely to experience more severe symptoms of COVID-19 compared to those with a mild risk of OSA (OR = 7.60, 95%CI: 3.03, 19.06, p < 0.001). Moreover, among COVID-19-positive patients with a moderate to severe risk of OSA, there was a statistically significant negative correlation with serum IL-6 (p < 0.05), Eotaxin (CCL11) (p = 0.04), and salivary MIP-3α/CCL20 (p = 0.04). In contrast, individuals without COVID-19 who had a moderate to severe risk of OSA exhibited a significant positive correlation with serum IL-6 (p = 0.04). Conclusion Individuals with moderate to severe risk of OSA were more likely to experience severe COVID-19 symptoms than those with mild risk for OSA. Additional analysis from the present studies revealed distinct patterns of oral and systemic immune responses between individuals with mild and moderate to severe risk of OSA. Findings from the present study underscores the importance of early detection and management of OSA to improve clinical outcomes, particularly when faced with the subsequent superimposed infection such as COVID-19.

Abstract
Obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) has long been studied in patients with obesity and type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM), due to the fact that both disorders are commonly associated with an increased body mass index (BMI). However, a link between OSA and non-obese diabetic patients is still not very elaborated, nor heavily explored. In this review, we elucidate some proposed mechanisms for the link between OSA and diabetic patients both with and beyond obesity, shedding the light on the latter case. One such mechanism is oxidative stress, a phenomenon of reactive oxygen species (ROS) imbalance seen in both of the previously mentioned disorders. A plausible explanation for the OSA-induced ROS production is the repeating episodes of hypoxia and reperfusion and their effect on the mitochondrial electron transport chain. This paper explores the literature regarding ROS imbalance as the possible missing link between OSA and Diabetes Mellitus beyond obesity, while still mentioning other possible proposed mechanisms such as a dysregulated autonomic nervous system (ANS), as well as mechanical and craniofacial abnormalities. This paper also suggests a link between OSA and diabetic complications, while exploring the clinical progress made in treating the former disorder with anti-oxidant and hypo-glycemic drugs. If further investigated, these findings could help identify novel therapeutic interventions for the treatment of OSA and Diabetic patients.

Abstract
Significance: Gasotransmitters are small gas molecules that are endogenously generated and have well-defined physiological functions. The most well-defined gasotransmitters currently are nitric oxide (NO), carbon monoxide (CO), and hydrogen sulfide (H2S), while other potent gasotransmitters include ammonia, methane, cyanide, hydrogen gas, and sulfur dioxide. Gasotransmitters play a role in various respiratory diseases such as asthma, chronic obstructive pulmonary disease, obstructive sleep apnea, lung infection, bronchiectasis, cystic fibrosis, primary ciliary dyskinesia, and COVID-19. Recent Advances: Gasotransmitters can act as biomarkers that facilitate disease diagnosis, indicate disease severity, predict disease exacerbation, and evaluate disease outcomes. They also have cell-protective properties, and many studies have been conducted to explore their pharmacological applications. Innovative drug donors and drug delivery methods have been invented to amplify their therapeutic effects. Critical Issues: In this article, we briefly reviewed the physiological and pathophysiological functions of some gasotransmitters in the respiratory system, the progress in detecting exhaled gasotransmitters, as well as innovative drugs derived from these molecules. Future Directions: The current challenge for gasotransmitter research includes further exploring their physiological and pathological functions, clarifying their complicated interactions, exploring suitable drug donors and delivery devices, and characterizing new members of gasotransmitters.

Abstract
Erectile dysfunction (ED) incidence is higher in patients with obstructive sleep apnea (OSA). Studies have suggested that ED and OSA may activate similar pathways; however, few have investigated the links between their underlying genotypic profiles. Therefore, we conducted an in-silico analysis to test whether ED and OSA share genetic variants of risk and to identify any molecular, cellular and biological interactions between them. Two gene lists were manually curated through a literature review based on a PUBMED search, which resulted in one gene list associated with ED (total of 205 genes) and the other with OSA (total of 2622 genes). Between those gene sets, 35 were common for both lists (Fisher exact test, p-value = 0.027). The Protein-protein interaction (PPI) analysis using the intersect list as input showed that 3 of them had direct interactions (LPL, DGKB and PLCB1). In addition, the biological function of the genes contained in the intersect list suggested that pathways related to lipid metabolism and the neuromuscular junction were commonly found in the genetic basis of ED and OSA. From the shared genes between both conditions, the biological pathways highlighted in this study may serve as preliminary findings for future functional investigations on OSA and ED association.

Abstract
Cardiovascular diseases (CVDs), such as arterial hypertension, myocardial infarction, stroke, heart failure, atrial fibrillation, etc., still represent the main cause of morbidity and mortality worldwide. They significantly modify the patients' quality of life with a tremendous economic impact. It is well established that cardiovascular risk factors increase the probability of fatal and non-fatal cardiac events. These risk factors are classified into modifiable (smoking, arterial hypertension, hypercholesterolemia, low HDL cholesterol, diabetes, excessive alcohol consumption, high-fat and high-calorie diet, reduced physical activity) and non-modifiable (sex, age, family history, of previous cardiovascular disease). Hence, CVD prevention is based on early identification and management of modifiable risk factors whose impact on the CV outcome is now performed by the use of CV risk assessment models, such as the Framingham Risk Score, Pooled Cohort Equations, or the SCORE2. However, in recent years, emerging, non-traditional factors (metabolic and non-metabolic) seem to significantly affect this assessment. In this article, we aim at defining these emerging factors and describe the potential mechanisms by which they might contribute to the development of CVD.

Abstract
Introduction Obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) is known to increase the risk of various cancers. By analyzing the Korea National Health Insurance Service (KNHIS) registry, the impact of OSA on the lung cancer incidence was analyzed in a retrospective cohort group. Methods A retrospective cohort of adult patients newly registered with OSA in the KNHIS data from 2007 to 2017 was included and observed until December 2019 (12 years). The main outcome measure was newly diagnosed lung cancer. The control group was set with age and sex that matched those in the OSA group. Results The hazard ratio (HR) of OSA for lung cancer incidence showed a significantly reduced HR of 0.87 (95% CI, 0.82-0.93). The observed significance of this finding was limited to male OSA patients [HR, 0.84 (95% CI, 0.78-0.90)], while no significant association was found in female OSA patients [HR, 1.05 (95% CI, 0.91-1.21)], irrespective of their age. Discussion OSA patients have a lower risk of developing lung cancer, but this risk reduction is gender-specific, as female OSA patients do not show a reduction in hazard ratio.

