Abstract
This study aims to identify the determinants associated with physical activity (PA) behavior in newly diagnosed obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) patients by applying the Health Action Process Approach (HAPA) with a longitudinal design. Anthropometric and clinical (OSA severity, subjective somnolence, use of continuous positive airway pressure (CPAP)) variables, the determinants of physical activity specified in the HAPA (motivational self-efficacy, outcome expectancies, risk perception, intention, maintenance self-efficacy, action planning, coping planning, social support), as well as physical activity behavior were assessed using a longitudinal (T1 and T2) design in a sample of 57 OSA patients in routine care. Applying regression analyses, regarding the motivation phase, the amount of explained variance in intention was 77% and 39% of the variance in physical activity. In the motivational phase, motivational self-efficacy, risk perception and outcome expectancies were associated with intention. In the volitional phase, physical activity at T1 and social support (family) were related with physical activity at T2. In conclusion, the assumptions of HAPA were partially found in the context of newly diagnosed OSA patients. This study provided additional evidence regarding the role of motivational self-efficacy, outcome expectancies and risk perception during motivational phase, and highlighted the important role of social support from the family in the PA in this population.

Effects of high-intensity interval training on subjective sleep quality and daytime sleepiness in patients with obstructive sleep apnea: A secondary analysis from a randomized controlled trial. Sleep Med 2024; 121:184-188. [PMID: 39002324 DOI: 10.1016/j.sleep.2024.07.006] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 05/04/2024] [Revised: 07/05/2024] [Accepted: 07/07/2024] [Indexed: 07/15/2024]
Abstract
This study aimed to verify the effect of 12 weeks of HIIT on the perceived sleep quality and excessive daytime sleepiness in patients with obstructive sleep apnea (OSA). For this, a secondary analysis of a randomized controlled trial, including 36 adults with moderate-severe OSA (19 males; 52.2 ± 9.8 years; body mass index = 34.2 ± 5.8; AHI = 42.0 ± 22.9 e/h) was performed. Participants were randomly assigned to HIIT [5 periods of 4 min of walking or running on a treadmill at 90-95 % of maximum heart rate (HRmax) interspersed with 3 min of walking at 50-55 % of HRmax performed three times per week for 12 weeks] or a control group (CG; stretching exercises performed two times per week for 12 weeks). Specific domains of subjective sleep quality and EDS were assessed at baseline and post 12 weeks. Generalized estimated equation were used to verify between groups and times differences. There were no group × time interactions for the domains sleep duration (0.416), sleep efficiency (0.198), sleep disturbance (0.523), and sleep medications (0.915). However, significant group × time interactions were observed for global sleep score (0.022), and for the domains sleep quality (0.001), sleep latency (0.029), and daytime dysfunction (0.012). In addition, there was a significant group × time interaction for EDS (HIIT = -3.4 ± 0.9; CG change = -1.0 ± 1.0; p = 0.023). Thus, in patients with OSA, 12 weeks of HIIT improves perceived sleep quality and daytime sleepiness.

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
Exercise improves chronic inflammation and is recommended as a first-line medical or behavioral treatment for OSA with obesity. We examined whether the effects of an exercise program on inflammatory blood markers differed according to severity of OSA among obese adults. Overweight (BMI > 27 kg/m2) adults were evaluated for OSA using overnight polysomnography and subsequently classified as exhibiting no-to-mild OSA (AHI < 15 events/hour) or moderate-to-severe OSA (AHI ≥ 15 events/hour). Cardiorespiratory fitness, body composition assessed by DXA, fasting metabolic parameters and adipokines (i.e., glucose, insulin, leptin and adioponectin), and multiple markers of inflammation (i.e., CRP, IL-4, IL-8 and TNF-α) were measured at baseline (Pre) and following a 6-week (3 days per week) comprehensive exercise program (Post). Ten adults (Age: 48 ± 8 years; W:6; M:4) with no/mild OSA and 12 adults (Age: 54 ± 8 years; W:5; M:7) with moderate/severe OSA completed all aspects of the trial. No significant differences in age, cardiorespiratory fitness, body composition, fasting metabolic parameters and most inflammatory markers were observed between groups at baseline. Exercise training decreased total fat mass (Pre: 41,167 ± 13,315 g; Post: 40,311 ± 12,657 g; p = 0.008), leptin (Pre: 26.7 ± 29.6 pg/ml; Post: 22.7 ± 19.4 pg/ml; p = 0.028) and adiponectin (Pre: 16.6 ± 10.9 µg/ml; Post: 11.0 ± 10.6 µg/ml; p = 0.004) in those with moderate/severe OSA. Among those with no/mild OSA, exercise training resulted in a decrease in total fat mass (Pre = 37,332 ± 20,258 g; Post: 37,068 ± 18,268 g, p = 0.037). These data suggest that while 6 weeks of exercise reduced adipokines in those with moderate-to-severe OSA, it was not sufficient to improve common markers of inflammation among overweight adults with OSA.

Front Public Health 2024; 12:1425060. [PMID: 38975351 PMCID: PMC11224541 DOI: 10.3389/fpubh.2024.1425060] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 04/29/2024] [Accepted: 06/11/2024] [Indexed: 07/09/2024] Open
Abstract
Background Previous observational studies have shown a correlation between leisure sedentary behaviors (LSB) and physical activity (PA) with the incidence of obstructive sleep apnea (OSA). However, the causal associations remain unknown. Therefore, our study used bidirectional two-sample Mendelian randomization (MR) to identify potential causal relationships between LSB/PA and OSA. Methods We sourced genetic variation data for LSB and PA from the UK Biobank, while data on OSA were collected from the FinnGen study. The primary analysis method employed was the inverse variance weighted (IVW) approach, complemented by the weighted median and MR-Egger methods. For sensitivity analyses, we conducted Cochran's Q test, the MR-Egger intercept test, the MR-PRESSO global test, and the leave-one-out analysis. Results IVW analyses showed that genetically predicted leisure television watching (odds ratio [OR] = 1.38, 95% confidence interval [CI] = 1.09-1.75, p = 0.007) and computer use (OR = 1.48, 95% CI = 1.15-1.92, p = 0.002) significantly increased the risk of OSA. Conversely, self-reported vigorous physical activity (VPA) (OR = 0.33, 95% CI = 0.11-0.98, p = 0.046) may reduce the risk of OSA. No causal effects on OSA risk were observed for driving or self-reported moderate-to-vigorous physical activity. Furthermore, the reverse MR analysis indicated no significant causal relationship between OSA and any LSB/PA phenotype. Sensitivity tests showed no significant heterogeneity or horizontal pleiotropy. Conclusion This study suggests that leisurely television watching and computer use are risk factors for OSA, while VPA may be a protective factor. Additionally, OSA does not affect PA or LSB levels. We recommend reducing sedentary activities, particularly television watching and computer use, and prioritizing VPA to reduce the risk of OSA. Further research in diverse populations and settings is needed to validate these findings.

