Abstract
A dysregulated circadian system is independently associated with both Obstructive Sleep Apnea (OSA) and cardiovascular disease (CVD). OSA and CVD coexistence is often seen in patients with prolonged untreated OSA. However, the role of circadian dysregulation in their relationship is unclear. Half of the human genes, associated biological pathways, and physiological functions exhibit circadian rhythms, including blood pressure and heart rate regulation. Mechanisms related to circadian dysregulation and heart function are potentially involved in the coexistence of OSA and CVD. In this article, we provide a comprehensive overview of circadian dysregulation in OSA and associated CVD. We also discuss feasible animal models and new avenues for future research to understand their relationship. Oxygen-sensing pathways, inflammation, dysregulation of cardiovascular processes, oxidative stress, metabolic regulation, hormone signaling, and epigenetics are potential clock-regulated mechanisms connecting OSA and CVD.

Abstract
BACKGROUND The association between obstructive sleep apnea syndrome (OSAS) and mortality has not been extensively researched among individuals with varying diabetic status. This study aimed to compare the relationship of OSAS with all-cause and cause-specific mortality in US individuals with or without diabetes based on data from the National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey (NHANES). METHODS The study included participants from the NHANES 2005-2008 and 2015-2018 cycles with follow-up information. OSAS data (OSAS.MAP10) was estimated from the questionnaire. Hazard ratios (HRs) and the 95% confidence interval (CI) of OSAS for mortality were calculated by Cox regression analysis in populations with different diabetes status. The relationships between OSAS and mortality risk were examined using survival curves and restricted cubic spline curves. RESULTS A total of 13 761 participants with 7.68 ± 0.042 follow-up years were included. In the nondiabetic group, OSAS.MAP10 was positively associated with all-cause, cardiovascular, and cancer mortality. In individuals with prediabetes, OSAS.MAP10 was positively related to all-cause mortality (HR 1.11 [95% CI: 1.03-1.20]) and cardiovascular mortality (HR 1.17 [95% CI: 1.03-1.33]). The relationship between OSAS.MAP10 and the risk of all-cause mortality and cancer mortality exhibited L-shaped curves in diabetes patients (both with nonlinear p values <.01). Further threshold effect analysis revealed that OSAS was positively related to death risk when OSAS.MAP10 exceeded the threshold scores. CONCLUSION The relationship between OSAS and mortality differed among participants with or without diabetes. Individualized clinical treatment plans should be developed in clinical practice to reduce the risk of death for patients with different metabolic conditions.

Abstract
Numerous evidence reports direct correlation between cognitive impairment, Alzheimer's disease and sleep disorders, in particular obstructive sleep apnea. Both obstructive sleep apnea and Alzheimer's disease are highly prevalent conditions whose incidence increases with age. Several studies demonstrate how sleep-disordered breathing may lead to poor cognition, even though the underlying mechanisms of this association remain partially unclear. According to the most recent studies, obstructive sleep apnea may be considered a modifiable risk factor for cognitive dysfunction. In the present review, the authors aim to integrate recent research examining obstructive sleep apnea and Alzheimer's disease biomarkers, also focusing on the mechanisms that support this correlation, including but not limited to the role of hypoxia and cardiovascular risk. Moreover, the potential favourable effect of obstructive sleep apnea therapy on cognitive function is discussed, to evaluate the benefits deriving from appropriate treatment of sleep-disordered breathing on cognition.

Abstract
Obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) has long been studied in patients with obesity and type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM), due to the fact that both disorders are commonly associated with an increased body mass index (BMI). However, a link between OSA and non-obese diabetic patients is still not very elaborated, nor heavily explored. In this review, we elucidate some proposed mechanisms for the link between OSA and diabetic patients both with and beyond obesity, shedding the light on the latter case. One such mechanism is oxidative stress, a phenomenon of reactive oxygen species (ROS) imbalance seen in both of the previously mentioned disorders. A plausible explanation for the OSA-induced ROS production is the repeating episodes of hypoxia and reperfusion and their effect on the mitochondrial electron transport chain. This paper explores the literature regarding ROS imbalance as the possible missing link between OSA and Diabetes Mellitus beyond obesity, while still mentioning other possible proposed mechanisms such as a dysregulated autonomic nervous system (ANS), as well as mechanical and craniofacial abnormalities. This paper also suggests a link between OSA and diabetic complications, while exploring the clinical progress made in treating the former disorder with anti-oxidant and hypo-glycemic drugs. If further investigated, these findings could help identify novel therapeutic interventions for the treatment of OSA and Diabetic patients.

Abstract
Regardless of the nature of its operationalization, frailty has significant negative consequences for the person concerned and the community. Even if a generally accepted definition of frailty is still missing, there is no doubt about the existence of this phenomenon. Pathophysiologically, a dysfunctional interaction between multiple complex systems is discussed. Therapeutic interventions show that frailty is a dynamic state that can be improved. The pathophysiological characteristics of frailty and sleep disturbances show numerous similarities. In addition, the risk of frailty is increased in individuals with sleep disturbances. As the majority of sleep disorders can usually be well treated, screening for sleep disorders should be integrated into a comprehensive concept of management of frailty.

Lipids Health Dis 2023; 22:159. [PMID: 37752495 PMCID: PMC10521560 DOI: 10.1186/s12944-023-01919-8] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 07/06/2023] [Accepted: 09/09/2023] [Indexed: 09/28/2023] Open
Abstract
BACKGROUND Currently, there is limited and controversial clinical research on the correlation between sleep-disordered breathing (SDB) and dyslipidemia. This discrepancy in findings may be because studies that primarily focused on hospital-based populations may not be applicable to community-based populations. Therefore, the primary objective of this research endeavor is to scrutinize the correlation between nocturnal hypoxemia and blood lipid concentrations among adult individuals residing in the community who exhibit symptoms of SDB. Additionally, this study aimed to identify the nocturnal hypoxia parameters having the strongest correlation with this relationship. METHODS This cross-sectional study collected data from The Guangdong Sleep Health Study, which included 3829 participants. Type IV sleep monitoring was employed to measure hypoxemia parameters, and lipoproteins were evaluated using fasting blood samples. To understand the association between dyslipidemia and hypoxemia parameters, a multivariable logistic regression model was used. Subgroup analyses were conducted to stratify data according to age, sex, waist circumference, and chronic diseases. RESULTS The age of the individuals involved in the study spanned from 20 to 90 years. The average age of the participants was 56.15 ± 13.11 years. Of the total sample size, 55.7% were male. In the fully adjusted model, the meanSpO2 was negatively associated with hyperlipidemia (0.9303 [95% confidence interval 0.8719, 0.9925]). Upon conducting a nonlinearity test, the relationship between the meanSpO2 and hyperlipidemia was nonlinear. The inflection points were determined to be 95. When meanSpO2 ≥ 95%, a difference of 1 in the meanSpO2 corresponded to a 0.07 difference in the risk of hyperlipidemia. CONCLUSIONS This study revealed that higher meanSpO2 is significantly and negatively associated with hyperlipidemia in adult community residents with SDB, particularly when the meanSpO2 exceeds 95. This finding emphasizes the importance of close monitoring for dyslipidemia, which is considered an early indicator of atherosclerosis in patients with SDB who experience nocturnal hypoxia.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES To compare positive airway pressure (PAP) adherence between patients with or without excessive daytime sleepiness (EDS) in mild, moderate and severe obstructive sleep apnea (OSA). METHODS Patients ≥18 years diagnosed with OSA in 2018 and 2019, without previous history of PAP usage and with adherence registration in the first medical consultation after treatment initiation, were included. EDS was defined as a score of ≥10 on the Epworth Scale. Patients were divided into two groups according to the adherence to PAP: "Adherent" if using the device for ≥4 h for ≥70% of the nights and "Nonadherent" otherwise. Simple and multiple logistic regression models for adherence were determined. RESULTS 321 patients were included, most male (64.2%), with mean age 56.56 years. Most patients had severe OSA (n = 159; 49.5%), and median AHI was 29.3/h [16.8; 47.5]. Being older or having a severe OSA resulted in an increased adherence (OR = 1.020, CI95% = [1.002; 1.039] and OR = 2.299, CI95% = [1.273; 4.191], respectively). In patients without EDS a statistically significant difference was found in adherence between those with severe OSA and both mild and moderate OSA categories (OR = 0.285, p = 0.023 and OR = 0.387, p = 0.026, respectively), with patients with severe OSA being adherent. There was no statistical difference in adherence between patients with or without EDS (OR 1.083; p = 0.876), nor in the different degrees of severity in those with EDS. CONCLUSION In our study there were no differences in PAP therapy adherence between patients with or without excessive daytime sleepiness. Older age and higher OSA severity resulted in higher adherence rates.

