Am J Otolaryngol 2024; 45:104361. [PMID: 38729015 DOI: 10.1016/j.amjoto.2024.104361] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 03/27/2024] [Accepted: 04/27/2024] [Indexed: 05/12/2024]
Abstract
OBJECTIVES This study aims to analyze utilization and reimbursement trends in lingual and hyoid surgery for obstructive sleep apnea (OSA). METHODS Annual retrospective data on lingual and hyoid OSA surgeries was obtained from the 2000-2021 Medicare Part B National Summary Datafiles. Current Procedural Terminology (CPT) codes utilized included 21,685 (hyoid myotomy and suspension [HMS]), 41,512 (tongue base suspension [TBS]), 41,530 (radiofrequency ablation of the tongue [RFT]) and 42,870 (lingual tonsillectomy [LT]). RESULTS The number of lingual and hyoid OSA surgeries rose 2777 % from 121 in 2000 to 3481 in 2015, before falling 82.9 % to 594 in 2021. Accordingly, Medicare payments rose 17,899 % from an inflation-adjusted $46,958 in 2000 to $8.45 million in 2015, before falling drastically to $341,011 in 2021. As the number of HMSs (2000: 91; 2015: 84; 2021: 165), TBS (2009: 48; 2015: 31; 2021: 16), and LTs (2000: 121; 2015: 261; 2021: 234) only experienced modest changes in utilization, this change was largely driven by RFT (2009: 340; 2015: 3105; 2021: 179). Average Medicare payments for RFT rose from $1110 in 2009 to $2994 in 2015, before falling drastically to $737 in 2021. CONCLUSION Lingual and hyoid surgery for OSA has overall fallen in utilization among the Medicare population from 2000 to 2021. However, there was a brief spike in usage, peaking in 2015, driven by the adoption (and then quick dismissal) of RFT. The rise and fall in RFT use coincide with the rise and fall in reimbursement.

Abstract
Patients with obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) experience repetitive episodes of upper airway obstruction due to recurrent collapse during sleep. This leads to intermittent hypoxia episodes, which, through complex pathophysiological mechanisms, trigger sympathetic overactivation, endothelial dysfunction, hypercoagulation, and metabolic dysregulation. Consequently, other cardiovascular risk factors such as hypertension, metabolic syndrome, and diabetes are induced. Furthermore, this enhances target organ damage, affecting the heart, arteries, and kidneys, leading to an increased risk of cardiovascular morbidity and mortality. Among the various treatments for OSA, Continuous Positive Airway Pressure (CPAP) has been extensively studied. To date, this treatment has shown mild benefits in reducing blood pressure, particularly noticeable in patients with resistant hypertension. Furthermore, CPAP treatment appears to reduce cardiovascular events, both in primary and secondary prevention, though this benefit is limited to individuals with good compliance (CPAP use ≥4h/night). Future research perspectives in OSA seem to focus on identifying patients in whom the condition significantly influences cardiovascular risk, thus determining those who would benefit the most from treatment in the reduction of cardiovascular risk.

Abstract
AIM Prospective studies suggest that sleep-disordered breathing enhances the risk of diabetes. However, it remains unclear whether diabetes could worsen sleep-disordered breathing. METHODS The participants from Sleep Heart Health Study underwent two polysomnograms at a 5-year interval. The relationship of baseline diabetes to change in the apnoea-hypopnoea index (AHI) was examined based on general linear models, adjusting for demographics, lifestyles, history of hypertension, pulmonary function, length of follow-up and baseline AHI. RESULTS In total, 161 of the 2603 participants were diagnosed with diabetes at the first polysomnograms. Compared with participants without diabetes, those with diabetes had a higher baseline and larger increases in follow-up AHI and obstructive apnoea index (oAI). Diabetes increased 2.52 events per hour (95% confidence interval 0.45-4.59; p = .017) for AHI change and 1.13 events per hour (95% confidence interval 0.04-2.23; p = .042) for oAI change, respectively. In addition, subgroup analysis suggested that the association was consistent across baseline obstructive sleep apnoea severity and body mass index groups. CONCLUSIONS Baseline diabetes was associated with worsening sleep-disordered breathing over 5 years, which mainly increased the change in AHI and oAI.

Abstract
AIMS Pulmonary vein isolation (PVI) is the corner stone of modern rhythm control strategies in patients with atrial fibrillation (AF). Sleep-disordered breathing (SDB) is prevalent in more than 50% of patients undergoing AF ablation, and studies have indicated a greater recurrence rate after PVI in patients with SDB. Herein, we study the effect of catheter-based PVI on AF in a pig model for SDB. METHODS AND RESULTS In 11 sedated spontaneously breathing pigs, obstructive apnoeas were simulated by 75 s of intermittent negative upper airway pressure (INAP) applied by a negative pressure device connected to the endotracheal tube. Intermittent negative upper airway pressures were performed before and after PVI. AF-inducibility and atrial effective refractory periods (aERPs) were determined before and during INAP by programmed atrial stimulation. Pulmonary vein isolation prolonged the aERP by 48 ± 27 ms in the right atrium (RA) (P < 0.0001) and by 40 ± 34 ms in the left atrium (LA) (P = 0.0004). Following PVI, AF-inducibility dropped from 28 ± 26% to 0% (P = 0.0009). Intermittent negative upper airway pressure was associated with a transient aERP-shortening (ΔaERP) in both atria, which was not prevented by PVI (INAP indued ΔaERP after PVI in the RA: -57 ± 34 ms, P = 0.0002; in the LA: -42 ± 24 ms, P < 0.0001). Intermittent negative upper airway pressure was associated with a transient increase in AF-inducibility (from 28 ± 26% to 69 ± 21%; P = 0.0008), which was not attenuated by PVI [INAP-associated AF-inducibility after PVI: 58 ± 33% (P = 0.5)]. CONCLUSION Transient atrial arrhythmogenic changes related to acute obstructive respiratory events are not prevented by electrical isolation of the pulmonary veins, which partially explains the increased AF recurrence in patients with SDB after PVI procedures.

