Zeng J, He J, Chen M, Li J. Association between mean platelet volume and obstructive sleep apnea-hypopnea syndrome: A systemic review and meta-analysis. PLoS One 2024; 19:e0297815. [PMID: 38363791 PMCID: PMC10871486 DOI: 10.1371/journal.pone.0297815] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [MESH Headings] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 08/22/2023] [Accepted: 01/12/2024] [Indexed: 02/18/2024] Open
Abstract
BACKGROUND Despite polysomnography (PSG) being acknowledged being considered the gold standard for diagnosing obstructive sleep apnea-hypopnea syndrome (OSAHS), researchers have been seeking a biomarker that is less invasive, more practical in detection, and cost-effective for diagnosing and assessing the severity of the disease. To address this concern, the values of mean platelet volume (MPV) between patients with OSAHS and healthy controls were compared, and the relationship between MPV and multiple sleep monitoring parameters was analyzed in this study. METHODS A comprehensive search was conducted across medical databases, including PubMed, Web of Science, EMBASE, CNKI, and Wanfang, up until August 2, 2023, to identify published articles related to OSAHS. This study reviewed the literature regarding the values of MPV in individuals with OSAHS and control groups, the Pearson/Spearman correlation coefficients between MPV and sleep monitoring parameters, and the odds ratios (OR) of MPV concerning the occurrence of cardiovascular diseases (CVDs) in patients with OSAHS. Meta-analyses were performed using standardized mean difference (SMD), Fisher's z values correlation coefficients (ZCOR) and odds ratio (OR) as effect variables. A fixed-effect model was used if the heterogeneity was not significant (I2<50%); otherwise, a random-effect model was applied. We will also combine the treatment effect estimates of individual trials using fixed-effect and random-effects models. Statistical analysis was carried out by employing STATA 11.0 and R 4.1.3. RESULTS In total, 31 articles were selected for the final analysis. The study involved 3604 patients and 1165 control individuals. The MPV in the OSAHS group was considerably elevated in comparison to the healthy controls (SMD = 0.37, 95%CI = 0.21-0.53, P < 0.001), particularly among individuals with severe OSAHS (SMD = 0.57, 95%CI = 0.23-0.90, P = 0.001). Subgroup analysis based on ethnicity, mean body mass index (BMI), and study design type also revealed a considerably higher MPV in the OSAHS category in comparison to the healthy controls. Furthermore, MPV showed correlations with various sleep monitoring parameters. The elevation of MPV may be one of the risk factors for CVDs in individuals with OSAHS (adjusted OR = 1.72, 95%CI = 1.08-2.73, P = 0.022). CONCLUSION MPV is a relatively simple, cost-effective, and practical indicator of the severity of OSAHS, with its values being linked to the risk of CVDs in individuals with OSAHS.

A Systematic Review and Meta-Analysis of Mean Platelet Volume and Platelet Distribution Width in Patients with Obstructive Sleep Apnoea Syndrome. Biomedicines 2024; 12:270. [PMID: 38397872 PMCID: PMC10887137 DOI: 10.3390/biomedicines12020270] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 12/08/2023] [Revised: 01/15/2024] [Accepted: 01/23/2024] [Indexed: 02/25/2024] Open
Abstract
Obstructive sleep apnoea syndrome (OSAS) is a highly prevalent yet underestimated disorder caused by the complete or partial obstruction of the upper airways. Although polysomnography is the gold standard for OSAS diagnosis, there is an active search for easily accessible biomarkers of disease presence and severity, particularly those reflecting morphological changes in specific blood cells. We investigated the associations between the presence and severity of OSAS, continuous positive airway pressure (CPAP) treatment, mean platelet volume (MPV), and platelet distribution width (PDW), routinely assessed as part of the complete blood count. From 262 retrieved records from PubMed, the Web of Science, Scopus, and Google Scholar, 31 manuscripts were selected for a final analysis, 30 investigating MPV and 15 investigating PDW. MPV was not statistically different between OSAS patients and healthy controls; however, it progressively increased with disease severity. By contrast, OSAS patients had significantly higher PDW values than controls (SMD = 0.40, 95% CI: 0.25 to 0.56; p ˂ 0.001), and the difference increased with disease severity. In a univariate meta-regression, there were significant associations between the MPV and publication year, the apnoea-hypopnea index, and diabetes mellitus, while no associations were observed with the PDW. No significant between-group differences were observed in the subgroup analyses. These data suggest that PDW, and to a lesser extent, MPV, are potential biomarkers of OSAS and require further research to ascertain their pathophysiological significance (PROSPERO, CRD42023459413).