Abstract
Obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) is characterized by recurrent complete or partial obstruction of the upper airway. The prevalence is 1-4% in children aged between 2 and 8 years and rising due to the increase in obesity rates in children. Although persistent OSA following adenotonsillectomy is usually associated with obesity and underlying complex disorders, it can also affect otherwise healthy children. Medical treatment strategies are frequently required when adenotonsillectomy is not indicated in children with OSA or if OSA is persistent following adenotonsillectomy. Positive airway pressure treatment is a very effective modality for persistent OSA in childhood; however, adherence rates are low. The aim of this review article is to summarize medical treatment options for OSA in children.

Abstract
The global prevalence of obesity is increasing rapidly with an exponential rise in incidence of type 2 diabetes mellitus in recent years. 'Diabesity', the term coined to show the strong interlink between obesity and diabetes, is the direct cons-equence of the obesity pandemic, and poses significant challenges in the management of the disease. Without addressing the clinical and mechanistic complications of obesity such as metabolic-associated fatty liver disease and obstructive sleep apnoea, a rational management algorithm for diabesity cannot be developed. Several classes of anti-diabetic medications including insulins, sulphonylureas, thiazolidinediones and meglitinides are associated with the risk of weight gain and may potentially worsen diabesity. Therefore, appropriate selection of antidiabetic drug regimen is crucial in the medical management of diabesity. The role of non-pharmacological measures such as dietary adjustments, exercise interventions and bariatric procedures should also be emphasised. Unfortunately, the importance of appropriate and optimal management of diabesity is often overlooked by medical professionals when achieving adequate glycemic control which results in inappropriate management of the disease and its complications. This review provides a narrative clinical update on the evidence behind the management of diabesity.

A Narrative Review of Sex and Gender Differences in Sleep Disordered Breathing: Gaps and Opportunities. LIFE (BASEL, SWITZERLAND) 2022; 12:life12122003.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION Sleep disordered breathing (SDB) is a common condition, associated with multiple comorbidities including cardiovascular and metabolic disease. It has been previously established that SDB is more prevalent in men than women, shifting the literature's focus away from the latter population. As such, underdiagnosis, and thus undertreatment, of SDB in women exists. METHODS To establish the differences in prevalence, clinical presentation, and pathophysiology of SDB between the two sexes, a narrative review of the current literature was performed. RESULTS Rates of SDB are higher among men, likely driven by differences in symptom presentation between men and women, with women presenting with more "atypical" symptoms, and lack of sensitivity in SDB screening tools to detect SDB in women. In addition to the cardiovascular risks of SDB, women with SDB may have worse quality of life, higher prevalence of insomnia, and respiratory issues. DISCUSSION More research is needed to better define the unique pathophysiology and clinical presentation of SDB in women. In addition, an increased awareness among health care providers and the lay public of the SDB-specific sex and gender differences will serve to minimize disparities in identification and treatment of SDB in women.

Abstract
Eye diseases are an important group of increasingly prevalent disorders that contribute very significantly to disability and represent a considerable health burden. Some data suggest that several of these diseases may be associated with sleep-disordered breathing, mainly obstructive sleep apnea (OSA), due to intermediate mechanisms, such as intermittent hypoxia or sleep fragmentation. The aims of this systematic review were to identify and critically evaluate the current evidence supporting the existence of a possible relationship between OSA and the more relevant eye diseases as well as to evaluate the potential pathogenic mechanisms. There is a body of largely low-level evidence for the association of OSA with glaucoma, nonarteritic ischemic optic neuropathy, central serous chorioretinopathy, and diabetic retinopathy. Meta-analysis of available case-control studies shows that OSA increases the risk of glaucoma (pooled odds ratio: 1.50; 95% confidence interval: 1.25 to 1.80; P < .001), nonarteritic ischemic optic neuropathy (3.62; 1.94 to 6.76; P < .001), and diabetic retinopathy (1.57; 1.09 to 2.27; P = .02). Moreover, several pathogenic pathways have been identified, mainly related to hypoxic damage, mechanical stress, systemic inflammation, oxidative stress, sympathetic tone, and endothelial dysfunction. In contrast, information about the effect of apnea-hypopnea suppression on the development and progression of eye damage is either nonexistent or of a very low level of evidence. In conclusion, OSA has emerged as an additional potential risk factor for many eye diseases, although their link is weak and contradictory, so further examination is required.

Abstract
Pediatric obstructive sleep apnea syndrome (OSAS) is a disorder of breathing during sleep, characterized by intermittent or prolonged upper airway obstruction that can disrupt normal ventilation and/or sleep patterns. It can affect an estimated 2–4% of children worldwide. Untreated OSAS can have far reaching consequences on a child’s health, including low mood and concentration as well as metabolic derangements and pulmonary vascular disease. Most children are treated with surgical intervention (e.g., first-line therapy, adenotonsillectomy); however, for those for whom surgery is not indicated or desired, or for those with postoperative residual OSAS, positive airway pressure (PAP) therapy is often employed. PAP therapy can be used to relieve upper airway obstruction as well as aid in ventilation. PAP therapy is effective in treatment of OSAS in children and adults, although with pediatric patients, additional considerations and limitations exist. Active management and care for various considerations important to pediatric patients with OSAS can allow PAP to be an effective and safe therapy in this population.

