Front Oncol 2024; 14:1346809. [PMID: 39070143 PMCID: PMC11272613 DOI: 10.3389/fonc.2024.1346809] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 11/29/2023] [Accepted: 06/18/2024] [Indexed: 07/30/2024] Open
Abstract
Background Previous cohort studies conducted on large populations have suggested a potential association between obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) and an elevated risk of developing lung cancer. However, limited research has comprehensively investigated the correlation between the two conditions, and the causal effect remains unknown. Methods A comprehensive and systematic search was conducted across various databases, including PubMed, Web of Science, Cochrane Library, and Embase, from their inception dates to November 1, 2023. To assess the relationship between OSA and lung cancer, a meta-analysis was performed. Additionally, a two-sample Mendelian randomization (MR) study was conducted using summary data. The datasets included 336,659 individuals from the FinnGen study for OSA and 27,209 individuals from the International Lung Cancer Consortium study, as well as 420,473 individuals from the UK Biobank study for lung cancer. The estimates from each study were aggregated using the inverse variance-weighted method. Results Data from six population-based cohort studies, encompassing 6,589,725 individuals, indicated a significant increase in the risk of developing lung cancer among patients with OSA (HR 1.28, 95% CI 1.07-1.54). However, the MR analysis did not support a causal relationship between OSA and lung cancer (OR 1.001, 95% CI 0.929-1.100). This lack of association was consistent across specific subtypes of lung cancer, including non-small-cell lung cancer (OR 1.000, 95% CI 0.999-1.000, p = 0.974), lung adenocarcinoma (OR 0.996, 95% CI 0.906-1.094, p = 0.927), and squamous cell lung carcinoma (OR 1.034, 95% CI 0.937-1.140, p = 0.507). Conclusions Our meta-analysis findings suggest an elevated risk of lung cancer among individuals with OSA. However, the MR analysis did not provide evidence supporting a causal relationship between OSA and lung cancer. Further investigation is required to uncover the underlying factors contributing to the observed association between OSA and lung cancer risk.

Abstract
Current knowledge regarding the relationship between obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) and the risk of lung cancer is limited. This study aimed to evaluate associations between OSA and the incidence of lung cancer based on the Korean National Health Information Database. The study outcome was the incidence of newly diagnosed lung cancer, and a Cox proportional hazards model was used for analysis. A total of 181,070 adult patients newly diagnosed with OSA between 2011 and 2018 were matched with those without OSA by up to 1:5 propensity score matching based on age and sex. During follow-up over (mean ± standard deviation) 9.1 ± 2.0 years, 2614 incident cases of lung cancer were identified. The incidence rate was 39.51 per 100,000 person-years in the OSA group, and 24.93 per 100,000 person-years in the control group. After adjusting for income and the presence of comorbidities, the association remained significant (hazard ratio [HR] 1.95, 95% confidence interval [CI] 1.74-2.18, p-value < 0.001). The adjusted HR for incident lung cancer was 2.14 (95% CI 1.69-2.70) in female patients with OSA, and 1.90 (95% CI 1.67-2.16) in male patients with OSA. The risk of incident lung cancer increased with age, with a HR of 2.99 (95% CI 2.46-3.64) in those aged ≥ 65 years. This nationwide study showed an independent association between OSA and an increased risk of lung cancer in the Korean population.

Abstract
BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVES OSA is a known medical condition that is associated with several comorbidities and affect patients' quality of life. The association between OSA and lung cancer remains debated. Some studies reported increased prevalence of OSA in patients with lung cancer. We aimed to assess predictors of moderate-to-severe OSA in patients with lung cancer. METHODS We enrolled 153 adult patients who were newly diagnosed with lung cancer. Cardiorespiratory monitoring was performed using home sleep apnea device. We carried out Univariate and multivariate logistic regression analysis on multiple parameters including age, gender, smoking status, neck circumference, waist circumference, BMI, stage and histopathology of lung cancer, presence of superior vena cava obstruction, and performance status to find out the factors that are independently associated with a diagnosis of moderate-to-severe OSA. RESULTS Our results suggest that poor performance status is the most significant predictor of moderate to severe OSA in patients with lung cancer after controlling for important confounders. CONCLUSION Performance status is a predictor of moderate to severe OSA in patients with lung cancer in our population of middle eastern ethnicity.