Abstract
Insomnia treatment among individuals with comorbid insomnia and obstructive sleep apnea is suboptimal. In a pilot randomized controlled trial, 19 individuals with comorbid insomnia and obstructive sleep apnea were allocated to one of two arms: EX + EX, consisting of two 8-week phases of exercise training (EX), or RE + CBTiEX, encompassing 8 weeks of relaxation training (RE) followed by 8 weeks of combined cognitive-behavioral therapy and exercise (CBTiEX). Outcomes included Insomnia Severity Index (ISI), polysomnography, and cardiorespiratory fitness measures. A mixed-model analysis of variance revealed a Group × Time interaction on peak oxygen consumption change, F(1, 14) = 10.1, p = .007, and EX increased peak oxygen consumption (p = .03, g' = -0.41) and reduced ISI (p = .001, g' = 0.82) compared with RE (p = .49, g = 0.16) post-8 weeks. Post-16 weeks, there was a significant Group × Time interaction (p = .014) driven by RE + CBTiEX yielding a larger improvement in ISI (p = .023, g' = 1.48) than EX + EX (p = .88, g' < 0.1). Objective sleep was unchanged. This study showed promising effects of regular EX alone and combined with cognitive-behavioral therapy for insomnia on ISI in comorbid insomnia and obstructive sleep apnea.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES Exercise is an effective intervention for obstructive sleep apnea (OSA). However, the effects of exercise on objective sleep architecture in patients with OSA remain unknown. This meta-analysis aimed to collect data from randomized controlled trials of exercise interventions in patients with OSA, with a specific focus on objective sleep parameters derived from polysomnography. METHODS Randomized control trials that targeted patients with OSA aged >18 years, measured sleep using polysomnography after exercise programs, and reported the proportion of sleep stages were included for meta-analysis. Bias was assessed using the revised Cochrane risk-of-bias tool and funnel plots. The random effects model was applied. RESULTS Six studies with a total of 236 patients were included in the meta-analysis. There were no significant differences in the total sleep time (TST), sleep efficiency, sleep onset latency, stage N1 sleep, or rapid eye movement sleep between the exercise and control groups. Participation in an exercise program lasting >12 weeks significantly decreased stage N2 and increased stage N3 sleep as observed in the subgroup analysis. Although this tendency did not reach statistical significance in the total-group analysis, it was significant after excluding the possible confounding effects of heart disease. CONCLUSIONS The exercise program decreased N2 and increased N3 proportions over the TST among patients with OSA, which may correspond to subjective sleep quality. The beneficial effects were significant when the program lasted >12 weeks and after excluding the confounding effects of heart disease. Exercise program duration should be considered when providing clinical advice.

Effect of lateral position on rostral fluid shift and relationship to severity of Cheyne-Stokes respiration in heart failure patients. Sleep Breath 2024; 28:789-796. [PMID: 38102508 DOI: 10.1007/s11325-023-02969-z] [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: 08/16/2023] [Revised: 12/04/2023] [Accepted: 12/06/2023] [Indexed: 12/17/2023]
Abstract
PURPOSE Lateral sleep position has a significant beneficial effect on the severity of Cheyne-Stokes respiration with central sleep apnea (CSR-CSA) in patients with heart failure (HF). We hypothesized that a reduction in rostral fluid shift from the legs in this position compared with the supine position may contribute to this effect. METHODS In patients with CSR-CSA and an apnea-hypopnea index (AHI) ≥ 15/h (by standard polysomnography), uncalibrated leg fluid volume was measured in the supine, left lateral decubitus, and right lateral decubitus positions (in-laboratory assessment). The correlation between postural changes in fluid volume and corresponding changes in AHI was evaluated. Since there was no difference in both leg fluid volume and AHI between the right and left positions, measurements in these two conditions were combined into a single lateral position. RESULTS In 18 patients with CSR-CSA, leg fluid volume increased by 2.7 ± 3.1% (p = 0.002) in the lateral position compared to the supine position, while AHI decreased by 46 ± 20% (p < 0.0001) with the same postural change. The correlation between postural changes in AHI and leg fluid volume was 0.22 (p = 0.42). Changes in leg fluid volume were a slow phenomenon, whereas changes in CSR-CSA severity were almost synchronous with changes in posture. CONCLUSION Lateral position causes a reduction in rostral fluid shift compared to the supine position, but this change does not correlate with the corresponding change in CSR-CSA severity. The two changes occur on different time scales. These findings question the role of postural changes in rostral fluid shift as a determinant of corresponding changes in CSR-CSA severity.

Sleep Breath 2024; 28:231-239.

Abstract
PURPOSE The objective was to determine if alteration in airflow induced by negative pressure (NP) applied to participants' upper airways during wakefulness, is related to obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) severity as determined by the apnea-hypopnea index (AHI). METHODS Adults 18 years of age or greater were recruited. All participants underwent overnight polysomnography to assess their apnea-hypopnea index (AHI). While awake, participants were twice exposed, orally, to -3 cm H2O of NP for five full breaths. The ratio of the breathing volumes of the last two breaths during NP exposure to the last two breaths prior to NP exposure was deemed the NP ratio (NPR). RESULTS Eighteen participants were enrolled. A strong relationship between the AHI and the exponentially transformed NPR (ExpNPR) for all participants was observed (R2 = 0.55, p < 0.001). A multivariable model using the independent variable ExpNPR, age, body mass index and sex accounted for 81% of variability in AHI (p = 0.0006). A leave-one-subject-out cross-validation analysis revealed that predicted AHI using the multivariable model, and actual AHI from participants' polysomnograms, were strongly related (R2 = 0.72, p < 0.001). CONCLUSION We conclude that ExpNPR, was strongly related to the AHI, independently of demographic factors known to be related to the AHI.

BMC Oral Health 2024; 24:224. [PMID: 38347492 PMCID: PMC10863124 DOI: 10.1186/s12903-024-03960-0] [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: 09/17/2023] [Accepted: 01/31/2024] [Indexed: 02/15/2024] Open
Abstract
BACKGROUND Sedentary behavior (SB) may contribute to obesity and lower extremity fluid retention, which may favor the development of obstructive sleep apnea (OSA). However, linking sedentary behavior to OSA is unclear. The purpose of this study was to determine if there is an association between SB and OSA. METHODS Three typical questions in the NHANES questionnaire(①The frequency of feeling excessively sleepy per month. ②The frequency of gasping, snorting or stopping breathing per week. ③The frequency of snoring per week.) have been used for the assessment of OSA. A physical activity questionnaire(On a typical day, the amount of time you spend sitting or reclining.) was used to assess SB. This secondary analysis included National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey (NHANES) participants (unweighted = 20,115). Weighted sample and multiple logistic regression complex sample analysis techniques were used in this study. RESULTS After adjustment for confounders, participants with SB(> 8 h/d) had a higher risk of OSA compared to SB(< 4 h/d). Stratified analysis by gender showed that there was no significant association of SB and OSA in men. However, in women, with SB(< 4 h/d) as the reference, participants with(≥ 4 h/d) had an increased risk of OSA. By age-stratified analysis, the association of SB with OSA was stronger among older participants. CONCLUSION Analysis in this study showed a positive association between SB and OSA, more pronounced in women and participants older than 60 years old.

Abstract
AIMS To determine the effectiveness of non-pharmacological interventions on sleep outcomes among patients with coronary artery disease and recognize pertinent characteristics that potentially affect the effectiveness of such interventions. METHODS AND RESULTS Relevant studies conducted before 27 April 2022 were identified through four core electronic databases using terms related to coronary artery disease, sleep outcomes, and randomized controlled trials. Two authors independently conducted study selection, data extraction, and risk-of-bias assessment. Meta-analysis, sub-group analysis, publication bias analysis, and sensitivity analysis were conducted using R version 4.2.2. Of the 4755 retrieved articles, 42 studies were selected for systematic review and 30 studies were included in the meta-analysis. The findings of this study revealed that non-pharmacological interventions significantly improved self-reported sleep quality (standardized mean difference = -0.85, 95% confidence interval -1.08, -0.63), but had no effects on objectively measured sleep efficiency and duration. Regarding the types of interventions involved, environmental control was the most effective in improving self-reported sleep quality, followed by relaxation, self-care behaviour management, and relaxation and cognitive/psychological complex interventions. Through subgroup analysis, we did not find any covariates that were significantly related to self-reported sleep quality. CONCLUSION Non-pharmacological interventions have been shown to play beneficial roles in improving self-reported sleep quality among patients with coronary artery disease. Additional studies are required to elucidate the effect of non-pharmacological interventions on objectively measured sleep outcomes and to characterize their optimal frequencies and durations.