Abstract
Context Obstructive sleep apnea (OSA)-related hypoxemia stimulates release of acute-phase proteins and reactive oxygen species that exacerbate insulin resistance and lipolysis and cause an augmented prothrombotic and proinflammatory state which can leads to premature death. Aims This study aims to study the prevalence of OSA in diabetic patients. Setting and Design It was a cross-sectional study, done over a period of 1 year in a tertiary care hospital. Materials and Methods A total of 149 type 2 diabetic patients were enrolled after taking written consent. All patients were subjected to STOP BANG questionnaire and patients falling in intermediate-high risk (score 3-8), were taken for overnight polysomnography to confirm the diagnosis of OSA (apnea hypopnea index ≥ 5). Statistical Analysis Used Statistical Package for Social Sciences (SPSS) Version 21.0 statistical analysis software. Results Fifty-five percent of our diabetic population were having OSA. The age of patients enrolled in the study ranged between 30 and 86 years and prevalence increases with an increase in age groups. Majority (61.7%) of our cases were males. Incremental trend in weight, body mass index (BMI), neck circumference, and waist circumference of OSA cases were found with increasing in severity of OSA. Mean levels of raised blood sugar and HbA1c were higher in severe OSA cases. Conclusions OSA has a high prevalence in patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus. Patients with type 2 diabetes should be screened for OSA, even in the absence of symptoms, especially in individuals with higher waist circumference and BMI.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE Obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) is associated with insulin resistance and has been described as a risk factor for type 2 diabetes. Whether OSA adversely impacts pancreatic islet β-cell function remains unclear. We aimed to investigate the association of OSA and short sleep duration with β-cell function in overweight/obese adults with prediabetes or recently diagnosed, treatment-naive type 2 diabetes. RESEARCH DESIGN AND METHODS Two hundred twenty-one adults (57.5% men, age 54.5 ± 8.7 years, BMI 35.1 ± 5.5 kg/m2) completed 1 week of wrist actigraphy and 1 night of polysomnography before undergoing a 3-h oral glucose tolerance test (OGTT) and a two-step hyperglycemic clamp. Associations of measures of OSA and actigraphy-derived sleep duration with HbA1c, OGTT-derived outcomes, and clamp-derived outcomes were evaluated with adjusted regression models. RESULTS Mean ± SD objective sleep duration by actigraphy was 6.6 ± 1.0 h/night. OSA, defined as an apnea-hypopnea index (AHI) of five or more events per hour, was present in 89% of the participants (20% mild, 28% moderate, 41% severe). Higher AHI was associated with higher HbA1c (P = 0.007). However, OSA severity, measured either by AHI as a continuous variable or by categories of OSA severity, and sleep duration (continuous or <6 vs. ≥6 h) were not associated with fasting glucose, 2-h glucose, insulin sensitivity, or β-cell responses. CONCLUSIONS In this baseline cross-sectional analysis of the RISE clinical trial of adults with prediabetes or recently diagnosed, untreated type 2 diabetes, the prevalence of OSA was high. Although some measures of OSA severity were associated with HbA1c, OSA severity and sleep duration were not associated with measures of insulin sensitivity or β-cell responses.

Abstract
Obstructive sleep apnea-hypopnea syndrome (OSAHS) is a common sleep disorder, negatively influencing individuals' quality of life and socioeconomic burden. In recent years, OSAHS has been reported in not only constituting an aging-associated disease, but also in accelerating and/or potentiating aging mechanisms. However, the negative impacts of OSAHS on aging are underestimated because of low level of public awareness about this disease and high rates of undiagnosed cases, which are more critical in developing countries or economically disadvantaged regions. Hence, reviewing previously reported observations may assist scholars to better indicate that OSAHS is likely a novel potential risk for aging. Further understanding of the pathophysiological mechanism of OSAHS and its role in procession of aging may markedly highlight the importance of this common sleep disorder.

Abstract
Rationale: Sleep disorders are associated with hypertension and diabetes, which are primary risk factors for cardiovascular diseases and mortality. It is important to understand these associations in Hispanic/Latino individuals, in whom cardiovascular death is the leading cause of mortality.Objectives: To investigate the prospective associations of sleep-disordered breathing (SDB) and insomnia with incident hypertension and diabetes among U.S. Hispanic/Latino people over 6 years of follow-up and to assess potential sex differences in these associations.Methods: Data from 11,623 Hispanic/Latino participants in the Hispanic Community Health Study/Study of Latinos (visit 1, 2008-2011; visit 2, 2014-2017) were analyzed using survey logistic regression models, adjusting for potential confounders.Measurements and Main Results: SDB (apnea-hypopnea index of 5 or more) and insomnia (Women's Health Initiative Insomnia Rating Scale of 9 or more) were measured at baseline. Incident hypertension (stage 2 or greater) and diabetes were defined according to national guidelines. In the target population, 52.6% were women, with a mean age of 41.1 ± 14.9 years at baseline. SDB was associated with 1.54 higher adjusted odds of incident hypertension (95% confidence interval [CI], 1.18-2.00) and 1.33 higher odds of incident diabetes (95% CI, 1.05-1.67) compared with no SDB. Insomnia was associated with incident hypertension (odds ratio, 1.37; 95% CI, 1.11-1.69) but not with diabetes. The association between insomnia and incident hypertension was stronger among men than among women.Conclusions: SDB was associated with incident hypertension and diabetes. Insomnia was associated with incident hypertension. These findings support the importance of sleep disorders as modifiable targets for disease prevention and reduction.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE To determine the association of obstructive sleep apnea and nocturnal hypoxemia with serum lipid profiles in unselected community-dwelling men. METHODS Cross-sectional data from participants of the Men Androgen Inflammation Lifestyle Environment and Stress (MAILES) study (n=753) who underwent full in-home polysomnography (Embletta X100) was used. Triglycerides, high- (HDL), low-density lipoprotein (LDL), and total cholesterol were assessed on a fasting morning blood sample. Multivariable linear regression analyses assessed associations between lipids and continuous measures of nocturnal hypoxemia (oxygen desaturation index (3%) (ODI), apnea-hypopnea index (AHI), and rapid eye movement sleep apnea-hypopnea index (REM-AHI)), adjusted for chronic conditions, risk behavior and sociodemographic factors. Sensitivity analyses examined the effect of lipid lowering therapies on reported estimates. Effect modification was examined through stratification by waist circumference groups. RESULTS In 753 participants with mean (SD) age of 60.8 (10.9) years and waist circumference: 99.3 (11.6) cm, the prevalence of OSA (AHI≥10) was 52.6%. Overall, no significant associations between OSA metrics and lipid measures were found. Similarly, sensitivity analysis excluding lipid lowering therapies showed no significant associations. In analysis stratified by waist circumference (<95cm, 95-100cm, >100cm), ODI (3%, unstandardized B: 0.027, 95% CI: 0.015-0.040), AHI (0.023, 0.012-0.033) and AHIREM (0.012, 0.001-0.022) were positively associated with serum triglycerides in participants with a normal waist circumference (<95cm). CONCLUSION Obstructive sleep apnea metrics were positively associated with serum triglyceride levels in men with a normal waist circumference. Healthy weight individuals with OSA require clinical attention to improve cardiometabolic risk profiles.

Treatment Effects of Short-Term Continuous Positive Airway Pressure on Blood Glucose Control in Type 2 Diabetic Patients with Obstructive Sleep Apnea Syndrome. Int J Gen Med 2020; 13:1567-1573. [PMID: 33364818 PMCID: PMC7751775 DOI: 10.2147/ijgm.s280837] [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: 10/07/2020] [Accepted: 11/17/2020] [Indexed: 11/23/2022] Open
Abstract
Purpose The study aimed at assessing glucose control measured with a continuous glucose monitoring system (CGMS) before and after short-term continuous positive airway pressure (CPAP). Materials and Methods Twenty-four type 2 diabetic patients (T2DM) with Obstructive sleep apnea syndrome (OSAS) (mean age 55.0 ± 9.0 years; BMI 29.5 ± 5.2 kg/m2) were admitted and kept under diet control for 2 days, then underwent 2 overnight polysomnographies: a diagnostic study and one with CPAP titration. Then they were treated by CPAP during sleep for the following three nights. Participants were divided into subgroup D (only diet control) and subgroup M (with DM medication). CGMS was utilized over the last five days. Glucose control was also assessed with plasma insulin and a clinical measure of insulin resistance (HOMA-IR) index. Results The mean (±SD) apnea-hypopnea index (AHI) at diagnostic polysomnography was 51.2 ± 22.4 (range 10-88) events/h. CPAP treatment in the subjects with OSAS resulted in the index of oxygenation desaturations being reduced from 33.3 ± 20.1 to 1.1 ± 1.6 (P =0.00). CGMS showed mean 24-hours glucose values significantly lower after CPAP treatment than at baseline in both subgroups (7.97±1.31 vs 7.52±0.94, P=0.033 in subgroup D; and 7.72±1.51 vs 7.17±1.21, P=0.05 in subgroup M), as the fasting plasma insulin levels and HOMA-IR were also decreased significantly after CPAP treatment (13.0 ± 7.5μU/mL vs 10.8 ± 5.4μU/mL, P=0.044; and 4.2 ± 2.2 vs 3.1±1.7, P=0.003, respectively). Standard deviation (SD) and mean amplitude of glucose excursions (MAGE) were also decreased in the subgroup D (1.91 ± 1.10 vs 1.61 ± 1.20, P=0.014; 1.26 ± 1.13 vs 1.01 ± 0.98, P=0.008, respectively) only. Conclusion Short-term CPAP treatment in OSAS with type 2 diabetic patients is accompanied by a decrease in blood glucose level and improved insulin sensitivity. Glucose variability was reduced but only in the patients with diet control.

