[PMID: 38533250 PMCID: PMC10964782 DOI: 10.2147/nss.s443557] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 10/28/2023] [Accepted: 03/03/2024] [Indexed: 03/28/2024] Open
Abstract
Background Observational studies have yielded conflicting evidence concerning the relationships between obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) and bone mineral density (BMD). As the exact causal inferences remain inconclusive, we conducted a two-sample Mendelian randomization (MR) to identify the causal associations between OSA and BMD. Methods Single-nucleotide polymorphisms associated with OSA were extracted from the FinnGen study. Summary statistics for 10 BMD measured at different age or skeletal sites were obtained from the publicly available IEU GWAS database. Inverse-variance weighted (IVW) method was chosen as the primary analysis, combined with several sensitivity analyses to evaluate the robustness of results. The study design included two-sample MR and network MR. Results Our primary MR analysis revealed that genetically predicted OSA was positively linked to increased forearm BMD (β = 0.24, 95% confidence interval [CI]: 0.06-0.41, p = 0.009) and heel BMD (β=0.10, 95% CI = 0.02-0.18, p = 0.018), while no significant causal relationships were observed between OSA and total body BMD, lumbar spine BMD, or femoral neck BMD (all p > 0.05). Network MR suggests that OSA might act as a mediating factor in the effect of BMI on forearm BMD and heel BMD, with a mediated portion estimated at 73% and 84%, respectively. Conclusion Our findings provide support for a causal relationship between genetically predicted OSA and increased forearm BMD and heel BMD. Furthermore, our results suggest that OSA may play a role in mediating the influence of BMI on BMD.

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

Abstract
Objectives: Some ceRNA associated with lncRNA have been considered as possible diagnostic and therapeutic biomarkers for obstructive sleep apnea (OSA). We intend to identify the potential hub genes for the development of OSA, which will provide a foundation for the study of the molecular mechanism underlying OSA and for the diagnosis and treatment of OSA.Methods: We collected plasma samples from OSA patients and healthy controls for the detection of ceRNA using a chip. Based on the differential expression of lncRNA, we identified the target genes of miRNA that bind to lncRNAs. We then constructed lncRNA-related ceRNA networks, performed functional enrichment analysis and protein-protein interaction analysis, and performed internal and external validation of the expression levels of stable hub genes. Then, we conducted LASSO regression analysis on the stable hub genes, selected relatively significant genes to construct a simple and easy-to-use nomogram, validated the nomogram, and constructed the core ceRNA sub-network of key genes.Results: We successfully identified 282 DElncRNAs and 380 DEmRNAs through differential analysis, and we constructed an OSA-related ceRNA network consisting of 292 miRNA-lncRNAs and 41 miRNA-mRNAs. Through PPI and hub gene selection, we obtained 7 additional robust hub genes, CCND2, WT1, E2F2, IRF1, BAZ2A, LAMC1, and DAB2. Using LASSO regression analysis, we created a nomogram with four predictors (CCND2, WT1, E2F2, and IRF1), and its area under the curve (AUC) is 1. Finally, we constructed a core ceRNA sub-network composed of 74 miRNA-lncRNA and 7 miRNA-mRNA nodes.Conclusion: Our study provides a new foundation for elucidating the molecular mechanism of lncRNA in OSA and for diagnosing and treating OSA.

Abstract
Background American Academy of Sleep Medicine guidelines suggest that clinical prediction algorithms can be used to screen patients with obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) without replacing polysomnography, the gold standard. Objective We aimed to identify, gather, and analyze existing machine learning approaches that are being used for disease screening in adult patients with suspected OSA. Methods We searched the MEDLINE, Scopus, and ISI Web of Knowledge databases to evaluate the validity of different machine learning techniques, with polysomnography as the gold standard outcome measure and used the Prediction Model Risk of Bias Assessment Tool (Kleijnen Systematic Reviews Ltd) to assess risk of bias and applicability of each included study. Results Our search retrieved 5479 articles, of which 63 (1.15%) articles were included. We found 23 studies performing diagnostic model development alone, 26 with added internal validation, and 14 applying the clinical prediction algorithm to an independent sample (although not all reporting the most common discrimination metrics, sensitivity or specificity). Logistic regression was applied in 35 studies, linear regression in 16, support vector machine in 9, neural networks in 8, decision trees in 6, and Bayesian networks in 4. Random forest, discriminant analysis, classification and regression tree, and nomogram were each performed in 2 studies, whereas Pearson correlation, adaptive neuro-fuzzy inference system, artificial immune recognition system, genetic algorithm, supersparse linear integer models, and k-nearest neighbors algorithm were each performed in 1 study. The best area under the receiver operating curve was 0.98 (0.96-0.99) for age, waist circumference, Epworth Somnolence Scale score, and oxygen saturation as predictors in a logistic regression. Conclusions Although high values were obtained, they still lacked external validation results in large cohorts and a standard OSA criteria definition.