Effect of high-intensity interval training on obstructive sleep apnea severity: A randomized controlled trial. Sleep Med 2023; 112:316-321. [PMID: 37952480 DOI: 10.1016/j.sleep.2023.11.008] [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: 09/04/2023] [Revised: 10/26/2023] [Accepted: 11/03/2023] [Indexed: 11/14/2023]
Abstract
Vigorous physical activity has been associated with a reduced risk of developing obstructive sleep apnea (OSA). However, whether high-intensity interval training (HIIT) reduces OSA severity remains unclear. Thus, this study aimed to investigate the impact of 12 weeks of HIIT on the apnea-hypopnea index (AHI) and sleep parameters in participants with moderate-severe OSA. In this randomized controlled trial, 36 adults (19 males; 52.2 ± 9.8 years; body mass index = 34.2 ± 5.8) with moderate to severe OSA (AHI = 42.0 ± 22.9 e/h) were randomly assigned to HIIT [5 periods of 4 min of walking or running on a treadmill at 90-95 % of maximum heart rate (HRmax) interspersed with 3 min of walking at 50-55 % of HRmax performed three times per week for 12 weeks] or a control group (CG; stretching exercises performed two times per week for 12 weeks). Sleep parameters were assessed at baseline and after 12 weeks through overnight polysomnography. Generalized estimated equations assessed differences between groups over time. There was not group × time interaction for body mass index between groups (p = 0.074). However, significant group × time interactions were observed for AHI (CG change = 8.2 ± 3.7, HIIT change = -8.6 ± 4.8; p = 0.005), SaO2 minimum (CG change = -1.6 ± 1.6 %, HIIT change = 0.4 ± 2.3 %; p = 0.030), total sleep time (CG change = -31.5 ± 19.5 min, HIIT change = 33.7 ± 19.3 min; p = 0.049), and sleep efficiency (CG change = -3.2 ± 4.4 %, HIIT change = 9.9 ± 3.5 %; p = 0.026). Moreover, there was a significant time × group interaction for maximum oxygen consumption (VO2max; CG change = -1.1 ± 1.0 mL/kg/min, HIIT change = 4.8 ± 0.9 mL/kg/min; p < 0.001)]. However, In patients with OSA, 12 weeks of HIIT decreases sleep apnea severity, improves sleep quality, and cardiorespiratory fitness.

Abstract
BACKGROUND /Objective: Sleep-disordered breathing (SDB) may change from the acute to stable phase of some cardiovascular disorders, but little is known whether these dynamic changes also exist in pulmonary embolism (PE). This study aimed to analyze the changes in the apnea-hypopnea index (AHI) from the acute to stable phase of PE as well as the factors associated. PATIENTS/METHODS We conducted a prospective, longitudinal and multicenter study of consecutive adults requiring hospitalization for non-hypotensive acute PE, with a protocol including clinical, imaging (transthoracic echocardiography [TTE] and computed tomography), blood tests and a sleep study within 48 h of diagnosis of PE. After 3 months of follow-up, the sleep study was repeated. Right ventricular (RV) dysfunction was defined according to TTE criteria. RESULTS One hundred and eleven patients (mean age [SD]: 63 [15] years; body mass index: 28.4 [4.7] kg/m2) were included. The initial AHI was 24.4 (21.8) events/h (AHI≥5: 82.8 %; AHI≥30: 33.3 %). Seventy-seven patients (69.4 %) had RV dysfunction. In the overall cohort, the AHI decreased by 8.7 events/h from the acute to stable phase (24.4/h vs. 15.7/h; p=0.013). Patients with RV dysfunction showed a greater decrease in AHI (mean decrease 12.3/h vs. 0.43/h). In the multivariable analysis a drop of an AHI≥5 events/hour was independently associated with the presence of initial RV dysfunction (hazard ratio 3.9; 95%CI 1.3 to 12.1). CONCLUSIONS In hemodynamically stable patients with acute PE, there is a transient but clinically significant decrease in the AHI from the acute to stable phase, particularly when initially presenting with RV dysfunction.

Abstract
PURPOSE Obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) and physical inactivity are common after stroke. Physical inactivity can lead to/or exacerbate edema following stroke, and the resultant overnight fluid shift may increase the risk of OSA. We aimed to investigate the effect of physical activity on nocturnal rostral fluid shift, sleep pattern, and edematous state of hemiparetic patients. METHODS Neck circumference (tape measured) and arms, legs, and trunk fluid volume (bioelectrical impedance spectrum analyzer) were measured before and after 2 polysomnography (PSG) examinations. In the lab, a whole night PSG was performed after the intervention. The intervention consisted of inactivity (lying down and sitting) or activity (standing, performing calf muscle contractions while standing, walking, and climbing stairs) between 13 and 21 h, after the randomization of the participants. With a 7-day interval, participants crossed over to the other group. RESULTS From 126 eligible participants, 8 with hemiparetic post-first-ever ischemic stroke at the subacute phase were recruited (age: 53.2 ± 16.2; 6 women). Physical activity reduced AHI from 19 to 13 n°/h and wake after sleep onset from 76.5 to 60.3 min and increased fluid volume of paretic and non-paretic arms and trunk before sleep compared to inactivity. CONCLUSION An acute bout of physical activity reduced OSA classification based on AHI (from moderate to mild) and sleep fragmentation. Our results provide preliminary evidence of a possible link between physical activity in patients after stroke as an intervention to counteract OSA severity and improve sleep.

Abstract
Obstructive sleep apnea syndrome (OSAS) is a common breathing disorder in sleep in which the airways narrow or collapse during sleep, causing obstructive sleep apnea. The prevalence of OSAS continues to rise worldwide, particularly in middle-aged and elderly individuals. The mechanism of upper airway collapse is incompletely understood but is associated with several factors, including obesity, craniofacial changes, altered muscle function in the upper airway, pharyngeal neuropathy, and fluid shifts to the neck. The main characteristics of OSAS are recurrent pauses in respiration, which lead to intermittent hypoxia (IH) and hypercapnia, accompanied by blood oxygen desaturation and arousal during sleep, which sharply increases the risk of several diseases. This paper first briefly describes the epidemiology, incidence, and pathophysiological mechanisms of OSAS. Next, the alterations in relevant signaling pathways induced by IH are systematically reviewed and discussed. For example, IH can induce gut microbiota (GM) dysbiosis, impair the intestinal barrier, and alter intestinal metabolites. These mechanisms ultimately lead to secondary oxidative stress, systemic inflammation, and sympathetic activation. We then summarize the effects of IH on disease pathogenesis, including cardiocerebrovascular disorders, neurological disorders, metabolic diseases, cancer, reproductive disorders, and COVID-19. Finally, different therapeutic strategies for OSAS caused by different causes are proposed. Multidisciplinary approaches and shared decision-making are necessary for the successful treatment of OSAS in the future, but more randomized controlled trials are needed for further evaluation to define what treatments are best for specific OSAS patients.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Given the beneficial effects of exercise in different populations and the close relationship between healthy ageing and sleep quality, our objective was to determine if physical exercise delivered through a structured program improves sleep quality in older adults. METHODS Embase, PubMed/MEDLINE, Web of Science, and Cochrane Register of Clinical Trials (CENTRAL) were searched to 15 January 2023. Studies that applied physical exercise programs in older adults were reviewed. Two independent reviewers analysed the studies, extracted the data, and assessed the quality of evidence. RESULTS Of the 2599 reports returned by the initial search, 13 articles reporting on 2612 patients were included in the data synthesis. The articles used interventions based on yoga (n = 5), multicomponent exercise (n = 3), walking (n = 2), cycling (n = 1), pilates (n = 1), elastic bands (n = 1), and healthy beat acupunch (n = 1). In the intervention group, we found significant improvement in Pittsburgh sleep quality index of -2.49 points (95% CI -3.84 to -1.14) in comparison to the control group (p = 0.0003) and sleep efficiency measured with objective instruments (MD 1.18%, 95% CI 0.86 to 1.50%, p < 0.0001). CONCLUSION Our results found that physical exercise programs in older adults improve sleep quality and efficiency measured with objective instruments.