Abstract
Obstructive sleep apnoea (OSA) is a prevalent disorder that causes repetitive, temporary collapses of the upper airways during sleep, resulting in intermittent hypoxaemia and sleep fragmentation. Given those with OSA also exhibit decreased blood fluidity, this clinical population is at heightened risk for cardiovascular disease (CVD) development. Continuous positive airway pressure (CPAP) remains a primary therapy in OSA, which improves sleep quality and limits sleep fragmentation. While CPAP effectively ameliorates nocturnal hypoxic events and associated arousals, it remains unclear whether CVD risk factors are positively impacted. The aim of the present study was thus to assess the effects of an acute CPAP therapy on sleep quality and the physical properties of blood that determine blood fluidity. Sixteen participants with suspected OSA were recruited into the current study. Participants attended the sleep laboratory for two visits: an initial diagnostic visit that included confirmation of OSA severity and comprehensive assessments of blood parameters, followed by a subsequent visit where participants were administered an individualised, acute CPAP therapy session and had their blood assessments repeated. Holistic appraisal of blood rheological properties included assessment of blood and plasma viscosity, red blood cell (RBC) aggregation, deformability, and osmotic gradient ektacytometry. Acute CPAP treatment significantly improved sleep quality parameters, which were associated with decreased nocturnal arousals and improved blood oxygen saturation. Whole blood viscosity was significantly decreased following acute CPAP treatment, which might be explained by the improved RBC aggregation during this visit. Although an acute increase in plasma viscosity was observed, it appears that the alterations in RBC properties that mediate cell-cell aggregation, and thus blood viscosity, overcame the increased plasma viscosity. While deformability of RBC was unaltered, CPAP therapy had mild effects on the osmotic tolerance of RBC. Collectively, novel observations demonstrate that a single CPAP treatment session acutely improved sleep quality, which was accompanied by improved rheological properties.

Abstract
Obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) has been linked to an increased risk of acquiring many types of cancer. No data on the prevalence of testicular cancer in OSA patients have been reported in the literature. The goal of the present investigation is to find out the impact of OSA on the incidence of testicular cancer based on the Korea National Health Insurance Service (KNHIS) dataset. A cohort of adult male patients newly registered with OSA in the KNHIS data from 2007 to 2014 who had no history of any previous cancer diagnosis was included. The main outcome measure was newly diagnosed testicular cancer in the National Medical Expenses Support Program. The control group was set at five times larger than the OSA group, and it was matched with age and sex. The cumulative incidence and hazard ratio (HR) for the development of testicular cancer were compared between the OSA and control groups. Further subgroup analysis was conducted in the three different age groups. In the study period, a total of 152,801 male adult patients newly diagnosed with OSA were included, whereas 764,005 individuals were recruited as the control group. The HR of OSA for developing testicular cancer was 1.58 (95% confidence interval [CI]: 0.92-2.60), showing no significant HR regardless of confounding adjustment. However, the subgroup analysis revealed a significantly increased HR to develop testicular cancer of 3.39 (95% CI: 1.08-10.06) in groups aged more than 65, whereas the age ranges of 20-40 and 40-64 showed no significance (1.19 (0.44-2.75) and 1.27 (0.50-2.80), respectively). OSA may not influence the incidence of testicular cancer in the general adult population. However, compared to younger males, males over 65 may be more susceptible to OSA when it comes to developing testicular cancer.

Abstract
Background: The identification of circulating markers of oxidative stress and systemic inflammation might enhance risk stratification in obstructive sleep apnea (OSA). We investigated the association between specific haematological parameters, as easily measurable markers of oxidative stress and inflammation, and the degree of hypoxia during polysomnography using the apnea hypopnea index (AHI), oxygen desaturation index (ODI), and oxygen saturation (SpO2), in OSA patients. Methods: Associations between polysomnographic parameters and demographic, clinical, and laboratory characteristics were assessed in a consecutive series of patients with OSA attending the Respiratory Disease Unit of the University Hospital of Sassari, north Sardinia (Italy), between 2015 and 2019. Results: In 259 OSA patients (195 males and 64 females), the body mass index (BMI) was significantly and positively associated with the AHI and ODI, and negatively associated with the mean SpO2. No haematological parameter was independently associated with the AHI or ODI. By contrast, albumin, neutrophil, and monocyte counts, and the systemic inflammatory response index (SIRI) were independently associated with a lower SpO2. Conclusions: Our results suggest that albumin and specific haematological parameters are promising markers of reduced oxygen saturation in OSA.

Abstract
Disorders of autonomic functions are typically characterized by disturbances in multiple organ systems. These disturbances are often comorbidities of common and rare diseases, such as epilepsy, sleep apnea, Rett syndrome, congenital heart disease or mitochondrial diseases. Characteristic of many autonomic disorders is the association with intermittent hypoxia and oxidative stress, which can cause or exaggerate a variety of other autonomic dysfunctions, making the treatment and management of these syndromes very complex. In this review we discuss the cellular mechanisms by which intermittent hypoxia can trigger a cascade of molecular, cellular and network events that result in the dysregulation of multiple organ systems. We also describe the importance of computational approaches, artificial intelligence and the analysis of big data to better characterize and recognize the interconnectedness of the various autonomic and non-autonomic symptoms. These techniques can lead to a better understanding of the progression of autonomic disorders, ultimately resulting in better care and management.

Abstract
Brachycephalic dogs with brachycephalic obstructive airway syndrome (BOAS) are a valuable animal model for obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) in humans. Clinical signs of upper airway obstruction improve after surgical treatment of BOAS, but the impact of surgery on morphology and function of the heart has not been studied. Therefore, we aimed to compare the echocardiographic variables of dogs before and after surgical treatment of BOAS. We included 18 client-owned dogs with BOAS (7 French Bulldogs, 6 Boston Terriers, and 5 Pugs) scheduled for surgical correction. We performed a complete echocardiographic examination before and 6 to 12 (median 9) months after surgery. Seven non-brachycephalic dogs were included in the control group. After surgery, BOAS patients had a significantly (p < 0.05) larger left atrium to aortic ratio (LA/Ao), left atrium in the long axis index, and thickness of the left ventricular posterior wall in diastole index. They also had a higher late diastolic annular velocity of the interventricular septum (Am) and increased global right ventricular strain and left ventricular global strain in the apical 4-chamber view, as well as a higher caudal vena cava collapsibility index (CVCCI). Before surgery, BOAS patients had a significantly lower CVCCI, Am, peak systolic annular velocity of the interventricular septum (Si), and early diastolic annular velocity of the interventricular septum (Ei) compared to non-brachycephalic dogs. After surgery, BOAS patients had a smaller right ventricular internal diameter at base index, right ventricular area in systole index, mitral annular plane systolic excursion index, and tricuspid annular plane systolic excursion index, as well as lower values of Am, Si, Ei, and late diastolic annular velocity of the interventricular septum, and a larger LA/Ao compared to non-brachycephalic dogs. Significant differences between BOAS patients and non-brachycephalic dogs indicate higher right heart pressures and decreased systolic and diastolic ventricular function in BOAS dogs, which is in accordance with the results of studies in OSA patients. In parallel with the marked clinical improvement, right heart pressures decreased, and right ventricular systolic and diastolic function improved after surgery.

MEDICINA (KAUNAS, LITHUANIA) 2023; 59:medicina59050873.

