Yan Z, Xu Y, Li K, Liu L. The correlation between frailty index and incidence, mortality in obstructive sleep apnea: Evidence from NHANES. Heliyon 2024; 10:e32514. [PMID: 39183837 PMCID: PMC11341328 DOI: 10.1016/j.heliyon.2024.e32514] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 11/03/2023] [Revised: 06/03/2024] [Accepted: 06/05/2024] [Indexed: 08/27/2024] Open
Abstract
Background The emergence of obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) is marked by a growing trend towards younger individuals, while its developmental trajectory remains shrouded in uncertainty, accompanied by intricate prognostic implications. While frailty and sleep problems often coexist, the relationship between them remains unclear. Hence, this study aims to utilize the National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey (NHANES) database from 2005 to 2008 to analyze and explore the relationship between the level of frailty index (FI) and the risk of OSA incidence and survival outcomes. Materials and methods Specialized weighted complex survey design analysis software was employed for data analysis. Multivariate logistic regression models and restricted cubic splines (RCS) were utilized to assess the association between FI and OSA incidence in all participants. Additionally, a Cox proportional hazards model was established to estimate the association between FI and the hazard ratios (HRs) for all-cause mortality and cardiovascular disease (CVD) mortality. Results A total of 8524 participants were included in this study. Compared to the Non-frail group (FI ≤ 0.1), OSA risk increased with higher FI levels. In Model 3, adjusted for multiple covariates, the Pro-frail group (0.1 0.3) [OR = 2.32, 95 % CI (1.55, 3.48)] exhibited an average 31 %, 62 %, and 132 % increase in OSA risk, respectively. RCS results demonstrated a nonlinear dose-response relationship between OSA risk and FI levels, with an increasing trend (P = 0.004). The Cox model indicated that, except for the Pro-frail group, OSA-related mortality risk also increased with higher FI levels, with a more pronounced effect on CVD-related mortality. Conclusion This study supports the hypothesis that FI may be associated with an increased risk of OSA, with a higher emphasis on OSA-related mortality risk in Mildly frail and Moderately/Severely frail populations.

[PMID: 38592210 PMCID: PMC10931680 DOI: 10.3390/jcm13051386] [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: 01/31/2024] [Revised: 02/22/2024] [Accepted: 02/26/2024] [Indexed: 04/10/2024] Open
Abstract
BACKGROUND The prevalence of obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) is suggested to differ according to different age groups. While its prevalence has been extensively investigated among middle-aged and old individuals, very few studies have summarized its prevalence among young adults. The present study aimed to conduct a systematic review and meta-analysis of OSA prevalence among healthy adults aged 18-30 years in the general population. METHODS A search of Embase, Medline, and Web of Science databases for articles reporting the prevalence of OSA among young adults confirmed by objective diagnostic methods was completed by two reviewers. Studies identified and included in the review were summarized qualitatively. Additionally, a meta-analysis of prevalence rates was conducted using a random effects model. RESULTS 11 articles out of 5898 met the inclusion criteria and were included in the meta-analysis. The diagnostic thresholds, scoring criteria, and the type of used device varied substantially among all the studies. We found that the pooled prevalence of OSA among young adults was 16% (CI 95%, 8-29%, I2 = 92%, τ2 = 1.47). CONCLUSION The prevalence of OSA among young adults was found to be ~16%. However, a few factors diverged prevalence between the studies, such as hypopnea definition, AHI threshold, and type of device. Most of the studies included examined healthy volunteers, suggesting that the disease burden may be underestimated. Findings from our review highlight the need to include OSA-related assessment and intervention in the overall health care of young adults. By early detection and offered treatment, further complications related to comorbidities may be omitted.