Abstract
Objective Combining continuous positive airway pressure with physical activity (PA) might be a promising strategy to treat obstructive sleep apnea (OSA). This article describes how intervention mapping (IM) can guide the development, content, and mechanisms of action of a mobile application to promote PA in adults with OSA. Methods To develop the program, the IM approach was followed. This article presents the first three steps of IM to develop a mixed intervention (with interventionists and a digital application) aiming to: (1) assess patients' health problems and needs in a literature review to determine their expectations and perceived facilitators and barriers to PA behavior change and thus select the determinants of behavior; (2) formulate the expected intervention outcomes and objectives to be met to achieve the overall program goals; and (3) select and implement the behavior change techniques (BCTs) to achieve the change objectives. Results The literature review identified the relevant determinants (e.g., self-efficacy, coping, planning, and habit) of PA behavior using the health action process approach and multiprocess action control. These results were used to specify the program outcomes for PA adapted to physical, psychological, and social parameters. Overall, 11 performance objectives and 30 change objectives were defined. Lastly, BCTs and practical applications were identified. Conclusions The study provides a theoretical and methodological basis for researchers and practitioners given the current paucity of evidence-based PA interventions for adults with OSA. It addresses the lack of BCTs (framing and prompts/cue techniques) and meaningful behavioral determinants (identity and habit) in most interventions.

Abstract
Obesity is considered a twentieth-century epidemic and is a growing concern among health professionals. Obesity and its complications contribute to multiple chronic illnesses, such as type 2 diabetes (T2D), metabolic syndrome, obstructive sleep apnea (OSA), malignancy, and cardiovascular and liver diseases. In the last two decades, a bidirectional association between OSA and metabolic-associated fatty liver disease (MAFLD), independent of obesity, has been established. Both conditions have similar risk factors and metabolic comorbidities that may imply a common disease pathway. This review compiles the evidence and delineates the relationship between OSA and MAFLD from a clinical and diagnostic aspect.

Effects of Cardiac Rehabilitation on Sleep Quality in Heart Disease Patients with and without Heart Failure. INTERNATIONAL JOURNAL OF ENVIRONMENTAL RESEARCH AND PUBLIC HEALTH 2022; 19:16675.

Abstract
Insomnia is a modifiable cardiovascular risk factor. Previous studies suggested that attending a cardiac rehabilitation program may improve sleep quality in cardiac patients and pointed out the association between heart failure and poor sleep quality. The primary aim of this study was to evaluate sleep quality in patients attending a Multidisciplinary Cardiac Rehabilitation Program (MRCP), and to compare sleep quality between patients with and without heart failure. A prospective observational study was carried out on a consecutive sample of 240 patients attending an 8-week MRCP; 50 patients (20.8%) were included due to heart failure (NYHA stages I-III) and the rest of them after having undergone any revascularization procedure or valvular surgery. Before and after the completion of the MRCP, the quality of sleep was assessed by the Pittsburgh Sleep Quality Index (PSQI) score. Post-intervention global PSQI scores were statistically significantly lower than those of pre-intervention (p = 0.008), but only 60 patients (25%) registered a clinically significant improvement. When comparing patients with heart failure with those without, no differences in sleep quality were found. This suggests that only a small percentage of patients can achieve clinically significant improvements in sleep quality attending conventional MCRP. Suggestions for future research are given.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION Cardiac patients and those with chronic medical conditions often suffer from comorbidities such as insomnia and mood disorders. Previous treatment protocols have focused on resolving symptoms of anxiety and depression in this population using Stress Management Training (SMT). However, these treatments have neglected the importance of sleep problems in these patients. This pilot trial sought to address this by examining the feasibility of a novel CBTi/SMT treatment protocol. METHODS 42 participants attending a Cardiac Rehab (CR) exercise program registered in this 7-week non-randomized pilot trial. The primary objective of the pilot trial was to determine the feasibility of the protocol for retention and adherence rates. Secondarily, the authors sought to examine the potential efficacy of the program in terms of treating insomnia, depression, anxiety, emotion dysregulation, and arousal. RESULTS 29 participants attended at least 1 class, with 21 participants completing the program. The average attendance for the program completers was 6 out of 7 classes (SD = 0.8) with four days of practice each week (SD = 1.6) for 33 minutes daily (SD = 16.8). Moreover, the number of participants meeting clinical threshold for insomnia, anxiety, and/or depression was significantly reduced at post-treatment and follow-up. Similarly, raw scores on the relevant scales were significantly reduced at both timepoints. CONCLUSION This pilot trial provided preliminary evidence for the feasibility and efficacy of targeting sleep improvement with a combined CBTi/SMT protocol. This provides the groundwork for future RCTs to establish the effectiveness of targeting insomnia in a range of medical populations.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE The aim of this review was to summarize literature examining the prevalence, impact, and trajectories of sleep disturbance in cardiac rehabilitation (CR) patients and discuss how CR programs may incorporate targeted evaluation and interventions to promote sleep health. REVIEW METHODS A narrative review of literature allowed for an examination of the prevalence of sleep disturbance in CR patients, the effects of sleep disturbance on CR outcomes, and trajectories of sleep disturbance in CR. SUMMARY Sleep disturbance is prevalent in CR patient populations and is related to clinical and functional outcomes. Sleep may be an important biobehavioral process to target in CR to improve important patient outcomes and achieve secondary prevention goals.

Abstract
With exercise being more frequently utilized in treatment for obstructive sleep apnea (OSA), a systematic review of the intervention efficacy of exercise on OSA is necessary. PubMed, EBSCO, Web of Science, VIP, and CNKI databases were searched to collect randomized controlled trials (RCTs) of exercise applied to OSA from January 2000 to January 2022. The literature screening, data extraction, and risk of bias assessment of included studies were conducted independently by two reviewers. Meta-analysis was then performed using Rev Man 5.4 software. A total of 9 RCTs were included, including 444 patients. Compared with the control group, exercise made an improvement in apnea-hypopnea index (AHI) [MD = -6.65, 95% CI (-7.77, -5.53), p < 0.00001], minimum oxygen saturation (SaO2min%) [MD = 1.67, 95% CI (0.82, 2.52), p = 0.0001], peak oxygen uptake (VO2peak) [SMD = 0.54, 95% CI (0.31, 0.78), p < 0.00001], Pittsburgh sleep quality index (PSQI) [MD = -2.08, 95% CI (-3.95, -0.21), p = 0.03], and Epworth Sleepiness Scale (ESS) values [MD = -1.64, 95% CI, (-3.07, -0.22), p = 0.02]. However, there were no significant changes in body mass index (BMI). As for the results of subgroup analysis, aerobic exercise combined with resistance exercise [MD = -7.36, 95% CI (-8.64, -6.08), p < 0.00001] had a better effect on AHI reduction than aerobic exercise alone [MD = -4.36, 95% CI (-6.67, -2.06), p = 0.0002]. This systematic review demonstrates that exercise reduces the severity of OSA with no changes in BMI, and the effect of aerobic exercise combined with resistance training is better than aerobic exercise alone in AHI reduction. Exercise also improves cardiopulmonary fitness, sleep quality, and excessive daytime sleepiness.

Abstract
Sleep is a cyclically occurring, transient, and functional state that is controlled primarily by neurobiological processes. Sleep disorders and insomnia are increasingly being diagnosed at all ages. These are risk factors for depression, mental disorders, coronary heart disease, metabolic syndrome, and/or high blood pressure. A number of factors can negatively affect sleep quality, including the use of stimulants, stress, anxiety, and the use of electronic devices before sleep. A growing body of evidence suggests that nutrition, physical activity, and sleep hygiene can significantly affect the quality of sleep. The aim of this review was to discuss the factors that can affect sleep quality, such as nutrition, stimulants, and physical activity.

Influence of Apnea Hypopnea Index and the Degree of Airflow Limitation on Endothelial Function in Patients Undergoing Diagnostic Coronary Angiography. BIOLOGY 2022; 11:biology11030457.