Abstract
Backgrounds and Objectives: Obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) is associated with increased morbidity and mortality. OSA is an independent risk factor for many different conditions, especially cardiovascular diseases. The purpose of this study was to ascertain the comorbidity profile of non-obese patients with newly diagnosed OSA and evaluate the risk for cardiovascular disease and mortality. The present study also aimed to establish predictors for OSA severity. Materials and Methods: This study included 138 newly diagnosed patients who underwent polysomnographic analysis. The 10-year risk for cardiovascular disease was assessed using a newly validated prediction model: Systematic Coronary Risk Evaluation (SCORE-2). In addition, the Charlson Comorbidity Index (CCI) was assessed as a widely-used example of a mortality comorbidity index. Results: The study population included 138 patients: 86 males and 52 females. Patients were stratified, according to AHI (apnea/hypopnea index), into four groups: 33 patients had mild OSA (5 ≤ AHI < 15), 33 patients had moderate OSA (15 ≤ AHI < 30), 31 patients had severe OSA (AHI ≥ 30), and 41 individuals had AHI < 5, which were a part of the control group. SCORE-2 increased in line with OSA severity and was higher in OSA groups compared to the control group (H = 29.913; DF = 3; p < 0.001). Charlson Index was significantly higher in OSA patients compared to controls (p = 0.001), with a higher prevalence of total comorbidities in the OSA group of patients. Furthermore, CCI 10-year survival score was significantly lower in the OSA group, suggesting a shorter survival of those patients with a more severe form of OSA. We also examined the prediction model for OSA severity. Conclusions: Determining the comorbidity profile and estimation of the 10-year risk score of OSA patients could be used to classify these patients into various mortality risk categories and, according to that, provide them with adequate treatment.

Transcriptomic Profiling and Pathway Analysis of Mesenchymal Stem Cells Following Low Dose-Rate Radiation Exposure. Antioxidants (Basel) 2023; 12:antiox12020241. [PMID: 36829800 PMCID: PMC9951969 DOI: 10.3390/antiox12020241] [Citation(s) in RCA: 2] [Impact Index Per Article: 2.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 12/21/2022] [Revised: 01/17/2023] [Accepted: 01/19/2023] [Indexed: 01/26/2023] Open
Abstract
Low dose-rate radiation exposure can occur in medical imaging, as background from environmental or industrial radiation, and is a hazard of space travel. In contrast with high dose-rate radiation exposure that can induce acute life-threatening syndromes, chronic low-dose radiation is associated with Chronic Radiation Syndrome (CRS), which can alter environmental sensitivity. Secondary effects of chronic low dose-rate radiation exposure include circulatory, digestive, cardiovascular, and neurological diseases, as well as cancer. Here, we investigated 1-2 Gy, 0.66 cGy/h, 60Co radiation effects on primary human mesenchymal stem cells (hMSC). There was no significant induction of apoptosis or DNA damage, and cells continued to proliferate. Gene ontology (GO) analysis of transcriptome changes revealed alterations in pathways related to cellular metabolism (cholesterol, fatty acid, and glucose metabolism), extracellular matrix modification and cell adhesion/migration, and regulation of vasoconstriction and inflammation. Interestingly, there was increased hypoxia signaling and increased activation of pathways regulated by iron deficiency, but Nrf2 and related genes were reduced. The data were validated in hMSC and human lung microvascular endothelial cells using targeted qPCR and Western blotting. Notably absent in the GO analysis were alteration pathways for DNA damage response, cell cycle inhibition, senescence, and pro-inflammatory response that we previously observed for high dose-rate radiation exposure. Our findings suggest that cellular gene transcription response to low dose-rate ionizing radiation is fundamentally different compared to high-dose-rate exposure. We hypothesize that cellular response to hypoxia and iron deficiency are driving processes, upstream of the other pathway regulation.

Abstract
While multiple factors are associated with cardiovascular disease (CVD), many environmental exposures that may contribute to CVD have not been examined. To understand environmental effects on cardiovascular health, we performed an exposome-wide association study (ExWAS), a hypothesis-free approach, using survey data on endogenous and exogenous exposures at home and work and data from health and medical histories from the North Carolina-based Personalized Environment and Genes Study (PEGS) (n = 5015). We performed ExWAS analyses separately on six cardiovascular outcomes (cardiac arrhythmia, congestive heart failure, coronary artery disease, heart attack, stroke, and a combined atherogenic-related outcome comprising angina, angioplasty, atherosclerosis, coronary artery disease, heart attack, and stroke) using logistic regression and a false discovery rate of 5%. For each CVD outcome, we tested 502 single exposures and built multi-exposure models using the deletion-substitution-addition (DSA) algorithm. To evaluate complex nonlinear relationships, we employed the knockoff boosted tree (KOBT) algorithm. We adjusted all analyses for age, sex, race, BMI, and annual household income. ExWAS analyses revealed novel associations that include blood type A (Rh-) with heart attack (OR[95%CI] = 8.2[2.2:29.7]); paint exposures with stroke (paint related chemicals: 6.1[2.2:16.0], acrylic paint: 8.1[2.6:22.9], primer: 6.7[2.2:18.6]); biohazardous materials exposure with arrhythmia (1.8[1.5:2.3]); and higher paternal education level with reduced risk of multiple CVD outcomes (stroke, heart attack, coronary artery disease, and combined atherogenic outcome). In multi-exposure models, trouble sleeping and smoking remained important risk factors. KOBT identified significant nonlinear effects of sleep disorder, regular intake of grapefruit, and a family history of blood clotting problems for multiple CVD outcomes (combined atherogenic outcome, congestive heart failure, and coronary artery disease). In conclusion, using statistics and machine learning, these findings identify novel potential risk factors for CVD, enable hypothesis generation, provide insights into the complex relationships between risk factors and CVD, and highlight the importance of considering multiple exposures when examining CVD outcomes.

Abstract
We recently reported pheochromocytoma 12 (PC12) cells and rats subjected to intermittent hypoxia (IH), a hallmark manifestation of obstructive sleep apnea (OSA), exhibit reduced histone deacetylase activity and HDAC5 protein. Our study further suggested that posttranslational modifications rather than transcriptional mechanism(s) mediate IH-induced HDAC5 degradation. These observations prompted our current study to investigate the mechanism(s) underlying HDAC5 degradation by IH in PC12 cell cultures. IH-induced HDAC5 degradation was blocked by an antioxidant, and reactive oxygen species (ROS) mimetics decreased HDAC5 protein, suggesting that ROS mediates HDAC5 degradation by IH. NADPH oxidases (NOX) 2 and 4 were identified as sources of ROS that mediate the effects of IH. HDAC5 degradation during IH was associated with dephosphorylation of HDAC5 at serine259, and this response was blocked by a NOX inhibitor, suggesting that ROS-dependent dephosphorylation mediates HDAC5 degradation. IH-induced dephosphorylation of HDCA5 was inhibited by calyculin A, an inhibitor of protein phosphatase (PP)-1 and -2, or by the overexpression of nuclear inhibitor of PP1 (NIPP1). HDAC5 dephosphorylation by IH lead to augmented hypoxia-inducible factor (HIF)-1α protein and an increase in its transcriptional activity. These data suggest that PP1-dependent dephosphorylation of S259 destabilizes HDAC5 protein in response to IH, resulting in HIF-1α stabilization and transcriptional activity. Our findings highlight hither to unexplored role of protein phosphatases, especially PP1 in regulating HDAC5 protein, which is an upstream activator of HIF-1 signaling by IH.

Abstract
Obstructive sleep apnoea (OSA) is characterized by overproduction of reactive oxygen species and oxidative stress. The antioxidant enzyme paraoxonase-1 (PON-1) may be useful for monitoring the antioxidant defence systems and the effect of treatments in OSA patients. We investigated, by means of systematic review and meta-analysis, the serum concentrations of PON-1 in OSA patients and non-OSA controls. A literature search was conducted in PubMed, Web of Science, Scopus and Google Scholar databases, from the outset to November 2021, utilizing the terms: “paraoxonase” or “PON” or “paraoxonase-1” or “PON-1” and “obstructive sleep apnoea syndrome” or “OSAS” or “OSA”. Eleven studies in 429 OSA patients and 258 non-OSA controls were involved in the meta-analysis. The pooled serum PON-1 concentrations were significantly lower in OSA (standardized mean difference (SMD) = −0.70, 95% CI −1.13 to −0.28; p = 0.001). Despite the extreme between-study heterogeneity, the SMD values were not substantially affected by the sequential omission of individual studies. There was no publication bias. Our systematic review and meta-analysis supports the presence of an impaired antioxidant defence system in OSA, possibly the consequence of intermittent hypoxia. Further studies are required to determine the clinical use of PON-1 measurements for risk stratification and monitoring in OSA patients.