Angiopoietin-like proteins 8 knockout reduces intermittent hypoxia-induced vascular remodeling in a murine model of obstructive sleep apnea. Biochem Pharmacol 2021; 186:114502. [PMID: 33684391 DOI: 10.1016/j.bcp.2021.114502] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 10/28/2020] [Revised: 02/25/2021] [Accepted: 02/26/2021] [Indexed: 10/22/2022]
Abstract
OBJECTIVE Obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) is a major risk factor for cardiovascular mortality. Apnea-induced chronic intermittent hypoxia (CIH) is a primary pathophysiological manifestation of OSA that promotes various cardiovascular alterations, such as aortic vascular remodeling. In this study, we investigated the association between angiopoietin-like proteins 8 (ANGPTL8) and CIH-induced aortic vascular remodeling in mice. METHODS C57BL/6J male mice were divided into four groups: Normoxia group, ANGPTL8-/- group, CIH group, CIH + ANGPTL8-/- group. Mice in the normoxia group and ANGPTL8-/- group received no treatment, while mice in the CIH and CIH + ANGPTL8-/- group were subjected to CIH (21%-5% O2, 180 s/cycle, 10 h/day) for 6 weeks. At the end of the experiments, intima-media thickness (IMT), elastin disorganization, and aortic wall collagen abundance were assessed in vivo. Immunohistochemistry and Western-blot were used to detect endoplasmic reticulum stress (ERS) and aortic vascular smooth muscle cell proliferation. ANGPTL8 shRNA and ANGPL8 overexpression were used in aortic vascular smooth muscle cells to investigate the mechanism of ANGPTL8 in CIH. RESULTS Compared to the control group, CIH exposure significantly increased intima-media thickness (IMT), elastic fibers disorganization, and aortic wall collagen abundance. CIH also significantly increased blood pressure, induced hyperlipidemia, as well as the expression of ERS protein activating transcription factor-6 (ATF6) and aortic vascular smooth muscle cell proliferation. Contrary, ANGPTL8-/- significantly mitigated the CIH-induced vascular remodeling; ANGPTL8-/- decreased CIH-induced hypertension and hyperlipidemia, inhibited the protein expression of ATF6, and aortic vascular smooth muscle cell proliferation. Moreover, our in vitro study suggested that CIH could induce ANGPTL8 expression via hypoxia-inducible factor (HIF-1α); ANGPTL8 induced proliferation of aortic vascular smooth muscle cells via the ERS pathway. CONCLUSION ANGPTL8-/- can prevent CIH-induced aortic vascular remodeling, probably through the inhibition of the ERS pathway. Therefore, ANGPTL8 might be a potential target in CIH-induced aortic vascular remodeling.

