[PMID: 38983448 PMCID: PMC11231751 DOI: 10.1016/j.pmedr.2024.102798] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 02/28/2024] [Revised: 06/11/2024] [Accepted: 06/12/2024] [Indexed: 07/11/2024] Open
Abstract
Background Non-alcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD), a chronic liver condition of increasing prevalence, is closely related to various metabolic disorders. Hemoglobin, a protein that transports oxygen in red blood cells, is the focus of this study, which seeks to investigate its potential association with NAFLD. Methods We selected 6,516 eligible adult participants from the United States using the 2017-2020 National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey database for cross-sectional analyses. We analyzed the association of hemoglobin with NAFLD using weighted logistic regression models. Results The study performed a weighted logistic regression modeling analysis, which verified that hemoglobin levels were positively associated with NAFLD, especially in the higher hemoglobin quartile groups. Subgroup analyses revealed no significant interactions, demonstrating the robustness of the model. The analysis of mediation effects showed that Gamma-Glutamyl Transferase, Alanine Aminotransferase, and triglycerides were important mediating variables in the relationship between hemoglobin and NAFLD. Conclusion Increased hemoglobin levels were found to be significantly and independently associated with an increased NAFLD risk. This insight is crucial for the risk assessment and early detection of NAFLD, underscoring the need for heightened vigilance in individuals with higher hemoglobin levels.

[PMID: 38355063 DOI: 10.1016/j.arth.2024.02.020] [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: 10/26/2023] [Revised: 02/02/2024] [Accepted: 02/07/2024] [Indexed: 02/16/2024] Open
Abstract
BACKGROUND Up to 25% of patients requiring hip or knee arthroplasty have sleep apnea (SA), and these patients have historically been excluded from outpatient programs. The objectives of this study were to evaluate same-day discharge failure as well as 30-day complications, readmissions, and unexpected visits. METHODS A retrospective case-control study comparing patients who have and do not have SA matched for age, sex and arthroplasty type (total hip arthroplasty, total knee arthroplasty, unicompartimental knee arthroplasty) who underwent primary outpatient surgery between February 2019 and December 2022 in 2 academic hospitals was conducted. Cases with mild SA, moderate SA with a body mass index (BMI) <35, and SA of all severity treated by continuous positive airway pressure machines were eligible. There were 156 patients included (78 cases). Complications were assessed according to the Clavien-Dindo Classification and the Comprehensive Complication Index. Continuous variables were evaluated by Student's T or Mann-Whitney tests, while categorical data were analyzed by Chi-square or Fisher tests. Univariate analyses were performed to determine discharge failure risk factors. RESULTS There were 6 cases (7.7%) and 5 controls (6.4%) who failed to be discharged on surgery day (P = .754), with postoperative hypoxemia (6, [3.8%]) and apnea periods (3, [1.9%]) being the most common causes. Higher BMI (odds ratio = 1.19, P = .013) and general anesthesia (odds ratio = 11.97, P = .004) were found to be risk factors for discharge failure. No difference was observed on 30-day readmissions (P = .497), unexpected visits (P = 1.000), and complications on the Clavien-Dindo Classification (P > .269) and Comprehensive Complication Index (P > .334) scales. CONCLUSIONS Selected patients who have SA can safely undergo outpatient hip or knee arthroplasty. Higher BMI and general anesthesia increased the odds of same-day discharge failure. LEVEL OF EVIDENCE Level III, Case-control Study.

Relationships between apolipoprotein E and insulin resistance in patients with obstructive sleep apnoea: a large-scale cross-sectional study. Nutr Metab (Lond) 2024; 21:40. [PMID: 38956564 PMCID: PMC11221003 DOI: 10.1186/s12986-024-00816-w] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 04/22/2023] [Accepted: 06/18/2024] [Indexed: 07/04/2024] Open
Abstract
BACKGROUND Obstructive sleep apnoea (OSA) is commonly associated with insulin resistance (IR) and dyslipidaemia. Apolipoprotein E (APOE) plays important roles in lipid metabolism. The study aimed to disentangle the multifactorial relationships between IR and APOE based on a large-scale population with OSA. METHODS A total of 5,591 participants who underwent polysomnography for OSA diagnosis were finally enrolled. We collected anthropometric, fasting biochemical and polysomnographic data for each participant. Linear regression analysis was performed to evaluate the relationships between APOE, IR, and sleep breathing-related parameters. Logistic regression, restricted cubic spline (RCS) and mediation analyses were used to explore relationships between APOE and IR in patients with OSA. RESULTS Increasing OSA severity was associated with greater obesity, more obvious dyslipidaemia, and higher levels of APOE and IR. APOE was positively correlated with the apnoea-hypopnoea index (AHI), oxygen desaturation index (ODI) and microarousal index (MAI) even after adjusting for age, sex, body mass index, and smoking and drinking levels (β = 0.107, β = 0.102, β = 0.075, respectively, all P < 0.001). The risks of IR increased from the first to fourth quartiles of APOE (odds ratio (OR) = 1.695, 95% CI: 1.425-2.017; OR = 2.371, 95% confidence interval (CI): 2.009-2.816; OR = 3.392, 95% CI: 2.853-4.032, all P < 0.001) after adjustments. RCS analysis indicated non-linear and dose response relationships between APOE, AHI, ODI, MAI and insulin resistance. Mediation analyses showed that HOMA-IR explained 9.1% and 10% of the association between AHI, ODI and APOE. The same trends were observed in men, but not in women. CONCLUSIONS This study showed that APOE is a risk factor for IR; moreover, IR acts as a mediator between OSA and APOE in men. APOE, IR, and OSA showed non-linear and multistage relationships. Taken together, these observations revealed the complex relationships of metabolic disorders in patients with OSA, which could lead to the development of new treatment modalities and a deeper understanding of the systemic impact of OSA.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Certain studies have indicated a link between obstructive sleep apnea and insulin resistance in specific populations. To gain more clarity, extensive research involving a broad sample of the overall population is essential. The primary objective of this study was to investigate this correlation by utilizing data from the National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey database. METHODS The analysis incorporated data from the National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey database spanning the time periods from 2005 to 2008 and from 2015 to 2018, with a focus on American adults aged 18 years and older after applying weight adjustments. Key variables such as obstructive sleep apnea, triglyceride glucose index, and various confounding factors were considered. A generalized linear logistic regression model was used to investigate the association between obstructive sleep apnea and the triglyceride glucose index, with additional exploration of the consistency of the results through hierarchical analysis and other techniques. RESULTS The study included participants aged between 18 and 90 years, with an average age of 46.75 years. Among the total sample, 50.76% were male. The triglyceride glucose index demonstrated a diagnostic capability for obstructive sleep apnea, with an AUC of 0.701 (95% CI: 0.6619-0.688). According to the fully adjusted model, individuals in the fourth quartile of the triglyceride glucose index showed an increased likelihood of having obstructive sleep apnea compared to those in the first quartile (OR: 1.45; 95% CI: 1.02-2.06; P < 0.05). Subgroup analysis indicated that male sex (OR: 2.09; 95% CI: 1.76-2.45; P < 0.05), younger age (OR: 2.83; 95% CI: 2.02-3.96; P < 0.05), white ethnicity (OR: 2.29; 95% CI: 1.93-2.73; P < 0.05), and obesity (OR: 1.54; 95% CI: 1.28-1.85; P < 0.05) were correlated with an elevated risk of OSA. CONCLUSIONS This study demonstrated a strong association between an elevated TG index and OSA. Additionally, the triglyceride glucose index could serve as an independent predictor of obstructive sleep apnea.