Abstract
Photoacoustic (PA) imaging technology, a three-dimensional hybrid imaging modality that integrates the advantage of optical and acoustic imaging, has great application prospects in molecular imaging due to its high imaging depth and resolution. To endow PA imaging with the ability for real-time molecular visualization and precise biomedical diagnosis, numerous activatable molecular PA probes which can specifically alter their PA intensities upon reacting with the targets or biological events of interest have been developed. This review highlights the recent developments of activatable PA probes for precise biomedical applications including molecular detection of the biotargets and imaging of the biological events. First, the generation mechanism of PA signals will be given, followed by a brief introduction to contrast agents used for PA probe design. Then we will particularly summarize the general design principles for the alteration of PA signals and activatable strategies for developing precise PA probes. Furthermore, we will give a detailed discussion of activatable PA probes in molecular detection and biomedical imaging applications in living systems. At last, the current challenges and outlooks of future PA probes will be discussed. We hope that this review will stimulate new ideas to explore the potentials of activatable PA probes for precise biomedical applications in the future.

Abstract
Introduction Obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) syndrome is a highly prevalent problem in children. Unfortunately sleep disorders in children remain largely unreported and underdiagnosed due to various reasons. Overnight in-laboratory polysomnography (PSG) is the gold standard diagnostic method for OSA; however, it has several drawbacks. Hence there is a need for simple alternative diagnostic methods, such as biomarkers. Children with OSA seem to have an inflammatory aspect to its pathophysiology; thus the rationale for evaluating inflammatory biomarkers.
Objective This narrative review aimed to evaluate the existing knowledge regarding inflammatory biomarkers for children with sleep disorders.
Materials and Methods An extensive search of all literature linked to the topic was performed in PubMed, Medline, EBSCOhost, Cochrane library database CENTRAL, and Google Scholar search engine. Keywords used in the search included combinations of the following: inflammation, sleep disorders, children, and biomarkers. Studies in the list of references of relevant literature were also included. A total of 155 articles published in the period from 1997 to 2021 were initially included in this review. Selected articles comprised original research, meta-analysis, and systematic reviews.
Results Studies have mainly centered their investigations on serum inflammatory biomarkers, namely interleukin-6, tumor necrosis factor-α, and C-reactive protein. Very few studies investigated salivary inflammatory biomarkers in children.
Conclusion Evidence suggests that children with sleep disorders have elevated levels of salivary as well as serum inflammatory biomarkers in comparison to normal healthy children. Also increased levels of these biomarkers correlate with disease severity. However, more studies are needed to determine the sensitivity and specificity of salivary inflammatory biomarkers for children with sleep disorders.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION In recent decades, life expectancy has increased considerably. The cardiovascular effects of Obstructive Sleep Apnea (OSA) in the elderly lead to patient disability and high resource consumption. Intermittent nocturnal hypoxia leads to hemodynamic stress and adrenergic activation, which promotes cardiovascular disease. However, chronic intermittent hypoxia may protect elderly patients from cardiovascular events (CVE) due to biological adaptation. AREAS COVERED OSA patients are at increased risk of cardiovascular events. The severity of OSA increases cardiovascular risk, and this association also exists in the elderly. This article reviews the association between OSA, CPAP treatment, and CVE, particularly stroke and coronary heart disease (CHD), in the elderly. MEDLINE and the Cochrane Collaboration databases were searched from inception to July 2021. EXPERT COMMENTARY Although a positive association between OSA and the incidence of cardiovascular disease in the elderly has been established, the role of sleep apnea in certain cardiovascular events remains controversial. Most authors agree that untreated OSA is a risk factor for stroke or worse stroke prognosis. However, the association between OSA and CHD is usually less pronounced than between OSA and stroke, especially in the elderly.

Abstract
Poor sleep may impair systemic mitochondrial bioenergetics, but this relationship has not been examined in humans. This study examined associations of self-reported sleep with peripheral blood mononuclear cell (PBMC) bioenergetics in adults. Forty-three participants completed the Pittsburgh Sleep Quality Index from which sleep indices were calculated. PBMCs were analyzed for bioenergetics using extracellular flux analysis. Sleep efficiency was positively correlated with maximal respiration and spare capacity. Lower sleep efficiency and longer sleep duration were associated with lower Bioenergetic Health Index in age-, sex-, and body mass index-adjusted models. Findings indicate that sleep is related to systemic bioenergetic function in humans.

Circulating Superoxide Dismutase Concentrations in Obstructive Sleep Apnoea (OSA): A Systematic Review and Meta-Analysis. Antioxidants (Basel) 2021; 10:antiox10111764. [PMID: 34829635 PMCID: PMC8614927 DOI: 10.3390/antiox10111764] [Citation(s) in RCA: 4] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.3] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 09/14/2021] [Revised: 10/30/2021] [Accepted: 11/01/2021] [Indexed: 12/28/2022] Open
Abstract
Obstructive Sleep Apnoea (OSA) is characterized by a pro-oxidant state that results from the recurrent hypoxia-reoxygenation cycles. Superoxide dismutase (SOD), a key antioxidant enzyme involved in the detoxification of superoxide radicals, could represent a reliable marker to monitor the antioxidant defences in OSA. In order to capture and critically appraise the available evidence, we performed a systematic review and meta-analysis of studies reporting SOD concentrations in OSA patients and non-OSA controls in the electronic databases Pubmed, Web of Science, Scopus and Google Scholar. In total, 13 studies in 847 OSA patients and 438 non-OSA controls were included in the meta-analysis. Blood SOD concentrations were significantly lower in OSA patients (SMD = 0.87, p < 0.001). By contrast, serum/plasma SOD concentrations were not significantly different between the two groups. Although extreme between-study heterogeneity was observed, the SMD was not substantially modified when individual studies were sequentially removed. In conclusion, we observed that whole blood, but not serum/plasma, SOD concentrations were significantly lower in OSA patients compared with controls. Our meta-analysis suggests an impaired antioxidant defence in OSA that is more robustly assessed in the corpuscular biological matrix and provides useful background information for further studies investigating the association between SOD changes and clinical status in OSA.

Abstract
Oxidative stress induced by nocturnal intermittent hypoxia plays a significant pathophysiological role in obstructive sleep apnea (OSA). Malondialdehyde (MDA), one of the most commonly investigated markers of lipid peroxidation, might assist with the monitoring of oxidative balance in OSA. We conducted a systematic review and meta-analysis to evaluate the differences in circulating MDA concentrations between patients with OSA and non-OSA controls. A systematic search was conducted in the electronic databases Pubmed, Web of Science, Scopus and Google Scholar from inception to December 2020 by using the following terms: “malondialdehyde” or “MDA”; and “Obstructive Sleep Apnea Syndrome”, “OSAS” or “OSA”. We identified 26 studies in 1223 OSA patients and 716 controls. The pooled MDA concentrations were significantly higher in patients with OSA (standardized mean difference (SMD) 1.43 μmol/L, 95% confidence interval (CI) 1.03 to 1.83 μmol/L, p < 0.001). There was extreme heterogeneity between the studies (I2 = 92.3%, p < 0.001). In meta-regression analysis, the SMD was significantly associated with age, the assay type used and publication year. In our meta-analysis, MDA concentrations were significantly higher in OSA patients than in controls. This finding suggests that MDA, which is a marker of lipid peroxidation, is involved in the pathogenesis of OSA and provides insights for future studies investigating its potential clinical use.