Abstract
Subclinical abnormalities in cardiac and vascular structure reflect the adverse effects triggered by a variety of risk factors on the cardiovascular (CV) system thereby representing an intermediate step in the cardiovascular continuum; such alterations are recognized as reliable markers of increased cardiovascular risk in different clinical settings including obstructive sleep apnea (OSA). The mechanisms underlying subclinical organ damage (OD) in the OSA setting are multifactorial. Hypoxemia and hypercapnia, induced by repeated collapses of upper airways, have been suggested to trigger a cascade of events such as activation of the sympathetic tone, renin-angiotensin-aldosterone system leading to endothelial dysfunction, vasoconstriction, myocardial and vascular remodeling, and hypertension. Furthermore, coexisting non-haemodynamic alterations such as increased oxidative stress, release of inflammatory substances, enhanced lipolysis and insulin resistance have been reported to play a role in the pathogenesis of both cardiac and extra-cardiac OD. In this article we reviewed available evidence on the association between OSA and subclinical cardiac (i.e., left and right ventricular hypertrophy, left atrial dilatation) and extra-cardiac organ damage (i.e., carotid atherosclerosis, arterial stiffness, microvascular retinal changes, and microalbuminuria). This association is apparently stronger for cardiac and carotid subclinical damage than for other markers (i.e., arterial stiffness and retinal changes) and mostly evident in the setting of severe OSA.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Obstructive sleep apnea-hypopnea syndrome (OSAHS) is a widely prevalent problem with many complications, such as hypertension and cerebral vascular diseases. Atherosclerosis, whose most severe outcome is ischemic stroke, is reported being affected by OSAHS. The objective of this article is to investigate the differences of carotid atherosclerosis patients with or without OSAHS by a cross-sectional research. MATERIALS AND METHODS Patients diagnosed with carotid atherosclerosis by ultrasonography were recruited. They were requested to fill the primary screening OSAHS questionnaire. Patients with high tendency of OSAHS underwent polysomnography (PSG) tests into OSAHS group, and patients without OSAHS were into non-OSAHS group. Blood tests and medical history were collected. Carotid atherosclerosis severity was analyzed by carotid artery intima-media thickness (IMT), carotid plaque, blood flow velocity, etc. Differences between the two groups and subgroups were analyzed. RESULTS A total of 242 carotid atherosclerosis patients were enrolled including 118 non-OSAHS patients (38 males and 80 females) and 124 OSAHS patients (40 mild, 32 moderate, and 52 severe). Significant differences were found in PSV-ICA and EDV-ICA on both sides (p < 0.05) but no significant differences on IMT and velocity of CCV. CA patients with OSAHS were younger than ones without OSAHS. With the severity of OSAHS increasing, the age of CA patients decreased. The more severity of OSAHS, the younger the patients were. There were no significant differences in comparing cholesterol, triglyceride, HDL, LDL, and glucose. CONCLUSION As far as CIMT, carotid plaque, blood flow velocity, and blood lipid are concerned, the severity of CA is not affected by the severity of OSAHS accordantly. The relationship between OSAHS and CA may not be dose dependent. TRIAL REGISTRATION This study has been registered on clinical trials (No. NCT03665818).

Abstract
BACKGROUND Pediatric sleep-disordered breathing (SDB) correlated with respiratory conditions of snoring and hypopnea. Mean platelet volume (MPV) was an inflammatory marker, related to increased inflammatory condition of pediatric patients. Increase of MPV level may cause failure to thrive or increased upper airway infection rate. The aim of this study was to perform systematic review and meta-analysis to investigate the difference on MPV values for pediatric SDB, and compare the change on MPV after surgery in patients with pediatric SDB. METHODS A systemic review of the studies from PubMed, EMBASE, and Cochrane Library databases was conducted in March 2020, supported by reviewing of published articles for studies comparing MPV in pediatric SDB. Meta-analysis was used to compare the change of MPV in pediatric SDB, and sub-group analysis was also used to compare the MPV decrease after surgeries of adenoidectomy or adenotonsillectomy. RESULTS There were seven studies included in the review. Six of them including 963 subjects showed that a significant increase of MPV was noted in pediatric SDB compared to those in pediatric non-SDB (P < 0.05). Total standardized mean difference (SMD) in MPV between pediatric SDB and non-SDB was 0.51 (95% CI =0.30-0.72, P < 0.05). A significant decrease of MPV was found in pediatric SDB patients who underwent surgery (total SMD = - 0.36; 95% CI = - 0.70- -0.02, P < 0.05). Decreases of MPV after adenoidectomy and adenotonsillectomy were observed, but only the effect of adenotonsillectomy had a statistical significance (total SMD = - 0.72; 95% CI = - 1.18 - -0.26, P < 0.05). CONCLUSION The MPV was significantly higher in patients with pediatric SDB, indicating the presence of increased platelet activity in pediatric SDB patients. The level of MPV could be reduced by the two surgeries, especially adenotonsillectomy.