Abstract
Obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) is a common condition that is increasing in prevalence worldwide. Untreated OSA has a negative impact on health-related quality of life and is an independent risk factor for cardiovascular diseases. Despite available data suggesting that cardiovascular risk might differ according to clinical phenotypes and comorbidities, current approaches to OSA treatment usually take a "one size fits all" approach. Identification of cardiovascular vulnerability biomarkers and clinical phenotypes associated with response to positive airway pressure (PAP) therapy could help to redefine the standard treatment paradigm. The new PAP-RES (PAP-RESponsive) algorithm is based on the identification of OSA phenotypes that are likely to impact therapeutic goals and modalities. The paradigm shift is to propose a simplified approach that defines therapeutic goals based on OSA phenotype: from a predominantly "symptomatic phenotype" (individuals with high symptom burden that negatively impacts on daily life and/or accident risk or clinically significant insomnia) to a "vulnerable cardiovascular phenotype" (individuals with comorbidities [serious cardiovascular or respiratory disease or obesity] that have a negative impact on cardiovascular prognosis or a biomarker of hypoxic burden and/or autonomic nervous system dysfunction). Each phenotype requires a different PAP therapy care pathway based on differing health issues and treatment objectives.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Despite major advances in prevention and treatment, cardiovascular diseases - particularly acute myocardial infarction - remain a leading cause of death worldwide and in France. Collecting contemporary data about the characteristics, management and outcomes of patients with acute myocardial infarction in France is important. AIMS The main objectives are to describe baseline characteristics, contemporary management, in-hospital and long-term outcomes of patients with acute myocardial infarction hospitalized in tertiary care centres in France; secondary objectives are to investigate determinants of prognosis (including periodontal disease and sleep-disordered breathing), to identify gaps between evidence-based recommendations and management and to assess medical care costs for the index hospitalization and during the follow-up period. METHODS FRENCHIE (FRENch CoHort of myocardial Infarction Evaluation) is an ongoing prospective multicentre observational study (ClinicalTrials.gov Identifier: NCT04050956) enrolling more than 19,000 patients hospitalized for acute myocardial infarction with onset of symptoms within 48hours in 35 participating centres in France since March 2019. Main exclusion criteria are age<18 years, lack of health coverage and procedure-related myocardial infarction (types 4a and 5). Detailed information was collected prospectively, starting at admission, including demographic data, risk factors, medical history and treatments, initial management, with prehospital care pathways and medication doses, and outcomes until hospital discharge. The follow-up period (up to 20 years for each patient) is ensured by linking with the French national health database (Système national des données de santé), and includes information on death, hospital admissions, major clinical events, healthcare consumption (including drug reimbursement) and total healthcare costs. FRENCHIE is also used as a platform for cohort-nested studies - currently three randomized trials and two observational studies. CONCLUSIONS This nationwide large contemporary cohort with very long-term follow-up will improve knowledge about acute myocardial infarction management and outcomes in France, and provide a useful platform for nested studies and trials.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES Post-stroke fatigue (PSF) is common and often disabling. Sleep-disordered breathing (SDB) is highly prevalent among stroke survivors and can cause fatigue. We explored the relationship between SDB and PSF over time. MATERIALS AND METHODS Ischemic stroke (IS) patients within the BASIC project were offered SDB screening with a well-validated cardiopulmonary sleep apnea test at 0, 3-, 6-, and 12-months post-stroke. The primary exposure was the respiratory event index (REI; sum of apneas plus hypopneas per hour). The primary outcome was PSF, measured by the SF-36 vitality scale. Associations between REI and PSF were evaluated using linear regression including time-by-REI interactions, allowing the effect of REI to vary over time. RESULTS Of the 411 IS patients who completed at least one outcome interview, 44 % were female, 61 % Mexican American (MA), 26 % non-Hispanic white, with a mean age of 64 (SD 10). Averaged across timepoints, REI was not associated with PSF. In a time-varying model, higher REI was associated with greater PSF at 3-months (β = 1.75, CI = 0.08, 3.43), but not at 6- or 12-months. Across timepoints, female sex, depressive symptoms, and comorbidity burden were associated with greater PSF, whereas MA ethnicity was associated with less PSF. CONCLUSIONS Higher REI was associated with modestly greater PSF in the early post-stroke period, but no association was observed at 6 months and beyond. SDB may be a modest modifiable risk factor for early PSF, but its treatment is unlikely to have a substantial impact on long-term PSF. MA ethnicity seems to be protective against PSF.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Nocturnal blood pressure (BP) is associated with cardiovascular disease independently of awake BP. However, nocturnal BP measured using an ambulatory monitoring device has limited reproducibility because it is a single-day measurement. We investigated the association between sleep BP measured on multiple days using a timer-equipped home BP monitor and cardiovascular diseases in a general population. METHODS The study population comprised 5814 community residents. Participants were required to sleep with wrapping cuffs on their upper arm and BP was measured automatically at 0 : 00, 2 : 00, and 4 : 00. Actigraph was used to determine BP measured during sleep. Participants were also measured home morning and evening BP manually using the same device. RESULTS During the 7.3-year mean follow-up period, we observed 117 cases of cardiovascular diseases. The association between sleep BP (per 10 mmHg hazard ratio = 1.31, P < 0.001) and cardiovascular events remained significant (hazard ratio = 1.22, P = 0.036) even after adjusting for office BP and confounding factors, such as sleep-disordered breathing. Individuals with sleep-only hypertension (n = 1047; hazard ratio = 2.23, P = 0.005) had a significant cardiovascular risk. Daytime-only hypertension (n = 264; hazard ratio = 3.57, P = 0.001) and combined sleep and daytime hypertension (n = 1216; hazard ratio = 3.69, P < 0.001) was associated with cardiovascular events to the same extent. Sleep BP dipping was not identified as a significant determinant of cardiovascular events. CONCLUSION Sleep BP measured using a home BP monitor was independently associated with the incidence of cardiovascular disease in a general population.

Abstract
Sleep-disordered breathing (SDB), including obstructive and central sleep apnea, significantly exacerbates heart failure (HF) through adverse cardiovascular mechanisms. This review aims to synthesize existing literature to clarify the relationship between SDB and HF, focusing on the pathophysiological mechanisms, diagnostic challenges, and the effectiveness of treatment modalities like continuous positive airway pressure (CPAP) and adaptive servo-ventilation ASV. We analyzed peer-reviewed articles from 2003 to 2024 sourced from PubMed, EMBASE, Scopus, and Web of Science databases. The prevalence of SDB in HF patients is high, often underdiagnosed, and underappreciated. Management strategies, including CPAP and ASV, have been shown to mitigate symptoms and improve cardiac function. However, despite the availability of effective treatments, significant challenges in screening and diagnosis persist, affecting patient management and outcomes. DB significantly impacts HF prognosis. Enhanced screening strategies and broader utilization of therapeutic interventions like CPAP and ASV are essential to improve the management and outcomes of HF patients with concomitant SDB. Future research should focus on refining diagnostic and treatment protocols to optimize care for HF patients with SDB.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) contributes to the generation, recurrence, and perpetuation of atrial fibrillation, and it is associated with worse outcomes. Little is known about the economic impact of OSA therapy in atrial fibrillation. This retrospective cohort study assessed the impact of positive airway pressure (PAP) therapy adherence on health care resource use and costs in patients with OSA and atrial fibrillation. METHODS AND RESULTS Insurance claims data for ≥1 year before sleep testing and 2 years after device setup were linked with objective PAP therapy use data. PAP adherence was defined from an extension of the US Medicare 90-day definition. Inverse probability of treatment weighting was used to create covariate-balanced PAP adherence groups to mitigate confounding. Of 5867 patients (32% women; mean age, 62.7 years), 41% were adherent, 38% were intermediate, and 21% were nonadherent. Mean±SD number of all-cause emergency department visits (0.61±1.21 versus 0.77±1.55 [P=0.023] versus 0.95±1.90 [P<0.001]), all-cause hospitalizations (0.19±0.69 versus 0.24±0.72 [P=0.002] versus 0.34±1.16 [P<0.001]), and cardiac-related hospitalizations (0.06±0.26 versus 0.09±0.41 [P=0.023] versus 0.10±0.44 [P=0.004]) were significantly lower in adherent versus intermediate and nonadherent patients, as were all-cause inpatient costs ($2200±$8054 versus $3274±$12 065 [P=0.002] versus $4483±$16 499 [P<0.001]). All-cause emergency department costs were significantly lower in adherent and intermediate versus nonadherent patients ($499±$1229 and $563±$1292 versus $691±$1652 [P<0.001 and P=0.002], respectively). CONCLUSIONS These data suggest clinical and economic benefits of PAP therapy in patients with concomitant OSA and atrial fibrillation. This supports the value of diagnosing and managing OSA and highlights the need for strategies to enhance PAP adherence in this population.

Hypertens Res 2024; 47:1391-1400. [PMID: 38485775 DOI: 10.1038/s41440-024-01628-4] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 09/17/2023] [Revised: 02/08/2024] [Accepted: 02/18/2024] [Indexed: 05/08/2024]
Abstract
We investigated blood pressure (BP) variability as assessed by beat-to-beat, reading-to-reading and day-to-day BP variability indices in patients with obstructive sleep apnea-hypopnea syndrome (OSAHS). In 786 hospitalized hypertensives (mean age, 53.2 years; 42.2% women), we performed 10-min beat-to-beat (n = 705), 24-h ambulatory (n = 779), and 7-day home BP (n = 445) measurements and the full overnight polysomnography. Mild, moderate and severe OSAHS were defined as an apnea-hypopnea index of 5-14, 15-29, and ≥ 30 events per hour, respectively. BP variability indices including variability independent of the mean (VIM), average real variability (ARV), and maximum-minimum difference (MMD), were compared across the OSAHS severity groups. In univariate analysis, beat-to-beat systolic VIM and MMD, reading-to-reading asleep systolic and diastolic ARV and MMD increased from patients without OSAHS, to patients with mild, moderate and severe OSAHS. This increasing trend for beat-to-beat systolic VIM and MMD remained statistically significant after adjustment for confounders (P ≤ 0.047). There was significant (P ≤ 0.039) interaction of the presence and severity of OSAHS with age and body mass index in relation to the beat-to-beat systolic VIM and MMD and with the presence of diabetes mellitus in relation to asleep systolic ARV. The association was stronger in younger (age < 50 years) and obese (body mass index ≥ 28 kg/m²) and diabetic patients. None of the day-to-day BP variability indices reached statistical significance (P ≥ 0.16). BP variability, in terms of beat-to-beat systolic VIM and MMD and asleep reading-to-reading asleep systolic ARV, were higher with the more severe OSAHS, especially in younger and obese and diabetic patients.

Mild-to-moderate obstructive sleep apnea and mortality risk in a general population sample: The modifying effect of age and cardiovascular/cerebrovascular comorbidity. J Sleep Res 2024; 33:e13944.