Abstract
Background: Obstructive sleep apnea syndrome (OSAS) is an independent risk factor for cardiovascular morbidity and mortality, and it has a detrimental effect on renal function. Obesity is the major risk factor for OSAS, and represents a risk factor for chronic kidney disease. Continuous positive airway pressure (CPAP) is the suggested therapy for moderate-to-severe OSAS. We designed this study to evaluate the effect of CPAP on estimated glomerular filtration rate (e-GFR) in a cohort of obese patients with moderate-to-severe OSAS and normal renal function. Methods: We enrolled 198 obese subjects, divided into two groups (OSAS+ and OSAS-), on the basis of cardiorespiratory monitoring; mild OSAS patients (n = 33) were excluded from the study, thus the analyses were conducted on 165 patients. Comparisons between groups were made by Student t-test or χ2 test as appropriate. Linear regression analyses were used to assess the relationship between baseline e-GFR and different covariates and, in the OSAS+ group, between Δe-GFR and different covariates. A multivariate regression analysis was performed to determinate the independent predictor of the Δe-GFR. Results: OSAS+ subjects showed significantly increased values of systolic blood pressure, HOMA, pulse wave velocity, high-sensitivity C reactive protein and uric acid compared with OSAS- group. OSAS+ group showed significantly lower values of e-GFR and increased values of microalbuminuria. At linear regression analysis e-GFR resulted significantly and inversely related to AHI in the whole study population and in the two groups. After 6 months of CPAP therapy, OSAS+ subjects showed an improvement in respiratory parameters, as well as a significant increase in e-GFR values (104.2 + 19.0 vs. 84.0 + 13.1 ml/min/1.73 m2, P < 0.0001). At multiple regression analysis, Δ apnea/hypopnea index (AHIa) resulted the main independent predictor of Δe-GFR explaining 22% of its variation. Conclusions: Obese OSAS patients show significantly lower values of e-GFR, even if in the normal range, compared with obese non-OSAS subjects. After 6 months of CPAP, e-GFR significantly improved (+20 ml/min/1.73 m2) and ΔAHIa resulted the most important independent predictor of Δe-GFR.

Abstract
Repetitive hypoxia seen in obstructive sleep apnoea syndrome (OSAS) may affect bone metabolism increasing the risk for secondary osteoporosis. This study investigates the association between OSAS in children and secondary osteoporosis. This cross-sectional study included 150 children aged 10–17 years: 86 with OSAS and 64 with no OSAS. OSAS was confirmed by polysomnography. Quantitative ultrasound (QUS) of calcaneum measuring speed of sound (SoS) and broadband ultrasound attenuation (BUA) were collected. Other parameters collected including bone profile, vitamin D levels, physical activity scoring and dietary calcium intake. Majority were male and Malay ethnicity. OSAS children were mostly obese (84%) and 57% had moderate to severe OSAS. Most had lower physical activities scores. Mean (SD) phosphate and Alkaline phosphatase were lower in OSA children compared to controls: PO4, p = 0.039 and ALP, p < 0.001. Using both single and multivariate analysis, children with OSAS had a lower mean SoS value, p < 0.001 and p = 0.004 respectively after adjusting for age, BMI and bone profile. Children with OSAS had lower SoS suggesting risk for secondary osteoporosis. QUS calcaneus is a non-invasive, feasible tool and can be used to screen risk of osteoporosis in children. Further bone mineral density assessment is needed in these groups of children to confirm diagnosis of osteoporosis.

Abstract
Obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) is characterized as recurrent episodes of obstruction in the upper airway during the period of sleep. The condition occurs in approximately 11% and 4% of middle-aged men and middle-aged women, respectively. Polysomnography is a diagnostic procedure that involves the constant observation of oxygen saturation and unsaturation during sleep. Usually, positive airway pressure is considered a benchmark treatment for OSA. This review summarizes the recent developments and emerging evidence from molecular biology-based research studies that show that genetic factors have an influence on OSA. The genetic aspects of OSA that have been identified include heritability and other phenotypic co-factors such as anatomical morphology. It also draws attention to the results of a polymorphic-based study that was conducted to determine the causative single nucleotide mutations associated with obesity and adverse cardiovascular risk in OSA. However, the role of such mutations and their linkage to OSA can not yet be established. Nonetheless, a large body of evidence supports a strong association between inflammatory cytokine polymorphism and obesity in the development of OSA. There are also probable intermediate factors with several gene-gene interactions. Therefore, advanced applications and modern techniques should be applied to facilitate new findings and to minimize the risk of developing OSA.