Abstract
The association between lung cancer and obstructive sleep apnea has remained a matter of debate for years. Obstructive sleep apnea is thought to increase the incidence of lung cancer due to intermittent hypoxaemia and sleep fragmentation. The aim of this study is to assess the prevalence of obstructive sleep apnea in patients with lung cancer and its effect on those patients' performance status. This is a prevalence study that was conducted at Chest Diseases Department, Alexandria Main University Hospitals. We enrolled 153 patients with lung cancer. All patients underwent cardiorespiratory monitoring using a home sleep-testing device. Performance status was assessed using Karnofsky performance status scale. The study included 120 (78.4%) males and 33 (21.6%) females newly diagnosed with lung cancer. The mean age was 59.98 ± 11.11 years. Obstructive sleep apnea (apnea-hypopnea index ≥ 5) was present in 134 (87.6%) patients. Eighty-five (63.4%) patients had mild obstructive sleep apnea, 39 (29.1%) patients had moderate obstructive sleep apnea, and 10 (7.46%) patients had severe obstructive sleep apnea. Prolonged nocturnal oxygen desaturation as demonstrated by time of oxygen saturation spent below 90% (T90%) during total sleep time > 30% was present in 25 (16.3%) patients. There was a significant difference in the median value of Karnofsky performance status scale between patients with lung cancer and associated obstructive sleep apnea and those without obstructive sleep apnea. In conclusion, obstructive sleep apnea is highly prevalent among patients with lung cancer. Performance status is worse among patients with lung cancer in the presence of obstructive sleep apnea. Screening patients with lung cancer for obstructive sleep apnea is important regardless of the presence of classical symptoms of obstructive sleep apnea.