Long-Term Effects of Continuous Positive Airway Pressure (CPAP) Therapy on Obesity and Cardiovascular Comorbidities in Patients with Obstructive Sleep Apnea and Resistant Hypertension-An Observational Study. J Clin Med 2020; 9:jcm9092802. [PMID: 32872644 PMCID: PMC7564990 DOI: 10.3390/jcm9092802] [Citation(s) in RCA: 2] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.4] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 08/03/2020] [Revised: 08/23/2020] [Accepted: 08/28/2020] [Indexed: 12/15/2022] Open
Abstract
BACKGROUND We sought to investigate whether long-term continuous positive airway pressure (CPAP) treatment in patients with obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) and resistant hypertension (RHTN) could attenuate the cardiovascular disease risk by lowering their body-mass index (BMI). METHODS This was a long-term observational study of RHTN patients diagnosed with OSA. Patients were evaluated with polysomnography initially and after a mean follow-up period of four years. The patients were divided into two groups based on their compliance to CPAP therapy. RESULTS 33 patients (aged 54.67 ± 7.5, 18 men, 54.5%) were included in the study, of which 12 were compliant to CPAP therapy. A significant reduction in BMI at follow-up was noted in patients compliant to CPAP therapy (1.4 ± 3.5 vs. -1.6 ± 2.5, p = 0.006). We also noted a large effect size reduction in abdominal circumference at follow-up in the CPAP group. At follow-up evaluation, the mean heart rate (b/min) was lower in the CPAP group (58.6 ± 9.5 vs. 67.8 ± 7.8), while arrhythmia prevalence increased between initial (28.6%) and follow-up (42.9%) evaluation with an intermediate effect size in non-compliant patients. CONCLUSIONS In our cohort of OSA patients with RHTN, long-term adherence to CPAP therapy was associated with weight loss and improvement in cardiac rhythm outcomes.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE The objective of the study was to characterize obstructive sleep apnea treatment patterns among older Americans with neurological conditions. SETTING AND PARTICIPANTS Claims data from a 5% fee-for-service sample of Medicare beneficiaries were analyzed to determine the proportion of older adults with OSA who received and were adherent to continuous positive airway pressure therapy and examine potential gaps in OSA care among neurological populations. Logistic regression was used to determine whether gender or race/ethnicity modified the associations between neurological morbidities and OSA treatment or adherence. RESULTS Data from n = 102,618 beneficiaries with OSA were identified. The prevalence of stroke, cognitive disorders, or Parkinson's disease in this sample was 7%, 3%, and 2% respectively. Overall, OSA-diagnosed individuals (73%) obtained treatment, and most treated were adherent to CPAP (72%). Lower proportions of OSA treatment and adherence were observed in neurological conditions, particularly stroke. In logistic regression models, gender and race/ethnicity each modified associations between neurological comorbidity and OSA treatment and adherence. Women as compared to men with a given neurological condition were uniformly less likely to receive CPAP or adhere to treatment (P < .01 for each condition). Similarly, in comparison to whites with the same neurological condition, OSA treatment was significantly lower among all other races with stroke, and among blacks with cognitive disorders. CONCLUSIONS Older women and minorities with neurological conditions may be more vulnerable to gaps in OSA care. Targeted strategies to improve treatment disparities and neurological outcomes in older adults could be informed by these data.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE To analyze the cost associated with sleep apnea and effects of continuous positive airway pressure (CPAP) treatment on costs among fee-for-service Medicare beneficiaries. METHODS Retrospective cohort design using 5% Medicare claims between 2006 and 2010. Medicare beneficiaries with and without sleep apnea diagnosis between 2007 and 2008 were identified and followed retrospectively for 2 years pre-index-date and 2 years post-index-date. We defined CPAP fill as at least one durable medical equipment claim for CPAP in 6-month period. At least three CPAP fills was defined as "full adherence," and one or two CPAP fills was "partial adherence." We used interrupted time series and generalized linear log-link models to study the association between sleep apnea, CPAP treatment, and costs. To minimize bias, we used propensity score and instrumental variables approach. RESULTS Sleep apnea was associated with higher costs (odds ratio [OR] = 1.60; 95% confidence interval [CI] = 1.58, 1.63) compared to those without sleep apnea. Almost half of those with sleep apnea received CPAP treatment. Interrupted time series analysis indicated post level increase in mean monthly cost for full CPAP adherence group, partial CPAP adherence group and no-CPAP group. However, the increase was smallest for the full CPAP adherence group. Full CPAP adherence was associated with lower change in cost (OR = 0.92; 95% CI = 0.88, 0.97) compared to the no-CPAP group. CONCLUSIONS Medicare beneficiaries with sleep apnea experience increased cost. Full adherence to CPAP treatment for sleep apnea was associated with lower increase in cost. These findings emphasize the need to effectively identify and treat sleep apnea in Medicare patients.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION Obesity-associated asthma (OA) is frequently severe, with an increased rate of hospitalizations, numerous comorbidities and low response to corticosteroids. Despite progress in applying for personalized medicine in asthma, no specific recommendations exist for the management of OA. AREAS COVERED The aim of this review is to summarize recent data about the relationship obesity-asthma, describe clinical characteristics, potential mechanisms involved and possible therapeutic interventions to improve OA outcomes. Extensive research in the PubMed was performed using the following terms: "asthma and obesity" and "obese asthma" in combination with "phenotypes", "airway inflammation", "biomarkers", "lung function", "weight loss", "lifestyle interventions", "therapies" Currently two phenotypes are described. Early-onset atopic asthma is conventional allergic asthma aggravated by the pro-inflammatory properties of adipose tissue in excess, while late-onset non-atopic asthma is due to airway dysfunction as a consequence of the chronic lung compression caused by the obese chest walls. Previous data showed that different therapeutic strategies used in weight loss have a positive impact on OA outcomes. EXPERT OPINION The presence of a multidisciplinary team (chest physician, nutritionist, exercise physiologist, physiotherapist, psychologist, bariatric surgeon) and the collaboration between different specialists are mandatory to optimize the management and to apply the personalized medicine in OA.