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. [PMID: 37203593 DOI: 10.1111/jsr.13944] [Citation(s) in RCA: 2] [Impact Index Per Article: 2.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 01/29/2023] [Revised: 04/04/2023] [Accepted: 05/04/2023] [Indexed: 05/20/2023]
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
What an honor to write about Dr. Edward O. Bixler's contributions to the sleep field. In 1967, Dr. Bixler published a case report on a chimpanzee with implanted brain electrodes while working at an Air Force base in New Mexico. A few years later, in 1971, he published on the sleep effects of flurazepam in individuals with insomnia together with Dr. Anthony Kales, data that he had collected when the Sleep Research & Treatment Center (SRTC) was housed at the University of California Los Angeles. Dr. Bixler, a meticulous scientist, learned from Dr. Kales, a devoted clinician, to study "the whole patient, and all aspects of sleep," a legacy that continued when the SRTC moved to Penn State in Hershey. Indeed, Dr. Bixler's tenure at Penn State from 1971 until 2019 kept the science of the SRTC focused on that premise and helped translate scientific evidence into clinical care. He not only contributed early to the pharmacology of sleep and the effects of hypnotics, but he was also a pioneer in "sleep epidemiology." His "Prevalence of sleep disorders in the Los Angeles metropolitan area" study of 1979 was the first rigorous epidemiological study on sleep disturbances. Starting in 1990, he established the Penn State Adult Cohort to estimate the prevalence and natural history of sleep-disordered breathing and other sleep disorders in adults. Inspired by life-course epidemiology, he established in 2001 the Penn State Child Cohort to estimate the same phenomena in children. This Living Legend paper captures and highlights Dr. Bixler's enduring legacy to sleep science.

Abstract
Population aging is a global demographic characteristic of the 21st century, and healthy eating is a core component of healthy aging. However, limited evidence is available among older adults for associations between diet quality and circadian syndrome (CircS). Thus, this study examined associations between dietary patterns and CircS among a representative sample of middle-older adults in the US. The sample comprised middle-older adults enrolled in the 2016 core wave of the Health and Retirement Study (HRS) and one of its sub-studies, the 2013 Health Care and Nutrition Study (HCNS). A food frequency questionnaire was used to quantify habitual food intake and identify dietary patterns using a factor analysis. CircS was defined based on the existence of ≥4 components of metabolic syndrome and indicators of sleep disorders and depression. A total of 4253 middle-older adults with a mean age (SD) of 65.4 (10.0) years were included in the study. The prevalence of CircS was 35.9%. Comparing extreme quartiles of the "Prudent Pattern", the odds ratio (95% CI) for CircS was 0.72 (0.55-0.94), and it was 1.47 (1.10-1.95) for the "Western Pattern". The "Western Pattern" was positively associated while the "Prudent Pattern" was inversely associated with the odds of CircS among middle-older adults.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Mild-to-moderate obstructive sleep apnea (mmOSA) is highly prevalent in the general population. However, studies on its association with incident cardiovascular and/or cerebrovascular disease (CBVD) are limited. We examined the association between mild-to-moderate OSA and incident cardiovascular and/or cerebrovascular (CBVD) in a general population sample, and whether age modifies this association. METHODS A total of 1173 adults from the Penn State Adult Cohort (20-88 years) without CBVD or severe OSA at baseline were followed-up after 9.2 (±4.1) years. Incident CBVD was defined based on a self-report of a physician diagnosis or treatment for heart disease and/or stroke. Logistic regression examined the association of mild-to-moderate OSA (AHI 5-29.9) with incident CBVD and the combined effect of mmOSA and MetS on incident CBVD after adjusting for multiple confounders. RESULTS Age significantly modified the association between mmOSA with incident CBVD (p-interaction = 0.04). Mild-to-moderate OSA was significantly associated with incident CBVD in adults aged <60 years (OR = 1.74, 95%CI = 1.06-2.88, p = 0.029), but not in adults aged ≥60 years (OR = 0.71, 95%CI = 0.39-1.27, p = 0.247). Even mild OSA (AHI 5-14.9) carried a significant risk for incident CBDV in adults aged <60 years (OR = 1.86, 95%CI = 1.05-3.28, p = 0.032). An additive effect was found between mmOSA and MetS with incident CBVD in those aged <65 years (OR = 3.84, 95%CI = 1.95-7.56, p<0.001). CONCLUSIONS The risk of incident CBVD is increased in young and middle-aged but not older adults with mmOSA, which may affect the way we currently diagnose and treat this highly prevalent sleep-related breathing disorder.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Obstructive sleep apnea (OSA), characterised by recurrent episodes of upper airway collapse, intermittent hypoxia (IH) and sleep fragmentation (SF), has been associated with carcinogenesis in pre-clinical models. The relationship between OSA and colorectal cancer (CRC) in clinical studies is controversial. AIM The objective of this meta-analysis was to assess the association between OSA and CRC. METHODS Two independent investigators searched studies indexed in CINAHL, MEDLINE, EMBASE, the Cochrane Database and clinicaltrials.gov that were randomised controlled trials (RCT) or observational studies evaluating the relationship between OSA and CRC. Studies were included if they had available odds ratios (OR) and relative risks (RR) or if hazard ratios (HR) with 95% confidence intervals (CI) were available and a reference group composed of participants who did not have OSA. OR and 95% CI were calculated using a random-effect, generic inverse variance method. RESULTS We included four observational studies out of 85 records, comprising a combined cohort of 5,651,662 identified patients in the data analysis. Three studies used polysomnography to identify OSA. The pooled OR of CRC in patients with OSA was 1.49 (95% CI, 0.75 to 2.97). The statistical heterogeneity was high with I2 of 95%. CONCLUSIONS Our study is unable to conclusively point towards OSA being a risk factor in the development of CRC, despite the plausible biological mechanisms for this. Further well-designed prospective RCT assessing the risk of CRC in patients with OSA and the impact of OSA treatments on the incidence and prognosis of CRC are needed.

Abstract
The study aimed to assess the associations of dietary patterns and circadian syndrome (CircS). Data from National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey (NHANES) 2005-2016 were analyzed (n = 10,486). Factor analysis was used to construct dietary patterns based on two 24 h food recalls. CircS was defined based on components of the metabolic syndrome, with the addition of short sleep and depression symptoms. Multivariable logistic regression was used to analyze the associations. Two major dietary patterns were identified. The Western dietary pattern had high loadings of refined grains, solid fats, added sugars, and red and cured meats, while the prudent pattern was characterized by a high intake of vegetables, whole grains, oils, nuts, and seeds. The prevalence of CircS was 41.3%. Comparing extreme quartiles of intake, the odds ratios (OR) for having CircS were 1.96 (95%CI 1.53-2.53) and 0.71 (95%CI 0.58-0.86) for the Western pattern and prudent pattern, respectively. The association between the Western dietary pattern and CircS was stronger among men (OR = 2.05; 95%CI 1.48-2.85) and those with low income (OR = 1.94; 95%CI 1.27-2.96) and high education (OR = 3.38; 95%CI 1.90-6.04). The Western dietary pattern was associated with a higher likelihood of having CircS, while the prudent pattern was inversely associated with CircS.