Abstract
Despite undeniable advances in modern medicine, lung cancer still has high morbidity and mortality rates. Lung cancer is preventable and treatable, and it is important to identify new risk factors for lung cancer, especially those that can be treated or reversed. Obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) is a very common sleep-breathing disorder that is grossly underestimated in clinical practice. It can cause, exacerbate, and worsen adverse outcomes, including death and various diseases, but its relationship with lung cancer is unclear. A possible causal relationship between OSA and the onset and progression of lung cancer has been established biologically. The pathophysiological processes associated with OSA, such as sleep fragmentation, intermittent hypoxia, and increased sympathetic nervous excitation, may affect normal neuroendocrine regulation, impair immune function (especially innate and cellular immunity), and ultimately contribute to the occurrence of lung cancer, accelerate progression, and induce treatment resistance. OSA may be a contributor to but a preventable cause of the progression of lung cancer. However, whether this effect exists independently of other risk factors is unclear. Therefore, by reviewing the literature on the epidemiology, pathogenesis, and treatment of lung cancer and OSA, we hope to understand the relationships between the two and promote the interdisciplinary exchange of ideas between basic medicine, clinical medicine, respiratory medicine, sleep medicine, and oncology.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) is associated with increased risk of lung cancer mortality. Nevertheless, little is known about the underlying molecular mechanisms. This research aimed to investigate differentially expressed genes (DEGs) and explore their function in Lewis lung carcinoma (LLC)-bearing mice exposed to chronic intermittent hypoxia (CIH) by transcriptome sequencing. METHODS Lung cancer tissues in LLC-bearing mice exposed to CIH or normoxia were subjected for transcriptome sequencing to examine DEGs. Gene Ontology and Kyoto Encyclopedia of Genes and Genomes pathway analyses were employed to explore the function of DEGs. To evaluate the prognostic value of DEGs, the Kaplan-Meier survival analysis in combination with Cox proportional hazard model were applied based on The Cancer Genome Atlas. RESULTS A total of 388 genes with 207 up-regulated and 181 down-regulated genes were differentially expressed between the CIH and normoxia control groups. Bioinformatics analysis revealed that the DEGs were related to various signaling pathways such as chemokine signaling pathway, IL-17 signaling pathway, TGF-β signaling pathway, transcriptional misregulation in cancer, natural killer cell mediated cytotoxicity, PPAR signaling pathway. In addition, the DEGs including APOL1, ETFB, KLK8, PPP1R3G, PRL, SPTA1, PLA2G3, PCP4L1, NINJ2, MIR186, and KLRG1 were proven to be significantly correlated with poorer overall survival in lung adenocarcinoma. CONCLUSIONS CIH caused a significant change of gene expression profiling in LLC-bearing mice. The DEGs were found to be involved in various physiological and pathological processes and correlated with poorer prognosis in lung cancer.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Nocturnal hypoxemia has been associated with cardiovascular and non-cardiovascular morbidity and mortality. This study aimed to investigate the prognostic value of nocturnal hypoxemia among patients with hemodynamically stable acute symptomatic pulmonary embolism (PE). METHODS We performed an ad hoc secondary analysis of clinical data from a prospective cohort study. Nocturnal hypoxemia was measured by the percent sleep registry with oxygen saturation <90% [TSat90]). Outcomes assessed over the 30-days after the diagnosis of PE included PE-related death, other cardiovascular deaths, clinical deterioration requiring an escalation of treatment, recurrent venous thromboembolism (VTE), acute myocardial infarction [AMI], or stroke. RESULTS Of the 221 hemodynamically stable patients with acute PE from which the TSat90 could be calculated and did not receive supplemental oxygen, the primary outcome occurred in 11 (5.0%; 95% confidence interval [CI], 2.5% to 8.7%) within 30-days after the diagnosis of PE. When categorized by quartiles, TSat90 was not significantly associated with the occurrence of the primary outcome in unadjusted Cox regression analysis (hazard ratio, 0.96; 95% CI, 0.57 to 1.63; P = 0.88), or after adjustment for body mass index (adjusted hazard ratio, 0.97; 95% CI, 0.57 to 1.65; P = 0.92). When examined as a completely continuous variable (between 0 and 100), TSat90 was not associated with a significant increase in the adjusted hazard of 30-day primary outcome rates (hazard ratio, 0.97; 95% CI, 0.86 to 1.10; P = 0.66). CONCLUSIONS In this study, nocturnal hypoxemia did not identify stable patients with acute symptomatic PE at increased risk for adverse cardiovascular events.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION Hypoglossal nerve stimulation (HNS) has recently been introduced as an alternative treatment for patients with OSA. A large number of studies have demonstrated substantial changes in OSA with this therapy by reducing respiratory events and improving symptoms such as daytime sleepiness and quality of life. The objective of this review was to conduct a systematic review and meta-analysis to evaluate patient-reported outcomes and experience with HNS therapy. METHODS A systematic literature search of MEDLINE, Cochrane, and Web of Science was performed to identify randomized controlled and observational studies reporting subjective outcomes with different HNS systems in patients with OSA. Abstracts of 406 articles were screened and a subset of 55 articles were reviewed for eligibility. Risk of bias was assessed using the ROBINS-I tool. Meta-analysis using RevMan was performed when > 2 studies were identified that reported data on a specific outcome. RESULTS Thirty-four publications reporting data on 3785 patients with a mean follow-up of 11.8 ± 12.2 months were identified and included in the meta-analysis. The analysis revealed a pooled effect of 4.59 points improvement in daytime sleepiness as measured by the ESS questionnaire (Z = 42.82, p < .001), 2.84 points improvement in daytime functioning as measured by the FOSQ score (Z = 28.38, p < .001), and 1.77 points improvement in sleep quality as measured by the PSQI questionnaire (Z = 2.53, p = .010). Patient-reported experience was consistently positive and revealed additional relevant aspects from this perspective. CONCLUSION HNS therapy significantly improves quality of life in patients with OSA and reliably produces clinically meaningful effects on daytime sleepiness, daytime functioning, and sleep quality. Treatment regularly meets or exceeds the minimum clinically important differences defined for the respective instruments. Additional research is needed to further investigate effects on quality of life beyond improvements in daytime sleepiness and daytime functioning.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) is one of the leading respiratory disorders, increasing the risk of cardiometabolic diseases. In the study, we investigated the association between OSA and the risk of cardiometabolic diseases and all-cause and cardiovascular mortality in adults. METHODS Participants were enrolled in the National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey. The baseline covariates were compared between participants with and without OSA status. Multivariable logistic regression was performed to explore the association between OSA and cardiometabolic diseases, while Cox proportional regression was performed for all-cause and cardiovascular mortality. RESULTS OSA status was positively associated with higher risks of cardiometabolic diseases, including hypertension (odds ratio [OR] 1.28, 95% confidence interval [CI] 1.14-1.45; p < 0.001), diabetes (OR 1.46, 95% CI 1.22-1.76; p < 0.001), and cardiovascular diseases (OR 1.29, 95% CI 1.08-1.54; p = 0.006) after adjusting for numerous covariates. However, no associations of OSA with all-cause or cardiovascular mortality were observed. CONCLUSION OSA was associated with a higher risk of hypertension, diabetes, and cardiovascular diseases, but had no significant association with all-cause or cardiovascular mortality in adults.