Efficacy of continuous positive airway pressure on subcutaneous adipose tissue in patients with obstructive sleep apnea: a meta-analysis of randomized controlled trials. Sleep Breath 2020; 25:1-8. [PMID: 32333260 DOI: 10.1007/s11325-020-02078-1] [Citation(s) in RCA: 1] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.2] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 02/24/2020] [Revised: 03/22/2020] [Accepted: 03/31/2020] [Indexed: 10/24/2022]
Abstract
PURPOSE It remains inconclusive whether continuous positive airway pressure (CPAP) therapy can significantly reduce subcutaneous adipose tissue (SAT) in patients with obstructive sleep apnea (OSA). This meta-analysis of randomized controlled trials (RCTs) aimed to evaluate the impact of CPAP treatment on SAT in patients with OSA. METHODS We searched Pubmed, Cochrane, Web of Science, and Embase for RCTs, which investigated the effectiveness of CPAP treatment in reducing SAT among patients with OSA. Following the PRISMA guidelines, we extracted information on the study and patient characteristics, and pre- and post-CPAP measures of SAT. We then calculated the overall effects using the standardized mean difference (SMD) with a 95% confidence interval (CI). RESULTS A total of 5 RCTs (comprising 153 patients) met inclusion criteria for the meta-analysis. We found that the SAT did not change before and after CPAP treatment in patients with OSA (SMD = - 0.02, 95% CI - 0.25 to 0.2, z = 0.19, p = 0.85). Subgroup analyses indicated that the outcome was not affected by age, CPAP therapy duration, baseline body mass index, and measure utilized. CONCLUSION This meta-analysis of RCTs suggests that CPAP therapy does not significantly decrease the level of SAT among patients with OSA. Further large-scale, and high-quality randomized controlled trials are needed to better address this issue.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Although highly effective in the treatment of obstructive sleep apnoea (OSA), continuous positive airway pressure (CPAP) is not universally accepted by users. Educational, supportive and behavioural interventions may help people with OSA initiate and maintain regular and continued use of CPAP. OBJECTIVES To assess the effectiveness of educational, supportive, behavioural, or mixed (combination of two or more intervention types) strategies that aim to encourage adults who have been prescribed CPAP to use their devices. SEARCH METHODS Searches were conducted on the Cochrane Airways Group Specialised Register of trials. Searches are current to 29 April 2019. SELECTION CRITERIA We included randomised controlled trials (RCTs) that assessed intervention(s) designed to inform participants about CPAP/OSA, to support them in using CPAP, or to modify their behaviour to increase use of CPAP devices. DATA COLLECTION AND ANALYSIS We assessed studies to determine their suitability for inclusion in the review. Data were extracted independently and were entered into RevMan for analysis. 'Risk of bias' assessments were performed, using the updated 'Risk of bias 2' tool, for the primary outcome, CPAP usage. Study-level 'Risk of bias' assessments were performed using the original 'Risk of bias' tool. GRADE assessment was performed using GRADEpro. MAIN RESULTS Forty-one studies (9005 participants) are included in this review; 16 of these studies are newly identified with updated searches. Baseline Epworth Sleepiness Scale (ESS) scores indicate that most participants suffered from excessive daytime sleepiness. The majority of recruited participants had not used CPAP previously. When examining risk of bias for the primary outcome of hourly machine usage/night, 58.3% studies have high overall risk (24/41 studies), 39.0% have some concerns (16/41 studies), and 2.4% have low overall risk (1/41 studies). We are uncertain whether educational interventions improve device usage, as the certainty of evidence was assessed as very low. We were unable to perform meta-analyses for number of withdrawals and symptom scores due to high study heterogeneity. Supportive interventions probably increase device usage by 0.70 hours/night (95% confidence interval (CI) 0.36 to 1.05, N = 1426, 13 studies, moderate-certainty evidence), and low-certainty evidence indicates that the number of participants who used their devices ≥ 4 hours/night may increase from 601 to 717 per 1000 (odds ratio (OR), 1.68, 95% CI 1.08 to 2.60, N = 376, 2 studies). However, the number of withdrawals may also increase from 136 to 167 per 1000 (OR 1.27, 95% CI 0.97 to 1.66, N = 1702, 11 studies, low-certainty evidence). Participants may experience small improvements in symptoms (ESS score -0.32 points, 95% CI -1.19 to 0.56, N = 470, 5 studies, low-certainty evidence), and we are uncertain whether quality of life improves with supportive interventions, as the certainty of evidence was assessed as very low. When compared with usual care, behavioural interventions produce a clinically-meaningful increase in device usage by 1.31 hours/night (95% CI 0.95 to 1.66, N = 578, 8 studies, high-certainty evidence), probably increase the number of participants who used their machines ≥ 4 hours/night from 371 to 501 per 1000 (OR 1.70, 95% CI 1.20 to 2.41, N = 549, 6 studies, high-certainty evidence), and reduce the number of study withdrawals from 146 to 101 per 1000 (OR 0.66, 95% CI 0.44 to 0.98, N = 939, 10 studies, high-certainty evidence). Behavioural interventions may reduce symptoms (ESS score -2.42 points, 95% CI -4.27 to -0.57, N = 272, 5 studies, low-certainty evidence), but probably have no effect on quality of life (Functional Outcomes of Sleep Questionnaire (FOSQ), standardised mean difference (SMD) 0.00, 0.95% CI -0.26 to 0.26, N = 228, 3 studies, moderate-certainty evidence). We are uncertain whether behavioural interventions improve apnoea hypopnoea index (AHI), as the certainty of evidence was assessed as very low. We are uncertain if mixed interventions improve device usage, increase the number of participants using their machines ≥ 4 hours/night, reduce study withdrawals, improve quality of life, or reduce anxiety symptoms, as the certainty of evidence for these outcomes was assessed to be very low. Symptom scores via the ESS could not be measured due to considerable heterogeneity between studies. AUTHORS' CONCLUSIONS In CPAP-naïve people with OSA, high-certainty evidence indicates that behavioural interventions yield a clinically-significant increase in hourly device usage when compared with usual care. Moderate certainty evidence shows that supportive interventions increase usage modestly. Very low-certainty evidence shows that educational and mixed interventions may modestly increase CPAP usage. The impact of improved CPAP usage on daytime sleepiness, quality of life, and mood and anxiety scores remains unclear since these outcomes were not assessed in the majority of included studies. Studies addressing the choice of interventions that best match individual patient needs and therefore result in the most successful and cost-effective therapy are needed.

Abstract
BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVE Body weight of patients with obstructive sleep apnea after initiation of nasal continuous positive airway pressure appears to increase. We hypothesized that intermittent hypoxia (IH) will decrease energy expenditure (EE), and that normoxic recovery will lead to body weight gains. METHODS C57BL/6 J male mice were exposed to either 12 h/day of mild IH (alternating FIO2-10-11% and 21%; 640 s cycle), or severe IH (FIO2-6-7%-21%; 180 s cycle) or sham IH daily for 4 or 8 weeks. After exposures, EE was evaluated while mice were kept under normoxia for 5 weeks and organ histology was evaluated. RESULTS EE was not decreased by IH. However, visceral white adipocyte size after normoxic recovery was significantly increased in severe IH in an intensity-dependent manner. CONCLUSION Our hypothesis that IH would decrease EE was not corroborated. However, IH and normoxic recovery seem to promote severity-dependent enlargement of visceral adipocytes, likely reflecting altered energy preservation mechanisms induced by IH.