Abstract
Background: Obstructive sleep apnea is associated with an increased prevalence of cardiovascular disease. The mechanism of these associations is not completely understood. We aimed to investigate the association of the apnea hypopnea index and the degree of airflow limitation with endothelial dysfunction. Methods: This was a single-center prospective study of patients admitted for diagnostic coronary angiography (CAG). Endothelial function was assessed by the non-invasive EndoPAT system by reactive hyperemia index (RHI) and divided into two groups: endothelial dysfunction and normal endothelial function. Sleep apnea signs were detected by WatchPAT measuring the respiratory disturbance index (pRDI), the apnea and hypopnea index (pAHI), and the oxygen desaturation index (ODI). Patients underwent spirometry and body plethysmography. Based on CAG, the severity of coronary artery disease was assessed as follows: no significant coronary artery disease, single-, two- and three-vessel disease. Results: A total of 113 patients were included in the study. Breathing disorders measured by WatchPAT and spirometry were more severe in patients with endothelial dysfunction: pRDI (27.3 vs. 14.8, p = 0.001), pAHI (24.6 vs. 10.3, p < 0.001), ODI (13.7 vs. 5.2, p = 0.002), forced expiratory volume in one second (FEV1) (81.2 vs. 89, p = 0.05). In a multivariate regression analysis, pAHI and FEV1 were independent predictors of endothelial dysfunction assessed by RHI. There was no correlation between the severity of coronary artery disease and endothelial dysfunction. Conclusions: Obstructive sleep apnea signs and greater airflow limitation were associated with endothelial dysfunction regardless of the severity of the coronary artery disease.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Reduced physical activity and increased sedentary behaviour may independently contribute to the development of obstructive sleep apnoea (OSA) through increased adiposity, inflammation, insulin resistance and body fluid retention. However, epidemiological evidence remains sparse and is primarily limited to cross-sectional studies. METHODS We prospectively followed 50 332 women from the Nurses' Health Study (2002-2012), 68 265 women from the Nurses' Health Study II (1995-2013) and 19 320 men from the Health Professionals Follow-up Study (1996-2012). Recreational physical activity (quantified by metabolic equivalent of task (MET)-h per week) and sitting time spent watching TV and at work/away from home were assessed by questionnaires every 2-4 years. Physician-diagnosed OSA was identified by validated self-report. Cox models were used to estimate hazard ratios (HRs) and 95% confidence intervals for OSA incidence associated with physical activity and sedentary behaviour. RESULTS During 2 004 663 person-years of follow-up, we documented 8733 incident OSA cases. After adjusting for potential confounders, the pooled HR for OSA comparing participants with ≥36.0 versus <6.0 MET-h per week of physical activity was 0.46 (95% CI 0.43-0.50; ptrend<0.001). Compared with participants spending <4.0 h per week sitting watching TV, the multivariable-adjusted HR was 1.78 (95% CI 1.60-1.98) for participants spending ≥28.0 h per week (ptrend<0.001). The comparable HR was 1.49 (95% CI 1.38-1.62) for sitting hours at work/away from home (ptrend<0.001). With additional adjustment for several metabolic factors, including body mass index and waist circumference, the associations with physical activity and sitting hours at work/away from home were attenuated but remained significant (ptrend<0.001), whereas the association with sitting hours watching TV was no longer statistically significant (ptrend=0.18). CONCLUSIONS Higher levels of physical activity and fewer sedentary hours were associated with lower OSA incidence. The potential mediating role of metabolic factors in the association between sedentary behaviour and OSA incidence may depend on the type of sedentary behaviour. Our results suggest that promoting an active lifestyle may reduce OSA incidence.

Abstract
RATIONALE Obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) is highly prevalent among patients with asthma, suggesting a pathophysiological link between the two, but a mechanism for this has not been identified. HYPOTHESIS Among patients with asthma, those with OSA will have greater overnight increases in thoracic fluid volume and small airways narrowing than those without OSA. METHODS We enrolled 19 participants with asthma: 9 with OSA (apnea-hypopnea index (AHI) ≥10) and 10 without OSA (AHI <10). All participants underwent overnight polysomnography. Before and after sleep, thoracic fluid volume was measured by bioelectrical impedance and small airways narrowing was primarily assessed by respiratory system reactance at 5Hz using oscillometry. RESULTS Patients with asthma and OSA (OSA group) had a greater overnight increase in thoracic fluid volume by 120.5 mL than patients without OSA (non-OSA group) (164.4 ± 44.0 vs 43.9 ± 47.3 mL, p=0.006). Compared to the non-OSA group, the OSA group had greater overnight decrease in reactance at 5Hz (-1.08 ± 0.75 vs 0.21 ± 0.27 cmH2O/L/s, p=0.02), and overnight increase in reactance area (14.81 ± 11.09 vs -1.20 ± 2.46 cmH2O/L, p=0.04), frequency dependence of resistance (1.02 ± 0.68 vs 0.05 ± 0.18 cmH2O/L/s, p=0.04), and resonance frequency (2.80 ± 4.14 vs -1.42 ± 2.13 cmH2O/L/s, p=0.04). CONCLUSION Patients with asthma and co-existing OSA had greater overnight accumulation of fluid in the thorax in association with greater small airways narrowing than those without OSA. This suggests OSA could contribute to worsening of asthma at night by increasing fluid accumulation in the thorax.

Effect of exercise training on body composition in patients with obstructive sleep apnea: a systematic review and meta-analysis. Sleep Med 2021; 87:105-113. [PMID: 34547647 DOI: 10.1016/j.sleep.2021.08.027] [Citation(s) in RCA: 6] [Impact Index Per Article: 2.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 06/13/2021] [Revised: 08/22/2021] [Accepted: 08/26/2021] [Indexed: 12/21/2022]
Abstract
Reduction in adiposity is considered a cornerstone in the treatment of obstructive sleep apnea (OSA). Exercise training is one of the interventions used in the treatment of OSA. However, it remains unclear whether exercise training alleviates OSA by improving body composition. This study aimed to verify the effect of exercise training on body composition and the apnea-hypopnea index (AHI) in patients with OSA. This study adhered to the Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Reviews and Meta-Analyses guidelines and was registered in PROSPERO. PubMed/Medline, Scopus, and Cochrane databases were used for systematic review. Analyses were performed using Review Manager software (version 5.3; R Foundation for Statistical Computing, Vienna, Austria). Exercise training significantly reduced body mass index (mean difference = -0.55 kg/m2; 95% CI = -0.95 to -0.15), body fat percentage (mean difference = -1.19%; 95% CI = -2.03 to -0.35), neck circumference (mean difference = -0.55 cm; 95% CI = -1.08 to -0.02), total body weight (mean difference = -2.13 kg; 95% CI = -4.30 to 0.04), and AHI -8.06 events/hour; 95% CI = -10.47 to -5.66). Although body composition was improved by exercise, this improvement was clinically small. Moreover, improvement in AHI by exercise may not be entirely due to improvements in adiposity.

Abstract
Although recent trials have shown promising benefits of exercise on obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) severity, the long-term effect of these interventions remains unknown. The aim of this study was to assess the effect of a 9-month community physical activity program on OSA severity one year later in free-living conditions. OSA patients, previously included in a 9-month randomized controlled trial (EXESAS study) evaluating the effects of supervised community physical activity on OSA severity, were invited to participate in an extra one-year observational study. Twenty-eight patients completed the study. Although OSA severity did not significantly worsen over the real-life period (9 to 21 months of follow-up), reductions in apnea-hypopnea index (AHI) and oxygen desaturation index were no longer significant after 21 months of follow-up compared to baseline (baseline AHI: 22.2 ± 6.3 /h; 9 months: 16.3 ± 6.4 /h; 21 months: 18.7 ± 8.9 /h). Benefits observed at 9 months on daytime sleepiness and mental health were preserved at 21 months, whereas cardiorespiratory fitness slightly decreased. Per-protocol analysis revealed that patients who stopped exercise at 9 months had worsened OSA severity compared to those who continued exercise during the real-life period (AHI: +9.0 ± 8.8 vs. -1.3 ± 5.3 /h; p < .01). In conclusion, our study suggested that improvements in OSA severity remain transient and is dependent on long-term adherence to regular physical activity practice.