Abstract
About 5.4%-45.7% of the general population has mild-to-moderate obstructive sleep apnea (mmOSA), which is highly comorbid with cardiovascular and/or cerebrovascular diseases (CBVD). We examined the association between mmOSA and all-cause mortality and the modifying effect of age and CBVD. A total of 1681 adults 20-88 years old from the Penn State Adult Cohort (PSAC) (41.9% male) were followed up for 20.1 ± 6.2 years for all-cause mortality. Mild and moderate OSA were defined as an apnea/hypopnea index (AHI) 5-14.9 and 15-29.9 events/hour, respectively. CBVD was defined as a report of a physician diagnosis or treatment for heart disease and/or stroke. Cox proportional hazards regression models were used to estimate all-cause mortality adjusted for confounders. All-cause mortality risk was significantly increased in the mmOSA group in young and middle-aged adults (<60 years) (HR = 1.59, 95%CI 1.08-2.04) but not in older adults (≥60 years) (HR = 1.05, 95%CI 0.80-1.39). A synergistic effect between mmOSA and CBVD was stronger in those <60 years (HR = 3.82, 95%CI 2.25-6.48 in <60 years vs 1.86 95%CI 1.14-3.04 in ≥60 years). There was an additive effect between moderate OSA and hypertension in <60 but not in those ≥60 years. Mild OSA was associated with all-cause mortality only in the presence of CBVD. Mortality risk is increased in young and middle-aged adults with moderate OSA, whereas the mortality risk associated with mild OSA is elevated only, regardless of age, in the presence of comorbid CBVD. AHI cut-offs warranting treatment of mmOSA may need to be adjusted based on age and comorbidities.

Abstract
STUDY OBJECTIVES Obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) is associated with acute nocturnal hemodynamic and neurohormonal abnormalities that may increase the risk of coronary events, especially during the nighttime. This study sought to investigate the day-night pattern of acute ST-segment elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI) onset in patients with OSA and its impact on cardiovascular adverse events. METHODS We prospectively enrolled 397 patients with STEMI, for which the time of onset of chest pain was clearly identified. All participants were categorized into non-OSA (n = 280) and OSA (n = 117) groups. The association between STEMI onset time and major adverse cardiovascular and cerebrovascular events was estimated by Cox proportional hazards regression. RESULTS STEMI onset occurred from midnight to 5:59 am in 33% of patients with OSA, as compared with 15% in non-OSA patients (P < .01). For individuals with OSA, the relative risk of STEMI from midnight to 5:59 am was 2.717 [95% confidence interval (CI) 1.616 - 4.568] compared with non-OSA patients. After a median of 2.89 ± 0.78 years follow-up, symptom onset time was found to be significantly associated with risk of major adverse cardiovascular and cerebrovascular events in patients with OSA, while there was no significant association observed in non-OSA patients. Compared with STEMI presenting during noon to 5:59 pm, the hazard ratios for major adverse cardiovascular and cerebrovascular events in patients with OSA were 4.683 (95% CI 2.024 - 21.409, P = .027) for midnight to 5:59 am and 6.964 (95% CI 1.379 - 35.169, P = .019) for 6 pm to midnight, whereas the hazard ratios for non-OSA patients were 1.053 (95% CI 0.394 - 2.813, P = .917) for midnight to 5:59 am and 0.745 (95% CI 0.278 - 1.995, P = .558) for 6 pm to midnight. CONCLUSIONS Patients with OSA exhibited a peak incidence of STEMI between midnight and 5:59 am, which showed an independent association with cardiovascular adverse events.

Abstract
PURPOSE OF REVIEW This review addresses the evolving intersection of sleep-disordered breathing (SDB) and heart failure, a topic of increasing clinical significance due to the high prevalence of SDB in heart failure patients and its impact on morbidity and mortality. It reflects recent advancements in diagnostic methodologies and therapeutic strategies. It emphasizes the need for heightened awareness among healthcare providers about the complex relationship between SDB and various forms of heart failure. RECENT FINDINGS Recent studies underscore the high incidence of SDB in heart failure patients, varying with the cause of heart failure. Emerging diagnostic tools, including home sleep tests and advanced inpatient screening methods, have improved the early detection and accurate diagnosis of SDB. Novel treatment modalities, like hypoglossal and phrenic nerve stimulation, are promising, especially where conventional therapies are inadequate. The review also discusses the complexities of managing SDB in the context of different heart failure subtypes. SUMMARY Findings from recent literature suggest that improved screening, diagnosis, and innovative treatment of SDB in heart failure patients can reduce morbidity, mortality, and healthcare costs. This review emphasizes the need for personalized treatment approaches tailored to individual patient profiles, highlighting the potential of new technologies and multidisciplinary strategies in clinical practice.

Abstract
Sleep is an essential activity for the survival of mammals. Good sleep quality helps promote the performance of daily functions. In contrast, insufficient sleep reduces the efficiency of daily activities, causes various chronic diseases like Alzheimer's disease, and increases the risk of having accidents. The GABAergic system is the primary inhibitory neurotransmitter system in the central nervous system. It transits the gamma-aminobutyric acid (GABA) neurotransmitter via GABAA and GABAB receptors to counterbalance excitatory neurotransmitters, such as glutamate, noradrenaline, serotonin, acetylcholine, orexin, and dopamine, which release and increase arousal activities during sleep. Several studies emphasized that dysfunction of the GABAergic system is related to insomnia, the most prevalent sleep-related disorder. The GABAergic system comprises the GABA neurotransmitter, GABA receptors, GABA synthesis, and degradation. Many studies have demonstrated that GABA levels correlate with sleep quality, suggesting that modulating the GABAergic system may be a promising therapeutic approach for insomnia. In this article, we highlight the significance of sleep, the classification and pathology of insomnia, and the impact of the GABAergic system changes on sleep. In addition, we also review the medications that target the GABAergic systems for insomnia, including benzodiazepines (BZDs), non-BZDs, barbiturates, GABA supplements, and Chinese herbal medicines.

Abstract
Sleep-disordered breathing (SDB) is prevalent among professional drivers. Although SDB is a known risk factor for truck collisions attributed to microsleep-related behaviors at the wheel (TC-MRBs), the usefulness of overnight pulse oximetry for predicting TC-MRBs is debatable. This retrospective study assessed the association between overnight pulse oximetry parameters, the Epworth Sleepiness Scale (ESS), and TC-MRBs, confirmed by dashcam footage. This study included 108 matched professional truck drivers (TC-MRBs: N = 54; non-TC-MRBs: N = 54), with a mean age and body mass index of 41.9 ± 11.3 years and 23.0 ± 3.7 kg/m2, respectively. Night-time drivers, 4% oxygen desaturation index (ODI), and nadir oxygen saturation (SpO2) were associated with TC-MRBs (odds ratio [95% confidence interval]: 25.63 [5.88-111.77], p < 0.0001; 2.74 [1.02-7.33], p = 0.045; and 3.87 [1.04-14.39], p = 0.04, respectively). The area under the curve of 4% ODI and nadir SpO2 for TC-MRBs were 0.50 and 0.57, respectively. In conclusion, night-time driving, 4% ODI, and nadir SpO2 were significantly associated with TC-MRBs in professional truck drivers. However, the sensitivity of overnight pulse oximetry parameters to predict TC-MRBs in a real-world application was poor. Therefore, combining subjective and objective assessments such as dashcam video footage may be needed to achieve high accuracy for predicting TC-MRBs among professional truck drivers.

Abstract
Obesity condition causes morphological and functional alterations involving the cardiovascular system. These can represent the substrates for different cardiovascular diseases, such as atrial fibrillation, coronary artery disease, sudden cardiac death, and heart failure (HF) with both preserved ejection fraction (EF) and reduced EF. Different pathogenetic mechanisms may help to explain the association between obesity and HF including left ventricular remodelling and epicardial fat accumulation, endothelial dysfunction, and coronary microvascular dysfunction. Multi-imaging modalities are required for appropriate recognition of subclinical systolic dysfunction typically associated with obesity, with echocardiography being the most cost-effective technique. Therapeutic approach in patients with obesity and HF is challenging, particularly regarding patients with preserved EF in which few strategies with high level of evidence are available. Weight loss is of extreme importance in patients with obesity and HF, being a primary therapeutic intervention. Sodium-glucose co-transporter-2 inhibitors have been recently introduced as a novel tool in the management of HF patients. The present review aims at analysing the most recent studies supporting pathogenesis, diagnosis, and management in patients with obesity and HF.