Sleep Breath 2023; 27:2479-2490. [PMID: 37058215 PMCID: PMC10576010 DOI: 10.1007/s11325-023-02830-3] [Citation(s) in RCA: 1] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 12/14/2022] [Revised: 02/22/2023] [Accepted: 04/07/2023] [Indexed: 04/15/2023]
Abstract
BACKGROUND Psychoactive substance use (i.e., nicotine, alcohol, and caffeine) has substantial effects on sleep architecture in healthy individuals, but their effects in those with obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) have not been well described. We aimed to describe the association between psychoactive substance use and sleep characteristics and daytime symptoms in individuals with untreated OSA. METHODS We performed a secondary, cross-sectional analysis of The Apnea Positive Pressure Long-term Efficacy Study (APPLES). Exposures included current smoking, alcohol and caffeine use in individuals with untreated OSA. Outcome domains included subjective and objective sleep characteristics, daytime symptoms, and comorbid conditions. Linear or logistic regression assessed the association between substance use and each domain (e.g., self-reported sleep duration, total polysomnographic sleep time, sleepiness, and anxiety). RESULTS Of the 919 individuals with untreated OSA, 116 (12.6%) were current cigarette smokers, 585 (63.7%) were moderate or heavy alcohol users, and 769 (83.7%) were moderate or heavy caffeine users. Participants were on average 52.2±11.9 years old, 65.2% were male with a median BMI of 30.6 (IQR: 27.2, 35.9, kg/m2). Current smokers exhibited lower sleep duration (0.3 h), longer sleep latency (5 min) compared with non-smokers (all p-values < 0.05). People with heavy or moderate alcohol use exhibited more REM sleep (2.5 and 5% of total sleep time respectively), as did those with moderate caffeine use (2%, p-values < 0.05). The combined smoker plus caffeine group exhibited shorter sleep duration (0.4 h, p-value < 0.05) and higher risk for chronic pain [Odds Ratio (95%CI) = 4.83 (1.57, 14.9) compared with non-users. CONCLUSIONS Psychoactive substance use is associated with sleep characteristics and clinically relevant correlates in people with untreated OSA. Further investigation into the effects that various substances have on this population may present opportunities to understand disease mechanisms more fully and increase the effectiveness of treatment in OSA.

Abstract
Pain problems are common in patients with obstructive sleep apnea (OSA), but few studies have thoroughly evaluated pain in these patients. The objective of this study was to examine the prevalence and characteristics of pain in moderate-to-severe OSA patients and the effect of continuous positive airway pressure (CPAP) treatment. Moderate-to-severe OSA patients and healthy controls (HC) completed the Short Form McGill Pain Questionnaire (SF-MPQ) and a portion of the Brief Pain Inventory (BPI) Short Form to assess pain characteristics. The Epworth Sleepiness Scale (ESS), the Short Form-36 (SF-36), and the Hospital Anxiety and Depression Scale (HADS) were used to measure daytime sleepiness, health-related quality of life (HRQoL), and psychological status, respectively. The OSA patients with pain were divided into a CPAP-treated group and a CPAP-untreated group based on their adherence to CPAP. The subjects' pain intensity was reassessed after 3 months. The prevalence of pain was 57.5% in OSA versus 27.1% in HC (p < 0.001). Head (39.0%) accounted for the highest proportion of overall pain locations in subjects with OSA, with 28.8% of OSA patients experiencing headaches. Pain in OSA was associated with impaired HRQoL and psychological problems. Patients with very severe OSA had an increased risk for pain problems (OR: 7.000, p = 0.041). Associated factors for pain intensity in OSA included age, ESS ≥ 9.0, and lowest pulse oximetry (LSpO2) < 80.0%. Pain intensity in OSA decreased significantly after CPAP treatment (p < 0.001). Pain was prevalent among patients with moderate-to-severe OSA and was associated with depression, anxiety, and a lower HRQoL. Patients with very severe OSA had an increased risk for pain problems. The intensity of pain in OSA can be predicted by age, ESS ≥ 9.0, and LSpO2 < 80.0%, and it can be alleviated through CPAP treatment.