Abstract
The purpose of this review was to analyze the available literature on the subject of obesity and obstructive sleep apnea. We searched for available articles for the time period from 2013 to 2023. Obesity is listed as one of the most important health issues. Complications of obesity, with obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) listed among them, are common problems in clinical practice. Obesity is a well-recognized risk factor for OSA, but OSA itself may contribute to worsening obesity. Bariatric surgery is a treatment of choice for severely obese patients, especially with present complications, and remains the only causative treatment for patients with OSA. Though improvement in OSA control in patients after bariatric surgery is well-established knowledge, the complete resolution of OSA is achieved in less than half of them. The determination of subpopulations of patients in whom bariatric surgery would be especially advantageous is an important issue of OSA management. Increasing the potential of non-invasive strategies in obesity treatment requires studies that assess the efficacy and safety of combined methods.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES The association between sleep-disordered breathing (SDB) and sinusitis has been widely studied; however, research on SDB-related sleep problems and sinusitis are limited. This study aims to determine the relationship between SDB-related sleep problems, SDB symptom score, and sinusitis. METHODS After the screening, data were analyzed from 3414 individuals (≥20 years) from the 2005-2006 National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey questionnaire. Data on snoring, daytime sleepiness, obstructive sleep apnea (snorting, gasping, or cessation of breathing while sleeping), and sleep duration were analyzed. The SDB symptom score was determined based on a summary of the scores of the above four parameters. Pearson chi-square test and logistic regression analysis were used in statistical analyses. RESULTS After adjusting for confounders, self-reported sinusitis was strongly correlated with frequent apneas (OR: 1.950; 95% CI: 1.349-2.219), excessive daytime sleepiness (OR: 1.880; 95% CI: 1.504-2.349), and frequent snoring (OR: 1.481; 95% CI: 1.097-2.000). Compared to an SDB symptom score of 0, the higher the SDB symptom score, the higher the risk of self-reported sinusitis. For the subgroup analyses, this association was significant in females and across ethnic groups. CONCLUSION In the United States, SDB is significantly associated with self-reported sinusitis in adults. In addition, our study suggests that patients with SDB should be aware of the risk of developing sinusitis.

Abstract
Cardiometabolic diseases are a major public-health concern owing to their increasing prevalence worldwide. These diseases are characterized by a high degree of interindividual variability with regards to symptoms, severity, complications and treatment responsiveness. Recent technological advances, and the growing availability of wearable and digital devices, are now making it feasible to profile individuals in ever-increasing depth. Such technologies are able to profile multiple health-related outcomes, including molecular, clinical and lifestyle changes. Nowadays, wearable devices allowing for continuous and longitudinal health screening outside the clinic can be used to monitor health and metabolic status from healthy individuals to patients at different stages of disease. Here we present an overview of the wearable and digital devices that are most relevant for cardiometabolic-disease-related readouts, and how the information collected from such devices could help deepen our understanding of metabolic diseases, improve their diagnosis, identify early disease markers and contribute to individualization of treatment and prevention plans.

Abstract
Purpose Research on the relationship between sleep duration and obesity defined using multiple anthropometric and bioelectrical indices in women remains scarce. We aimed to explore the association between sleep duration and body mass index (BMI), waist-hip ratio (WHR), body fat percentage (PBF) and visceral fat area (VFA) among females. Methods We recruited women for medical examination using multistage cluster sampling. Sleep was assessed using Pittsburgh Sleep Quality Index (PSQI) and sleep duration was categorized into short (<7 h), optimal (7 <9 h) and long sleep (≥ 9 h). Weight and height were measured using a calibrated stadiometer. Waist circumference was manually measured. PBF, and VFA were estimated by bioelectrical impedance analysis. Data on sociodemographic characteristics and lifestyle factors were also collected and included in the logistic regression models to explore the independent association between sleep duration and obesity defined by different indices. Results A total of 7,763 women with a mean age of 42.6 ± 13.5 years were included. The percentage of women reporting short and long sleep was 10.3 and 13.4% respectively. The mean BMI, WHR, PBF and VFA were 23.07 ± 3.30 kg/m2, 0.78 ± 0.06, 32.23 ± 6.08% and 91.64 ± 35.97cm2, respectively. Short sleep was independently associated with 35% (95% CI: 1.05-1.75) increased odds of general obesity (BMI ≥ 28 kg/cm2), and long sleep was associated with 18% (95% CI: 1.01-1.37) increased odds of visceral obesity (VFA > 100 cm2). No association was observed between sleep deprivation or excessive sleep and high WHR or high PBF. Conclusion In women, short sleep was associated with an increased odds of general obesity, whereas long sleep was associated with an increased odds of visceral obesity. Longitudinal observations are needed to confirm this cross-sectional relationship.

Abstract
AIM Emerging evidence has revealed that obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) is an independent risk factor for the development of a variety of adverse metabolic disease states. In this study, we evaluated the association between OSA severity and metabolic dysfunction-associated fatty liver disease (MAFLD) among Asian populations. MATERIALS AND METHODS This was a cross-sectional, single-center study. The study cohort consisted of patients undergoing polysomnography and abdominal ultrasonography. Logistic regression analysis was used to evaluate the independent risk factors of MAFLD in patients with OSA. RESULTS A total of 1065 patients (277 non-MAFLD and 788 MAFLD) were included in the study. The prevalence of MAFLD in non-OSA, mild-moderate OSA, and severe OSA patients was 58.16%, 72.41%, and 78.0%, respectively (p < 0.001). We identified significant differences in body mass index (BMI), apnea-hypopnea index (AHI), oxygen desaturation index (ODI), and lowest O2 saturation (LaSO2) between non-MAFLD and MAFLD patients (all p < 0.001). After adjusting for confounding variables, we used multivariate regression analysis to show that BMI, ODI, and triglyceride (TG) levels independently predicted the occurrence of MAFLD (odds ratio [OR] = 1.234, p < 0.001; OR = 1.022, p = 0.013; OR = 1.384, p = 0.001, respectively). Moreover, stratified analysis according to BMI indicated that TG levels were the predominant risk factor for MAFLD in a group of patients with a BMI < 23 kg/m2, while BMI, ODI, TG levels, and total cholesterol (TC) were the major risk factors for MAFLD in a group of patients with a BMI ≥ 23 kg/m2 (all p < 0.05). CONCLUSION OSA-associated chronic intermittent hypoxia was independently associated with the risk of MAFLD, especially in OSA patients with a BMI ≥ 23 kg/m2, suggesting that oxidative stress might play an important role in the pathogenesis of MAFLD in patients with OSA.

Abstract
PURPOSE We aimed to examine the relationships of disease activity and risk factors with serum levels of orexigenic and anorexigenic hormones in patients with obstructive sleep apnea syndrome (OSAS). METHODS Fasting blood samples were taken for hormonal analysis of all participants, abdominal/neck bioimpedance measurements were recorded, and polysomnography (PSG) analyses were performed. According to the apnea-hypopnea index (AHI), 34 patients with newly diagnosed OSAS and 34 participants without OSAS were compared. RESULTS The median body mass index (BMI) measured in the OSAS group was 30.39 kg/m2 and AHI was 18.95 and these values were 25.40 kg/m2 and 1.55 in the control group. There was a higher level of visceral adiposity and neuropeptide Y (NPY) in the moderate-to-severe OSAS group compared to the mild OSAS and control groups, and in the mild OSAS group compared to the control group (p = 0.001, p < 0.001). A positive correlation between the level of NPY and AHI and BMI (p < 0.001, p = 0.011), and a negative correlation between NPY levels and oxygen saturation (p = 0.001) was found. Oxygen saturation and desaturation rates were correlated with body fat percentage, body fat mass, abdominal adiposity, visceral adiposity, resting metabolic rate, and NPY levels. CONCLUSIONS The visceral adiposity ratio and increase in NPY levels are important parameters that increase the severity of OSAS. Considering the negative effects of NPY on vascular endothelium, measurement of basal NPY level before PSG in patients with OSAS is considered a parameter related to disease severity.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Inflammation-related mechanisms may be important in the development of obstructive sleep apnea (OSA), and diet plays a crucial role in modulating inflammation. Current epidemiologic evidence for the associations between dietary patterns and OSA risk is limited to cross-sectional studies. OBJECTIVES We investigated prospectively the associations of overall diet quality and proinflammatory diet with OSA risk. METHODS We followed 145,801 participants in the Nurses' Health Study (NHS) (2002-2012), NHS II (1995-2013), and Health Professionals Follow-up Study (1996-2012). Alternative Healthy Eating Index 2010 (AHEI) and Empirical Dietary Inflammatory Pattern (EDIP) scores were calculated based on validated FFQs administered every 4 y. Cox models were used to estimate HRs and 95% CIs. RESULTS We documented 8856 incident OSA cases during follow-up. In pooled analyses adjusted for potential confounders, higher diet quality (higher AHEI scores) was associated with lower OSA risk (HR comparing the highest with the lowest quintile of AHEI: 0.76; 95% CI: 0.71, 0.82; P-trend < 0.001), and higher dietary inflammatory potential (higher EDIP scores) was associated with significantly increased risk (HR comparing the highest with the lowest quintile of EDIP: 1.94; 95% CI: 1.81, 2.08; P-trend < 0.001). Additional adjustment for metabolic factors attenuated both associations. The association with AHEI score was no longer statistically significant (comparable HR: 0.98; 95% CI: 0.91, 1.05; P-trend = 0.54), whereas the association with EDIP score remained statistically significant (comparable HR: 1.31; 95% CI: 1.22, 1.41; P-trend < 0.001). CONCLUSIONS A healthier diet, particularly one with anti-inflammatory potential, was associated with lower OSA risk.