Abstract
Introduction Obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) is known to increase the risk of various cancers. By analyzing the Korea National Health Insurance Service (KNHIS) registry, the impact of OSA on the lung cancer incidence was analyzed in a retrospective cohort group. Methods A retrospective cohort of adult patients newly registered with OSA in the KNHIS data from 2007 to 2017 was included and observed until December 2019 (12 years). The main outcome measure was newly diagnosed lung cancer. The control group was set with age and sex that matched those in the OSA group. Results The hazard ratio (HR) of OSA for lung cancer incidence showed a significantly reduced HR of 0.87 (95% CI, 0.82-0.93). The observed significance of this finding was limited to male OSA patients [HR, 0.84 (95% CI, 0.78-0.90)], while no significant association was found in female OSA patients [HR, 1.05 (95% CI, 0.91-1.21)], irrespective of their age. Discussion OSA patients have a lower risk of developing lung cancer, but this risk reduction is gender-specific, as female OSA patients do not show a reduction in hazard ratio.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Evaluation and interpretation of the literature on obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) allows for consolidation and determination of the key factors important for clinical management of the adult OSA patient. Toward this goal, an international collaborative of multidisciplinary experts in sleep apnea evaluation and treatment have produced the International Consensus statement on Obstructive Sleep Apnea (ICS:OSA). METHODS Using previously defined methodology, focal topics in OSA were assigned as literature review (LR), evidence-based review (EBR), or evidence-based review with recommendations (EBR-R) formats. Each topic incorporated the available and relevant evidence which was summarized and graded on study quality. Each topic and section underwent iterative review and the ICS:OSA was created and reviewed by all authors for consensus. RESULTS The ICS:OSA addresses OSA syndrome definitions, pathophysiology, epidemiology, risk factors for disease, screening methods, diagnostic testing types, multiple treatment modalities, and effects of OSA treatment on multiple OSA-associated comorbidities. Specific focus on outcomes with positive airway pressure (PAP) and surgical treatments were evaluated. CONCLUSION This review of the literature consolidates the available knowledge and identifies the limitations of the current evidence on OSA. This effort aims to create a resource for OSA evidence-based practice and identify future research needs. Knowledge gaps and research opportunities include improving the metrics of OSA disease, determining the optimal OSA screening paradigms, developing strategies for PAP adherence and longitudinal care, enhancing selection of PAP alternatives and surgery, understanding health risk outcomes, and translating evidence into individualized approaches to therapy.

Abstract
PURPOSE The association between obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) and cancer risks gaining more and more attention. Data on the association between OSA and lung cancer risk are limited. This study is to investigate whether a link exists between low-dose computed tomography (LDCT) scanning of the chest findings, carcinoembryonic antigen (CEA) and OSA in patients suspected of OSA. METHODS The cross-sectional study included patients aged 18 years or older who underwent continuous nocturnal polysomnography at our sleep center between February 2019 and November 2020. All subjects underwent chest LDCT and CEA. Patients with an apnea-hypopnea index (AHI) of ≥ 15/h were classified as clinically significant OSA group, whereas patients with an AHI < 15/h were classified as control group. RESULTS A total of 277 patients were enrolled in the study. 176 patients were categorized into the OSA group, while 101 patients were categorized into the control group. There is no relationship between any OSA-related parameter and presence of lung nodule or presence of ≥ 6 mm lung nodule in the binary logistic regression analysis. OSA group demonstrated a significant higher value of CEA than control group. Stepwise multiple linear regression analysis showed that lowest O2 saturation (β = - 0.256, p < 0.001), smoking status (β = 0.156, p = 0.007) and age (β = 0.153, p = 0.008) were independent predictors of elevated CEA. CONCLUSIONS OSA was independently related to the elevated of serum CEA level, but not with presence of pulmonary nodule or ≥ 6 mm pulmonary nodule in LDCT. Further well-designed longitudinal studies with pathology available are needed to identify the association between OSA and risk of lung cancer.

Abstract
Background: Fatigue is the most common symptom among cancer survivors. Cancer-related fatigue (CRF) may occur at any point in the cancer care continuum. Multiple factors contribute to CRF development and severity, including cancer type, treatments, presence of other symptoms, comorbidities, and medication side effects. Clinically, increasing physical activity, enhancing sleep quality, and recognizing sleep disorders are integral to managing CRF. Unfortunately, CRF is infrequently recognized, evaluated, or treated in lung cancer survivors despite more frequent and severe symptoms than in other cancers. Therefore, increased awareness and understanding of CRF are needed to improve health-related quality of life in lung cancer survivors. Objectives: 1) To identify and prioritize knowledge and research gaps and 2) to develop and prioritize research questions to evaluate mechanistic, diagnostic, and therapeutic approaches to CRF among lung cancer survivors. Methods: We convened a multidisciplinary panel to review the available literature on CRF, focusing on the impacts of physical activity, rehabilitation, and sleep disturbances in lung cancer. We used a three-round modified Delphi process to prioritize research questions. Results: This statement identifies knowledge gaps in the 1) detection and diagnostic evaluation of CRF in lung cancer survivors; 2) timing, goals, and implementation of physical activity and rehabilitation; and 3) evaluation and treatment of sleep disturbances and disorders to reduce CRF. Finally, we present the panel's initial 32 research questions and seven final prioritized questions. Conclusions: This statement offers a prioritized research agenda to 1) advance clinical and research efforts and 2) increase awareness of CRF in lung cancer survivors.