Abstract
CONTEXT Sleep that is insufficient, misaligned, or disrupted causes hypersomnolence and neuropsychological deficits, adversely affects cardiometabolic health, and is increasingly recognized to impair other biological processes that lead to conditions important to men, such as hypogonadism, erectile dysfunction, and infertility. EVIDENCE ACQUISITION Literature review from 1970 to December 2018. EVIDENCE SYNTHESIS High-quality and complementary epidemiological and interventional studies establish that abnormal sleep is associated with increased mortality, hypertension, and other cardiometabolic disorders (insufficient, disrupted, and misaligned sleep), as well as reduced fecundity and total sperm count (insufficient sleep), erectile dysfunction (disrupted sleep), and low testosterone (both). Circadian misalignment shifts the peak of testosterone's diurnal rhythm to occur soon after waking up, irrespective of the biological clock time, but it does not change the mean concentration. Preliminary studies show that extending sleep in individuals who are chronically sleep deprived may become a strategy to reduce insulin resistance and hypertension. Continuous positive airway pressure therapy can improve erectile function, and possibly systemic testosterone exposure, but only when used adherently by men with obstructive sleep apnea. Both high-dose and replacement-dose testosterone therapies modestly worsen sleep-disordered breathing, but they also improve cardiometabolic function and sexual desire. Persistence of either the adverse or beneficial outcomes over the longer term requires further investigation. CONCLUSIONS Sleep is increasingly recognized to be essential for healthy living. Establishing the effect of abnormal sleep, and of improving sleep, on andrological issues of prime interest to men will promote prioritization of sleep, and may thereby improve overall long-term health outcomes.

Abstract
Obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) is a prevalent sleep related breathing disorder characterized by repetitive collapse of the upper airways leading to intermittent hypoxia and sleep disruption. Clinically relevant neurocognitive, metabolic and cardiovascular disease often occurs in OSA. Systemic hypertension, coronary artery disease, type 2 diabetes mellitus, cerebral vascular infarctions and atrial fibrillation are among the most often cited conditions with causal connections to OSA. Emerging science suggest that untreated and undertreated OSA increases the risk of developing cognitive impairment, including vascular dementia and neurodegenerative disorders, like Alzheimer’s disease. As with OSA, cardiovascular disease and type 2 diabetes mellitus, the incidence of dementia increases with age. Given our rapidly aging population, dementia prevalence will significantly increase. The aim of this treatise is to review current literature linking OSA to dementia and explore putative mechanisms by which OSA might facilitate the development and progression of dementia.

STUDY OBJECTIVES Self-reported sleepiness is common in patients with obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) and is being increasingly recognized as an effect modifier of the association between OSA and cardiovascular outcomes. However, data on whether sleepiness modifies the association between OSA and glycemic outcomes are lacking. The current study sought to characterize the association between glycemic control and sleepiness in people with OSA and type 2 diabetes. METHODS Adults with non-insulin requiring type 2 diabetes and undiagnosed moderate to severe OSA were recruited from the community. Demographic data, Epworth Sleepiness Scale (ESS), hemoglobin A1c (HbA1c), as well a type III home sleep test were obtained. The association between self-reported sleepiness and glycemic control was examined using quantile regression. RESULTS The study cohort included 311 participants with 56% of the sample being men. Stratified analyses by sex demonstrated that self-reported sleepiness was associated with a higher HbA1c level, but this association was present only in men with a body mass index (BMI) < 35 kg/m2. Mean HbA1c levels were higher by 0.57% (95% confidence interval: 0.11, 1.02) in men with an ESS ≥ 11 compared to men with an ESS < 11. No such association was observed in men with a BMI ≥ 35 kg/m2 or in women of any BMI category. CONCLUSIONS The association between self-reported sleepiness and glycemic control in people with type 2 diabetes and moderate to severe OSA varies a function of BMI and sex. The noted differences in association should be considered when assessing possible treatment effects of therapy for OSA on metabolic outcomes.

Abstract
The Diabetes Sleep Treatment Trial (DSTT) is a multi-site, double-blinded, randomized, sham-controlled trial. The study objective is to test whether treatment of obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) with continuous positive airway pressure (CPAP) treatment results in improved glycemic control and diabetes self-management behavior compared to participants on a sham-CPAP (sub-therapeutic) device in participants with type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) and co-morbid OSA. The purpose of this paper is to describe the premise for the DSTT, the study design, and the methodology used in this on-going trial. The target enrollment is 210 randomly assigned participants recruited from two sites. The primary outcome for glucose control is HbA1C; additional outcomes for diabetes self-management include objectively measured steps walked and subjectively measured diabetes-related distress, diabetes empowerment, and diabetes knowledge. All participants receive individual diabetes education and counseling for 6 weeks over two individual sessions and three telephone calls. Participants are randomized to receive either sham or active CPAP for 12 weeks, after which, they "guess" their group assignment; this will assist in determining the success of blinding participants to treatment group assignment. Participants revealed to be on active CPAP will be encouraged to continue CPAP for an additional 12 weeks; participants who had been on sham devices will be encouraged to have a repeat CPAP titration study and to crossover to active CPAP treatment for 24 weeks. An intention-to-treat approach will be used for efficacy analyses. The trial is registered with Clinicaltrials.gov (NCT01901055).

Abstract
The aim of the present review was to clarify the association between obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) and type 2 diabetes, and discuss the therapeutic role of continuous positive airway pressure (CPAP) in type 2 diabetes. OSA patients are more likely than non-OSA populations to develop type 2 diabetes, while more than half of type 2 diabetes patients suffer from OSA. Similar to Western countries, in the East Asian population, the association between these two disorders has also been reported. CPAP is the primary treatment for OSA, but the effect of CPAP on comorbid diabetes has not been established. CPAP improved glucose metabolism determined by the oral glucose tolerance test in OSA patients, and several studies have shown that CPAP improves insulin resistance, particularly in obese populations undergoing long-term CPAP. Diabetes is associated with other sleep-related manifestations as well, such as snoring and excessive daytime sleepiness. Snoring is associated with the development of diabetes, and excessive daytime sleepiness appears to modify insulin resistance. Well-designed studies are required to clarify the therapeutic effect of CPAP on diabetes. As both diabetes and OSA lead to cardiovascular disease, clinicians and healthcare professionals should be aware of the association between diabetes and OSA, and should take CPAP and health-related behaviors into consideration when treating patients with diabetes and/or OSA.

Abstract
AIMS To investigate whether body composition measures can be used for screening obstructive sleep apnea syndrome (OSAS) in patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) suspected of having OSAS. METHODS Subjects were 186 hospital inpatients with inadequately controlled T2DM. We measured the respiratory disturbance index (RDI) as an indicator of OSAS using a sheet-type breath detection monitor, defining OSAS as an RDI ≥ 19 events/hour. Elementary body composition was measured by bioelectrical impedance analysis using InBody770. RESULTS Simple logistic regression analysis identified body weight, body mass index (BMI), waist circumference, total body fat mass, body fat percentage, and body muscle-to-fat ratio (BMFR) as significantly associated with OSAS. The Nagelkerke R2 test showed that the BMFR was the most suitable measure for screening OSAS. Multivariate logistic regression analysis demonstrated that BMFR was significantly and independently associated with OSAS. In receiver operating characteristic curve analysis, the area under the BMFR curve was 0.70 (P < 0.001), indicating that BMFR was significantly predictive of OSAS. Furthermore, BMFR was the most suitable measure for screening OSAS in a sub-group analysis of non-obese patients with relatively low BMI (<27.5 kg/m2). CONCLUSIONS In patients with T2DM, the BMFR is useful for screening OSAS in daily clinical practice.