Abstract
Introduction Obstructive sleep apnea syndrome (OSAS) is characterized by recurrent abnormal respiratory events during sleep and causes oxidative stress which is reported as a major pathogenic mechanism for the development of various cardiovascular disorders. For the diagnosis and management of treatment, disease-related symptoms and the Apnea-Hypopnea Index (AHI) measured from polysomnographic (PSG) recordings are taken together. However, AHI do not sufficiently represent the total hypoxic load, and other indices related to apnea frequency, apnea duration, and desaturation degree should be investigated. Methods In this study, 317 polysomnographic recordings were retrospectively evaluated. Apart from the conventional AHI, apnea and/or hypopnea duration percentage (AHDP) and desaturation area (DesatArea) were calculated using PSG data. Results According to the AHI, 21.8%, 32.8% and 45.4% of cases were grouped as mild, moderate and severe OSAS, respectively. When AHDP was taken into account, 10.4%, 22.1% and 67.5% of the cases were regrouped as mild, moderate or severe OSAS, respectively. When the DesatArea calculation was used, the grouping of cases as mild, moderate or severe OSAS changed in value to 10.7%, 21.1% and 68.1%, respectively. The total group change was found to be 58.4% for both the AHDP and DesatArea formulation. With the AHDP formulation, regrouping was made in 52.2% of the mild OSAS cases and 62.5% of the moderate OSAS cases; by using the DesatArea calculation, 50.7% of mild OSAS cases and 63% of moderate OSAS cases were regrouped. Conclusion Our results show that when another parameters related to abnormal respiratory events are used, the same patients within the same group of disease severity are heterogeneously separated according to severity of hypoxia. It is suggested that grouping the patients based on AHI is insufficient and that using other polysomnographic measurements along with AHI should be considered to represent the severity of the disease.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Despite the increasing number of studies focused on the association between obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) and keratoconus (KC), to date, no comprehensive meta-analysis or systematic review was published. OBJECTIVE The objective of this study was to evaluate the association between OSA and KC. DATA SOURCES Sources of data were PubMed, Scopus, and Web of Science databases. STUDY ELIGIBILITY CRITERIA The criteria for study eligibility were case-control studies and cohort studies reporting data on the association of OSA with KC with risk ratio, odds ratio, or hazard ratio with 95% confidence intervals or sufficient raw data for calculation. STUDY APPRAISAL AND SYNTHESIS METHODS Meta-analysis was conducted with a random-effects model using odds ratio with 95% confidence interval as the effect size. Heterogeneity was evaluated using the Q and I tests. Sensitivity analysis and assessment of publication bias were performed. RESULTS Five studies (four case-control studies and one cohort study) published between 2012 and 2016 and involving 33,844 subjects (16,922 patients with KC, 16,922 controls) were included in this meta-analysis. A significant association between OSA and KC has been shown (pooled odds ratio, 1.841; 95% confidence interval, 1.163 to 2.914; P = .009). A significant heterogeneity was observed (Q = 15.8, I = 74.6%). There was no evidence of significant publication bias (P = .07). The sensitivity analyses indicated the stability of results. LIMITATIONS Heterogeneity across the studies was observed. Data from four hospital-based case-control studies and one large population-based cohort study were combined. Most of the included studies ascertained OSA by the Berlin Questionnaire, which is a screening tool. CONCLUSIONS This meta-analysis provides significant evidence that OSA is associated with KC. Therefore, a proper screening for OSA is warned for KC patients for the prevention of various cardiovascular comorbidities. Further prospective studies are warranted to explore more in-depth the casual relationship between the two conditions.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION Obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) is an oxidative stress disease, which has been considered to be a notable risk and associated with increased cardiovascular morbidity and mortality. Thiol-disulfide homeostasis is as a novel indicator of oxidative stress. OBJECTIVES We aimed to evaluate thiol-disulfide homeostasis in a large patient population with OSA. METHODS A total of 230 with OSA and 40 healthy controls were included in the study. Inclusion criteria for OSA patients are having apnoea-hypopnoea index of ≥5/hour, being more than 18 years of age and having no previous treatment for OSA. Thiol-disulfide analysis was done for the patients and control group. Blood thiol-disulfide homeostasis was analysed using the new automatic method, developed by Erel and Neşelioğlu. RESULTS Among all OSA subjects, 149 (64.8%) were males and the mean ages of the patients were 53.38 ± 10.22. Total thiol, native thiol (SH) and disulfide (SS) levels were significantly lower in OSA group compared to the control group (P < .001, P < .001 and P = .039 respectively). Also, total thiol and native thiol (SH) were significantly different between the groups according to OSA severity (mild-moderate to severe OSA) (P < .001 and P < .001 respectively). Thiol-disulfide redox parameters were correlated with apnoea-hypopnoea index (AHI) scores. CONCLUSION The present prospective study showed that thiol/disulfide homeostasis was unbalanced in OSA patients. Especially, in OSA patients have low level of thiol/disulfide redox parameters when compared to healthy subjects. Evaluating thiol-disulfide homeostasis in OSA may be a contributing aspect to assessment and monitoring of the patient.

Abstract
Lipid metabolism deregulation constitutes the pathogenic basis for the development of atherosclerosis and justifies a high incidence of cardiovascular-related morbidity and mortality. Some data suggest that dyslipidemia may be associated with sleep-disordered breathing, mainly obstructive sleep apnea (OSA), due to alterations in fundamental biochemical processes, such as intermittent hypoxia (IH). The aim of this systematic review was to identify and critically evaluate the current evidence supporting the existence of a possible relationship between OSA and alterations in lipid metabolism. Much evidence shows that, during the fasting state, OSA and IH increase lipid delivery from the adipose tissue to the liver through an up-regulation of the sterol regulatory element-binding protein-1 and stearoyl-CoA desaturase-1, increasing the synthesis of cholesterol esters and triglycerides. In the postprandial state, lipoprotein clearance is delayed due to lower lipoprotein lipase activity, probably secondary to IH-up-regulation of angiopoietin-like protein 4 and decreased activity of the peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor alpha. Moreover, oxidative stress can generate dysfunctional oxidized lipids and reduce the capacity of high-density lipoproteins (HDL) to prevent low-density lipoprotein (LDL) oxidation. In the clinical field, several observational studies and a meta-regression analysis support the existence of a link between OSA and dyslipidemia. Although there is evidence of improved lipid profile after apnea-hypopnea suppression with continuous positive airway pressure (CPAP), the majority of the data come from observational studies. In contrast, randomized controlled trials evaluating the effects of CPAP on lipid metabolism present inconclusive results and two meta-analyses provide contradictory evidence.

Abstract
Chronic intermittent hypoxia (CIH) is the main symptom of obstructive sleep apnea syndrome (OSAS) and causes neural damage and cognitive deficits via neuroinflammation. Toll-like receptors (TLRs), especially TLR2, play an important role in neuroinflammation. However, the mechanisms by which TLR2 participates in CIH-induced cognitive deficits remain unclear. In this study, wild-type (WT) and TLR2 knock out (KO) mice were exposed to CIH for 8 weeks, and their social novelty discrimination, spatial learning and memory were severely compromised. Additionally, seriously damaged neurons and abnormally activated glia were observed in the CA1 and dentate gyrus (DG) areas of the hippocampus. Mechanistically, knocking out the TLR2 gene significantly alleviated these pathological changes and improved the behavioral performance. Together, these findings demonstrate that the TLR2-MyD88 signaling pathway might play an important role in CIH-induced cognitive deficits.

Brain bioenergetics during resting wakefulness are related to neurobehavioral deficits in severe obstructive sleep apnea: a 31P magnetic resonance spectroscopy study. Sleep 2019; 41:5026697.

Abstract
Study Objectives Obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) is a well-established cause of impaired daytime functioning. However, there is a complex inter-individual variability in neurobehavioral performance in OSA patients. We previously reported compromised brain bioenergetics during apneic sleep in severe OSA. In this study, we investigate whether brain bioenergetics during resting wakefulness are related to neurobehavioral performance. Methods Patients attended the sleep laboratory in the evening and were kept awake over-night. Repeated testing on the 10-minute psychomotor vigilance task (PVT, at 9 pm, 11 pm, 1 am, 3 am, 5 am) and 30-minute AusEd driving simulator task (9 pm and 5 am) was performed. Brain bioenergetics (inorganic phosphate/adenosine triphosphate ratio, Pi/ATP) were measured in the temporal lobe during resting wakefulness at 7 am in a 1.5T MRI scanner using phosphorus magnetic resonance spectroscopy (31P MRS). Results Fifteen males with severe OSA (age 47.7 ± 10.4 years, body mass index [BMI] 34 ± 6.6 kg/m2, apnea hypopnea index [AHI] 79.7 ± 21.8/hour) were investigated. A higher Pi/ATP ratio in the brain (lower phosphorylation potential) was correlated with worse PVT and driving simulator performance across the testing period (PVT lapses: r = 0.632, r2 = 0.399, p = 0.012; and AusEd braking reaction time: r = 0.609, p = 0.016). In contrast, the conventional AHI measure of disease severity was not significantly correlated with performance (PVT lapses: r = -0.084, p = 0.8; and AusEd braking reaction time: r = -0.326, p = 0.2). Conclusions Lower phosphorylation potential was associated with worse performance. Compromised brain bioenergetics may in part underlie the neurobehavioral deficits in untreated OSA. We speculate that better brain bioenergetics may explain why some OSA patients are relatively asymptomatic compared with others.