Abstract
Sleep-disordered breathing (SDB) is highly prevalent in patients with cancer and affects their prognosis. However, data on SDB in lung cancer patients are lacking, and few studies have conducted level I polysomnography (PSG) in this patient population. This study aimed to measure SDB in newly diagnosed lung cancer patients at the sleep clinic of a tertiary respiratory institute in New Delhi, India, for eight months. This study included 30 patients. Participants received a clinical examination, completed a sleep questionnaire, and then underwent overnight PSG. We scored sleep parameters according to the American Academy of Sleep Medicine guidelines. Both descriptive and inferential statistics were used to analyze the data. We used univariate analysis with chi-square testing, and p<0.05 was considered significant. SDB and obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) were found in 66.6% and 56.6% of patients, respectively. Mild, moderate, and severe OSA were seen in 26.6%, 16.6%, and 13.3% of patients, respectively. Nocturnal oxygen desaturation (NOD) or NOD90 (i.e., when >30% of sleep time was spent with oxygen saturation levels <90%) was seen in 13.3% of patients. Adenocarcinoma was the most common histological variant of cancer. Tumor-node-metastasis staging was significantly associated with the presence of OSA (p=0.045). Lung cancer patients should receive routine PSG to identify and manage patients with SDB, especially given that symptoms of SDB such as easy fatigability and non-refreshing sleep are overlooked as symptoms of lung cancer. Proper management of SDB or OSA would help improve patients' quality of life and improve their overall prognosis.

Abstract
BACKGROUND The association between colorectal cancer (CRC) and obstructive sleep apnoea (OSA) has been attracting increasing attention. several studies had confirmed that OSA increases the risk of CRC onset. However, the findings of studies on the morbidity of OSA in patients with CRC were unclear. Therefore, this study aimed to investigate the morbidity of OSA in patients with CRC as well as the association between the clinicopathological characteristics of OSA and CRC. METHODS A total of 414 patients with a pathological diagnosis of CRC from 1 January, 2020 to 30 December, 2020 were included in this study. Demographic characteristics, clinical information, and tumor characteristics of participants were collected; sleep was monitored using a wearable oximeter and via sleep quality questionnaire. The oxygen desaturation index (ODI) was used to classify OSA severity so that the diagnostic criteria for OSA were set based on the ODI as 0-5 (normal) and ≥5 (abnormal). After correcting for confounding factors, a logistic regression analysis was performed to calculate the odds ratio (OR) and 95% confidence interval (CI) for the factors affecting the tumor lymph node stage (N stage). RESULTS A total of 402 patients with CRC were included in this study, including 225 (55.97%) men and 177 (44.03%) women. The mean ODI value of participants was 3.40±8.17. The morbidity of OSA among the patients with CRC having ODI ≥5 was 16.17%. A comparison between the normal and abnormal ODI value groups revealed that the high proportion of abnormal ODI was related to higher N stage (P<0.05). Logistic regression analysis revealed a correlation of ODI values and age to the N stage. Specifically, CRC patients with an abnormal ODI had a higher risk of lymph node metastasis compared to those with normal ODI (OR =1.915, 95% CI: 1.025 to 3.579). Moreover, patients with CRC aged ≥65 years had a higher risk of lymph node metastasis compared to those aged <65 years (OR =2.190, 95% CI: 1.163 to 4.125). CONCLUSIONS CRC patients with abnormal ODI are susceptible to OSA. Additionally, abnormal ODI and age ≥65 years are relevant factors for the N2 stage.

Abstract
Background The association between obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) and the incidence and mortality of cancer remain unclear, especially in Asian populations. Thus, this study was conducted to explore the relationship between OSA and the incidence and mortality of cancer in hospitalized patients. Methods This retrospective cohort study evaluated inpatients from Guangdong Provincial People’s Hospital for suspected OSA between January 2005 and December 2015. Cancer incidence, all-cause mortality, and cancer mortality and were determined using data from the hospital information system and Centers for Disease Control. Between-group comparisons were carried out by performing a chi-square test and analysis of variance. Kaplan–Meier analysis and the Cox proportional risk model were applied to investigate the association between OSA and cancer incidence and mortality. Results Of the 4,623 hospitalized patients included, 3,786 (81.9%) patients were diagnosed with OSA. After a median follow-up of 9.1 years (interquartile range, 9.79–11.44), the incidence of cancer was 6.6% (251/3,786), with lung cancer having the highest incidence at 1.6% (60/3,786). The mortality rate of OSA patients was higher than that of non-OSA patients (16.83% vs.12.78%, p=0.008), but the relationship between apnea-hypopnea index (AHI), oxygen saturation less than 90% (TSat90), and cancer mortality was not statistically significant (p>0.05).The mortality rate for all types of cancer was 2.8% (105/3,786), with lung cancer having the highest mortality rate at 0.8% (32/3,786). The cumulative incidence of cancer in the severe OSA group was 8.2%, which was higher than that in the normal, mild, and moderate OSA groups (P=0.010). Further, the Cox proportional risk regression model showed a progressive enhancement in the risk of cancer incidence as the AHI increased (adjusted hazard ratio [HR]: 1.009 [95% confidence interval (CI): 1.003–1.016], P=0.005). Based on subgroup analysis, the risk of cancer increased as the AHI increased in patients aged <65 years (adjusted HR: 1.019 [95% CI: 1.007–1.031], P=0.002). In addition, the cancer incidence was significantly higher in the severe OSA group than in the normal, mild, and moderate OSA groups (adjusted HR: 2.825 [95% CI: 1.358–5.878], P=0.019). Conclusion The incidence of cancer is higher in patients with OSA than in non-OSA patients and is significantly positively associated with the severity of OSA. Particularly, for OSA patients aged <65 years, lung cancer is the main cause of death in those with new-onset cancer. Mortality was higher in OSA patients than in non-OSA patients.