Abstract
STUDY OBJECTIVES Obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) is associated with nonalcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD) and related advanced fibrosis. We studied the treatment of OSA with continuous positive airway pressure (CPAP) in a population with NAFLD. METHODS Using an institutional database (2010-2014), we identified patients with NAFLD and OSA and studied changes in serum aminotransferases before and after CPAP use. We defined suspected NAFLD (sNAFLD) as serum alanine aminotransferase (ALT) > 30 U/L for men and > 19 U/L for women in the absence of known causes of chronic liver disease. The aspartate aminotransferase (AST) to platelet ratio index (APRI) was used to determine significant fibrosis. Consistent CPAP use for more than 3 months with adequate adherence parameters defined good adherence. RESULTS Of 351 patients with OSA on CPAP treatment, majority (mean age 57.6 years, 59.3% male) had abnormal ALT, and 89.4% met the criteria for sNAFLD. The prevalence of sNAFLD was higher among patients with moderate to severe OSA (90.6%) versus mild OSA (86.3%). There was a statistically significant improvement in AST, ALT, and APRI with CPAP therapy (all P < .01). There was an apparent dose-response relationship: patients with good adherence to CPAP showed a significantly larger decrease in AST and ALT than did those with poor adherence (P < .01). Multivariable logistic regression analysis showed CPAP treatment with adequate adherence (odds ratio = 3.93, 95% confidence interval = 1.29-11.94) was an independent predictor of regression of sNAFLD after adjusting for obesity class and severity of OSA. CONCLUSIONS OSA treatment with CPAP was associated with significant biochemical improvement and reduction in NAFLD-related fibrosis.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION A high prevalence of OSA has been observed in asthma populations, with detrimental impact on clinical outcomes. AIM To determine if CPAP treatment of co-existing OSA improves asthma-related symptoms and quality of life. METHODS Literature review of EMBASE and MEDLINE databases prior to July 2017. Study populations included asthmatics with co-existing OSA treated with CPAP, and ≥1 asthma-related clinical outcome measure. RESULTS 12 studies; 8 prospective quasi-experimental and 4 observational. Mean CPAP duration; 19.5 (2-100) weeks. Meta-analysis demonstrated significant improvement in mean Asthma Quality of Life Questionnaire scores (AQLQ and mini-AQLQ); 0.59 (95%CI; 0.25, 0.92), p = 0.0006. No significant improvement was demonstrated in forced expiratory volume in 1 s (FEV1)% predicted; 0.32 (95%CI; -2.84, 3.47), p = 0.84. Asthma Control Test/Asthma Control Questionnaire improved in 2 studies, with no improvement in 1 study. 4 studies demonstrated improvement in asthma daytime/night-time symptoms, and 3 studies showed improved asthma severity. CONCLUSION Asthmatics with co-existing OSA can experience improved quality of life with CPAP treatment. This effect appears more pronounced in severe OSA or poorly controlled asthma.

Abstract
Objective Sleep apnea syndrome is more prevalent among men than women and is frequently accompanied by metabolic syndrome (MetS). However, gender differences in the effect of sleep-disordered breathing (SDB) leading to the risk of MetS remain unclear. The aim of our study was to investigate the clinical characteristics of SDB in women and the differential influence of SDB on MetS between genders. Methods In a single-center retrospective study, we compared the data of 1,809 consecutive SDB patients by gender to clarify the characteristics of sleep disorders in women. We also compared the prevalence of MetS and its related abnormalities by gender. A logistic regression analysis was used to determine the contributory factors for MetS. Results The mean age and proportion of patients over 50 years of age were higher in women than in men. SDB was milder in women than in men according to polysomnography findings. Elevated Hemoglobin A1c levels and hyperlipidemia were less frequent in women than in men. The MetS prevalence was similar in women and men (30.0% vs. 35.2%). A logistic regression analysis showed that the apnea-hypopnea index (AHI) was an independent risk factor for MetS in both genders, but that female gender was independently associated with a decreased prevalence of MetS and its related abnormalities. Conclusion Female SDB patients tend to be older with milder apnea and sleepiness than male SDB patients. A higher AHI is a significant risk factor for MetS in both genders, although female gender is an independent inhibitory factor for developing MetS in SDB patients.

Abstract
Objectives: Obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) is more prevalent in men and is an independent risk factor for type 2 diabetes. We aimed to determine if there are sex differences in the impact of OSA on glucose metabolism in nondiabetic overweight and obese adults. Methods: One hundred and forty-five men and women (age 33.4 ± 0.6, BMI 37.2 ± 0.7, 70.3% blacks) from the community underwent in-laboratory polysomnography. Severity of OSA was assessed by the apnea-hypopnea index (AHI). Glucose tolerance was assessed using fasting glucose, 1-h glucose, 2-h glucose and the area under the curve (AUC) during the 2-h oral glucose tolerance test (OGTT). Fasting insulin resistance was assessed by HOMA-IR, and insulin sensitivity during the OGTT was assessed by the Matsuda Index. Pancreatic beta-cell function was assessed by fasting HOMA-%B and by AUCinsulin/glucose, insulinogenic index, and oral disposition index (DIoral) during the OGTT. All comparisons were adjusted for age, BMI, race and severity of OSA. Results: There were no significant demographic differences between men and women without OSA. Men and women with OSA were similar in age, BMI, and severity of OSA, but there were more black women with OSA. Compared to women with OSA, men with OSA had significantly higher fasting glucose, 1-h glucose levels, AUCglucose, and AUC for insulin secretion rate (AUCISR) but similar 2-h glucose levels. These differences persisted in adjusted analyses. Men with OSA secreted significantly more insulin than women with OSA in order to achieve similar glucose levels. Men with OSA had significantly worse beta cell function as measured by the DIoral than women with OSA. In contrast, there were no significant sex differences in measures of glucose tolerance and beta-cell function in participants without OSA. Conclusion: Men with OSA secreted more insulin compared to women with OSA in order to maintain glucose homeostasis. The adverse impact of OSA on beta-cell responsiveness was larger in men, which may result in an overall greater risk of type 2 diabetes compared to women.

Abstract
Obstructive sleep apnea syndrome is a disorder of sleep breathing that is a result of recurrent and intermittent hypoxia during sleep induced by the repeated partial or complete collapse of the upper airway, eventually causing chronic intermittent hypoxia. Non-alcoholic fatty liver disease is divided into non-alcoholic fatty liver and non-alcoholic steatohepatitis. Animal and human studies showed that obesity is associated with chronic liver hypoxia, even in the presence of systemic normoxia causing inflammation and release of cytokines. A "two-hit" model has been proposed. The first hit is characterized by insulin resistance and excess hepatic lipid accumulation secondary to abnormal fatty acid metabolism. Oxidative stress and inflammation are thought to comprise the second hit. Gold standard for the diagnosis of non-alcoholic steatohepatitis is a liver biopsy. Many clinical scores and non-invasive tools are used for the diagnosis of non-alcoholic steatohepatitis. Conservative management with lifestyle modifications including diet, exercise and weight loss remains the therapy of choice today. We present a case report of a 39-year-old man who was diagnosed with concomitant non-alcoholic steatohepatitis and severe obstructive sleep apnea. He was started treatment with continuous positive airway pressure and demonstrated excellent adherence to therapy for 6 years, with concomitant obstructive sleep apnea and non-alcoholic steatohepatitis which reversed with prolonged optimal continuous positive airway pressure therapy. Physical examination remained unremarkable except for morbid obesity. His abdominal girth, as well as body mass index, remained unchanged. After 6 years of optimal continuous positive airway pressure therapy, liver enzymes and relevant lipid panel normalized, suggesting reversal of non-alcoholic steatohepatitis.