Abstract
Recently an association between blood glucose dysregulation and sleep disruption was suggested. The association between sleep disordered breathing, most of which is due to obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) in the general population, and diabetic severity, as well as the impact of antidiabetic treatment, remains unclear. This study aimed to investigate these associations as well as age and sex differences. This cross-sectional study evaluated 7,680 community participants as the main cohort (population-based cohort). OSA was assessed by the 3% oxygen desaturation index from pulse oximetry, which was corrected for sleep duration obtained by wrist actigraphy. For arguing the limitations for using pulse oximetry, 597 hospitalised patients, who were assessed by the apnea-hypopnea index from attended polysomnography, were also evaluated as the validation cohort (hospital-based cohort). Moderate-to-severe OSA was more prevalent as haemoglobin A1c (HbA1c) levels increased (<5.6%/5.6%-<6.5%/6.5%-<7.5%/≥7.5%, respectively) in both cohorts (p < 0.001), but only in those without antidiabetic treatment. The HbA1c level was an independent factor for moderate-to-severe OSA (population-based cohort, odds ratio [OR] 1.26, 95% confidence interval [CI] 1.10-1.45; hospital-based cohort, OR 1.69, 95% CI 1.22-2.33, per 1% increase). These associations were more prominent in the middle-aged (aged <60 years) than in the elderly (aged ≥60 years) and in women than in men in both cohorts. The prevalence of moderate-to-severe OSA in patients with antidiabetic treatment in the hospital-based cohort was ≥75% regardless of HbA1c levels. In conclusion, an association between the prevalence of OSA and HbA1c level even within or over the normal range was found only in patients without antidiabetic treatment and was more prominent in the middle-aged and in women.

Abstract
Abstract
Circadian rhythm refers to the daily physiologically fluctuating patterns of systemic processes that occur within a circa 24-hour timeframe, independently of external factors. There is evidence that in time, external and internal cycle misalignment leads to severe health consequences, resulting in the development of cardiometabolic disturbances. Desynchronized hormonal fluctuations along with daily specific macronutrient utilization patterns are also discussed, which by consequence, are all predictors of metabolic syndrome. The aim of this paper is to provide insight on the circadian clock’s organization throughout the human body and to explain the underlying genetic background. By understanding these well-established molecular mechanisms and processes, we believe this paper will provide accuracy regarding the importance of the circadian clock’s integrity and will highlight its role in the etiopathology of cardiometabolic syndrome.

Improvements in Plasma Tumor Necrosis Factor-Alpha Levels after a Weight-Loss Lifestyle Intervention in Patients with Obstructive Sleep Apnea. LIFE (BASEL, SWITZERLAND) 2022; 12:life12081252. [PMID: 36013431 PMCID: PMC9410143 DOI: 10.3390/life12081252] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 07/14/2022] [Revised: 08/07/2022] [Accepted: 08/13/2022] [Indexed: 11/17/2022]
Abstract
Obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) and systemic inflammation typically coexist within a vicious cycle. This study aimed at exploring the effectiveness of a weight-loss lifestyle intervention in reducing plasma tumor necrosis factor-alpha (TNF-a), a well-established modulator of systematic inflammation in OSA. Eighty-four adult, overweight patients with a diagnosis of moderate-to-severe OSA were randomized to a standard care (SCG, n = 42) or a Mediterranean lifestyle group (MLG, n = 42). Both groups were prescribed continuous positive airway pressure (CPAP), while the MLG additionally participated in a 6-month behavioral intervention aiming at healthier weight and lifestyle habits according to the Mediterranean pattern. Plasma TNF-a was measured by an immunoenzymatic method both pre- and post-intervention. Drop-out rates were 33% (n = 14) for the SCG and 24% (n = 10) for the MLG. Intention-to-treat analysis (n = 84) revealed a significant decrease in median TNF-a only in the MLG (from 2.92 to 2.00 pg/mL, p = 0.001). Compared to the SCG, the MLG exhibited lower follow-up TNF-a levels (mean difference adjusted for age, sex, baseline TNF-a and CPAP use: −0.97 pg/mL, p = 0.014), and further controlling for weight loss did not attenuate this difference (p = 0.020). Per protocol analyses (n = 60) revealed similar results. In conclusion, a healthy lifestyle intervention can lower plasma TNF-a levels in patients with OSA.

Abstract
The Mediterranean diet is a plant-based, antioxidant-rich, unsaturated fat dietary pattern that has been consistently associated with lower rates of noncommunicable diseases and total mortality, so that it is considered one of the healthiest dietary patterns. Clinical trials and mechanistic studies have demonstrated that the Mediterranean diet and its peculiar foods and nutrients exert beneficial effects against inflammation, oxidative stress, dysmetabolism, vascular dysfunction, adiposity, senescence, cognitive decline, neurodegeneration, and tumorigenesis, thus preventing age-associated chronic diseases and improving wellbeing and health. Nocturnal sleep is an essential physiological function, whose alteration is associated with health outcomes and chronic diseases. Scientific evidence suggests that diet and sleep are related in a bidirectional relationship, and the understanding of this association is important given their role in disease prevention. In this review, we surveyed the literature concerning the current state of evidence from epidemiological studies on the impact of the Mediterranean diet on nighttime sleep quantity and quality. The available studies indicate that greater adherence to the Mediterranean diet is associated with adequate sleep duration and with several indicators of better sleep quality. Potential mechanisms mediating the effect of the Mediterranean diet and its foods and nutrients on sleep are described, and gap-in-knowledge and new research agenda to corroborate findings are discussed.

Abstract
Apnea is a common problem observed among obese individuals, affecting the quality of sleep and increasing cardiovascular risk and mortality. The current study monitored the risk of obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) following diet therapy and sports-associated diet therapy in patients with metabolic syndrome (MS) and hypothyroidism. The subjects included in the study were divided into 3 groups: control group (CG) (n=36), diet therapy group (DG) (including patients following a personalized diet therapy program) (n=76), and diet therapy and sports group (DSG) (which considered patients doing sports in addition to following a personalized diet therapy program) (n=80). The evaluation methods included body analysis (body mass index, fat mass, and visceral fat), paraclinical analysis (homeostasis model assessment of insulin resistance), assessment of difficulty in breathing, stress monitoring, hypothyroidism, and risk of OSA. The OSA index was assessed using the Berlin Questionnaire of Sleep Apnea and Epworth Sleepiness Scale. The correlation between OSA with body mass index (BMI), homeostasis model assessment of insulin resistance (HOMA-IR) index, fat mass, and visceral fat showed a statistically significant positive ratio (p<0.05; F=3.871). The obtained results indicated that diet therapy and physical activity reduced the OSA risk by 78.72%.