To analyze the prognostic factors and survival rate of lung cancer patients with obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) by nomogram. The nomogram was established by a development cohort (n = 90), and the validation cohort included 38 patients. Factors in the nomogram were identified by Cox hazard analysis. We tested the accuracy of the nomograms by discrimination and calibration, and plotted decision curves to assess the benefits of nomogram-assisted decisions. There were significant difference in sex, apnea hypopnea index (AHI), Tumor Node Metastasis (TNM), coronary heart disease, lowest arterial oxygen saturation [LSpO2 (%)], oxygen below 90% of the time [T90% (min)], the percentage of the total recorded time spend below 90% oxygen saturation (TS90%) and oxygen desaturation index (ODI4) between lung cancer subgroup and lung cancer with OSA subgroup (P < 0.05). Lung cancer patients with OSA age, AHI, TNM, cancer types, BMI and ODI4 were independent prognostic factor. Based on these six factors, a nomogram model was established. The c-index of internal verification was 0.802 (95% CI 0.767–0.885). The ROC curve analysis for the nomogram show 1-year survival (AUC = 0.827), 3-year survival (AUC = 0.867), 5-year survival (AUC = 0.801) in the development cohort were good accuracy. The calibration curve shows that this prediction model is in good agreement. Decision curve analysis (DCA) suggests that the net benefit of decision-making with this nomogram is higher, especially in the probability interval of <20% threshold. The nomogram can predict the prognosis of patients and guide individualized treatment.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Obstructive sleep apnea syndrome (OSAS) is a common chronic sleep disorder. OSAS is closely related to cardiovascular disease, metabolic disorders, cancer risk, and sudden death. This association has special significance in young people. Although it is known that OSAS has a great impact on physical health, it is estimated that 70-80% of patients with moderate-to-severe OSAS remain undiagnosed. Therefore, a new method for early diagnosis of the disease, the therapeutic effect of OSAS and prevention of complications to important. METHODS A total of 110 patients with moderate-to-severe OSAS diagnosed in the Sleep Disorders Diagnosis and Treatment Center of Peking University Shenzhen Hospital were selected. After excluding other diseases, 59 patients were finally selected as the OSAS group. In addition, 60 healthy people were selected as the control group. Serum RNA was then extracted. Eight RNA samples were randomly selected from the two groups for high-throughput miRNA sequencing. The 10 miRNAs with the greatest differences were selected as preselected markers from the results. Then, qRT-PCR was performed on the remaining RNA samples of the two groups to extract and verify the 10 miRNAs, and statistical analysis was performed between groups. RESULTS A diagnostic panel was constructed by a stepwise logistic regression model combined with the expression data of miRNAs in the validation phase. A four-miRNA panel was identified to better predict OSAS, and the model was calculated using the following formula: Logit (P)= 0.77-1.65 × miR-486-5p - 4.56 × miR-148a-3p + 1.79 × miR-744-5p + 1.13 × let-7d-3p. The AUC for the four-miRNA panel was 0.955 (95% CI: 0.899 to 0.985; sensitivity = 91.38%, specificity = 91.38%). Gene Ontology (GO) annotation and Kyoto encyclopedia of genes and genomes (KEGG) pathway analysis was included in bioinformatic analysis. CONCLUSION A 4-miRNAs panel as a diagnostic biomarker for OSAS screening is feasible.