Abstract
The high prevalence of sleep apnea syndrome (SAS) and its direct relationship with an augmented risk of cardiovascular disease (CVD) have raised SAS as a primary public health problem. For this reason, extensive research aiming to understand the interaction between both conditions has been conducted. The advances in non-invasive autonomic nervous system (ANS) monitoring through heart rate variability (HRV) analysis have revealed an increased sympathetic dominance in subjects suffering from SAS when compared with controls. Similarly, HRV analysis of subjects with CVD suggests altered autonomic activity. In this work, we investigated the altered autonomic control in subjects suffering from SAS and CVD simultaneously when compared with SAS patients, as well as the possibility that ANS assessment may be useful for the early stage identification of cardiovascular risk in subjects with SAS. The analysis was performed over 199 subjects from two independent datasets during night-time, and the effects of the physiological response following an apneic episode, sleep stages, and respiration on HRV were taken into account. Results, as measured by HRV, suggest a decreased sympathetic dominance in those subjects suffering from both conditions, as well as in subjects with SAS that will develop CVDs, which was reflected in a significantly reduced sympathovagal balance (p < 0.05). In this way, ANS monitoring could contribute to improve screening and diagnosis, and eventually aid in the phenotyping of patients, as an altered response might have direct implications on cardiovascular health.

Association of continuous positive airway pressure with F2-isoprostanes in adults with obstructive sleep apnea: a meta-analysis. Sleep Breath 2019; 23:1115-1122. [PMID: 30729407 DOI: 10.1007/s11325-019-01795-6] [Citation(s) in RCA: 2] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.4] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 11/13/2018] [Revised: 01/21/2019] [Accepted: 01/26/2019] [Indexed: 12/27/2022]
Abstract
PURPOSE Obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) is associated with increased F2-isoprostanes, a reliable standard biomarker of oxidative stress. Treatment with continuous positive airway pressure (CPAP) is effective for all degrees of OSA. However, it remains unknown whether treatment with CPAP will decrease F2-isoprostanes. A meta-analysis was conducted to determine the effect of CPAP treatment on F2-isoprostanes among patients with OSA. METHODS The PubMed, Embase, Web of Science, and Cochrane library were searched before September, 2018. Eight articles assessing indices of F2-isoprostanes from various body fluids were identified. Pooled standardized mean difference (SMD) and weighted mean difference (WMD) were appropriately calculated through fixed or random effects models after assessing between-study heterogeneity. RESULTS A total of 4 studies with 108 patients were pooled for exhaled breath condensate (EBC) F2-isoprostanes; 3 studies with 93 patients were pooled for serum or plasma F2-isoprostanes; and 3 studies with 102 patients were pooled for urinary F2-isoprostanes. A significant decrease of EBC F2-isoprostanes was observed after CPAP treatment (WMD = 2.652, 95% CI = 0.168 to 5.136, z = 2.09, p = 0.036), as well as serum or plasma F2-isoprostanes and urinary F2-isoprostanes (SMD = 1.072, 95% CI = 0.276 to 1.868, z = 2.64, p = 0.008 and WMD = 85.907, 95% CI = 50.443 to 121.372, z = 4.75, p = 0.000, respectively). CONCLUSIONS This meta-analysis suggested that CPAP therapy was associated with a significant decrease in F2-isoprostanes in patients with OSA.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES Respiratory mechanic instability (RMI) is derived from analysis of paradoxical thoracoabdominal movements during airway obstruction. This study aimed to evaluate RMI parameters in obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) and the correlation between RMI parameters and other parameters in polysomnography. STUDY DESIGN Retrospective review. SETTING A university hospital. METHODS A retrospective chart review was performed, and data from 189 adult patients who underwent an in-laboratory sleep study and were seen in our clinic during the past 8 months. The RMI parameters were measured from thoracoabdominal bands during polysomnography. RESULTS Subjects were divided into 2 groups: control (n = 67, apnea-hypopnea index [AHI] <5) and OSA (n = 122, AHI ≥5). The OSA group was divided into 3 subgroups according to AHI: mild, 5 ≤ AHI < 15; moderate, 15 ≤ AHI < 30; severe, AHI ≥30. As AHI increased, all RMI parameters showed a significant rising pattern and difference between control and subgroups. Arousal index, lowest oxygen saturation, and oxygen desaturation index ≥3% were significantly correlated with all RMI parameters. Based on cutoff values, areas under the curves of the RMI index for predicting mild, moderate, and severe OSA were >0.85. CONCLUSION All RMI parameters were well related to respiratory parameters of polysomnography, such as arousal index, lowest oxygen saturation, and oxygen desaturation index ≥3%. The areas under the curves of all RMI parameters for predicting OSA and subgroups showed significant diagnostic performance. These parameters may be useful to identify OSA cases from control.

Abstract
Today’s rapid growth of elderly populations and aging problems coupled with the prevalence of obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) and other health related issues have affected many aspects of society. This has led to high demands for a more robust healthcare monitoring, diagnosing and treatments facilities. In particular to Sleep Medicine, sleep has a key role to play in both physical and mental health. The quality and duration of sleep have a direct and significant impact on people’s learning, memory, metabolism, weight, safety, mood, cardio-vascular health, diseases, and immune system function. The gold-standard for OSA diagnosis is the overnight sleep monitoring system using polysomnography (PSG). However, despite the quality and reliability of the PSG system, it is not well suited for long-term continuous usage due to limited mobility as well as causing possible irritation, distress, and discomfort to patients during the monitoring process. These limitations have led to stronger demands for non-contact sleep monitoring systems. The aim of this paper is to provide a comprehensive review of the current state of non-contact Doppler radar sleep monitoring technology and provide an outline of current challenges and make recommendations on future research directions to practically realize and commercialize the technology for everyday usage.

Abstract
PURPOSE Obesity and obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) are frequent comorbid conditions. The impact of OSA on objectively measured physical activity (PA), independent of obesity, is not clear. The purpose of this study is to examine the effect of OSA on PA measured via accelerometer. METHODS Overweight-to-obese individuals were recruited and screened for the presence of OSA via portable diagnostic device and divided into an OSA (n = 35) and control group (n = 24). Daytime sleepiness was assessed with the Epworth Sleepiness Scale. Body composition was assessed with dual-energy X-ray absorptiometry. Subjects wore an accelerometer (Actigraph GT3X+, Actigraph Corp., Pensacola, FL) for a minimum of 4 and maximum of 7 days, including at least one weekend day. RESULTS There were no group differences in body mass index (BMI) or daytime sleepiness. Waist and neck circumference were higher in the OSA group. The OSA group was significantly older than the control group. The OSA group had fewer steps, moderate intensity minutes, moderate-to-vigorous minutes, number of PA bouts per day (≥ moderate intensity PA for ≥ 10 consecutive minutes), and total number of PA bouts. When adjusted for age, the PA bout data was no longer significant. CONCLUSION Individuals screened as likely possessing OSA were less physically active than individuals without OSA when measured through objective means. We found no group differences in daytime sleepiness, BMI, or percent fat, suggesting other mechanisms than obesity and sleepiness for this difference.