Karataş T, Polat Ü. Effect of nurse-led program on the exercise behavior of coronary artery patients: Pender's Health Promotion Model. PATIENT EDUCATION AND COUNSELING 2021; 104:1183-1192. [PMID: 33129630 DOI: 10.1016/j.pec.2020.10.003] [Citation(s) in RCA: 11] [Impact Index Per Article: 3.7] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 04/26/2020] [Revised: 09/19/2020] [Accepted: 10/01/2020] [Indexed: 06/11/2023]
Abstract
OBJECTIVE To determine the effect of nurse-led program based on Pender's Health Promotion Model on the exercise behaviors of coronary artery patients. METHODS The two-arm parallel, single-blind, randomized controlled trial was conducted with a total of 62 patients, intervention (n = 32) and control group (n = 30). Intervention group received a nurse-led program based on Pender's Health Promotion Model and routine follow-ups of control group continued. The health perception, perceived exercise self efficacy, perceived exercise benefits/barriers, exercise-related effect, exercise frequency and time were assessed at baseline, 4th, 8th and 12th weeks. The data were evaluated by frequency, percentage, median, mean and standard deviation, chi-square, Friedman and Mann Whitney U tests. RESULTS Health perception (62.6 ± 9.5; median:67.0; p < 0.001), perceived exercise benefit (105.8 ± 7.4; median:107.0; p < 0.001), perceived exercise self efficacy (71.2 ± 5.4; median: 71.5; p < 0.05), exercise-related effect (31.6 ± 6.0; median:34.0; p < 0.05), exercise frequency (4.8 ± 2.2; median:6.0 days/week; p < 0.05) and time (105.9 ± 53.6; median:130.0 min/week; p < 0.05) were higher and perceived barriers (43.1 ± 3.9; median: 42.0; p < 0.001) were lower in the intervention group at 12th week. CONCLUSIONS The nurse-led program has been shown to increase the exercise behavior in the intervention group. PRACTICE IMPLICATIONS Since it enables patients to gain and maintain exercise, it is highlighted the model to be integrated into clinical practice.

Abstract
The occurrence and development of atherosclerosis could be influenced by intermittent hypoxia. Obstructive sleep apnea (OSA), characterized by intermittent hypoxia, is world-wide prevalence with increasing morbidity and mortality rates. Researches remain focused on the study of its mechanism and improvement of diagnosis and treatment. However, the underlying mechanism is complex, and the best practice for OSA diagnosis and treatment considering atherosclerosis and related cardiovascular diseases is still debatable. In this review, we provided an update on research in OSA in the last 5 years with regard to atherosclerosis. The processes of inflammation, oxidative stress, autonomic nervous system activation, vascular dysfunction, platelet activation, metabolite dysfunction, small molecule RNA regulation, and the cardioprotective occurrence was discussed. Additionally, improved diagnosis such as, the utilized of portable device, and treatment especially with inconsistent results in continuous positive airway pressure and mandibular advancement devices were illustrated in detail. Therefore, further fundamental and clinical research should be carried out for a better understanding the deep interaction between OSA and atherosclerosis, as well as the suggestion of newer diagnostic and treatment options.

Abstract
STUDY OBJECTIVES To assess the impact of cardiac rehabilitation for decreasing sleep-disordered breathing in patients with coronary artery disease. METHODS The study included 121 patients aged 60.01 ± 10.08 years, 101 of whom were men, with an increased pretest probability of OSA. The cardiac rehabilitation program lasted 21-25 days. The improvement in cardiorespiratory fitness was assessed using the changes in peak metabolic equivalents, the maximal heart rate achieved, the proportion of the age- and sex-predicted maximal heart rate, and the Six-Minute Walk Test distance. Level 3 portable sleep tests with respiratory event index assessments were performed in 113 patients on admission and discharge. RESULTS Increases were achieved in metabolic equivalents (Δ1.20; 95% confidence interval [CI], 0.95-1.40; P < .0001), maximal heart rate (-Δ7.5 beats per minute; 95% CI, 5.00-10.50; P < .0001), proportion of age- and sex-predicted maximal heart rate (Δ5.50%; 95% CI, 4.00-7.50; P < .0001), and the Six-Minute Walk Test distance (Δ91.00 m; 95% CI, 62.50-120.00; P < .0001). Sleep-disordered breathing was diagnosed in 94 (83.19%) patients: moderate in 28 (24.8%) patients and severe in 27 (23.9%) patients, with a respiratory event index of 19.75 (interquartile range, 17.20-24.00) and 47.50 (interquartile range, 35.96-56.78), respectively. OSA was dominant in 90.40% of patients. The respiratory event index reduction achieved in the sleep-disordered breathing group was -Δ3.65 (95% CI, -6.30 to -1.25; P = .003) and was in parallel to the improvement in cardiorespiratory fitness in the subgroups with the highest effort load and with severe sleep-disordered breathing: -Δ6.40 (95% CI, -11.40 to -1.90; P = .03) and -Δ11.00 (95% CI, -18.65 to -4.40; P = .003), respectively. CONCLUSIONS High-intensity exercise training during cardiac rehabilitation resulted in a significant decrease in OSA, when severe, in parallel with an improvement in cardiorespiratory fitness in patients with coronary artery disease.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Obstructive sleep apnea syndrome (OSAS) is a common disease. The objective of this research was to determine the effectiveness of a graduated walking program in reducing the apnea-hypopnea index number in patients with obstructive sleep apnea syndrome (OSAS). METHODS A randomized controlled clinical trial with a two-arm parallel in three tertiary hospitals was carried out with seventy sedentary patients with moderate to severe OSAS. Twenty-nine subjects in each arm were analyzed by protocol. The control group received usual care, while usual care and an exercise program based on progressive walks without direct supervision for 6 months were offered to the intervention group. RESULTS The apnea-hypopnea index decreased by six points in the intervention group, and improvements in oxygen desaturation index, total cholesterol, and Low-Density Lipoprotein of Cholesterol (LDL-c) were observed. A higher decrease in sleep apnea-hypopnea index (45 ± 20.6 vs. 34 ± 26.3/h; p = 0.002) was found in patients with severe vs. moderate OSAS, as well as in oxygen desaturation index from baseline values (43.3 vs. 34.3/h; p = 0.046). Besides, High-Density Lipoprotein of Cholesterol (HDL-c) values showed a higher increase in the intervention group (45.3 vs. 49.5 mg/dL; p = 0.009) and also, a higher decrease in LDL-c was found in this group (141.2 vs. 127.5 mg/dL; p = 0.038). CONCLUSION A home physical exercise program is a useful and viable therapeutic measure for the management of OSAS.

Abstract
Sleep-related breathing disorders (SBDs) include obstructive apnoea, central apnoea and sleep-related hypoventilation. These nocturnal events have the potential to increase pulmonary arterial pressure (PAP) during sleep but also in the waking state. "Pure" obstructive sleep apnoea syndrome (OSAS) is responsible for a small increase in PAP whose clinical impact has not been demonstrated. By contrast, in obesity hypoventilation syndrome (OHS) or overlap syndrome (the association of chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) with obstructive sleep apnoea (OSA)), nocturnal respiratory events contribute to the development of pulmonary hypertension (PH), which is often severe. In the latter circumstances, treatment of SBDs is essential in order to improve pulmonary haemodynamics.Patients with pulmonary arterial hypertension (PAH) or chronic thromboembolic pulmonary hypertension (CTEPH) are at risk of developing SBDs. Obstructive and central apnoea, as well as a worsening of ventilation-perfusion mismatch, can be observed during sleep. There should be a strong suspicion of SBDs in such a patient population; however, the precise indications for sleep studies and the type of recording remain to be specified. The diagnosis of OSAS in patients with PAH or CTEPH should encourage treatment with continuous positive airway pressure (CPAP). The presence of isolated nocturnal hypoxaemia should also prompt the initiation of long-term oxygen therapy. These treatments are likely to avoid worsening of PH; however, it is prudent not to treat central apnoea and Cheyne-Stokes respiration (CSR) with adaptive servo-ventilation in patients with chronic right-heart failure because of a potential risk of serious adverse effects from such treatment.In this review we will consider the current knowledge of the consequences of SBDs on pulmonary haemodynamics in patients with and without chronic respiratory disease (group 3 of the clinical classification of PH) and the effect of treatments of respiratory events during sleep on PH. The prevalence and consequences of SBDs in PAH and CTEPH (groups 1 and 4 of the clinical classification of PH, respectively), as well as therapeutic options, will also be discussed.