[PMID: 38159653 PMCID: PMC10922426 DOI: 10.1016/j.jad.2023.12.055] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 08/10/2023] [Revised: 11/08/2023] [Accepted: 12/23/2023] [Indexed: 01/03/2024]
Abstract
OBJECTIVE Previous studies have shown that treatment of obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) with positive airway pressure (PAP) therapy in patients with depression may improve depression symptoms and response to antidepressant therapy. We investigated the association between PAP therapy adherence, self-harm events, healthcare resource utilization (HCRU), and costs over 2 years in a national sample of patients with pre-existing depression and newly diagnosed comorbid OSA. METHODS Administrative claims data were linked to objective PAP therapy usage. Inverse probability treatment weighting was used to compare outcomes over 2 years across PAP adherence levels. The predicted numbers of emergency room (ER) visits and hospitalizations by adherence level were assessed using risk-adjusted generalized linear models. RESULTS 37,459 patients were included. Relative to non-adherent patients, consistently adherent patients had fewer self-harm events (0.04 vs 0.05, p < 0.001) after 1 year, and significantly (all p < 0.001) fewer ER visits (0.66 vs 0.86) and all-cause hospitalizations (0.13 vs 0.17), and lower total ($11,847 vs $11,955), inpatient hospitalization ($1634 vs $2274), and ER visit ($760 vs $1006) costs per patient in the second year of PAP therapy. Consistently adherent patients showed lower risk for hospitalizations and ER visits. LIMITATIONS Using observational claims data, we were unable to assess clinical characteristics including sleep, sleepiness, and daytime symptoms, or important social determinants of health. We were limited in assessing care received outside of the included health plans. CONCLUSION Consistent adherence to PAP therapy over 2 years was associated with improved HCRU outcomes for patients with pre-existing depression newly diagnosed with comorbid OSA.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Sleep apnea is more common in patients with heart failure (HF) than in the general population, but little is known about its association with clinical outcomes in various HF phenotypes or how it might modify the effect of HF therapy. OBJECTIVES To examine the prevalence of sleep apnea, its association with outcomes and the effects of dapagliflozin in patients with HF with and without sleep apnea in a pooled analysis of 2 trials comparing dapagliflozin to placebo in HFrEF (DAPA-HF trial) and HFmrEF/HFpEF (DELIVER trial). METHODS A history of sleep apnea was investigator-reported. The primary outcome was a composite of worsening HF or cardiovascular death. RESULTS The prevalence of sleep apnea was 5.7% and 7.8% in patients with HFrEF and HFmrEF/HFpEF, respectively. The primary outcome occurred at a rate of 16.0 in participants with sleep apnea compared to 10.6 per 100 person-years in those without (adjusted HR 1.29 [95%CI, 1.10-1.52]). Compared with placebo, dapagliflozin reduced the risk of the primary endpoint to the same extent in patients with (HR 0.78 [95% CI, 0.59-1.03]) and without sleep apnea (HR 0.79 [0.72-0.87]) [Pinteraction = 0.93]. The beneficial effects of dapagliflozin on other clinical outcomes and symptom burden, physical function, and quality of life were consistent in participants with and without sleep apnea. CONCLUSIONS In DAPA-HF and DELIVER, the true prevalence of sleep apnea was likely underestimated. An investigator-reported history of sleep apnea was associated with higher rates of worsening HF events. The benefits of dapagliflozin on clinical outcomes were consistent in patients with and without sleep apnea. CLINICAL TRIAL REGISTRATION Unique identifiers: NCT01920711 CONDENSED ABSTRACT: In a pooled analysis of the DAPA-HF and DELIVER trials of more than 11,000 patients with heart failure (HF) across the range of ejection fractions, an investigator-reported history of sleep apnea was associated with higher rates of worsening HF events but not mortality. The beneficial effects of dapagliflozin on clinical outcomes were consistent in patients with and without sleep apnea. These findings provide further evidence for dapagliflozin as a new treatment option for patients with heart failure across the range of ejection fractions.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Continuous positive airway pressure (CPAP) has failed to reduce cardiovascular risk in obstructive sleep apnoea (OSA) in randomized trials. CPAP increases angiopoietin-2, a lung distension-responsive endothelial proinflammatory marker associated with increased cardiovascular risk. We investigated whether CPAP has unanticipated proinflammatory effects in patients with OSA and cardiovascular disease. METHODS Patients with OSA (apnoea-hypopnea index [AHI] ≥15 events/h without excessive sleepiness) in the Randomized Intervention with CPAP in Coronary Artery Disease and OSA study were randomized to CPAP or usual care following coronary revascularization. Changes in plasma levels of biomarkers of endothelial (angiopoietin-2, Tie-2, E-selectin, vascular endothelial growth factor [VEGF-A]) and lung epithelial (soluble receptor of advanced glycation end-products [sRAGE]) function from baseline to 12-month follow-up were compared across groups and associations with cardiovascular morbidity and mortality assessed. FINDINGS Patients with OSA (n = 189; 84% men; age 66 ± 8 years, BMI 28 ± 3.5 kg/m2, AHI 41 ± 23 events/h) and 91 patients without OSA participated. Angiopoietin-2 remained elevated whereas VEGF-A declined significantly over 12 months in the CPAP group (n = 91). In contrast, angiopoietin-2 significantly declined whereas VEGF-A remained elevated in the usual care (n = 98) and OSA-free groups. The changes in angiopoietin-2 and VEGF-A were significantly different between CPAP and usual care, whereas Tie-2, sRAGE and E-selectin were similar. Greater 12-month levels of angiopoietin-2 were associated with greater mortality. Greater CPAP levels were associated with worse cardiovascular outcomes. INTERPRETATION Greater CPAP levels increase proinflammatory, lung distension-responsive angiopoietin-2 and reduce cardioprotective angiogenic factor VEGF-A compared to usual care, which may counteract the expected cardiovascular benefits of treating OSA.

Abstract
Sleep apnea (SA) is associated with risk of cardiovascular disease, cognitive decline, and accidents due to sleepiness, yet the majority (over 80%) of patients remain undiagnosed. Inertial measurement units (IMUs) are built into modern wearable devices and are capable of long-term continuous measurement with low power consumption. We examined if SA can be detected by an IMU embedded in a wristwatch device. In 122 adults who underwent polysomnography (PSG) examinations, triaxial acceleration and triaxial gyro signals from the IMU were recorded during the PSG. Subjects were divided into a training group and a test groups (both n = 61). In the training group, an algorithm was developed to extract signals in the respiratory frequency band (0.13-0.70 Hz) and detect respiratory events as transient (10-90 s) decreases in amplitude. The respiratory event frequency estimated by the algorithm correlated with the apnea-hypopnea index (AHI) of the PSG with r = 0.84 in the test group. With the cutoff values determined in the training group, moderate-to-severe SA (AHI ≥ 15) was identified with 85% accuracy and severe SA (AHI ≥ 30) with 89% accuracy in the test group. SA can be quantitatively detected by the IMU embedded in wristwatch wearable devices in adults with suspected SA.

Abstract
Sleep-disordered breathing, including obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) and central sleep apnea (CSA), is common in severe heart failure (HF) patients. There is limited data on the effect of left ventricular assist devices (LVAD) on sleep apnea. We performed a retrospective review of 350 durable LVAD patients and found 5 with a history of pre- and post-LVAD sleep studies. All five patients had OSA, and three had concomitant CSA. We observed reduced apnea-hypopnea index following LVAD placement. This was due to a near abolishment of CSA in three mixed sleep apnea patients-as seen by a central apnea index improvement from an average of 25.9 ± 13.1 to 1.4 ± 2.5 events per hour (p = 0.063). LVAD placement was associated with an increase in thermodilution cardiac output from 2.7 ± 0.6 to 4.1 ± 1.1 L/min (p = 0.014). These findings support chemoreception physiology seen in patients with poor circulation and the effect of restoring this circulation with LVAD support.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES Chemosensitivity is an essential part of the pathophysiological mechanisms of obstructive sleep apnea (OSA). Not only does OSA have a certain relationship with the comorbidity of cardiovascular disease (CVD) but also chemosensitivity plays a crucial role in the development of CVD. This study aims to investigate the potential interaction between chemosensitivity and the development of CVD in OSA. METHODS A total of 169 participants with suspected OSA were included. Data were gathered on the parameters of polysomnography and baseline clinical features. Peripheral chemosensitivity was evaluated by employing the rebreathing test. The lifetime CVD risk was computed using the China-PAR (Prediction for atherosclerotic CVD Risk in China) risk equation. RESULTS After controlling for covariates, participants with chemosensitivity levels in the second and fifth quantiles tended to hold an increased proportion of high lifetime CVD risk (OR 10.90, 95%CI [2.81-42.28]; OR 6.78, 95%CI [1.70-27.05], respectively). The diagnosis of OSA would significantly increase the 10-year and lifetime CVD risks in participants with low chemosensitivity, while no such differences were found in participants with high chemosensitivity. CONCLUSION Higher lifetime CVD risk was associated with participants who had greater peripheral chemosensitivity. In terms of the CVD outcomes, adult patients with a relatively low level of chemosensitivity may be primarily related to their diagnosis of OSA, whereas adult patients with a relatively high level of chemosensitivity may be more strongly associated with their elevated levels of chemosensitivity rather than OSA.

Abstract
Sleep disordered breathing (SDB), mostly constituting of obstructive and central sleep apnea (OSA and CSA, respectively), is highly prevalent in the general population, and even more among patients with cardiovascular disease, heart failure (HF) and valvular heart disease, such as mitral regurgitation (MR). The coexistence of HF, MR and SDB is associated with worse cardiovascular outcomes and increased morbidity and mortality. Pulmonary congestion, as a result of MR, can exaggerate and worsen the clinical status and symptoms of SDB, while OSA and CSA, through various mechanisms that impair left ventricular dynamics, can promote left ventricular remodelling, mitral annulus dilatation and consequently MR. Regarding treatment, positive airway pressure devices used to ameliorate symptoms in SDB also seem to result in a reduction of MR severity, MR jet fraction and an improvement of left ventricular ejection fraction. However, surgical and transcatheter interventions for MR, and especially transcatheter edge to edge mitral valve repair (TEER), seem to also have a positive effect on SDB, by reducing OSA and CSA-related severity indexes and improving symptom control. The purpose of this review is to provide a comprehensive analysis of the common pathophysiology between SDB and MR, as well as to discuss the available evidence regarding the effect of SDB treatment on MR and the effect of mitral valve surgery or transcatheter repair on both OSA and CSA.