Abstract
PURPOSE To investigate the relationship between pain intensity and insomnia frequency in women with a diagnosis of deep endometriosis. The hypothesis is that these patients with moderate or severe pain have a higher frequency of insomnia than those with mild or no pain. METHODS We conducted a cross-sectional study of women with deep endometriosis categorized by pelvic pain intensity based on a numerical scale. Insomnia was assessed through a self-reported questionnaire, and multiple logistic regression was used to control for confounders between pain and insomnia. RESULTS We included 234 women in the study, 39 (17%) without pelvic pain; 66 (29%) with mild pain; 53 (23%) moderate pain; and 76 (32%) severe pain. Twenty-nine (74%) pain-free women and 50 (75%) with mild pain had no insomnia; only 3 (8%) of the former and 3 (4%) of the latter group had severe insomnia. However, twenty-nine (55%) women with moderate pain and 37 (48%) with severe pain had insomnia. The logistic regression model showed that moderate to severe pain increased insomnia 2.8 times, twice for every 10 years of pain duration, and twice in women with low education levels. CONCLUSIONS Women with moderate or severe pain had a high frequency of insomnia, increasing management complexity in patients with deep endometriosis. Pain intensity, pain duration, and low education level increased the chance of insomnia in those patients.

Abstract
The science of temporomandibular disorder (TMD) pain and its management has gone through significant changes during the last several decades. The authors strongly feel that the effect of systemic factors influencing TMD pain has been largely overlooked and poorly accounted for, even in established pain-management programs and protocols. The hope is that this article will act as a wake-up call for the pain management community to consider the importance of adequate knowledge of the systemic factors that affect the experience of TMD pain by the patient.

Abstract
Obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) is a disorder characterized by chronic intermittent hypoxia and sleep fragmentation due to recurring airway collapse during sleep. It is highly prevalent in modern societies, and due to its pleiotropic influence on the organism and numerous sequelae, it burdens patients and physicians. Neurotrophins (NTs), proteins that modulate the functioning and development of the central nervous system, such as brain-derived neurotrophic factor (BDNF), have been associated with OSA, primarily due to their probable involvement in offsetting the decline in cognitive functions which accompanies OSA. However, NTs influence multiple aspects of biological functioning, such as immunity. Thus, extensive evaluation of their role in OSA might enlighten the mechanism behind some of its elusive features, such as the increased risk of developing an immune-mediated disease or the association of OSA with cardiovascular diseases. In this review, we examine the interactions between NTs and OSA and discuss their contribution to OSA pathophysiology, complications, as well as comorbidities.

Abstract
Obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) is a chronic disorder characterized by recurrent episodes of apnea and hypopnea during sleep. It is associated with various cardiovascular and metabolic complications, including type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) and obesity. Many pathways can be responsible for T2DM development in OSA patients, e.g., those related to HIF-1 and SIRT1 expression. Moreover, epigenetic mechanisms, such as miRNA181a or miRNA199, are postulated to play a pivotal role in this link. It has been proven that OSA increases the occurrence of circadian clock disruption, which is also a risk factor for metabolic disease development. Circadian clock disruption impairs the metabolism of glucose, lipids, and the secretion of bile acids. Therefore, OSA-induced circadian clock disruption may be a potential, complex, underlying pathway involved in developing and exacerbating metabolic diseases among OSA patients. The current paper summarizes the available information pertaining to the relationship between OSA and circadian clock disruption in the context of potential mechanisms leading to metabolic disorders.

Abstract
Obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) is a relatively common disease in the general population. Besides its interaction with many comorbidities, it can also interact with potentially painful conditions and modulate its course. The association between OSA and pain modulation has recently been a topic of concern for many scientists. The mechanism underlying OSA-related pain connection has been linked with different pathophysiological changes in OSA and various pain mechanisms. Furthermore, it may cause both chronic and acute pain aggravation as well as potentially influencing the antinociceptive mechanism. Characteristic changes in OSA such as nocturnal hypoxemia, sleep fragmentation, and systemic inflammation are considered to have a curtailing impact on pain perception. Hypoxemia in OSA has been proven to have a significant impact on increased expression of proinflammatory cytokines influencing the hyperalgesic priming of nociceptors. Moreover, hypoxia markers by themselves are hypothesized to modulate intracellular signal transduction in neurons and have an impact on nociceptive sensitization. Pain management in patients with OSA may create problems arousing from alterations in neuropeptide systems and overexpression of opioid receptors in hypoxia conditions, leading to intensification of side effects, e.g., respiratory depression and increased opioid sensitivity for analgesic effects. In this paper, we summarize the current knowledge regarding pain and pain treatment in OSA with a focus on molecular mechanisms leading to nociceptive modulation.