Abstract
IMPACT STATEMENT Diabetic kidney disease (DKD) is associated with increased mortality in diabetic patients and has a negative impact on public health. The identification of potential therapies that help the management of DKD can contribute to the improvement of health and quality of life of patients. Thus, this paper is timely and relevant because, in addition to presenting a concise review of the pathogenesis and major pathophysiological mechanisms of DKD, it addresses the most recent findings on the impact of exercise training on this disease. Thus, since non-pharmacological interventions have gained increasing attention in the fight against chronic diseases, this paper appears as an important tool to increase knowledge and stimulate innovative research on the impact of exercise on kidney disease.

Abstract
IMPORTANCE Obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) affects 17% of women and 34% of men in the US and has a similar prevalence in other countries. This review provides an update on the diagnosis and treatment of OSA. OBSERVATIONS The most common presenting symptom of OSA is excessive sleepiness, although this symptom is reported by as few as 15% to 50% of people with OSA in the general population. OSA is associated with a 2- to 3-fold increased risk of cardiovascular and metabolic disease. In many patients, OSA can be diagnosed with home sleep apnea testing, which has a sensitivity of approximately 80%. Effective treatments include weight loss and exercise, positive airway pressure, oral appliances that hold the jaw forward during sleep, and surgical modification of the pharyngeal soft tissues or facial skeleton to enlarge the upper airway. Hypoglossal nerve stimulation is effective in select patients with a body mass index less than 32. There are currently no effective pharmacological therapies. Treatment with positive airway pressure lowers blood pressure, especially in patients with resistant hypertension; however, randomized clinical trials of OSA treatment have not demonstrated significant benefit on rates of cardiovascular or cerebrovascular events. CONCLUSIONS AND RELEVANCE OSA is common and the prevalence is increasing with the increased prevalence of obesity. Daytime sleepiness is among the most common symptoms, but many patients with OSA are asymptomatic. Patients with OSA who are asymptomatic, or whose symptoms are minimally bothersome and pose no apparent risk to driving safety, can be treated with behavioral measures, such as weight loss and exercise. Interventions such as positive airway pressure are recommended for those with excessive sleepiness and resistant hypertension. Managing asymptomatic OSA to reduce cardiovascular and cerebrovascular events is not currently supported by high-quality evidence.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE Obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) is a high prevalent disorder with severe consequences including sleepiness, metabolic, and cardiovascular disorders. The aim of this study was to assess the effect of an individualized exercise-training (IET) program with educational sessions vs educational sessions alone on severity markers of OSA over an eight-week duration. METHODS This was a randomised, controlled, parallel-design study. In sum, 64 patients with moderate-to-severe OSA (apnea-hypopnea index AHI 15-45/hour), low physical activity level (Voorrips<9), body-mass index (BMI) <40 kg/m2 were included in intervention group (IG) or control group (CG), and 54 patients finished the study. All underwent polysomnography (PSG), multiple sleep latency test (MSLT), constant workload exercise test, blood samples and fulfilled questionnaires twice. The primary endpoint was the change in apnea-hypopnea (AHI) at eight weeks from baseline. Main secondary endpoints were daytime sleepiness assessed by questionnaire and objective tests. RESULTS No significant between-group differences were found for changes in AHI. A reduction in AHI was found in IG only (p = 0.005). Compared to CG, exercise training leads to a greater decrease in AHI during REM sleep (p = 0.0004), with a significant increase in mean daytime sleep latency (p = 0.02). Between-group differences were significant for weight reduction, severity of fatigue, insomnia and depressive symptoms with trend for sleepiness symptoms. CONCLUSIONS In adult patients with moderate-to-severe OSA, IET did not decrease AHI compared to the control group but improved markers of severity of OSA, in particular AHI in rapid eye movement (REM) sleep and objective daytime sleepiness. Adding personalized exercise training to the management of patients with OSA should be considered. CLINICALTRIALS. GOV IDENTIFIER NCT01256307.

Abstract
Sleep health is a multidimensional construct that includes adequate duration, quality, and appropriately timed sleep that may be influenced by environmental factors. In this review, we focus on how an individual's living and sleeping environment, both the surrounding neighborhood physical and social features and the atmosphere around them, may impact their sleep health. We explore the associations of the physical environment (urban density, recreational facilities, green space, mixed land use, and healthy food stores), neighborhood deprivation (disadvantage and disorder), and the social environment (social cohesion, safety, and stigma) with sleep in both adult and pediatric populations. We investigate how physical and social environmental features may lead to alterations in the timing, duration, and quality of sleep and contribute to the most prevalent sleep disorders: insomnia, sleep apnea, and circadian rhythm disorders. We also review how ambient factors such as artificial light, environmental noise, and air pollution may contribute to sleep pathology. We have included key studies and recent emerging data regarding how the differential distribution of environmental factors that may affect sleep health may contribute to sleep health disparities.

Abstract
STUDY OBJECTIVES Fluid overload shifting from the legs to the upper airway during sleep promotes obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) and interventions targeting fluid attenuate OSA. Fluid shift has been previously measured by bioelectrical impedance, a complex and time-consuming technique not applicable in the daily clinical settings. The aim of this study is to evaluate the presence of clinically detectable fluid overload and shift and its association with OSA. METHODS Patients undergoing sleep study for suspected OSA were asked to report the presence of 11 signs/symptoms associated to excessive accumulation of fluid in different parts of the body at different times of the day. RESULTS Among 392 patients (male: 53%, median [interquartile range] age: 56 years [1], body mass index, BMI: 29 kg/m2 [2]) included in the study, 135 (34%) had moderate-to-severe OSA (apnea hypopnea index, AHI ≥ 15). Daytime fluid accumulation and nocturnal fluid shift, clinically detectable by patient-reported "evening sock marks," "heavy legs during the day," and "morning stuffed nose," were prevalent in the entire population (46%, 43%, and 33%, respectively). In multivariate analysis, evening sock marks was an independent correlate of having an AHI ≥ 15, together with male sex, older age, and self-reported snoring and apneas. CONCLUSIONS Clinically detectable fluid overload and shift are prevalent in patients addressed for suspected OSA, and evening sock marks, a marker for leg swelling, is an independent correlate of moderate-to-severe OSA. This sign might contribute to OSA diagnosis and identification of patients likely to be treated by interventions targeting fluid overload and shift.

Abstract
STUDY OBJECTIVES Sleep apnea (SA) is prevalent among patients with coronary artery disease (CAD) and increases cardiovascular risk. A previous study showed that 1 month of cardiac rehabilitation (CR) reduced severity of SA in patients with CAD by reducing fluid accumulation in the legs during the day and the amount of fluid shifting rostrally into the neck overnight. The aim of this study was to evaluate whether CR will lead to longer-term attenuation of SA in patients with CAD. METHODS Fifteen patients with CAD and SA who had participated in a 1-month randomized trial of the effects of exercise training on SA were followed up until they completed 6 months of CR (age: 65 ± 10 years; body mass index: 27.0 ± 3.9 kg/m²; apnea-hypopnea index [AHI]: 39.0 ± 16.7). The AHI was evaluated at baseline by polysomnography and then at 6 months by portable monitoring at home. Cardiorespiratory fitness (VO2peak) was evaluated via a graded cardiopulmonary exercise test at baseline and 6 months later. The 6-month CR program included once weekly, 90-minute, in-facility exercise sessions, and 4 days per week at-home exercise sessions. RESULTS After 6 months of CR, there was a 54% reduction in the AHI (30.5 ± 15.2 to 14.1 ± 7.5, P < .001). Body mass index remained unchanged, but VO2peak increased by 27% (20.0 ± 6.1 to 26.0 ± 8.9 mL/kg/min, P = .04). CONCLUSIONS Participation in CR is associated with a significant long-term decrease in the severity of SA. This finding suggests that attenuation of SA by exercise could be a mechanism underlying reduced mortality following participation in CR in patients with CAD and SA.