Abstract
Sleep apnea is a serious comorbid condition affecting patients with heart failure. Present in 50% to 75% of heart failure patients, it is often underrecognized, underdiagnosed, and undertreated. Patients with sleep apnea and heart failure are at increased risk of adverse cardiovascular events and sudden death. Treatment of sleep apnea has shown mixed results in reduction of adverse outcomes by sleep apnea type and intervention strategy. Evolving home-based technologies and device therapies present an exciting frontier for patients with sleep apnea and heart failure and an opportunity to improve outcomes. This article reviews novel approaches to sleep apnea in heart failure.

Abstract
STUDY OBJECTIVES To assess the impact of transvenous phrenic nerve stimulation (TPNS) on non-rapid eye movement sleep microstructure quantified by cyclic alternating pattern (CAP) in individuals with central sleep apnea (CSA). METHODS We analyzed baseline and 6-month follow-up overnight polysomnograms (PSG) in 134 CSA patients enrolled in the remedē System Pivotal Trial implanted with TPNS randomized (1:1) to neurostimulation (treatment group) or no stimulation (control group). Differences in CAP rate, A1 index, and A2+A3 index between study arms at follow-up were assessed using Analysis of Covariance adjusted for baseline values. RESULTS On follow-up PSG, the treatment group showed a decrease in the frequency of A2+A3 phases compared to controls (-5.86 ± 11.82 vs. 0.67 ± 15.25, p = 0.006), while the frequency of A1 phases increased more in the treatment group (2.57 ± 11.67 vs. -2.47 ± 10.60, p = 0.011). The change in CAP rate at follow-up was comparable between study arms. CONCLUSIONS TPNS treatment for central sleep apnea may affect sleep microstructure. Brief phases of rapid cortical activity appear to be replaced by short phases of slower cortical activity, which may promote sleep continuity. Further investigations are warranted to elucidate the mechanisms underlying the effect of TPNS on CAP.

Abstract
Background The interaction between smoking and sleep seems appears to be bidirectional, but few studies evaluated the impact of smoking and its cessation on objective sleep parameters. In this context, this new study aimed to assess the impact of smoking and its cessation on sleep architecture and on ventilatory sleep parameters, particularly the presence of sleep apnea syndrome (apnea-hypopnea index (AHI)≥15). Methods: Patients hospitalized for polysomnographic sleep exploration were compared according to their smoking status: active smokers (AS), former smokers (FS), non-smokers (NoNi). Psychiatric and non-psychiatric co-morbidities and treatment or substance use were taken into account in the analyses. Results A total of 170 participants were included (N = 37 FS, 39 AS, 86 NoNi). A significant decrease in the mean nocturnal O2 saturation was observed for FS and AS compared to NoNi. No differences were found regarding AHI. Regarding sleep architecture, we observed a significant decrease in the slow wave sleep duration for AS compared to NoNi, and interestingly not between FS and NoNi. Conclusion This study suggests that current smokers suffer from alterations in both sleep architecture and ventilatory parameters, the later appears to persist even after smoking cessation.

Weight loss induced alleviation of sleep-disordered breathing is associated with improvement of non-alcoholic fatty liver disease. Sleep Med 2023; 112:159-164. [PMID: 37866211 DOI: 10.1016/j.sleep.2023.10.018] [Citation(s) in RCA: 1] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 05/28/2023] [Revised: 10/04/2023] [Accepted: 10/16/2023] [Indexed: 10/24/2023]
Abstract
INTRODUCTION Sleep-disordered breathing (SDB) and non-alcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD) are both common comorbidities in obese patients. Structured weight loss programs are effective and can reduce the incidence and severity of obesity-related comorbidities. The objective of the present analysis is to test whether weight loss induced alleviation of SDB is a predictor for improvement of NAFLD. METHODS Obese participants underwent a standardized non-surgical 3 months weight reduction program (800 kilocalories per day with low carbohydrate and fat content). Abdominal sonography for NAFLD (grade 0 to 3) and monitoring for SDB (defined as apnea-hypopnea index [AHI] ≥ 15/h) were performed at baseline and after 3 months. Alleviation of SDB was defined as a shift from AHI≥ 15/h to <15/h. RESULTS 48 patients (48% female, age 42 ± 12 years, body-mass index 40.3 ± 8.1 kg/m2, AHI 14 ± 17/h, 85% NAFLD grade ≥1) participated in the weight loss program. In contrast to the no SDB group, in patients with SDB weight loss of 27.1 ±0 .9 kg (8.4 ± 2.8 kg/m2) after three months was paralleled by a reduction in AHI (-22 ± 17/h), prevalence of SDB (from 31% to 13%), and oxidized low-density lipoprotein (-13 ± 11 U/l). In individuals with preexisting SDB NAFLD grade improved more (2 versus 1, p<0.001) and was at a lower degree at 3 months than in those without SDB (0 versus 1, p = 0.015). In multivariable analysis models, SDB at baseline was associated with improvement of NAFLD grade (B 0.908; 95% CI 0.125, 1.691; p = 0.024), independently of age, sex, and BMI (each p>0.05, respectively). Decreasing BMI (B 0.16 [95%-CI 0.08; 0.23], p<0.001) and alleviation of SDB (B 0.90 [95%-CI 0.21; 1.58], p = 0.012) were independently associated with improvement of NAFLD grade. CONCLUSION Preexisting SDB and weight loss induced alleviation of SDB are predictors for improvement in NAFLD grade, independent of the extent of weight loss. SDB may contribute to the pathogenesis of NAFLD via SDB-induced oxidative stress and inflammation, but the causal mechanism remains unclear.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Hypoxic burden (HB) has emerged as a strong predictor of cardiovascular risk in obstructive sleep apnoea (OSA). We aimed to assess the potential of HB to predict the cardiovascular benefit of treating OSA with continuous positive airway pressure (CPAP). METHODS This was a post hoc analysis of the ISAACC trial (ClinicalTrials.gov: NCT01335087) including non-sleepy patients with acute coronary syndrome (ACS) diagnosed with OSA (apnoea-hypopnoea index ≥15 events·h-1) by respiratory polygraphy. Patients were randomised to CPAP or usual care and followed for a minimum of 1 year. HB was calculated as the total area under all automatically identified desaturations divided by total sleep time. Patients were categorised as having high or low baseline HB according to the median value (73.1%min·h-1). Multivariable Cox regression models were used to assess whether the effect of CPAP on the incidence of cardiovascular outcomes was dependent on the baseline HB level. RESULTS The population (362 patients assigned to CPAP and 365 patients assigned to usual care) was middle-aged (mean age 59.7 years), overweight/obese and mostly male (84.5%). A significant interaction was found between the treatment arm and the HB categories. In the high HB group, CPAP treatment was associated with a significant reduction in the incidence of cardiovascular events (HR 0.57, 95% CI 0.34-0.96). In the low HB group, CPAP-treated patients exhibited a trend toward a higher risk of cardiovascular outcomes than those receiving usual care (HR 1.33, 95% CI 0.79-2.25). The differential effect of the treatment depending on the baseline HB level followed a dose-response relationship. CONCLUSION In non-sleepy ACS patients with OSA, high HB levels were associated with a long-term protective effect of CPAP on cardiovascular prognosis.

Abstract
Patients with obstructive sleep apnea exhibit an increased risk of developing gonadal disorders. Because a notable number of people worldwide have sleep respiratory and reproductive disorders, it is essential to recognize the association between local upper airway dysfunction and its gonadal effects. Repeated breathing pauses cause sleep fragmentation, disorganization of sleep cycles and stages, sympathetic activation, intermittent hypoxemia and systemic inflammation. Nocturnal intermittent hypoxemia has a direct central effect on neurotransmitters, with disturbances in the normal production of hypothalamic-pituitary hormones. Awakenings and micro-awakenings at the end of apneic episodes produce a central stress responsible for hormonal changes and subsequent endocrine imbalances. The aim of the present study was to investigate the impact of obstructive sleep apnea syndrome (OSAS) on gonadal hormonal homeostasis and its consequences. Recognizing and understanding how local upper airway dysfunction causes gonadal imbalance may facilitate better care for patients with OSAS. Although there may be a direct relationship between sleep-disordered breathing and gonadal function mediated by hormones via the hypothalamic-pituitary-gonadal axis, to date, current therapies have not been effective.

