Abstract
Obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) and cardiovascular co-morbidities have a mutually reinforcing effect, but existing studies have focussed only on the improvement of the associated co-morbidities by treatment for OSA. To provide fresh guidelines for the treatment of OSA from a co-morbidity standpoint, we conducted a systematic search of Web of Science, PubMed, EMBASE, and the Cochrane Library for articles published from inception up to 2 May 2023. Fourteen original studies of patients with OSA with cardiovascular co-morbidities and who received related treatment were included in the analysis. We found that diuretic treatment can reduce the apnea-hypopnea index in patients with OSA and hypertension (-19.41/h, p = 1.0 × 10-5 ), aldosterone-angiotensin inhibitors also have a 9.19/h reduction (p = 0.003), while the effect of renal sympathetic denervation is insignificant (-2.32/h, p = 0.19). The short-term treatment (<4 weeks) did not show an improvement (-2.72/h, p = 0.16), while long-term treatment (>4 weeks) produced surprising outcomes (-12.78/h, p = 0.002). Patients with milder disease (baseline AHI < 35/h) had insignificant improvements (-1.05/h, p = 0.46), whereas those with more severe disease (baseline AHI > 35/h) could achieve satisfactory outcomes (-14.74/h, p < 0.00001). In addition, it also showed some improvement in the oxygen desaturation index and blood oxygen. Our results support the additional benefit of antihypertensive treatment for OSA symptoms, and the efficacy can be affected by different therapy, treatment duration, and severity levels. It could be useful in developing clinical therapy, educating patients, and exploring interaction mechanisms. The proposal was registered with PROSPERO (CRD42022351206).

Abstract
PURPOSE In a cohort, observational prospective trial, we assessed the long-term dynamics of sleep-disordered breathing in patients with resistant hypertension after renal denervation and their association with blood pressure change at remote follow-up. MATERIALS AND METHODS Twenty-eight patients with stable hypertension who were recruited for endovascular radiofrequency renal denervation in 2012-2019 and had valid both baseline and follow-up sleep study, were included in the analysis. All patients underwent physical examination, anthropometry, office and ambulatory blood pressure measurements, blood and urine tests, kidney visualization, and full polysomnography before and within 12-36 months after renal denervation. RESULTS The average follow-up comprised 30.1 ± 8.4 months. At long-term follow-up, no significant changes in creatinine level, estimated glomerular filtration rate, body mass index were registered. There was a significant increase in sleep apnea severity indices: the mean change in apnea-hypopnea index comprised 9.0(-21.1;25.2) episodes/h, in oxygen desaturation index 6.5(-16.8;35.9) episodes/h, in the average SpO2 -1.7(-5.6;1.9)%. Over 12-month follow-up, there were no significant differences in blood pressure response in patients with and without sleep apnea. The baseline apnea-hypopnea and oxygen desaturation indices and the mean SpO2 were associated with the circadian blood pressure profile at follow-up, but did not correlate with the blood pressure response. CONCLUSIONS Although the severity of sleep apnea worsens at > 12 months follow-up after renal denervation, this is not associated with hypertension exaggeration.

Abstract
Recently, the use of endovascular denervation (EDN) to treat resistant hypertension has gained significant attention. In addition to reducing sympathetic activity, EDN might also have beneficial effects on pulmonary arterial hypertension, insulin resistance, chronic kidney disease, atrial fibrillation, heart failure, obstructive sleep apnea syndrome, loin pain hematuria syndrome, cancer pain and so on. In this article we will summarize the progress of EDN in clinical research.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES We first aimed to identify the histopathological changes occurring immediately after renal denervation (RDN) with radiofrequency energy, and then to assess the feasibility of determining procedural success using currently available clinical intravascular imaging techniques. BACKGROUND Catheter-based RDN has been used as an alternative therapy for hypertension. However, no practical endpoint to determine procedural success during treatment has been established. METHODS A total of 39 ablation lesions were induced in vivo in eight porcine renal arteries and a total of 15 ablation lesions were induced ex vivo in five excised porcine renal arteries with a radiofrequency delivery device. Acute histological changes and appearance on intravascular imaging of the lesions were investigated with light microscopy, transmission electron microscopy, intravascular ultrasound (IVUS), and optical frequency domain imaging (OFDI). RESULTS Marked changes were noted in media, adventitia, and perirenal-arterial nerves immediately after in vivo ablation. Changes visualized on IVUS were characterized by focal adventitial thickening comprising a relatively echogenic layer around a heterogeneously hypoechoic interior region, and on OFDI as disappearance of the external elastic membrane signals with high scattering of signals in the surface layer. The changes after ex vivo ablation were histopathologically identical to those from in vivo ablation. There were statistically significant positive correlations in measured dimensions (area, depth, width, and diameter) of ablation lesions between histopathology and IVUS/OFDI findings (Pearson correlation coefficients = 0.69-0.77). CONCLUSIONS These findings suggest that observation of treated renal arteries by IVUS or OFDI immediately after RDN improves the success rate of RDN.