Prevalence of obstructive sleep apnea syndrome in patients with lymphedema referred for complete decongestive therapy. J Vasc Surg Venous Lymphat Disord 2019; 8:137-142. [PMID: 31636050 DOI: 10.1016/j.jvsv.2019.07.007] [Citation(s) in RCA: 2] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.4] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 03/22/2019] [Accepted: 07/11/2019] [Indexed: 01/10/2023]
Abstract
OBJECTIVE Obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) syndrome is one of the most frequent chronic diseases in the general population. The nocturnal rostral fluid shift is accepted as a key mechanism in OSA pathogenesis in medical conditions associated with fluid overload. The main objective of this study was to assess the prevalence of OSA in patients with lymphedema. METHODS A prospective study was conducted in patients with lymphedema hospitalized for complete decongestive therapy between December 2016 and November 2017. A nocturnal respiratory polygraphy, an Epworth sleepiness scale, and lymphedema volume measurements were performed on the first day of decongestive therapy. OSA was diagnosed in patients with an apnea-hypopnea index of five or more events per hour and patients who had been previously diagnosed with OSA and treated by continuous positive airway pressure were identified. RESULTS Forty-three patients completed the study. The prevalence of OSA was 74% and was higher for patients with lymphedema of the lower limbs (85%) vs upper limbs (56%). OSA severity was correlated with a marker of lower limb lymphedema severity (P = .012). The body mass index was higher than in patients with OSA than patients without OSA (median, 31.0 kg/m2 [25th; 75th percentiles, 25.3; 37.0 kg/m2] vs median, 24.2 kg/m2 [25th; 75th percentiles, 22.7; 26.7 kg/m2]; P < .01). Hypertension was prevalent in 47% of patients with OSA vs 18% in patients without OSA. CONCLUSIONS Patients with lymphedema presenting for complete decongestive therapy present a high prevalence rate of OSA, particularly in those with lower limb lymphedema. OSA severity was correlated with a marker of lower limb lymphedema severity. These results suggest that overweight and obese patients with lymphedema should be screened systematically for OSA.

Abstract
In patients with atrial fibrillation (AF), the prevalence of moderate-to-severe sleep-disordered breathing (SDB) ranges between 21% and 72% and observational studies have demonstrated that SDB reduces the efficacy of rhythm control strategies, while treatment with continuous positive airway pressure lowers the rate of AF recurrence. Currently, the number of apneas and hypopneas per hour (apnea-hypopnea-index, AHI) determined during a single overnight sleep study is clinically used to assess the severity of SDB. However, recent studies suggest that SDB-severity in an individual patient is not stable over time but exhibits a considerable night-to-night variability which cannot be detected by only one overnight sleep assessment. Nightly SDB-severity assessment rather than the single-night diagnosis by one overnight sleep study may better reflect the exposure to SDB-related factors and yield a superior metric to determine SDB-severity in the management of AF. In this review we discuss mechanisms of night-to-night SDB variability, arrhythmogenic consequences of night-to-night SDB variability, strategies for longitudinal assessment of nightly SDB-severity and clinical implications for screening and management of SDB in AF patients.

Abstract
A growing understanding of the benefits of exercise over the past few decades has prompted researchers to take an interest in the possibilities of exercise therapy. Because each sport has its own set of characteristics and physiological complications that tend to occur during exercise training, the effects and underlying mechanisms of exercise remain unclear. Thus, the first step in probing the effects of exercise on different diseases is the selection of an optimal exercise protocol. This review summarizes the latest exercise prescription treatments for 26 different diseases: musculoskeletal system diseases (low back pain, tendon injury, osteoporosis, osteoarthritis, and hip fracture), metabolic system diseases (obesity, type 2 diabetes, type 1 diabetes, and nonalcoholic fatty liver disease), cardio-cerebral vascular system diseases (coronary artery disease, stroke, and chronic heart failure), nervous system diseases (Parkinson's disease, Huntington's disease, Alzheimer's disease, depression, and anxiety disorders), respiratory system diseases (chronic obstructive pulmonary disease, interstitial lung disease, and after lung transplantation), urinary system diseases (chronic kidney disease and after kidney transplantation), and cancers (breast cancer, colon cancer, prostate cancer, and lung cancer). Each exercise prescription is displayed in a corresponding table. The recommended type, intensity, and frequency of exercise prescriptions are summarized, and the effects of exercise therapy on the prevention and rehabilitation of different diseases are discussed.

Abstract
Lifestyle interventions addressing diet, exercise-training, sleep hygiene, and/or tobacco/alcohol cessation are recommended in the management of obstructive sleep apnoea (OSA). Yet their effectiveness on this condition still requires further research. This systematic review and meta-analysis was aimed at establishing (a) the effectiveness of lifestyle interventions on apnoea-hypopnoea index (AHI), oxygen desaturation index (ODI), excessive daytime sleepiness (EDS), and secondary OSA measures among adults, and (b) which intervention characteristics may drive the greatest improvements. A systematic search of studies was conducted using CINAHL, ProQuest, Psicodoc, Scopus, and Web of Science, from inception to April 2018. Standardized mean differences were calculated using the inverse variance method and random-effects models. The meta-analyses of 13 randomized controlled trials and 22 uncontrolled before-and-after studies (1420 participants) revealed significant reductions on AHI (d = -0.61 and -0.46, respectively), ODI (d = -0.61 and -0.46) and EDS (d = -0.41 and -0.49). Secondary OSA outcomes were also improved after interventions. However, effectiveness of interventions differed depending on their components, OSA severity, and gender. Thus, until future research further supports the differential effectiveness among lifestyle interventions on OSA, those addressing weight loss through diet and exercise-training may be the most effective treatments for male patients with moderate-severe OSA.

Abstract
STUDY OBJECTIVES Overnight fluid shift from the legs into the neck may contribute to the pathogenesis of snoring and obstructive sleep apnea (OSA). The present study investigates the effects of calf muscle electrical stimulation (ES) on reducing leg fluid accumulation while seated, subsequent rostral fluid shift on lying down, and the impact on snoring and OSA. METHODS Sixteen non-obese, normotensive men with OSA participated in the study. On the first study day, participants sat for 150 min receiving either active or sham ES through random allocation, then lied supine for 60 min. While seated and supine, leg and neck fluid volumes were measured using bioelectrical impedance to determine the magnitude of fluid shift. On the night of the study day, participants wore a portable sleep apnea diagnostic device overnight to measure snoring and sleep apnea severity. One week later, participants crossed over to the other study condition. RESULTS Active calf muscle ES reduced leg fluid accumulation by 46% while seated. Upon lying supine, active ES reduced fluid shift out of the legs by 17% and reduced neck fluid accumulation by 31%. This led to a 15% reduction in snoring index, but did not alleviate OSA. CONCLUSIONS One session of calf muscle ES was effective at reducing leg fluid accumulation and rostral fluid shift, which led to a modest reduction in the snoring index, but not OSA. Despite this lack of effect of calf muscle ES in attenuating OSA severity, the reduction in the snoring index suggests that it did have an effect, albeit mild, on upper-airway mechanics.

Abstract
STUDY OBJECTIVES Investigation into sleep and coronary heart disease (CHD) has predominantly been focused on sleep disturbances as a risk factor for developing CHD. Objectively measured and self-reported sleep at a patient level has only been sparsely and not systematically reported. Therefore, we set out to review the literature for studies using objectively measured and self-reported sleep in patients with CHD. The review focuses on patients with acute coronary syndrome (ACS) and stable CHD. METHODS A systematic review performed in four databases adhering to the PRISMA guidelines applying a qualitative synthesis of evidence. RESULTS Following ACS, we found sleep architecture to be significantly disturbed with changes normalizing over a period of up to 6 months. With increasing severity of CHD, sleep disturbances were more pronounced; however, the modulating effects of sleep-disordered breathing and ejection fraction on sleep in patients with CHD are conflicting. Overall, studies were predominantly cross-sectional in design and of low methodological quality. Polysomnography was the predominant outcome assessment tool and validated self-reported assessment tools were limited. CONCLUSIONS Future investigations in sleep and CHD applying both a longitudinal design and investigating objective and self-reported sleep assessments are warranted.