Abstract
AIMS Heart failure (HF) and sleep-disordered breathing (SDB) frequently coexist. We aimed to compare the prognostic value of different nocturnal hypoxic burden metrics in hospitalized HF patients. METHODS AND RESULTS HF patients underwent polygraphy screening for SDB in this prospective cohort. Hypoxic burden metrics assessed using pulse oximetry included time < 90% oxygen saturation (T90), proportion of total recording time < 90% oxygen saturation (TRT90), oxygen desaturation index (ODI), and mean oxygen saturation (meanSO2 ). The prespecified endpoints were the composite of cardiovascular death or admission for worsening HF. This study included 764 hospitalized HF patients, 16.5% and 36.6% of whom had obstructive and central sleep apnoea, respectively. With a median follow-up time of 2.2 years, endpoint events occurred in 410 (53.7%) patients. In univariate and multivariate analyses, T90, TRT90, and meanSO2 were substantially associated with the composite outcome, whereas ODI was not. After multivariate Cox model adjustment, patients with 5.0 ≤ T90 ≤ 52.0 min [hazard ratio (HR) 1.32, 95% confidence interval (CI): 1.02-1.71, P = 0.034] or T90 > 52.0 min (HR 1.56, 95% CI: 1.21-2.02, P = 0.001) had a greater risk of the composite outcome than those with T90 < 5.0 min. The TRT90 and T90 results were similar. Compared with meanSO2 > 95%, meanSO2 < 93% (HR 1.47, 95% CI: 1.16-1.88, P = 0.002) was correlated with adverse outcomes. CONCLUSIONS The hypoxic burden metrics T90, TRT90, and meanSO2 , but not ODI, were independent predictors of cardiovascular death or readmission for worsening HF. Indicators of duration and severity, not just the frequency of nocturnal hypoxaemia, should be valued and considered for intervention to improve outcomes in HF patients.

[PMID: 37794711 PMCID: PMC10682887 DOI: 10.1002/ehf2.14556] [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: 02/13/2023] [Revised: 08/07/2023] [Accepted: 09/20/2023] [Indexed: 10/06/2023] Open
Abstract
AIMS This study aimed to assess the effectiveness of adaptive servo-ventilation (ASV) for lowering hypoxaemic burden components in heart failure with reduced ejection fraction (HFrEF) patients. METHODS AND RESULTS Fifty-six stable HFrEF patients with left ventricular ejection fraction ≤ 40 were randomized to receive either ASV (n = 27; 25 males) or optimal medical management or optimal medical management alone (n = 29; 26 males). Patients underwent overnight polysomnography at baseline and a 12 week follow-up visit. We quantified hypoxaemic as time spent at <90% oxygen saturation (T90) decomposed into desaturation-related components (T90desaturation ) and non-specific drifts (T90non-specific ). In the ASV arm, T90 significantly shortened by nearly 60% from 50.1 ± 95.8 min at baseline to 20.5 ± 33.0 min at follow-up compared with 59.6 ± 88 and 65.4 ± 89.6 min in the control arm (P = 0.009). ASV reduced the apnoea-related component (T90desaturation ) from 37.7 ± 54.5 to 2.1 ± 7.3 min vs. 37.7 ± 54.5 and 40.4 ± 66.4 min in the control arm (P = 0.008). A significant non-specific T90 component of 19.6 ± 31.8 min persisted during ASV. In adjusted multivariable regression, T90desaturation was significantly associated with the ratio of the forced expiratory volume in the first second to the forced vital capacity of the lungs (β = 0.336, 95% confidence interval 0.080 to 0.593; P = 0.011) and T90non-specific with left ventricular ejection fraction (β = -0.345, 95% confidence interval -0.616 to -0.073; P = 0.014). CONCLUSIONS ASV effectively suppresses the sleep apnoea-related component of hypoxaemic burden in HFrEF patients. A significant hypoxaemic burden not directly attributable to sleep apnoea but related to the severity of heart failure remains and may adversely affect cardiovascular long-term outcomes.

Abstract
Heart failure with preserved ejection fraction (HFpEF) is emerging as a widespread disease with global socioeconomic impact. Patients with HFpEF show a dramatically increased morbidity and mortality, and, unfortunately, specific treatment options are limited. This is due to the various etiologies that promote HFpEF development. Indeed, cluster analyses with common HFpEF comorbidities revealed the existence of several HFpEF phenotypes. One especially frequent, yet underappreciated, comorbidity is sleep-disordered breathing (SDB), which is closely intertwined with the development and progression of the "obese HFpEF phenotype". The following review article aims to provide an overview of the common HFpEF etiologies and phenotypes, especially in the context of SDB. As general HFpEF therapies are often not successful, patient- and phenotype-individualized therapeutic strategies are warranted. Therefore, for the "obese HFpEF phenotype", a better understanding of the mechanistic parallels between both HFpEF and SDB is required, which may help to identify potential phenotype-individualized therapeutic strategies. Novel technologies like single-cell transcriptomics or CRISPR-Cas9 gene editing further broaden the groundwork for deeper insights into pathomechanisms and precision medicine.

Causality Investigation between Gut Microbiota, Derived Metabolites, and Obstructive Sleep Apnea: A Bidirectional Mendelian Randomization Study. Nutrients 2023; 15:4544. [PMID: 37960197 PMCID: PMC10648878 DOI: 10.3390/nu15214544] [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: 08/28/2023] [Revised: 10/16/2023] [Accepted: 10/24/2023] [Indexed: 11/15/2023] Open
Abstract
Various studies have highlighted the important associations between obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) and gut microbiota and related metabolites. Nevertheless, the establishment of causal relationships between these associations remains to be determined. Multiple mendelian randomization (MR) analyses were performed to genetically predict the causative impact of 196 gut microbiota and 83 metabolites on OSA. Two-sample MR was used to assess the potential association, and causality was evaluated using inverse variance weighted (IVW), MR-Egger, and weighted median (WM) methods. Multivariable MR (MVMR) was employed to ascertain the causal independence between gut microbiota and the metabolites linked to OSA. Additionally, Cochran's Q test, the MR Egger intercept test and the MR Steiger test were used for the sensitivity analyses. The analysis of the 196 gut microbiota revealed that genus_Ruminococcaceae (UCG009) (PIVW = 0.010) and genus_Subdoligranulum (PIVW = 0.041) were associated with an increased risk of OSA onset. Conversely, Family_Ruminococcaceae (PIVW = 0.030), genus_Coprococcus2 (PWM = 0.025), genus_Eggerthella (PIVW = 0.011), and genus_Eubacterium (xylanophilum_group) (PIVW = 0.001) were negatively related to the risk of OSA. Among the 83 metabolites evaluated, 3-dehydrocarnitine, epiandrosterone sulfate, and leucine were determined to be potential independent risk factors associated with OSA. Moreover, the reverse MR analysis demonstrated a suggestive association between OSA exposure and six microbiota taxa. This study offers compelling evidence regarding the potential beneficial or detrimental causative impact of the gut microbiota and its associated metabolites on OSA risk, thereby providing new insights into the mechanisms of gut microbiome-mediated OSA development.

[PMID: 37969444 PMCID: PMC10643064 DOI: 10.12998/wjcc.v11.i30.7309] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 07/28/2023] [Revised: 09/21/2023] [Accepted: 09/28/2023] [Indexed: 10/25/2023] Open
Abstract
BACKGROUND Epidemiological studies have revealed an association between obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) and hypertension in the general population, while the association in military personnel was rarely investigated. AIM To examine the association between high risk for OSA and hypertension by phenotypes in military young adults. METHODS A total of 746 military personnel, aged 27.9 years, were included in the cardiorespiratory fitness and health in armed forces (CHIEF)-sleep study in Taiwan in 2020. Antihypertensive medications were not used by the subjects. High risk for OSA was assessed using the Berlin Questionnaire. Hypertension was defined using the 7th Report of the Joint National Committee on Prevention, Detection, Evaluation, and Treatment of High Blood Pressure (JNC 7) and the 2017 American College of Cardiology (ACC)/American Heart Association (AHA) guidelines. The cutoff levels of systolic and diastolic blood pressure (SBP and DBP) for the 2017 ACC/AHA- and JNC 7-based guidelines were 130/140 mmHg and 80/90 mmHg, respectively. Hypertension phenotypes included isolated systolic and diastolic hypertension (ISH, high SBP only and IDH, high DBP only) and combined hypertension (both high SBP and DBP). Multivariable logistic regression analysis with adjustment for demographics, lifestyle and metabolic biomarkers. RESULTS The prevalence of high risk for OSA, JNC 7-based hypertension and 2017 ACC/AHA-based hypertension were 8.0%, 5.2% and 22.0%, respectively. Those with a high risk for OSA had a higher probability of JNC 7-based overall and combined hypertension (odds ratios (ORs) and 95% confidence intervals: 2.82 (1.07-7.42) and 7.54 (1.10-51.54), although the probabilities of ISH and IDH were unaffected by a high risk for OSA (ORs: 1.96 and 2.35, respectively, both P > 0.05). In contrast, no associations for any hypertension phenotypes were found according to the 2017 ACC/AHA criteria. CONCLUSION A high risk for OSA was associated with severe hypertension and combined hypertension among Asian military young adults.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Patients with heart failure with reduced ejection fraction (HFrEF) and central sleep apnea (CSA) are at a very high risk of fatal outcomes. OBJECTIVE To test whether the circulating miRNome provides additional information for risk stratification on top of clinical predictors in patients with HFrEF and CSA. METHODS The study included patients with HFrEF and CSA from the SERVE-HF trial. A three-step protocol was applied: microRNA (miRNA) screening (n = 20), technical validation (n = 60), and biological validation (n = 587). The primary outcome was either death from any cause, lifesaving cardiovascular intervention, or unplanned hospitalization for worsening of heart failure, whatever occurred first. MiRNA quantification was performed in plasma samples using miRNA sequencing and RT-qPCR. RESULTS Circulating miR-133a-3p levels were inversely associated with the primary study outcome. Nonetheless, miR-133a-3p did not improve a previously established clinical prognostic model in terms of discrimination or reclassification. A customized regression tree model constructed using the Classification and Regression Tree (CART) algorithm identified eight patient subphenotypes with specific risk patterns based on clinical and molecular characteristics. MiR-133a-3p entered the regression tree defining the group at the lowest risk; patients with log(NT-proBNP) ≤ 6 pg/mL (miR-133a-3p levels above 1.5 arbitrary units). The overall predictive capacity of suffering the event was highly stable over the follow-up (from 0.735 to 0.767). CONCLUSIONS The combination of clinical information, circulating miRNAs, and decision tree learning allows the identification of specific risk subphenotypes in patients with HFrEF and CSA.