Abstract
Obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) is characterized by recurrent episodes of partial or complete upper airway obstruction, occurring during sleep, leading to chronic intermittent hypoxia (IH), which harms the cardiovascular system. OSA is associated with both functional and structural vascular alterations that contribute to an increased prevalence of fatal and non-fatal cardiovascular events. OSA is a heterogeneous disease with respect to the severity of hypoxia, the presence of daytime symptoms, obesity, and cardiovascular comorbidities. Various clusters of OSA phenotypes have been described leading to more highly personalized treatment. The aim of this review is to describe the various therapeutic strategies including continuous positive airway pressure (CPAP), oral appliances, surgery, weight loss, and especially pharmacological interventions that have been evaluated to reduce vascular alterations in both OSA patients and preclinical animal models. Conventional therapies, predominantly CPAP, have a limited impact on vascular alterations in the presence of co-morbidities. A better knowledge of pharmacological therapies targeting IH-induced vascular alterations will facilitate the use of combined therapies and is crucial for designing clinical trials in well-defined OSA phenotypes.

Abstract
Obesity and Obstructive sleep Apnea (OSA) seems to bi-directional; obesity itself increases the risk of OSA, but on the other hand, OSA may also predispose the individuals to weight gain, both obesity and OSA share a common immune-metabolic link state which have a synergistic effect on the activation of inflammation, insulin resistance and dyslipidemia, and cardiovascular disease. The Immune-metabolic role of omega-3 fatty acids Docosahexaenoic acid (DHA) and Eicosapentaenoic acid (EPA), which capable of modulating both metabolic and immune process, which may decrease pro-inflammatory cytokines, insulin resistance, and dyslipidemia. To date, no study in humans suffering from OSA and omega-3 fatty acids has been performed. Hence, the objective of this review aimed to discussing the link between immune-metabolic consequences related to intermittent hypoxia and does Omega-3 fatty acids a therapeutic treatment for co-morbidity associated with obstructive sleep apnea.

Abstract
Tanshinone IIA (Tan IIA) may exert significant protective effects against heart oxidative stress damage in obstructive sleep apnoea (OSA) syndrome. Chronic intermittent hypoxia (CIH)-triggered left ventricular dysfunction is used in a rat model to mimic CIH in OSA patients. 48 rats were randomly divided into three groups: normal control (NC) group, CIH group and CIH+Tan IIA group with 16 rats in each group. At the end of experiment (day 21), the blood pressure, Plasma ET-1 and NO content, hemodynamic indexes, heart histology, myocardial apoptosis as well as the expression of eNOS, ET-1, ETA receptor and ETB receptor were compared among different groups. Tan IIA was able to inhibit the increase of blood pressure induced by CIH. Meanwhile, rat cardiac function in Tan IIA group was evaluated by hemodynamic indexes, histopathological examination. Higher ventricular eNOS activity was induced by Tan IIA with a reduction in both ET-1 and ETA receptor expression. However, Tan IIA largely inhibited the decrease of ETB receptor expression. This study demonstrated that Tan IIA has the potential to benefit rat heart against CIH via endothelin system.

Alteration of Inflammatory Mediators in the Upper and Lower Airways under Chronic Intermittent Hypoxia: Preliminary Animal Study. Mediators Inflamm 2017; 2017:4327237. [PMID: 29038619 PMCID: PMC5606044 DOI: 10.1155/2017/4327237] [Citation(s) in RCA: 17] [Impact Index Per Article: 2.4] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 03/14/2017] [Revised: 06/20/2017] [Accepted: 08/02/2017] [Indexed: 11/17/2022] Open
Abstract
Purpose We hypothesized that CIH may affect the upper airway immune system and aimed to verify whether CIH can induce airway inflammation in a murine obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) model. Methods C57BL6 male mice were exposed to intermittent hypoxia (CIH group; 5 ~ 21% FiO2, 120 sec cycles, 12 h/d, n = 6) or room air (Sham group, n = 6) for up to 4 weeks in identical chambers. Nasal and lung tissues and lavage fluid were collected and analyzed by multiplex assay. Lung lavage fluid was also utilized for FACS analysis to determine eosinophil count. Results We determined the protein level of 24 different cytokines, chemokines, and inflammatory mediators. Among various cytokines, levels of IL-1α, IL-1β, IL-4, IL-6, and IL-13 were significantly elevated in nose or lung tissue from the CIH group. In addition, MCP-1 and periostin were elevated in nose and lung tissue and lavage fluid from the CIH group. Conclusions CIH for 4 weeks altered the levels of inflammatory mediators in both the nose and lungs of mouse model. We suggest that the airway immune system may be deteriorated by CIH and allergic inflammation in the upper or lower airway could be worsened by sleep apnea.

Abstract
Three new platinum(II) complexes of lidocaine and phenylcyanamide derivative ligands of formula K[Pt(3,5-(NO2)2pcyd)2(LC)], 1, K[Pt(3,5-(CF3)2pcyd)2(LC)], 2, K[Pt(3,5-Cl2pcyd)2(LC)], 3 (LC: lidocaine, 3,5-(NO2)2pcyd: 3,5-dinitro phenylcyanamide, 3,5-(CF3)2pcyd: 3,5-bis(trifluoromethyl) phenylcyanamide, 3,5-Cl2pcyd: 3,5-dichloro phenylcyanamide) have been synthesized and fully characterized. Cellular uptake, DNA platination and cytotoxicity against a panel of human tumor cell lines were evaluated. The complexes 1-3 revealed a significant in vitro antiproliferative activity against human ovarian carcinoma (A2780), colorectal adenocarcinoma (HT29), breast (MCF-7), liver hepatocellular carcinoma (HepG-2) and lung adenocarcinoma (A549) cancer cell lines. All the complexes are more active than cisplatin and follow the trend 1 > 2 > 3. Mechanistic studies showed that the trend in cytotoxicity of the Pt(II) complexes is mainly consistent with their ability to accumulate into cancer cells and to increase intracellular basal reactive oxygen species levels, which consequently results in the loss of mitochondrial membrane potential and apoptosis induction. The complex 1 caused to approximately 80-fold higher DNA platination level with respect to cisplatin. The complexes 1-3 can considerably stimulate the production of hydrogen peroxide in a time-dependent manner. Also, the complexes 1-3 induced an increase in reactive oxygen species (ROS) production that was superior to that induced by antimycin. The complex 1 had the most effect on ROS production in comparison with other complexes.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES To evaluate the role of adenotonsillar hypertrophy and the outcomes of adenotonsillectomy (AT) on oxidative stress for obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) in children using a new method; thiol/disulfide homeostasis. METHODS The study is consisted of 45 children with OSA and 38 healthy control subjects with similar age and sex. Children 3-12 years of age with OSA, defined as having an apnea/hypopnea index (AHI) of 5 or more in an overnight polysomnography, underwent adenotonsillectomy. OSA was classified as mild (1 ≤ AHI<10), moderate (10 ≤ AHI<20) or severe (AHI≥20). Venous blood samples were taken preoperatively and one month after surgery. The blood levels of thiol/disulfide homeostasis were assessed and compared between patients and control group, before and after adenotonsillectomy. RESULTS Body mass index (BMI), mean age and gender distribution were similar between the study and control groups. Statistically significant higher disulfide levels and ratios were found in the study group compared to the control group; in patients with moderate to severe OSA compared to mild OSA; in the preoperative period compared to postoperative period (p < 0.001, for all). CONCLUSIONS The current study provides preliminary evidence between oxidative stress and OSA in children with adenotonsillar. Adenotonsillectomy for OSA may result in a dramatic improvement in oxidative stress as measured by thiol/disulfide homeostasis.