Abstract
There is a growing body of literature on the effects of sleep disorders, in particular obstructive sleep apnoea (OSA), on ocular health, with consistent evidence of an increased risk of floppy eyelid syndrome, non-arteritic anterior ischaemic optic neuropathy, diabetic macular oedema, and other retinal vasculature changes in individuals with OSA. However, reports on OSA's associations with glaucoma, papilloedema, diabetic retinopathy, central serous chorioretinopathy, and keratoconus have been conflicting, while links between OSA and age-related macular degeneration have only been described fairly recently. Despite numerous suggestions that OSA treatment may reduce risk of these eye diseases, well-designed studies to support these claims are lacking. In particular, the ocular hypertensive effects of continuous positive airway pressure (CPAP) therapy for OSA requires further investigation into its potential impact on glaucoma risk and management. Reports of ocular surface complications secondary to leaking CPAP masks highlights the importance of ensuring good mask fit. Poor sleep habits have also been linked with increased myopia risk; however, the evidence on this association remains weak.

Abstract
Betel nut chewing is a popular habit in Taiwan, and it is associated with adverse metabolic effects. The aim of this study was to investigate correlations between betel nut chewing with metabolic syndrome (MetS) and its components in a longitudinal study using data from the Taiwan Biobank. A total of 121,423 participants were included in the baseline study, and 27,002 received follow-up examinations after a median of 4 years. The association between betel nut chewing and MetS was analyzed using multiple logistic regression after controlling for confounders. The baseline prevalence of MetS was 22.5%. Multivariable analysis showed that a history of chewing betel nut was significantly associated with baseline MetS (odds ratio (OR) = 1.629; 95% confidence interval (CI) = 1.535 to 1.730, p < 0.001) and five components of MetS in all participants. A long history of chewing betel nut (per 1 year; OR = 1.008; 95% CI = 1.004 to 1.013, p < 0.001) was associated with baseline MetS, abdominal obesity, hypertriglyceridemia and low high-density lipoprotein (HDL) cholesterol. In addition, high cumulative dose (per 1 year × frequency × daily score; OR = 1.001; 95% CI = 1.001−1.002; p < 0.001) was significantly associated with baseline MetS. At the end of the follow-up, a history of chewing betel nut (OR = 1.352; 95% CI = 1.134 to 1.612, p = 0.001) was significantly associated with MetS and its components including abdominal obesity, hypertriglyceridemia and low HDL-cholesterol in the participants without baseline MetS. In addition, a longer history of betel nut chewing was associated with MetS (per 1 year; OR = 1.021; 95% CI = 1.008 to 1.035, p = 0.002), abdominal obesity and hypertriglyceridemia at follow-up. However, cumulative dose (p = 0.882) was not significantly associated with follow-up MetS. Chewing betel nut and a long history of betel nut chewing were associated with baseline MetS and its components. In the participants without MetS at baseline, chewing betel nut and a long history of chewing betel nut were associated with the development of MetS after 4 years of follow-up. However, a cumulative dose of betel nut chewing was not associated with follow-up MetS. Betel nut chewing cessation programs are important to reduce the incidence of MetS in Taiwan.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES (1) To establish the prevalence of sleep disorders in women with PCOS. (2) To establish the association between sleep disturbance and cardiovascular risk factors in women with PCOS. METHODS The electronic databases PubMed and EMBASE were searched for observational studies of individuals with PCOS published in English from inception to 21 October 2021. The dichotomous outcome measure was presented as odds ratio (OR) and 95% confidence interval (CI). The mean difference (MD) in continuous variables was expressed for each study. RESULTS A total of 18 articles were included in this meta-analysis, with a total of 16,152 participants from nine different countries. Women with PCOS had a high prevalence of sleep disturbance (OR = 6.22; 95% CI: 2.77, 13.97; p < 0.001), higher PSQI scores (MD = 2.10; 95% CI: 0.29, 3.90; p = 0.02), and shorter duration of sleep (MD = -15.65 min; 95% CI: -27.18, -4.13; p = 0.008). We found that body mass index (BMI), systolic blood pressure (SBP), diastolic blood pressure (DBP), low-density lipoprotein cholesterol (LDL-c), fasting glucose, 2-h glucose, and waist circumference (WC) levels were significantly higher and high-density lipoprotein cholesterol (HDL-c) was significantly lower in PCOS with sleep disturbance than in PCOS without sleep disturbance. CONCLUSIONS The current study shows a high prevalence of sleep disturbance in women with PCOS and provides evidence of an association between cardiovascular risk factors and sleep disturbance among this population. Increased attention should be paid to sleep management in clinical guidelines for PCOS. UNLABELLED Systematic Review Registration: https://www.crd.york.ac.uk/PROSPERO/, identifier CRD42022298040.

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

Abstract
(a) Objective: Obstructive sleep apnea syndrome (OSAS) is typically diagnosed through polysomnography (PSG). However, PSG incurs high medical costs. This study developed new models for screening the risk of moderate-to-severe OSAS (apnea-hypopnea index, AHI ≥15) and severe OSAS (AHI ≥30) in various age groups and sexes by using anthropometric features in the Taiwan population.(b) Participants: Data were derived from 10,391 northern Taiwan patients who underwent PSG.(c) Methods: Patients' characteristics - namely age, sex, body mass index (BMI), neck circumference, and waist circumference - was obtained. To develop an age- and sex-independent model, various approaches - namely logistic regression, k-nearest neighbor, naive Bayes, random forest (RF), and support vector machine - were trained for four groups based on sex and age (men or women; aged <50 or ≥50 years). Dataset was separated independently (training:70%; validation: 10%; testing: 20%) and Cross-validated grid search was applied for model optimization. Models demonstrating the highest overall accuracy in validation outcomes for the four groups were used to predict the testing dataset.(d) Results: The RF models showed the highest overall accuracy. BMI was the most influential parameter in both types of OSAS severity screening models.(e) Conclusion: The established models can be applied to screen OSAS risk in the Taiwan population and those with similar craniofacial features.

Abstract
CONTEXT Sleep plays important roles in metabolic and reproductive function, and polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS) is associated with sleep disturbances, including increased prevalence of obstructive sleep apnea. OBJECTIVE We sought to evaluate sleep parameters in infertile women with PCOS compared with women with unexplained infertility (UI) and identify risk factors for disturbed sleep. METHODS At private and academic ambulatory gynecology and infertility practices, we evaluated a prospective cohort of women diagnosed with PCOS or UI from 2 randomized clinical trials. We included 1603 infertile women enrolled in 2 concurrent randomized clinical trials. The main outcome measures were self-reported sleep measures. RESULTS Sleep duration <6 hours (6.1% vs 2.7%; P < .001), habitual snoring (37.8% vs 19.0%; P < .001), and clinical sleepiness (12.0% vs 8.6%; P < .026) were more common in women with PCOS than those with UI. After adjusting for covariates, PCOS and elevated fasting insulin were associated (P = .010) with clinical symptoms of obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) diagnosis, whereas PCOS, elevated insulin (P = .003), WC >88 cm (P = .003), and current smoking (P = .012) were associated with habitual snoring. Clinical depression score (P < .001) and PCOS diagnosis (P = .002) were associated with perceived daytime sleepiness. Short sleep duration and clinical symptoms of OSA were not associated with conception and live birth rates. CONCLUSION Infertile women with PCOS more commonly report sleep disturbances than those with UI. Markers of insulin resistance are associated with previous diagnosis of OSA, habitual snoring, and short sleep duration. The presence of clinical symptoms of OSA or short sleep duration does not affect fertility treatment response.