Abstract
PURPOSE OF REVIEW To critically review the literature describing links between mean platelet volume (MPV) and cardiovascular disease (CVD). We will focus on coronary artery disease (CAD). The MPV is measured routinely as part of a routine blood count. RECENT FINDINGS There is accumulating evidence showing that the MPV may predict CVD, as well as outcomes in patients with CAD. There is also evidence linking MPV and comorbidities (e.g. diabetes mellitus and impaired glycaemic control) that are expected in patients with CAD. The effect on MPV of drugs commonly used to treat CAD has not been clarified, but there is some evidence that they may exert a beneficial effect on the MPV. More specifically, the MPV may predict the effect of antiplatelet drugs (e.g. clopidogrel). There is also evidence relating MPV to stroke, atrial fibrillation, coronary artery ectasia and periprocedural outcomes after percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI). SUMMARY Measuring the MPV may prove useful in CVD risk assessment in patients with established CAD or at risk of developing CAD. Overall, there is evidence pointing to the role of MPV as a contributor rather than simple marker of CVD.

Abstract
BACKGROUND To analyze the association between obstructive sleep apnea syndrome (OSAS) and some hematological variables such as mean platelet volume (MPV), platelet distribution width (PDW), and the impact of positive airway pressure (PAP) treatment on these parameters. METHODS The participants of the present prospective study consist of 36 OSAS patients diagnosed with polysomnography and recommended PAP treatment and 30 healthy members as the control group. Complete blood analyses were conducted to the patient group twice; before the initiation of the PAP treatment and 1 month after regular PAP use. The control group was administered a complete blood analyses only once. Patient and control group were compared in terms of various parameters such as MPV, PDW, neutrophil-to-lymphocyte ratio (NLR), platelet-to-lymphocyte ratio (PLR), white blood cell (WBC) values, and platelet counts. RESULTS MPV value of the patient group was before and after PAP treatment significantly higher than the control group (respectively; Z = 2.246; p = 0.025, and Z = 2.033; p = 0.042). However, there were no statistically significant differences in the values before and after PAP treatment in the patient group (Z = 0.727; p = 0.467). In terms of platelet numbers and PDW values, no significant differences were determined (p > 0.05). CONCLUSION MPV value was significantly elevated in OSAS patients. However, the 1 month of PAP treatment was insufficient in decreasing elevated MPV values.

The subjects were divided into three groups based on the results of the respiratory disturbance index (RDI): mild (RDI 5-14, n=29), moderate (RDI 15-29, n=50), and severe (RDI≥30, n=101). The extent of carotid arterial calcification on each airway CT scan was quantified according to the modified Agatston scoring method. Differences among the three groups in clinical characteristics including age, gender, body mass index (BMI), comorbid disease, blood pressure, total cholesterol, and carotid arterial calcification score (CarACS) were analyzed. RESULTS The severe OSA group showed significantly stronger predominance for male and smoker, higher prevalence of diabetes, and larger BMI than those of mild and moderate OSA groups. The mean CarACS was significantly different among the three groups (mild RDI: 4.3±13.4, moderate RDI: 7.4±28.8, severe RDI: 48.6±121.6, P=0.011). Univariate linear regression showed that RDI, age, hypertension, male sex and diabetes significantly influenced on the CarACS. In a multivariate linear regression model, the CarACS was related to age, male sex, and diabetes. CONCLUSIONS The patients with severe OSA showed larger CarACS and a higher prevalence of atherosclerotic risk factors. The CarACS was correlated with severity of OSA, which might be more dependent on the conventional risk factors of atherosclerosis.

