Abstract
PURPOSE OF REVIEW Sleep is an important component of cardiovascular (CV) health. This review summarizes the complex relationship between sleep and CV disease (CVD). Additionally, we describe the data supporting the treatment of sleep disturbances in preventing and treating CVD. RECENT FINDINGS Recent guidelines recommend screening for obstructive sleep apnea in patients with atrial fibrillation. New data continues to demonstrate the importance of sleep quality and duration for CV health. There is a complex bidirectional relationship between sleep health and CVD. Sleep disturbances have systemic effects that contribute to the development of CVD, including hypertension, coronary artery disease, heart failure, and arrhythmias. Additionally, CVD contributes to the development of sleep disturbances. However, more data are needed to support the role of screening for and treatment of sleep disorders for the prevention of CVD.

Abstract
Nocturia, the need to urinate at night, is a common symptom in patients with obstructive sleep apnoea (OSA). Continuous positive airway pressure treatment can reduce nocturia in some patients, but the underlying mechanisms are complex and not fully understood. OSA affects the autonomic nervous system, oxidative stress and endothelial damage. Furthermore, the commonly held theory attributing polyuria to a false signal of cardiac overload and response natriuresis has limitations. A comprehensive approach to the management of nocturia in OSA, considering factors such as comorbidities, medication use, alcohol consumption and lifestyle, is needed. Effective management of nocturia in OSA requires a multidisciplinary approach, and urologists should be aware of the potential effect of OSA on physiology and refer patients for further testing at a sleep centre. In addition to continuous positive airway pressure, other interventions such as oral appliances and surgical obstruction treatment could be beneficial for some patients. Overall, understanding the complex interplay between OSA and nocturia is crucial for optimizing patient outcomes.

Abstract
Patients with obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) are liable to have resistant hypertension (RH) associated with unfavorable cardiovascular events. It is of necessity to predict OSA patients who are susceptible to resistant hypertension. Hence, we conducted a retrospective study based on the clinical records of OSA patients admitted to Yixing Hospital Affiliated to Jiangsu University from January 2018 to December 2022. According to different time periods, patients diagnosed between January 2018 and December 2021 were included in the training set (n = 539) for modeling, and those diagnosed between January 2022 and December 2022 were enrolled into the validation set (n = 259) for further assessment. The incidence of RH in the training set and external validation set was comparable (P = 0.396). The related clinical data of patients enrolled were collected and analyzed through univariate analysis and least absolute shrinkage and selection operator (LASSO) logistic regression analysis to identify independent risk factors and construct a nomogram. Finally, five variables were confirmed as independent risk factors for OSA patients with RH, including smoking, heart disease, neck circumference, AHI and T90. The nomogram established on the basis of variables above was shown to have good discrimination and calibration in both the training set and validation set. Decision curve analysis indicated that the nomogram was useful for a majority of OSA patients. Therefore, our nomogram might be useful to identify OSA patients at high risk of developing RH and facilitate the individualized management of OSA patients in clinical practice.

Long-term health outcomes for patients with obstructive sleep apnea: placing the Agency for Healthcare Research and Quality report in context-a multisociety commentary.

Abstract
This multisociety commentary critically examines the Agency for Healthcare Research and Quality (AHRQ) final report and systematic review on long-term health outcomes in obstructive sleep apnea. The AHRQ report was commissioned by the Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services and particularly focused on the long-term patient-centered outcomes of continuous positive airway pressure, the variability of sleep-disordered breathing metrics, and the validity of these metrics as surrogate outcomes. This commentary raises concerns regarding the AHRQ report conclusions and their potential implications for policy decisions. A major concern expressed in this commentary is that the AHRQ report inadequately acknowledges the benefits of continuous positive airway pressure for several established, long-term clinically important outcomes including excessive sleepiness, motor vehicle accidents, and blood pressure. While acknowledging the limited evidence for the long-term benefits of continuous positive airway pressure treatment, especially cardiovascular outcomes, as summarized by the AHRQ report, this commentary reviews the limitations of recent randomized controlled trials and nonrandomized controlled studies and the challenges of conducting future randomized controlled trials. A research agenda to address these challenges is proposed including study designs that may include both high quality randomized controlled trials and nonrandomized controlled studies. This commentary concludes by highlighting implications for the safety and quality of life for the millions of people living with obstructive sleep apnea if the AHRQ report alone was used by payers to limit coverage for the treatment of obstructive sleep apnea while not considering the totality of available evidence.

Cardiovasc Diagn Ther 2023; 13:994-1002. [PMID: 38162113 PMCID: PMC10753246 DOI: 10.21037/cdt-23-323] [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: 07/29/2023] [Accepted: 10/27/2023] [Indexed: 01/03/2024]
Abstract
Background Obstructive sleep apnea syndrome (OSAS) combined with heart failure (HF) has become a serious disease that threatens human health. Therapeutic interventions targeting OSAS have been shown to improve outcomes in patients with HF, so the identification of severe OSAS in HF is critical. Carbohydrate antigen 125 (CA125) is associated with inflammation and volume overload. The levels of CA125 are elevated in the serum of patients with HF and might be further elevated in patients with HF and OSAS. The aim of this study was to measure CA125 levels in patients with HF with and without OSAS and to analyze affecting factors. Methods In this single-center retrospective cohort study, a total of 95 patients diagnosed with HF hospitalized in Zhongda Hospital from April 2021 to April 2022 were recruited, including 55 patients with OSAS and 40 patients without OSAS. Participants with a history of central sleep apnea syndrome, severe chronic obstructive pulmonary disease, tumors, severe infection, or who were pregnant were excluded. The histories of the participants were recorded, and laboratory examinations were performed. Binary logistic regression analysis was performed to determine the relationship between serum CA125 levels and OSAS in patients with HF. Results The serum CA125 levels were higher in the HF + OSAS group than in the HF group (29.60 vs. 9.68 U/mL, P<0.001). According to the univariate analysis, CA125 (>35 U/mL) was significantly related to pleural effusion, acute HF, apnea-hypopnea index (AHI), left ventricular ejection fraction (LVEF) and N-terminal pro-B-type natriuretic peptide (NT-proBNP) levels. Finally, the AHI demonstrated statistical significance in multiple analyses (OR 1.070, 95% CI: 1.019-1.124, P=0.006). Spearman rank correlation coefficient analysis showed that CA125 was positively correlated with AHI, and Ln(CA125) (Ln is the natural logarithm based on e) gradually increased with increasing AHI (r=0.551, P<0.0001). Conclusions The levels of CA125 were further increased in patients with HF and OSAS, and CA125 (>35 U/mL) was positively correlated with AHI. As a biomarker associated with inflammation and congestion, serum CA125 may have certain value in the diagnosis of patients with HF combined with OSAS.

Abstract
PURPOSE OF REVIEW This review aims to describe recent literature, guidelines, and approaches to reveal and reduce hypertension burden in disadvantaged populations. Hypertension is a major global health issue and the most potent risk factor for cardiovascular disease, morbidity, and mortality. It disproportionally affects vulnerable populations, including low-, middle-, and high-income countries. Specifically, the burden of hypertension is higher in US Black adults, and addressing social determinants of health is crucial for reducing disparities among vulnerable populations worldwide. RECENT FINDINGS Multifactorial approaches, including lifestyle modifications and combination drug therapy, are essential in managing hypertension. Community-based interventions, team-based care, and telehealth strategies can also improve hypertension control. Additionally, renal nerve denervation is a potential treatment for resistant hypertension. Overall, to reduce the global hypertension burden among vulnerable populations, emphasis should be placed on equitable healthcare access and application of evidence-based medicine.