Abstract
Rationale: Evidence suggests that continuous positive airway pressure (CPAP) treatment promotes weight gain in patients with obstructive sleep apnea (OSA). It is unclear whether weight gain is influenced by CPAP adherence or comorbid disorders. Objectives: To examine the CPAP effects on body mass index (BMI) and local adiposity and the potential moderators of CPAP effects on BMI in patients with OSA. Methods: We searched PubMed/Medline, Embase, and Cochrane through December 2019. Randomized controlled trials of CPAP versus control treatment with ⩾4 weeks' treatment were included. Results: A total of 39 randomized controlled trials with 6,954 subjects were included. In intention-to-treat analysis, the BMI increased significantly after CPAP treatment compared with control treatment (weighted mean difference [WMD], 0.148 kg/m2; 95% confidence interval, 0.04-0.26; P = 0.001). In studies demonstrating an increase in the BMI, waist and neck circumferences were also significantly increased. Subgroup analyses revealed that an increased BMI was attributable to CPAP use of ⩽5 h/night (WMD, 0.231) but was not attributable to CPAP use of >5 h/night (WMD, 0.001; between-group P value = 0.049). Furthermore, the BMI increased significantly in patients without cardiovascular disease (CVD; WMD, 0.200), whereas it decreased significantly in those with CVD at baseline (WMD, -0.188; between-group P value < 0.001). Moreover, the BMI increased significantly in patients with dysglycemia (WMD, 0.499) but did not increase in those without dysglycemia at baseline (WMD, 0.100; between-group P value = 0.032). Meta-regression confirmed the subgroup findings. Conclusions: The BMI increased significantly in patients with OSA after CPAP treatment, especially in those with CPAP use of ⩽5 h/night, without CVD and/or with dysglycemia at baseline. CPAP use of at least 5 h/night seems to be necessary in mitigating the risk for weight gain in patients with OSA.

Abstract
Obstructive sleep apnoea (OSA) is a very common disease with a prevalence that ranges from 1% to 6% in children. It is characterized by intermittent partial or complete occlusion of the upper airway during sleep, leading to recurrent arousals and disturbed sleep architecture, to neurocognitive disorders and alterations in homeostatic gas exchange. Cardiovascular complications may develop in children with OSA through various mechanisms including activation and dysregulation of the sympathetic nervous system, induction of pro-inflammatory and pro-oxidant status and increased risk of systemic hypertension. As the deleterious effects of OSA on the cardio-vascular system may start early in life, in this brief review we focused our attention both on early and late cardiological changes induced by apnoeic events in the paediatric population, by reviewing recent findings in the literature.

Abstract
Purpose: Sleep disturbance is one of the major complaints among patients with diabetes. The status of diabetes control and associated complications may contribute to sleep disturbance. This study explored night time sleep and excessive daytime sleepiness in adults with type 2 diabetes and examined the association of diabetes control and associated complications on their sleep quality. Methods: A retrospective cohort study design was used. Type 2 diabetic patients (87 females and 79 males, aged 63.1 ± 10.5 years) were recruited from the outpatient clinics of the endocrine department. Sleep quality was assessed by the Pittsburg Sleep Quality Index and the Epworth Sleepiness Scale. Diabetes control and complications were obtained by retrospectively reviewing patients' medical records over 1 year prior to study enrollment. Results: 72.3% of recruited patients had poor glycemic control, and 71.1% had at least one diabetic complication. 56.0% of patients experienced poor sleep quality, and 24.1% had excessive daytime sleepiness. Those who were female (OR = 3.45) and who had ophthalmological problems (OR = 3.17) were associated with poor night time sleep quality, but if they did exercise to the point of sweating (OR = 0.48) reduced the risk of poor sleep quality. Furthermore, poor sleep quality (OR = 4.35) and having nephropathy (OR = 3.78) were associated with a higher risk of excessive daytime sleepiness. Conclusions: Sex, ophthalmological problems, nephropathy, and no exercise to the point of sweating are associated with sleep problems in patients with type 2 diabetes. Both lifestyle behaviors and diabetic complications affect sleep disturbances in patients with diabetes.

Oxidative Stress and Inflammation Biomarker Expression in Obstructive Sleep Apnea Patients. J Clin Med 2021; 10:jcm10020277.

Abstract
Obstructive Sleep Apnea Syndrome (OSAS) is a respiratory sleep disorder characterised by repeated episodes of partial or complete obstruction of the upper airway during the night. This obstruction usually occurs with a reduction (hypopnea) or complete cessation (apnea) of the airflow in the upper airways with the persistence of thoracic-diaphragmatic respiratory movements. During the hypopnea/apnea events, poor alveolar ventilation reduces the oxygen saturation in the arterial blood (SaO2) and a gradual increase in the partial arterial pressure of carbon dioxide (PaCO2). The direct consequence of the intermittent hypoxia is an oxidative imbalance, with reactive oxygen species production and the inflammatory cascade’s activation with pro and anti-inflammatory cytokines growth. Tumour necrosis factors, inflammatory cytokines (IL2, IL4, IL6), lipid peroxidation, and cell-free DNA have been found to increase in OSAS patients. However, even though different risk-related markers have been described and analysed in the literature, it has not yet been clarified whether specified inflammatory bio-markers better correlates with OSAS diagnosis and its clinical evolution/comorbidities. We perform a scientific literature review to discuss inflammatory and oxidative stress biomarkers currently tested in OSAS patients and their correlation with the disease’s severity and treatment.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE Hypertriglyceridemic waist (HTGW) phenotype is an independent risk factor for metabolic disorders. Although obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) is associated with metabolic disorders, it is unclear whether there is an association between HTGW phenotype and OSA. METHODS We enrolled consecutive participants presenting to a sleep center in Shanghai, China. Full-night polysomnography was performed, and serum triglyceride (TG) levels and waist circumference (WC) were calculated. HTGW phenotype was defined as increased WC (men > 90 cm, women > 80 cm) and elevated TG levels (> 1.7 mmol/L). Participants were classified into four groups: normal TG with normal WC (NTNW); normal TG with increased WC (NTGW); elevated TG with normal WC (HTNW); and elevated TG with enlarged WC, namely HTGW. The relationships between HTGW phenotypes and OSA were assessed using binary (apnea hypopnea index, [AHI]≥5/hr) and multinomial logistic regression analyses (clinical AHI severity categories). RESULTS We included 3190 participants in this cross-sectional study. Compared to the NTNW phenotype, participants with NTGW and HTGW phenotypes had the significantly higher risk of OSA (AHI ≥5/hr, odds ratio [OR] = 2.51, 95% confidence interval [CI] = 1.91-3.31; OR = 3.76, 95% CI = 2.67-5.31, respectively), after adjustment for confounders. In subgroup analyses categorised by age, sex, and BMI, the aforementioned associations remained significant. The association between the NTGW, HTGW phenotype and OSA risk remained significant across the OSA severity groups. Multinomial logistic regression also revealed that the mild (OR = 1.63, 95% CI = 1.07-2.50), moderate (OR = 1.875, 95% CI = 1.22-2.88), and severe OSA (OR = 3.18, 95% CI = 2.14-4.73) were associated with HTGW phenotype. CONCLUSION Both NTGW and HTGW phenotype were positively associated with OSA risk in all subgroups. Further longitudinal follow-up studies are needed to determine the causal link and prognostic role of these metabolic factors.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE Currently, low back disorder (LBD) research focuses primarily on mechanical variables to assess whether task demands exceed tissue capacity; however, it is important to assess how other nonmechanical variables affect tissue capacity in a time-dependent manner. The current investigation sought to explore physiological responses to an acute lifting task, as lifting has been implicated as a risk factor in the development of LBDs. METHODS Twelve participants completed two sessions of 2 h of repetitive symmetrical lifting from floor to knuckle height under two conditions, matched for total external work (Low Force High Repetition (LFHR) and High Force Low Repetition (HFLR)). Full-body kinematics and ground reaction forces were measured throughout. Interleukin 6 (IL-6) and interleukin 8 (IL-8), markers of systemic inflammation, were assessed from blood sampling at Baseline, 0, 4 and 24 h post-lifting on both days. Dual x-ray absorptiometry (DEXA) scans were also performed on participants to quantify body composition. RESULTS Significant load (HFLR and LFHR) * time (Baseline, 0, 4, 24 h) interaction effects were found for both IL-6 and IL-8, where the LFHR condition resulted in greater responses at 0 and 4 h post-lifting. CONCLUSIONS This was the first study of its kind to concurrently measure peak and cumulative spinal moments and their relationship to systemic inflammation in both sexes, while strictly controlling for confounding variables (e.g. physical activity, caloric intake, body composition, etc.). Greater levels of IL-6 and IL-8 were seen in the LFHR condition, likely due to the greater cumulative spinal moments in this condition.