Abstract
Obstructive sleep apnea is the most common type of sleep breathing disorder. Therefore, the purpose of our research is to construct and verify an objective and easy-to-use nomogram that can accurately predict a patient's risk of obstructive sleep apnea. In this study, we retrospectively collected the data of patients undergoing polysomnography at the Sleep Medicine Center of the First Affiliated Hospital of Guangzhou Medical University. Participants were randomly assigned to a training cohort (50%) and a validation cohort (50%). Logistic regression and Lasso regression models were used to reduce data dimensions, select factors and construct the nomogram. C-index, calibration curve, decision curve analysis and clinical impact curve analysis were used to evaluate the identification, calibration and clinical effectiveness of the nomogram. Nomograph validation was performed in the validation cohort. The study included 1035 people in the training cohort and 1078 people in the validation cohort. Logistic and Lasso regression analysis identified age, gender, diastolic blood pressure, body mass index, neck circumference and Epworth Sleepiness Scale as the predictive factors included in the nomogram. The training cohort (C-index = 0.741) and validation cohort (C-index = 0.745) had better identification and calibration effects. The areas under the curve of the nomogram and STOP-Bang were 0.741 (0.713-0.767) and 0.728 (0.700-0.755), respectively. Decision curve analysis and clinical impact curve analysis showed that the nomogram is clinically useful. We have established a concise and practical nomogram that will help doctors better determine the priority of patients referred to the sleep centre.

Development and Validation of a Nomogram for Predicting Obstructive Sleep Apnea in Patients with Pulmonary Arterial Hypertension. Nat Sci Sleep 2022; 14:1375-1386. [PMID: 35971464 PMCID: PMC9375580 DOI: 10.2147/nss.s372447] [Citation(s) in RCA: 2] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 04/27/2022] [Accepted: 07/22/2022] [Indexed: 11/30/2022] Open
Abstract
PURPOSE Patients with pulmonary arterial hypertension (PAH) are at high risk for obstructive sleep apnea (OSA), which may adversely affect pulmonary hemodynamics and long-term prognosis. However, there is no clinical prediction model to evaluate the probability of OSA among patients with PAH. Our study aimed to develop and validate a nomogram for predicting OSA in the setting of PAH. PATIENTS AND METHODS From May 2020 to November 2021, we retrospectively analyzed the medical records of 258 patients diagnosed with PAH via right-heart catheterization. All participants underwent overnight cardiorespiratory polygraphy for OSA assessment. General clinical materials and biochemical measurements were collected and compared between PAH patients with or without OSA. Lasso regression was performed to screen potential predictors. Multivariable logistic regression analysis was conducted to establish the nomogram. Concordance index, calibration curve, and decision curve analysis were used to determine the discrimination, calibration, and clinical usefulness of the nomogram. RESULTS OSA was present in 26.7% of the PAH patients, and the prevalence did not differ significantly between male (29.7%) and female (24.3%) patients. Six variables were selected to construct the nomogram, including age, body mass index, hypertension, uric acid, glycated hemoglobin, and interleukin-6 levels. Based on receiver operating characteristic analysis, the nomogram demonstrated favorable discrimination accuracy with an area under the curve (AUC) of 0.760 for predicting OSA, exhibiting a better predictive value in contrast to ESS (AUC = 0.528) (P < 0.001). Decision curve analysis and clinical impact curve analysis also indicated the clinical utility of the nomogram. CONCLUSION By establishing a comprehensive and practical nomogram, we were able to predict the presence of OSA in patients with PAH, which may facilitate the early identification of patients that benefit from further diagnostic confirmation and intervention.
