Abstract
BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVE Clinical and population-based studies have demonstrated a strong association between obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) and cardiovascular disease (CVD). Anatomical abnormalities of the craniofacial region and upper airway are important risk factors for OSA. The objective of this study was to investigate the association of craniofacial and upper airway morphology with CVD risk biomarkers. METHODS One hundred and sixty-nine male patients with OSA underwent in-laboratory polysomnography (PSG) and upper airway computed tomography (CT) scanning. Ten-year Framingham CVD risk score (FRS) was calculated and categorized into low- and moderate-to-high-risk groups. N-terminal pro B-type natriuretic peptide (NT-proBNP) was measured as a biomarker of increased myocardial wall stress. RESULTS Compared to the low-risk group, total sleep time (TST), the proportion of N3 (N3%) and mean oxygen saturation (SpO2mean) were lower, while the arousal index of non-rapid eye movement (NREM) sleep, apnea index (AI) of NREM sleep, apnea hypopnea index (AHI) of NREM sleep, oxygen desaturation index (ODI) and percentage of total sleep time spent with oxyhemoglobin saturation below 90% (TST90) were higher in the moderate-to-high risk group. The corrected upper airway length (UAL), ANB angle and gonion-gnathion-hyoid angle were larger for subjects in the moderate-to-high risk group than those in the low-risk group. In multiple regression analysis, TST, AINREM and adjusted UAL were independently associated with moderate-to-high CVD risk. Plasma NT-proBNP levels were higher in patients in the moderate- to high-risk group, and among the PSG and CT scan parameters, only SPO2mean was marginally associated with NT-proBNP (r=0.183, P=0.054). CONCLUSION Craniofacial and upper airway features may contain valid cues about CVD risk, and sleep duration, obstructive event type and occurrence phase may be closely related to CVD risk for patients with OSA.

Oral Surg Oral Med Oral Pathol Oral Radiol 2016; 123:129-136.e3.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE The aim of the present study is to compare radiographic measurements of the upper airway (UA) in young adult patients with different levels of risk status for obstructive sleep apnea syndrome. STUDY DESIGN The study included 50 patients between 18 and 30 years of age who were referred for dental examination and evaluation of impacted third molars. Case record forms, including habit history, along with the Berlin Questionnaire and the Epworth Sleepiness Scale, were completed by the patients and their relatives. According to the answers, 25 low-risk patients and 25 high-risk patients were selected. Cephalometric radiographs and cone beam computed radiography images were obtained for radiographic analysis when the patients were admitted into the study. RESULTS There were significant differences in body mass index, neck circumference measurements, Epworth score, and smoking status between risk groups. There were significant differences for UA measurements on radiographic evaluation. Body mass index (BMI) was found to be correlated positively with neck circumference and Epworth scores and negatively with UA measurements for all patients. Velopharyngeal measurements showed the highest correlation with Epworth scores, BMI, and neck circumference. CONCLUSIONS The radiographic findings correlated with the survey results. Our data suggest that radiographic measurements of UA may be used as a predictor of risk for obstructive sleep apnea syndrome in a young population.