Abstract
PURPOSE The aim was to explore the correlation between Obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) and Lung adenocarcinoma malignant prognosis and evaluate the miR-142-3p was used as an OSA severity indicator to predict the prognosis of Lung adenocarcinoma patients. METHODS This study comprised of 21 diagnosed lung adenocarcinoma patients with or without OSA. The sleep-related variables and tumor pathology were recorded. Hypoxia-inducible factor-1α (HIF1α) and ki67 expression were analyzed by immunohistochemistry in tumor samples. Quantitative real-time polymerase chain reaction (qRT-PCR) was performed to assess the level of miR-142-3p. RESULTS Lung adenocarcinoma with OSA showed higher apnea-hypopnea index (AHI), oxygen desaturation index (ODI), and the lower lowest pulse oxygen saturation (LSPO2) compared to Lung adenocarcinoma without OSA (P<0.05), and patients with severer OSA have an advanced TNM stage (P=0.004) and metastasis rate (p=0.032). In addition, OSA may down-regulate the miR-142-3p expression in patients with Lung adenocarcinoma, and the patients with low miR-142-3p expression exhibited severe OSA. MiR-142-3p levels significantly decreased in the advanced TNM stage (p=0.015), and the expression of miR-142-3p was negatively associated with AHI (r= -0.505, p=0.020), ODI (r= -0.513, p=0.017). CONCLUSION OSA severity may increase Lung adenocarcinoma malignant prognosis. OSA may down-regulate the expression of miR-42-3p. The expression of miR-142-3p was inversely correlated with AHI and ODI as a surrogate of OSA severity. Additionally, the low miR-142-3p expression level was significantly associated with advanced TNM stage in Lung adenocarcinoma patients.

Abstract
RATIONALE In 2020, lung cancer was the leading cause of cancer deaths, and was the most common cancer in men. Though obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) has been postulated to be carcinogenic, epidemiological studies are inconclusive. OBJECTIVES We conducted this systematic review and meta-analysis to investigate the associations between OSA and the incidence and mortality of lung cancer. METHODS Four electronic databases (PubMed, Embase, Cochrane Library, and Scopus) were searched from inception till 6 June 2021 for randomized controlled trials and observational studies examining the association between sleep apnea and incident lung cancer. Two reviewers selected studies, extracted data, graded the risk of bias using the Newcastle-Ottawa scale and the quality of evidence using GRADE. Random-effects models were used to meta-analyze the maximally covariate-adjusted associations. RESULTS Seven studies were included in our systematic review; among which four were suitable for meta-analysis, comprising a combined cohort of 4,885,518 patients. Risk of bias was low to moderate. OSA was associated with a higher incidence of lung cancer (HR 1.25, 95%CI 1.02 to 1.53), with substantial heterogeneity (I²=97%). Heterogeneity was eliminated, with a stable pooled effect size, when including the three studies with at least 5 years of median follow-up (HR 1.32, 95%CI 1.27 to 1.37, I²=0%). CONCLUSIONS In this meta-analysis of 4,885,518 patients from four observational studies, patients with OSA had approximately 30% higher risk of lung cancer, compared to those without OSA. We suggest more clinical studies with longer follow-up as well as biological models of lung cancer be performed to further elucidate this relationship.

Sleep Disruption, Fatigue, and Depression as Predictors of 6-Year Clinical Outcomes Following Allogeneic Hematopoietic Cell Transplantation. J Natl Cancer Inst 2021; 113:1405-1414. [PMID: 33693799 PMCID: PMC8633423 DOI: 10.1093/jnci/djab032] [Citation(s) in RCA: 12] [Impact Index Per Article: 4.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [MESH Headings] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 09/11/2020] [Revised: 01/04/2021] [Accepted: 03/04/2021] [Indexed: 08/25/2023] Open
Abstract
BACKGROUND Allogeneic hematopoietic cell transplantation (HCT) is a widely used treatment for hematologic cancers, with survival rates ranging from 25% to 78%. Known risk factors for chronic graft-versus-host disease (cGVHD), a serious and common long-term complication, disease relapse, and mortality following HCT have been identified, but much of the variability in HCT outcomes is unexplained. Biobehavioral symptoms including depression, sleep disruption, and fatigue are some of the most prevalent and distressing for patients; yet research on biobehavioral risk factors for HCT outcomes is limited. This study evaluated patient-reported depression, sleep disruption, and fatigue as risk factors for cGVHD, disease relapse, and mortality. METHODS Adults receiving allogeneic HCT for a hematologic malignancy (N = 241) completed self-report measures of depression symptoms, sleep quality, and fatigue (severity, interference) pre-HCT and 100 days post-HCT. Clinical outcomes were monitored for up to 6 years. RESULTS Cox proportional hazard models (2-tailed) adjusting for patient demographic and medical characteristics revealed that high pre-HCT sleep disruption (Pittsburgh Sleep Quality Index >9; hazard ratio [HR] = 2.74, 95% confidence interval [CI] = 1.27 to 5.92) and greater post-HCT fatigue interference (HR = 1.32, 95% CI = 1.05 to 1.66) uniquely predicted increased risk of mortality. Moderate pre-HCT sleep disruption (Pittsburgh Sleep Quality Index 6-9) predicted increased risk of relapse (HR = 1.99, 95% CI = 1.02 to 3.87). Biobehavioral symptoms did not predict cGVHD incidence. CONCLUSIONS Biobehavioral symptoms, particularly sleep disruption and fatigue interference, predicted an increased risk for 6-year relapse and mortality after HCT. Because these symptoms are amenable to treatment, they offer specific targets for intervention to improve HCT outcomes.