Abstract
Obstructive sleep apnea is a chronic condition characterized by recurrent episodes of apneas or hypopneas during sleep leading to intermittent hypoxemia and arousals. The prevalence of the sleep disordered breathing is estimated that almost 50% of men and 24% of women suffer from moderate to severe form of the disorder. Snoring, collapse of upper airways and intermittent hypoxia are main causes of smoldering systemic inflammation in patients suffering from obstructive sleep apnea. The systematic inflammation is considered one of the key mechanisms leading to significant cardiovascular complications. Blood platelets, formerly not even recognized as cells, are currently gaining attention as crucial players in the immune continuum. Platelet surface is endowed with receptors characteristic for cells classically belonging to the immune system, which enables them to recognize pathogens, immune complexes, and interact in a homo- and heterotypic aggregates. Platelets participate in the process of transcellular production of bioactive lipids by delivering both specific enzymes and substrate molecules. Despite their lack of nucleus, platelets synthetize proteins in a stimuli-dependent manner. Atherosclerosis and consequent cardiovascular complications result from disruption in homeostasis of both of the platelet roles: blood coagulation and inflammatory processes modulation. Platelet parameters, routinely evaluated as a part of complete blood count test, were proposed as markers of cardiovascular comorbidity in patients with obstructive sleep apnea. Platelets were found to be excessively activated in this group of patients, especially in obese subjects. Persistent activation results in enhanced spontaneous aggregability and change in cytokine production. Platelet-lymphocyte ratio was suggested as an independent marker for cardiovascular disease in obstructive sleep apnea syndrome and continuous positive air pressure therapy was found to have an impact on platelet parameters and phenotype. In this literature review we summarize the current knowledge on the subject of platelets involvement in obstructive sleep apnea syndrome and consider the possible pathways in which they contribute to cardiovascular comorbidity.

Abstract
Evidence suggests that there is platelet activation in obstructive sleep apnea syndrome (OSAS) and chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD). Our objective is to evaluate mean platelet volume (MPV) and platelet distribution width (PDW) in patients with overlap syndrome (OS), that is, concurrent COPD with OSAS. Mean platelet volume and PDW were assessed in consecutive patients who had undergone polysomnography and pulmonary function testing. They were divided into the following groups: controls (apnea-hypopnea index [AHI] <5/hour, and forced expiratory volume in 1st second [FEV1]/forced vital capacity [FVC] >70%), OSAS group (AHI ≥5/hour and FEV1/FVC >70%), and OS group (AHI ≥5/hour and FEV1/FVC <70%). A total of 485 patients (360 males and 125 females) were included. Mean platelet volume in controls was lower compared with the other groups: 10 ± 0.9 fL for controls versus 10.3 ± 1.2 fL for OSAS ( P = .006), versus 10.7 ± 1 fL for OS ( P < .001). Additionally, MPV was higher in OS group than OSAS: 10.7 ± 1 fL versus 10.3 ± 1.2 fL, respectively ( P = .002). Platelet distribution width was lower in controls compared with the other groups: 12.9 ± 2 fL for controls versus 13.6 ± 1.9 fL for OSAS ( P = .007), versus 13.8 ± 2.3 fL for OS ( P = .008), while there was no difference between OS and OSAS groups. Mean platelet volume and PDW are increased in patients with OS compared with healthy controls, with respiratory function being the major contributor in platelet activation in this series.

Abstract
Background Obstructive sleep apnea syndrome (OSAS) is characterized by chronic intermittent episodes of upper-airway obstruction with hypoxia and is associated with increased risk of cardiovascular diseases, including myocardial hypertrophy. Chronic intermittent hypoxia (CIH) has been shown to induce apoptosis in cardiomyocytes. However, the mechanisms of cardiomyocytes apoptosis under CIH largely remain unclear. Material/Methods We used male Sprague-Dawley rats and human cardiomyocyte cell line H9C2, and Annexin V/PI, Western blot analysis, co-immunoprecipitation, RT-PCR, immunohistochemistry, and TUNEL assay were carried out. Results We show that Bim was significantly up-regulated by CIH in cardiomyocytes, and the function of Bim in CIH-induced apoptosis was supported by the genetic suppression of Bim with si-RNA. We also observed that CIH-motivated expression of Bim was directly related to fork head box class O1 (FOXO1), which is increased in CIH. Genetic ablation and pharmacological inhibition of FOXO1 in cardiomyocytes attenuated CIH-induced apoptosis, hypertrophy, and features of perivascular fibrosis in cardiomyocytes in vitro and in vivo. Conclusions FOXO1 is a key integrator of the apoptosis signal transduction pathway, driving chronic intermittent hypoxia-induced cardiac hypertrophy, and inhibition of FOXO1 provides a potential target for the treatment of OSAS with cardiac hypertrophy.