Abstract
Purpose Colorectal cancer (CRC) is one of the common causes of cancer death worldwide. Obstructive sleep apnea syndrome (OSAS), sharing many risk factors in common with CRC, is prevalent among CRC patients. OSAS may promote the CRC development independently but the mechanism is still unknown. Intermittent hypoxia (IH) is one of the characteristics of OSAS, and hypoxia may influence the genes associated with CRC. Intestinal microbiota plays important role in CRC carcinogenesis, and OSAS patients have been shown to have intestinal microbiota dysbiosis. We hypothesized that IH and intestinal microbiota dysbiosis may be involved for CRC in patients with OSAS. Methods We established precancerous cell models of CRC with Immorto-Min colonic epithelial (IMCE) cells. First, the cells were exposed to IH in a special chamber for 4 h, 8 h, and 12 h. Feces from 6 patients with OSAS and 6 healthy controls were collected and made into sterile fecal fluid for incubation with IMCE cells for 12 h. The cells were then exposed to IH for 4 h, 8 h, and 12 h. After IH exposure, the expressions of genes and inflammation cytokines associated with CRC, such as β-catenin, STAT3, HIF-1α, IL-6, TNF-α, c-myc, and cyclinD1, were tested. Results IH activated the expression of HIF-1α and STAT3 both in mRNA and protein level (HIF-1α: P = 0.015 for mRNA level, P = 0.027 for protein level; STAT3: P = 0.023 for mRNA level, P = 0.023 for protein level), and promoted p-STAT3 shifting to the nucleus (P = 0.023). The mRNA of β-catenin (P = 0.022) and cyclinD1 (P = 0.023) was elevated, but there was no change for the β-catenin protein in the nucleus. Gut microbiota of OSAS patients promoted the expression of STAT3 (protein level: 0 h: P = 0.037; 4 h: P = 0.046; 8 h: P = 0.049; 12 h: P = 0.037), promoted p-STAT3 (4 h: P = 0.049; 8 h: P = 0.046; 12 h: P = 0.046) shifting to the nucleus, and also elevated the expression of IL-6 and TNF-α in mRNA level at 4 h (IL-6: P = 0.037, TNF-α: P = 0.037) and 8 h (IL-6: P = 0.037, TNF-α: P = 0.037). The protein of β-catenin in the nucleus was not affected by IH and gut microbiota from OSAS. Conclusions Our study demonstrated that IH and gut microbiota of patients with OSAS activated HIF-1α expression and STAT3 pathway in IMCE cells, with no influence on β-catenin pathway, which suggested that IH, STAT3 pathway, chronic inflammation, and intestinal microbiota dysbiosis may be involved in CRC carcinogenesis correlated with OSAS These findings must be interpreted cautiously and further research is necessary to clarify the causative steps in CRC development.

Abstract
Obstructive sleep apnea hypopnea syndrome (OSAHS) is closely related to obesity and can cause multiple organs and systems damage. Metabolic bariatric surgery (MBS) is presently the only long-term effective treatment and an important strategy for severely obese population, which also provides a novel therapeutic for obese patients with OSAHS, especially in patients with poor continuous positive air pressure (CPAP) adherence. To date, the resolution mechanism of OSAHS in obese patients after MBS has not been fully clarified. In addition, there is no specific metabolic bariatric surgical treatment of OSAHS guidelines. Therefore, this review provides an update on the relationship between OSAHS and MBS for highlighting the importance of weight loss strategies for obese patients with OSAHS.

Abstract
STUDY OBJECTIVES Although cognitive dysfunction is a recognized consequence of untreated obstructive sleep apnea (OSA), the deficit pattern is heterogeneous. Understanding this heterogeneity may identify those at risk of cognitive deficits and guide intervention strategies. To facilitate understanding, we examined whether distinct profiles of neuropsychological performance were present in OSA and, if so, how they are related to other OSA features. METHODS We studied sleep clinic (n = 121) and community (n = 398) samples with moderate-severe OSA (apnea-hypopnea index ≥ 15 events/h). Attention and memory were assessed using the Cognitive Drug Research system. Sleep was assessed using polysomnography in the clinic sample and dual channel (flow, oximetry) portable monitoring in the community sample. Latent profile analysis was used to determine structure of cognitive clusters. Discriminant function analysis was used to examine associations between nocturnal and diurnal features of OSA and profile membership. RESULTS Both samples were best characterized by a 3-profile solution: (1) strong thinkers (performed well across most domains and showed greater cognitive reserve); (2) inattentive fast thinkers (strong processing speed but poor ability to maintain attention); and (3) accurate slow thinkers (strengths in maintaining attention but poor processing speed). Profile membership was associated with mean overnight oxygen saturation and cognitive reserve in the clinic sample and the presence of cardiovascular disease and/or diabetes in the community sample. CONCLUSIONS These findings help explain the diversity of outcomes in previous studies of cognitive dysfunction in OSA by demonstrating that individual differences in cognitive reserve, nocturnal oxygen saturation, and comorbidities affect how cognition is impacted by OSA.

Impact of CPAP treatment for obstructive sleep apnea on visceral adipose tissue: a meta-analysis of randomized controlled trials. Sleep Breath 2020; 25:555-562. [PMID: 32857319 DOI: 10.1007/s11325-020-02181-3] [Citation(s) in RCA: 2] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.5] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 05/22/2020] [Revised: 08/15/2020] [Accepted: 08/21/2020] [Indexed: 10/23/2022]
Abstract
BACKGROUND It is still controversial if the continuous positive airway pressure (CPAP) treatment for patients with obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) can markedly influence an effect on visceral adipose tissue (VAT). The current study aimed to assess the efficacy of CPAP interventions in reducing VAT in OSA patients. METHODS The Web of Science, PubMed, Embase, and Cochrane Library (up to December, 2019) were searched for randomized trials that assessed the effect of CPAP therapy in decreasing VAT in OSA patients. Information on the study, pre- and post-CPAP treatment of VAT, and patient characteristics were extracted for analysis. The standardized mean difference (SMD) was applied to measure the summary estimates. The analysis was conducted with STATA 13.0 and RevMan v.5.3. RESULTS Five studies (6 cohorts) that involved 169 patients were enrolled in the meta-analysis. There was no significant change of VAT in patients with OSA before and after CPAP treatment (SMD = - 0.00, 95% CI = - 0.21 to 0.21, z = 0.01, p = 0.99). Subgroup analyses further demonstrated that the results were not influenced by CPAP therapy duration, patient age, sample size, or baseline body mass index. CONCLUSIONS Among the patients with OSA, our meta-analysis revealed that treatment with CPAP does not significantly lead to a reduction of VAT. High-quality randomized controlled trials may provide further clarifying information.