MEDICINA (KAUNAS, LITHUANIA) 2023; 59:1759. [PMID: 37893477 PMCID: PMC10608258 DOI: 10.3390/medicina59101759] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 08/30/2023] [Revised: 09/25/2023] [Accepted: 09/28/2023] [Indexed: 10/29/2023]
Abstract
Background and Objectives: Evidence shows that COPD-OSA overlap syndrome (OS) is more frequently accompanied by cardiovascular disease (CVD) in comparison to either disease alone. The aim of the study was to explore whether patients with OS have a higher burden of subclinical myocardial injury and wall stress compared with OSA patients. Materials and Methods: Consecutive patients, without established CVD, underwent polysomnography and pulmonary function testing, due to suspected sleep-disordered breathing. An equal number of patients with OS (n = 53, with an apnea hypopnea index (AHI) > 5/h and FEV1/FVC < 0.7) and patients with OSA (n = 53, AHI > 5/h and FEV1/FVC > 0.7) were included in the study. The detection of asymptomatic myocardial injury and wall stress was performed via the assessment of serum high-sensitivity cardiac troponin T (hs-cTnT) and N-terminal pro-B-type natriuretic peptide (NT-proBNP), respectively. Results: OS patients were older (p < 0.001) and had worse hypoxemic parameters, namely average oxyhemoglobin saturation (SpO2) (p = 0.002) and time spent with SpO2 < 90% (p = 0.003) during sleep as well as daytime pO2 (p < 0.001), than patients with OSA. No difference was observed between groups in terms of Epworth Sleepiness Scale (p = 0.432) and AHI (p = 0.587). Both levels of hs-cTnT (14.2 (9.1-20.2) vs. 6.5 (5.6-8.7) pg/mL, p < 0.001) and NT-proBNP (93.1 (37.9-182.5) vs. 19.2 (8.3-35.4) pg/mL, p < 0.001) were increased in OS compared to OSA patients. Upon multivariate linear regression analysis, levels of NT-proBNP and hs-cTnT correlated with age and average SpO2 during sleep. Conclusions: Our study demonstrated higher levels of hs-cTnT and NT-proBNP in OS patients, indicating an increased probability of subclinical myocardial injury and wall stress, compared with OSA individuals.

Lipids Health Dis 2023; 22:159. [PMID: 37752495 PMCID: PMC10521560 DOI: 10.1186/s12944-023-01919-8] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 07/06/2023] [Accepted: 09/09/2023] [Indexed: 09/28/2023] Open
Abstract
BACKGROUND Currently, there is limited and controversial clinical research on the correlation between sleep-disordered breathing (SDB) and dyslipidemia. This discrepancy in findings may be because studies that primarily focused on hospital-based populations may not be applicable to community-based populations. Therefore, the primary objective of this research endeavor is to scrutinize the correlation between nocturnal hypoxemia and blood lipid concentrations among adult individuals residing in the community who exhibit symptoms of SDB. Additionally, this study aimed to identify the nocturnal hypoxia parameters having the strongest correlation with this relationship. METHODS This cross-sectional study collected data from The Guangdong Sleep Health Study, which included 3829 participants. Type IV sleep monitoring was employed to measure hypoxemia parameters, and lipoproteins were evaluated using fasting blood samples. To understand the association between dyslipidemia and hypoxemia parameters, a multivariable logistic regression model was used. Subgroup analyses were conducted to stratify data according to age, sex, waist circumference, and chronic diseases. RESULTS The age of the individuals involved in the study spanned from 20 to 90 years. The average age of the participants was 56.15 ± 13.11 years. Of the total sample size, 55.7% were male. In the fully adjusted model, the meanSpO2 was negatively associated with hyperlipidemia (0.9303 [95% confidence interval 0.8719, 0.9925]). Upon conducting a nonlinearity test, the relationship between the meanSpO2 and hyperlipidemia was nonlinear. The inflection points were determined to be 95. When meanSpO2 ≥ 95%, a difference of 1 in the meanSpO2 corresponded to a 0.07 difference in the risk of hyperlipidemia. CONCLUSIONS This study revealed that higher meanSpO2 is significantly and negatively associated with hyperlipidemia in adult community residents with SDB, particularly when the meanSpO2 exceeds 95. This finding emphasizes the importance of close monitoring for dyslipidemia, which is considered an early indicator of atherosclerosis in patients with SDB who experience nocturnal hypoxia.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION Alzheimer's disease (AD) often presents with sleep disorders, which are also an important risk factor for AD, affecting cognitive function to a certain extent. This study aimed to reveal the current global status, present hotspots, and discuss emerging trends of sleep and AD using a bibliometric approach. METHODS Research and review articles related to sleep and AD from 2003 to 2022 were extracted from the Web of Science Core Collection. VOSviewer 1.6.18.0, Scimago Graphica, and CiteSpace 6.2.R2 were used to map the productive and highly cited countries, institutions, journals, authors, references, and keywords in the field. RESULTS Overall, 4,008 publications were included in this bibliometric analysis. The number of publications and citations showed an increasing trend over the past two decades. The USA and China had the largest and second largest, respectively, number of publications and citations and cooperated with other countries more closely. Ancoli-Israel Sonia published the most papers, and Holtzman David M was co-cited most frequently. The most productive journal was Journal of Alzheimer's Disease, and Neurology was the most frequently cited journal. The risk factors, β-amyloid (Aβ), tau, neuroinflammation, astrocytes, glymphatic system, orexin, functional connectivity, and management have been the main research directions of researchers over the past few years and may be the future trend of valuable research. CONCLUSION We identified hotspots and emerging trends including risk factors, Aβ, tau, neuroinflammation, the glymphatic system, orexin, and management, which may help identify new therapeutic targets and improve clinical efficacy of sleep and AD.

Nutritional Status and Sleep Quality Are Associated with Atrial Fibrillation in Patients with Obstructive Sleep Apnea: Results from Tokyo Sleep Heart Study. Nutrients 2023; 15:3943. [PMID: 37764726 PMCID: PMC10535495 DOI: 10.3390/nu15183943] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 08/22/2023] [Revised: 09/03/2023] [Accepted: 09/11/2023] [Indexed: 09/29/2023] Open
Abstract
The prevalence of obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) in patients with atrial fibrillation (AF) has been observed to be much higher than in control participants without AF. Limited data exist regarding the prevalence of AF in patients with OSA. The clinical characteristics, nutritional status, and sleep parameters associated with AF in patients with OSA remain unclear. In this study, we aimed to determine the prevalence and factors associated with AF in patients with OSA from a large Japanese sleep cohort (Tokyo Sleep Heart Study). This was a single-center explorative cross-sectional study. Between November 2004 and June 2018, we consecutively recruited 2569 patients with OSA who underwent an overnight full polysomnography at our hospital. They were assessed using a 12-lead ECG and echocardiography. The clinical characteristics, sleep parameters, and medical history were also determined. Of the OSA patients, 169 (6.6%) had AF. Compared with the non-AF patients, OSA patients with AF were older and male, and they had higher prevalence of a history of alcohol consumption, hypertension, chronic kidney disease, and undernutrition, as well as a reduced ejection fraction. With regard to the sleep study parameters, OSA patients with AF had reduced slow-wave sleep and sleep efficiency, as well as higher periodic limb movements. There were no significant differences in the apnea-hypopnea index or hypoxia index between the two groups. The logistic regression analysis demonstrated that age (OR = 4.020; 95% CI: 1.895-8.527; p < 0.001), a history of alcohol consumption (OR = 2.718; 95% CI: 1.461-5.057; p = 0.002), a high CONUT score (OR = 2.129; 95% CI: 1.077-4.209; p = 0.030), and reduced slow-wave sleep (OR = 5.361; 95% CI: 1.505-19.104; p = 0.010) were factors significantly related to AF. The prevalence of AF in patients with OSA was 6.6%. Age, a history of alcohol consumption, undernutrition, and reduced sleep quality were independent risk factors for the presence of AF in patients with OSA, regardless of the severity of OSA.