Abstract
Renal sympathetic denervation (RSD) as a therapy for patients with resistant hypertension has attracted great interest. The majority of studies in this field have demonstrated impressive reductions in blood pressure (BP). However, these trials were not randomized or sham-controlled and hence, the findings may have been overinflated due to trial biases. SYMPLICITY HTN-3 was the first randomized controlled trial to use a blinded sham-control and ambulatory BP monitoring. A surprise to many was that this study was neutral. Possible reasons for this neutrality include the fact that RSD may not be effective at lowering BP in man, RSD was not performed adequately due to limited operator experience, patients’ adherence with their anti-hypertensive drugs may have changed during the trial period, and perhaps the intervention only works in certain subgroups that are yet to be identified. Future studies seeking to demonstrate efficacy of RSD should be designed as randomized blinded sham-controlled trials. The efficacy of RSD is in doubt, but many feel that its safety has been established through the thousands of patients in whom the procedure has been performed. Over 90% of these data, however, are for the Symplicity™ system and rarely extend beyond 12 months of follow-up. Long-term safety cannot be assumed with RSD and nor should it be assumed that if one catheter system is safe then all are. We hope that in the near future, with the benefit of well-designed clinical trials, the role of renal denervation in the management of hypertension will be established.

Abstract
Obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) syndrome is a prevalent condition characterized by repeated episodes of obstruction of the upper airway, leading to intermittent hypoxemia and important endothelial and anatomical dysfunctions that cause cardiovascular and cerebrovascular disease. The finding of the relationship between OSA and hypertension, especially resistant hypertension (RHT), has increased the interest in therapeutic strategies that affect renal sympathetic activity in these patients. The observational studies published until now demonstrated that renal denervation therapy can reduce the severity of OSA syndrome. Renal sympathetic denervation (RDN) could be a future therapeutic possibility for conditions other than RHT, such as atrial fibrillation, heart failure, obesity, and OSA syndrome, where renal sympathetic system plays an important physiological role. The aim of this review was to elucidate the implications of renal sympathetic activity in OSA syndrome.

Abstract
PURPOSE Recent evidence associates sympathetic tone with severity of obstructive sleep apnea (OSA). Renal sympathetic denervation (RDN), by decreasing sympathetic tone, has the potential to decrease OSA severity. Small observational studies that assessed this hypothesis lacked precision. Hence, in this meta-analysis, we have attempted to pool available data from studies that have assessed the effect of RDN on OSA severity in patients with OSA. METHODS Medline, Embase, Cochrane central, Ovid, Cinahl, web of science, and conference abstracts were searched for eligible citations by two independent reviewers using key words "renal denervation," "hypertension," and "obstructive sleep apnea." From a total of 2,863 identified citations, using meta-analysis of observational studies in epidemiology method, five studies were assessed eligible and included in the meta-analysis. RESULTS All five studies followed an observational study design, involved patients with OSA and HTN, and reported an apnea-hypopnea index (AHI) 6 months post-RDN. Four were "before and after" studies and one compared continuous positive airway pressure with RDN. In the pooled analysis, involving 49 patients, RDN was associated with a significant reduction in mean AHI [weighted mean difference -9.61 (95 % CI -15.43 to -3.79, P = 0.001)] 6 months post-RDN. One study also reported improvement in oxygen desaturation index and Epworth sleepiness scale score 6 months post-RDN. CONCLUSIONS RDN is associated with significant improvement in OSA severity. However, our results need validation in RCTs that assess effect of RDN in patients with OSA, which can potentially broaden the clinical applicability of RDN.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Hypertension continues to be a major burden of public health concern despite the recent advances and proven benefit of pharmacological therapy. A certain subset of patients has hypertension resistant to maximal medical therapy and appropriate lifestyle measures. A novel catheter-based technique for renal denervation (RDN) as a new therapeutic avenue has great promise for the treatment of refractory hypertension. SUMMARY This review included the physiology of the renal sympathetic nervous system and the renal nerve anatomy. Furthermore, the RDN procedure, technology systems, and RDN clinical trials as well as findings besides antihypertensive effects were discussed. Findings on safety and efficacy seem to suggest that renal sympathetic denervation could be of therapeutic benefit in refractory hypertensive patients. Despite the fast pace of development in RDN therapies, only initial and very limited clinical data are available. Large gaps in knowledge concerning the long-term effects and consequences of RDN still exist, and solid, randomized data are warranted.
