Abstract
Disorders of autonomic functions are typically characterized by disturbances in multiple organ systems. These disturbances are often comorbidities of common and rare diseases, such as epilepsy, sleep apnea, Rett syndrome, congenital heart disease or mitochondrial diseases. Characteristic of many autonomic disorders is the association with intermittent hypoxia and oxidative stress, which can cause or exaggerate a variety of other autonomic dysfunctions, making the treatment and management of these syndromes very complex. In this review we discuss the cellular mechanisms by which intermittent hypoxia can trigger a cascade of molecular, cellular and network events that result in the dysregulation of multiple organ systems. We also describe the importance of computational approaches, artificial intelligence and the analysis of big data to better characterize and recognize the interconnectedness of the various autonomic and non-autonomic symptoms. These techniques can lead to a better understanding of the progression of autonomic disorders, ultimately resulting in better care and management.

Am J Respir Crit Care Med 2023; 207:899-907. [PMID: 36449386 PMCID: PMC10111996 DOI: 10.1164/rccm.202203-0580oc] [Citation(s) in RCA: 11] [Impact Index Per Article: 11.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 03/24/2022] [Accepted: 11/29/2022] [Indexed: 12/02/2022] Open
Abstract
Rationale: Bedside biomarkers that allow early identification of infants with bronchopulmonary dysplasia-associated pulmonary hypertension (BPD-PH) are critically important, given the higher risk of death in these infants. Objectives: We hypothesized that infants with BPD-PH have patterns of intermittent hypoxemia (IH) that differ from infants with BPD without PH. Methods: We conducted a matched case-control study of extremely preterm infants from 22 weeks 0 days to 28 weeks 6 days born between 2018 and 2020 at the University of Alabama at Birmingham. BPD-PH status was determined using echocardiographic data performed after postnatal Day 28. Physiologic data were compared between infants with BPD-PH (cases) and BPD alone (control subjects). Receiver operating characteristic (ROC) analysis estimated the predictive ability of cumulative hypoxemia, desaturation frequency, and duration of intermittent hypoxemic events in the week preceding echocardiography to discriminate between cases and control subjects. Measurements and Main Results: Forty infants with BPD-PH were compared with 40 infants with BPD alone. Infants with and without PH had a similar frequency of IH events, but infants with PH had more prolonged hypoxemic events for desaturations below 80% (7 s vs. 6 s; P = 0.03) and 70% (105 s vs. 58 s; P = 0.008). Among infants with BPD-PH, infants who died had longer hypoxemic events below 70% (145 s vs. 72 s; P = 0.01). Using the duration of hypoxemic events below 70%, the areas under the ROC curves for diagnosis of BPD-PH and death in BPD-PH infants were 0.71 and 0.77, respectively. Conclusions: Longer duration of intermittent hypoxemic events was associated both with a diagnosis of BPD-PH and with death among infants with BPD-PH.

Recent Insights into the Measurement of Carbon Dioxide Concentrations for Clinical Practice in Respiratory Medicine. SENSORS (BASEL, SWITZERLAND) 2021; 21:5636. [PMID: 34451079 PMCID: PMC8402333 DOI: 10.3390/s21165636] [Citation(s) in RCA: 3] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 06/26/2021] [Revised: 08/06/2021] [Accepted: 08/16/2021] [Indexed: 12/28/2022]
Abstract
In the field of respiratory clinical practice, the importance of measuring carbon dioxide (CO2) concentrations cannot be overemphasized. Within the body, assessment of the arterial partial pressure of CO2 (PaCO2) has been the gold standard for many decades. Non-invasive assessments are usually predicated on the measurement of CO2 concentrations in the air, usually using an infrared analyzer, and these data are clearly important regarding climate changes as well as regulations of air quality in buildings to ascertain adequate ventilation. Measurements of CO2 production with oxygen consumption yield important indices such as the respiratory quotient and estimates of energy expenditure, which may be used for further investigation in the various fields of metabolism, obesity, sleep disorders, and lifestyle-related issues. Measures of PaCO2 are nowadays performed using the Severinghaus electrode in arterial blood or in arterialized capillary blood, while the same electrode system has been modified to enable relatively accurate non-invasive monitoring of the transcutaneous partial pressure of CO2 (PtcCO2). PtcCO2 monitoring during sleep can be helpful for evaluating sleep apnea syndrome, particularly in children. End-tidal PCO2 is inferior to PtcCO2 as far as accuracy, but it provides breath-by-breath estimates of respiratory gas exchange, while PtcCO2 reflects temporal trends in alveolar ventilation. The frequency of monitoring end-tidal PCO2 has markedly increased in light of its multiple applications (e.g., verify endotracheal intubation, anesthesia or mechanical ventilation, exercise testing, respiratory patterning during sleep, etc.).

Intermittent hypoxia-related alterations in vascular structure and function: a systematic review and meta-analysis of rodent data. Eur Respir J 2021; 59:13993003.00866-2021. [PMID: 34413154 DOI: 10.1183/13993003.00866-2021] [Citation(s) in RCA: 13] [Impact Index Per Article: 4.3] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 03/23/2021] [Accepted: 07/25/2021] [Indexed: 12/09/2022]
Abstract
Obstructive Sleep Apnea and the related intermittent hypoxia (IH) are widely recognised as risk factors for incident cardiovascular diseases. Numerous studies support the deleterious vascular impact of IH in rodents but an overall interpretation is challenging owing to heterogeneity in rodent species investigated and the severity and duration of IH exposure.To clarify this major issue, we conducted a systematic review and meta-analysis to quantify the impact of IH on systemic artery structure and function depending on the different IH exposure designs.We searched PubMed, Embase and Web of Sciences and included 125 articles in a meta-analysis, among them 112 using wild-type rodents and 13 using Apolipoprotein E knock-out mice. We used the standardised mean difference (SMD) to compare results between studies.IH significantly increased mean arterial pressure (+13.90 mmHg (95% CI [11.88; 15.92]), systolic and diastolic blood pressure. Meta-regressions showed that mean arterial pressure change was associated with strain and year of publication. IH altered vasodilation in males but not in females, and increased endothelin-1-induced, but not phenylephrine-induced, vasoconstriction. Intima-media thickness significantly increased upon IH exposure (SMD 1.10 [0.58; 1.62], absolute values: +5.23 (2.81-7.84)). This increase was observed in mice but not in rats, and was negatively associated with age. Finally IH increased atherosclerotic plaque size in ApoE-/- mice (SMD 1.08 [0.80; 1.37]).To conclude, our meta-analysis established that IH, independently of other confounders, has a strong effect on vascular structure and physiology. Our findings support the interest of identifying and treating sleep apnea in routine cardiology practice.