Abstract
STUDY OBJECTIVES To determine the effect of transvenous phrenic nerve stimulation (TPNS) on nocturnal heart rate perturbations in patients with CSA. METHODS In this ancillary study of the remedē System Pivotal Trial, we analyzed electrocardiograms from baseline and follow-up overnight polysomnograms (PSG) in 48 CSA patients in sinus rhythm with implanted TPNS randomized to stimulation (treatment group; TPNS on) or no stimulation (control group; TPNS off). We quantified heart rate variability in the time and frequency domain. Mean change from baseline and standard error is provided. RESULTS TPNS titrated to reduce respiratory events is associated with reduced cyclical heart rate variations in the very low-frequency domain across REM (VLFI: 4.12 ± 0.79% vs. 6.87 ± 0.82%, p = 0.02) and NREM sleep (VLFI: 5.05 ± 0.68% vs. 6.74 ± 0.70%, p = 0.08) compared to the control group. Further, low-frequency oscillations were reduced in the treatment arm in REM (LFn: 0.67 ± 0.03 n.u. vs. 0.77 ± 0.03 n.u., p = 0.02) and NREM sleep (LFn: 0.70 ± 0.02 n.u. vs. 0.76 ± 0.02 n.u., p = 0.03). CONCLUSION In adult patients with moderate to severe central sleep apnea, transvenous phrenic nerve stimulation reduces respiratory events and is associated with the normalization of nocturnal heart rate perturbations. Long-term follow-up studies could establish whether the reduction in heart rate perturbation by TPNS also translates into cardiovascular mortality reduction.

Abstract
Sleep-disordered breathing (SDB) represents an important cardiovascular risk factor that is still often underestimated and not always optimally treated. Such breathing disorders can induce several harmful effects on the heart, also favoring the development of arrhythmias, ischemic heart disease, and left ventricular remodeling. Obstructive sleep apnea syndrome (OSA) is more frequent in heart failure patients than in the general population, promoting the worsening of left ventricular dysfunction. Both sleep apnea and heart failure have common clinical manifestations but also similar neurohormonal characteristics, both contributing to the development and progression of heart failure and resulting in increased mortality. The pathophysiological mechanisms underlying left ventricular dysfunction associated with SDB will be analyzed, and the potential therapeutic effects of gliflozins on OSA in heart failure patients will be discussed.

Long-term outcomes of CPAP-treated sleep apnea patients: Impact of blood-pressure responses after CPAP initiation and of treatment adherence. Sleep Med 2023; 109:25-31. [PMID: 37399713 DOI: 10.1016/j.sleep.2023.06.022] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 04/25/2023] [Revised: 06/20/2023] [Accepted: 06/21/2023] [Indexed: 07/05/2023]
Abstract
BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVE In randomized controlled trials, continuous positive airway pressure (CPAP) is reported as lowering blood pressure (BP) with a mean systolic blood pressure effect size of 2.5 mmHg. These trials have a median follow-up of less than 6 months. Whether this initial BP response during the first months of CPAP treatment translates into a reduction in long-term cardiovascular events and mortality is unknown. METHODS This observational study addressed long-term hard cardiovascular outcomes and all-cause mortality in a well-defined population of 241 patients previously included in the AgirSASadom parallel randomized controlled trial (assessing whether fixed-pressure CPAP was superior to auto-adjusted CPAP in reducing BP (baseline evaluations 2010-2012)). Long-term outcomes were analyzed using a Cox survival model, and a logistic regression analysis was performed for long-term CPAP adherence. RESULTS Sixty-nine cardiovascular events occurred in 61 patients during a median follow-up of 113 months (interquartile range [102 ; 124]) giving an incidence of 26 for 1000 person-years. Twenty-one (8.7%) patients died. BP values at baseline (i.e., office and 24-h BP) was a strong predictor of incident cardiometabolic events and mortality (p < 0.01) whereas initial BP response after the first four months of CPAP was not related to outcomes. Long-term CPAP adherence above 4 h/night was associated with a reduction in all-cause mortality (Log-rank P = 0.02) but not in the occurrence of long-term cardiovascular events. CONCLUSION Independently of initial blood pressure response, long-term CPAP adherence is one of the prerequisites for reducing mortality.

Abstract
Patients with obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) have a heightened risk of developing cardiovascular diseases, namely hypertension. While seminal evidence indicates a causal role for sympathetic nerve activity in the hypertensive phenotype commonly observed in patients with OSA, no studies have investigated potential sex differences in the sympathetic regulation of blood pressure in this population. Supporting this exploration are large-scale observational data, as well as controlled interventional studies in healthy adults, indicating that sleep disruption increases blood pressure to a greater extent in females relative to males. Furthermore, females with severe OSA demonstrate a more pronounced hypoxic burden (i.e., disease severity) during rapid eye movement sleep when sympathetic nerve activity is greatest. These findings would suggest that females are at greater risk for the hemodynamic consequences of OSA and related sleep disruption. Accordingly, the purpose of this review is three-fold: (1) to review the literature linking sympathetic nerve activity to hypertension in OSA, (2) to highlight recent experimental data supporting the hypothesis of sex differences in the regulation of sympathetic nerve activity in OSA, and (3) to discuss the potential sex differences in peripheral adrenergic signaling that may contribute to, or offset, cardiovascular risk in patients with OSA.

Abstract
Sleep disordered breathing (SDB), mainly obstructive sleep apnea (OSA), constitutes a major health problem due to the large number of patients. Intermittent hypoxia caused by SDB induces alterations in metabolic function. Nevertheless, metabolites characteristic for SDB are largely unknown. In this study, we performed gas chromatography-mass spectrometry-based targeted metabolome analysis using data from The Nagahama Study (n = 6373). SDB-related metabolites were defined based on their variable importance score in orthogonal partial least squares discriminant analysis and fold changes in normalized peak-intensity levels between moderate-severe SDB patients and participants without SDB. We identified 20 metabolites as SDB-related, and interestingly, these metabolites were frequently included in pathways related to fructose. Multivariate analysis revealed that moderate-severe SDB was a significant factor for increased plasma fructose levels (β = 0.210, P = 0.006, generalized linear model) even after the adjustment of confounding factors. We further investigated changes in plasma fructose levels after continuous positive airway pressure (CPAP) treatment using samples from patients with OSA (n = 60) diagnosed by polysomnography at Kyoto University Hospital, and found that patients with marked hypoxemia exhibited prominent hyperfructosemia and their plasma fructose levels lowered after CPAP treatment. These data suggest that hyperfructosemia is the abnormality characteristic to SDB, which can be reduced by CPAP treatment.

Abstract
Purpose We aim to evaluate the diagnostic performance of the SleepImage Ring device in identifying obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) across different severity in comparison to standard polysomnography (PSG). Methods Thirty-nine patients (mean age, 56.8 ± 15.0 years; 29 [74.3%] males) were measured with the SleepImage Ring and PSG study simultaneously in order to evaluate the diagnostic performance of the SleepImage device for diagnosing OSA. Variables such as sensitivity, specificity, positive and negative likelihood ratio, positive and negative predictive value, and accuracy were calculated with PSG-AHI thresholds of 5, 15, and 30 events/h. Receiver operating characteristic curves were also built according to the above PSG-AHI thresholds. In addition, we analyzed the correlation and agreement between the apnea-hypopnea index (AHI) obtained from the two measurement devices. Results There was a strong correlation (r = 0.89, P < 0.001 and high agreement in AHI between the SleepImage Ring and standard PSG. Also, the SleepImage Ring showed reliable diagnostic capability, with areas under the receiver operating characteristic curve of 1.00 (95% CI, 0.91, 1.00), 0.90 (95% CI, 0.77, 0.97), and 0.98 (95% CI, 0.88, 1.000) for corresponding PSG-AHI of 5, 15 and 30 events/h, respectively. Conclusion The SleepImage Ring could be a clinically reliable and cheaper alternative to the gold standard PSG when aiming to diagnose OSA in adults.