Abstract
PURPOSE Prior reports have examined the relationship between obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) and the mortality rate of lung cancer. However, the findings remain controversial. The present meta-analysis was performed to assess the relationship between OSA and increased risk of mortality in patients with lung cancer. METHODS PubMed, Web of Science, and Embase were systematically searched for the correlative studies. Data were analyzed and pooled to evaluate odds ratios (ORs) of lung cancer mortality related to OSA. RESULTS From 249 identified studies, 3 met inclusion criteria and were analyzed, including 67 patients with lung cancer and comorbid OSA and 45 patients with lung cancer and no OSA. The meta-analysis indicated that OSA was not significantly correlated with mortality rate in lung cancer (OR = 2.005, 95% CI = 0.703 to 5.715, z = 1.30, p = 0.193). There was no significant publication bias according to Begg's tests (p = 0.296) and Egger's tests (p = 0.097). CONCLUSION This meta-analysis suggests that OSA is not significantly correlated with the mortality rate in lung cancer.

Abstract
BACKGROUND An adverse role for obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) in cancer aggressiveness and mortality has recently emerged from clinical and animal studies, and the reasons have not been fully determined. Cancer stem cells (CSCs) are regarded as the main cause of carcinoma metastasis. So far, the relationship between OSA and lung CSCs has not been explored. METHOD In the present study, we established an orthotopic mouse model of primary lung cancer and utilized chronic intermittent hypoxia (CIH) exposure to mimic OSA status. RESULTS We observed that CIH endows lung cancer with greater metastatic potential, evidenced by increased tumor growth, tumor seeding, and upregulated CSC-related gene expression in the lungs. Notably, the transcription factor BTB and CNC homology 1 (Bach1), a key factor in responding to conditions of oxidative stress, is increased in lung cancer after CIH exposure in vitro and in vivo. Meanwhile, exposing lung cancer cells to CIH promoted cell proliferation, clonal diversity, induced stem-like cell marker expression, and gave rise to CSCs at a relatively higher frequency. Furthermore, the increase of mitochondrial ROS (mtROS) and CSC-marker expression induced by CIH exposure was abolished in Bach1 shRNA-treated lung cancer cells. CONCLUSIONS Our results indicated that CIH promoted lung CSC-like properties by activating mtROS, which was partially mediated by Bach1.

Abstract
PURPOSE OF REVIEW Obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) has been recognized as a risk factor for cancer mainly through hypoxia, based on studies that did not distinguish among cancer types. The purpose of this review is to discuss the most recent data on epidemiology and pathophysiology of the OSA-cancer association. RECENT FINDINGS According to epidemiological studies, OSA may have different influences on each type of cancer, either increasing or decreasing its incidence and aggressiveness. Time spent with oxygen saturation below 90% appears the polysomnographic variable most strongly associated with unfavorable effects on cancer. Experimental studies support the role of hypoxia as an important risk factor for cancer growth and aggressiveness, especially when it shows an intermittent pattern. These effects are largely mediated by the hypoxia-inducible factor, which controls the synthesis of molecules with effects on inflammation, immune surveillance and cell proliferation. Sleep fragmentation participates in increasing cancer risk. Modulating effects of age remain controversial. SUMMARY Effects of OSA on cancer may largely vary among neoplastic diseases, both in their magnitude and direction. The worse risk associated with intermittent rather than persistent hypoxia, and the effects of OSA therapy on cancer natural history are still poorly known, and deserve new careful studies.

Abstract
Background and objectives: Obstructive sleep apnoea (OSA) is clinically defined by signs of daytime sleepiness and objective measures of disordered breathing during sleep. The literature is still controversial on the incidence and aetiology of OSA secondary to head and neck cancer treatment. The aim of this systematic review is to evaluate and discuss the prevalence of OSA in patients treated with surgery and/or chemo/radiotherapy for head and neck cancer. Materials and methods: Following the Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Reviews and Meta-Analyses (PRISMA) guidelines, a systematic search was performed on May 2020 using the MEDLINE database, Scopus, and Google Scholar. The searches were conducted using combinations of the following terms: head and neck cancer, OSA, radiotherapy, chemotherapy, partial laryngectomy, laryngeal cancer, neoplasm, tumour, carcinoma, and oropharyngeal cancer. Results: Our results suggest that head and neck cancer patients have a higher incidence of OSA (59.78%) compared to the general population; differences may occur based on the type of treatment. Conclusions: Clinicians should recognise the higher prevalence of OSA in patients treated for head and neck cancer and should consider a comprehensive sleep history as part of the evaluation and management of these patients. Further research is needed to evaluate the exact prevalence, aetiology, and correct management of OSA after treatment for head and neck cancer.