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

Abstract
Objective The consequences of sleep deprivation in type 1 diabetes (T1D) patients are poorly understood. Our aim was to determine how sleep disorders influence lipid profile and insulin sensitivity in T1D patients. Materials and methods This was a cross-sectional study at a public university hospital. Demographic information and medical histories were obtained during regular scheduled visit of T1D patients to the outpatient clinic. Insulin sensitivity was obtained using the estimated glucose disposal rate (eGDR) formula. Sleep quality was assessed using the Pittsburgh Sleep Quality Index, Epworth Sleepiness Scale and Berlin Questionnaire. Results The adult participants (n = 66, 62% women) had a median age of 28.0 years (interquartile range 21.8-33.0). Six patients (9%) had metabolic syndrome according to the International Diabetes Federation criteria. Thirty patients (46%) were considered poor sleepers according to the Pittsburgh Sleep Quality Index. The LDL-c and total cholesterol levels of poor sleepers were higher than those of good sleepers (103 v. 81; p = 0.003 and 178.0 v. 159.5 mg/dL; p = 0.009, respectively). Three patients (4%) were at high risk of obstructive sleep apnea syndrome (OSAS) according to the Berlin Questionnaire. The eGDR was lower in the group of patients with high probability of having OSAS (6.0 v. 9.1 mg.kg-1.min-1;p = .03). Conclusions Poor subjective quality of sleep and higher risk of OSAS were correlated with a worsened lipid profile and decreased insulin sensitivity, respectively. Therefore, T1D patients with sleep disturbances might have an increased cardiovascular risk in the future.

Abstract
Small studies in Western populations report a high prevalence of obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) in adults with Down syndrome. To date, ethnic differences have not been explored. A questionnaire sent to 2,752 adults with Down syndrome aged ≥16 years in Scotland and Japan (789 valid responses) estimated OSA prevalence based on reported symptoms. Symptoms were common in both countries, with snoring (p = 0.001) and arousals (p = 0.04) more prevalent in Japan. Estimated OSA prevalence in adults with Down syndrome was similar in the two countries, and raised in comparison with the general adult population (19.6% in Scotland and 14.3% in Japan; p = 0.08), though BMI was a confounder. Identification and treatment of OSA is recommended in adults with Down syndrome, regardless of ethnicity.

Abstract
BACKGROUND AND AIMS Obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) is a global disease that is a manifestation of metabolic syndrome. Epicardial adipose tissue (EAT), a special type of visceral adipose tissue, has been proposed to be an independent predictor of visceral adiposity. Both OSA and EAT have a close association with diabetes and coronary artery disease. Whether EAT thickness is associated with OSA is controversial. METHODS AND RESULTS Several databases were searched from their inception to October 13, 2019. We estimated the summarized weighted mean difference (WMD) with 95% confidence intervals (CIs) for EAT thickness in the OSA and non-OSA groups. Then, we conducted a meta-analysis to evaluate the association between EAT thickness and OSA. The relationship between EAT thickness and OSA severity was also assessed. Nine studies with a total of 1178 participants were included. Globally, patients with OSA had a higher EAT thickness than patients without OSA (WMD = 0.95, 95% CI: 0.73-1.16, P < 0.001). Compared to the non-OSA patients, those with mild, moderate, and severe OSA had a progressively higher EAT thickness (WMD = 0.62, 95% CI: 0.41-0.83; WMD = 0.83, 95% CI: 0.50-1.15; and WMD = 1.06, 95% CI: 0.70-1.43, respectively; all P < 0.001). CONCLUSION EAT thickness was shown to be higher in patients with OSA than in patients with non-OSA measured by echocardiography. The increase in the EAT thickness was associated with OSA severity.

Association of visceral adiposity and systemic inflammation with sleep disordered breathing in normal weight, never obese adolescents. Sleep Med 2020; 69:103-108.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE/BACKGROUND While obesity is a known risk factor for sleep disordered breathing (SDB), a large proportion of children with SDB are not overweight as per body mass index percentile (BMI%) criteria. This study aimed to examine whether premorbid or concurrent adiposity phenotypes and inflammation are associated with SDB in normal weight youth. PATIENTS/METHODS A total of 242 persistently non-overweight (BMI%<85) subjects from the Penn State Child Cohort (PSCC, N = 421, 5-12 y at baseline and 12-23 y at follow-up), were studied. The apnea/hypopnea index (AHI) was ascertained via polysomnography (PSG) at both time points. At follow-up, a dual-energy X-ray absorptiometry (DXA) scan assessed android and gynoid distribution and subcutaneous (SAT) and visceral (VAT) adiposity composition, while a fasting blood draw was assayed for C-reactive protein (CRP) and interleukin-6 (IL-6) levels. Multivariable linear regression models with AHI at follow-up as primary outcome were adjusted for sex, race, adenotonsillectomy, age and AHI at baseline. RESULTS AND CONCLUSIONS Increased waist circumference (β = 0.227, p = 0.001) at baseline, but not BMI%, neck or hip circumference, was significantly associated with a higher AHI at follow-up. VAT (β = 0.309, p < 0.001), IL-6 (β = 0.243, p < 0.001), SAT (β = 0.235, p = 0.013), CRP (β = 0.221, p = 0.001), and an android distribution (β = 0.196, p = 0.003) at follow-up were significantly associated with a higher AHI at follow-up. Childhood central adiposity predicts SDB in adolescence, even in individuals who have never been overweight since childhood as per BMI criteria. Visceral adiposity and inflammation are concurrent to adolescent SDB, which supports the clinical utility of these biomarkers in predicting its associated cardiometabolic risk.

Abstract
Semen Ziziphus jujube (SZJ) has been widely consumed because it is recognized as edible in China to treat insomnia disorders. However, the underlying mechanisms and potential therapeutic targets remain obscure. SZJ-I and SZJ-II with a saponin content of 52.10% and 75.20%, respectively, were extracted from SZJ. LC-MS analysis presented quite different chemical profiles of SZJ-I and SZJ-II. Mice with p-chlorophenylalanine (PCPA)-induced insomnia were used to comparatively and systematically test the sedative-hypnotic activities of SZJ-I and SZJ-II. In vivo behavioral tests revealed that SZJ-I and SZJ-II significantly shortened the immobility time and potentiated sodium pentobarbital-induced sleep. SZJ-II with a higher saponin content showed greater potency than SZJ-I. SZJ-I and SZJ-II also protected against PCPA-triggered neuropathological damages in the brain. Concentrations of 5-hydroxytryptamine (5-HT), dopamine (DA), noradrenaline (NE), glutamate (Glu), interleukin-6 (IL-6), interleukin-1β (IL-1β), nitric oxide (NO) and prostaglandin D2 (PGD2) in plasma were significantly affected by SZJ-I and SZJ-II application. SZJ-I and SZJ-II also exhibited differential modulation of 5-hydroxytryptamine 1A (5-HT1A), 5-hydroxytryptamine 2A (5-HT2A), GABAA receptor α2 (GABAARα2), GABAA receptor α3 (GABAARα3), glutamic acid decarboxylase (GAD) 65/67, IL-6 and IL-1β expression in the hypothalamus and hippocampus. SZJ-I and SZJ-II might exert excellent sedative-hypnotic effects through multiple mechanisms that worked simultaneously. SZJ-I and especially SZJ-II are promising candidates for relieving insomnia.