Abstract
Polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS) is a complex endocrine disorder affecting the reproductive, metabolic and psychological health of women. Clinic-based studies indicate that sleep disturbances and disorders including obstructive sleep apnea and excessive daytime sleepiness occur more frequently among women with PCOS compared to comparison groups without the syndrome. Evidence from the few available population-based studies is supportive. Women with PCOS tend to be overweight/obese, but this only partly accounts for their sleep problems as associations are generally upheld after adjustment for body mass index; sleep problems also occur in women with PCOS of normal weight. There are several, possibly bidirectional, pathways through which PCOS is associated with sleep disturbances. The pathophysiology of PCOS involves hyperandrogenemia, a form of insulin resistance unique to affected women, and possible changes in cortisol and melatonin secretion, arguably reflecting altered hypothalamic-pituitary-adrenal function. Psychological and behavioral pathways are also likely to play a role, as anxiety and depression, smoking, alcohol use and lack of physical activity are also common among women with PCOS, partly in response to the distressing symptoms they experience. The specific impact of sleep disturbances on the health of women with PCOS is not yet clear; however, both PCOS and sleep disturbances are associated with deterioration in cardiometabolic health in the longer term and increased risk of type 2 diabetes. Both immediate quality of life and longer-term health of women with PCOS are likely to benefit from diagnosis and management of sleep disorders as part of interdisciplinary health care.

Abstract
Obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) may play an important role in the progression of nonalcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD).The effect of continuous positive airway pressure (CPAP) treatment, the first-line therapy for OSA, on liver disease in OSA patients is still debated. We provide this review of previous studies to summarize the effects of CPAP treatment on liver disease in OSA patients in aspects of liver function, liver steatosis, fibrosis, and incidence of liver disease. CPAP treatment may be beneficial to liver disease in subjects with OSA independent of metabolic risk factors, but a sufficiently long therapeutic duration (perhaps greater than 3 months) may be needed to achieve these positive effects. Though the mechanism of impact of CPAP treatment on liver in OSA patients is unclear, the influence of CPAP treatment on the factors of the "Two-hit" hypothesis (insulin resistance, fatty acids dysregulation, oxidative stress, and inflammation) may be a reasonable explanation.

Abstract
AIMS Obstructive sleep apnoea-hypopnoea (OSAH) is a prevalent condition characterized by repetitive pharyngeal collapse during sleep, leading to hypoxemia, hypercapnia, and persistent inspiratory efforts against an occluded airway until arousal. Several studies demonstrated that OSAH exerts acute and chronic effects on the cardiovascular system. Thus, although being a respiratory problem, the most important consequences of OSAH are cardiovascular, among which there are arrhythmias. The purpose of this review is to systematically analyse what has been recently published about the relationship between OSAH and every cardiac arrhythmia separately. METHODS We searched Pubmed, Scopus, Web of Science and Cochrane Collaboration databases for 'OSAHS arrhythmias', 'OSAH arrhythmias' and 'OSA arrhythmias'. We analyse 1298 articles and meta-analyses, excluding already edited reviews. RESULTS Arrhythmias, especially of ventricular origin, are frequent in OSAH. Ventricular premature beats, couplets and ventricular tachycardia runs are even more frequent in patients suffering from heart failure. They may be due to left heart remodelling, overwork and ischaemia and can explain at least some sudden deaths occurring between midnight and 6 a.m. Sinus pauses and atrioventricular blocks are increased according to the severity of the disturbance and may be reduced by continuous positive airway pressure therapy, preventing pace-maker implantation. Finally, atrial fibrillation, resistance against antiarrhythmic drugs and recurrences after surgical procedures are strongly related to OSAH. CONCLUSION Arrhythmias are frequent in OSAH. Treatment of OSAH may reduce some of them. An implantable cardioverter-defibrillator and continuous positive airway pressure should be considered in some patients.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE Individuals with multiple metabolic risk factors often experience concomitant sleep-disordered breathing (SDB). We aimed to determine the associations of SDB with individual components of metabolic syndrome independent of obesity. METHODS A cross-sectional study was conducted in 1137 employees aged 30-64 years. Apnea-hypopnea index (AHI) was assessed using a portable monitor for obstructive sleep apnea by admission. Of these, 451 participants took an oral glucose tolerance test to assess homeostatic model assessment of insulin resistance (HOMA-IR) and Matsuda insulin sensitivity index (ISI). RESULTS The odds ratio (OR) of the highest category of the AHI (≥15 episodes per hour) compared to the lowest one (<5 episodes per hour) was significantly elevated for hypertension, for hypertriglyceridemia, and for low HDL-cholesterolemia when adjusted for age, sex, and alcohol and smoking status (p < 0.05). After further adjustment for body mass index (BMI) or waist circumference, the associations for hypertension still remained statistically significant (p < 0.05) while those for hypertriglyceridemia and low HDL-cholesterolemia were no longer significant. The association between higher insulin resistance as assessed by HOMA-IR and Matsuda ISI and higher categories of the AHI was also lost after adjustment for BMI. CONCLUSION Obesity was a strong confounding factor in the association between SDB and most metabolic risk factors including insulin resistance, except for hypertension. Further longitudinal study is needed to examine the temporal or causal relationships between SDB and metabolic risk factors. This trial is registered with UMIN-CTR UMIN000028067.

Abstract
Background Obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) is a common condition in middle-aged persons worldwide. The major factor risk of this disease is obesity. Methods A cross-sectional study was performed at King Abdul-Aziz Specialist Hospital. A STOP-BANG questionnaire formed of eight questions was used to assess the risk of OSA among type 2 diabetic patients. The scoring scale is categorized into three groups: low (0 - 2), intermediate (3 - 4) and high (5 - 8), respectively. By this study, we aimed to assess the risk of OSA among diabetes patients in Taif city. Results Of the patients, 57.9% had mild risk, 26.9% had moderate risk and 15.2% had severe risk for OSA. There was a moderate positive relationship between age and STOP-BANG score. There was no significant correlation between the score and last fasting blood sugar and HbA1c’s level, with P values of 0.554 and 0.335, respectively. There was a significant relationship between the type of treatment and the risk of developing OSA (P < 0.001). Percentage of patients with severe risk was significantly higher in those taking both insulin and oral drugs than those taking insulin alone or oral drugs alone. Conclusions The OSA risk and prevalence is much higher in diabetics than in general population, with the risk increasing with age. The risk is higher in diabetic patients who are receiving both oral hypoglycemic drugs and insulin. The screening of OSA among diabetic patients is necessary to identify those at severe risk and manage this problem, which may remain undiagnosed in many patients.

Abstract
Obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) is a prevalent sleep disorder as is hypertension (HTN) in the 21st century with the rising incidence of obesity. Numerous studies have shown a strong association of OSA with cardiovascular morbidity and mortality. There is overwhelming evidence supporting the relationship between OSA and hypertension (HTN). The pathophysiology of HTN in OSA is complex and dependent on various factors such as sympathetic tone, renin-angiotensin-aldosterone system, endothelial dysfunction, and altered baroreceptor reflexes. The treatment of OSA is multifactorial ranging from CPAP to oral appliances to lifestyle modifications to antihypertensive drugs. OSA and HTN both need prompt diagnosis and treatment to help address the growing cardiovascular morbidity and mortality due to these two entities.

Abstract
Para el tratamiento de cualquier enfermedad es necesario un adecuado manejo multidisciplinar e involucrar al paciente en la mejor opción que se requiera a largo plazo; la falta de tratamiento de los pacientes implica una enorme carga para el sistema sanitario y la sociedad. En la actualidad, existen diferentes tratamientos para los pacientes con síndrome de apnea-hipopnea obstructiva del sueño (SAHOS); el de mayor elección, después de descartar anomalías anatómicas susceptibles de cirugía, es el PAP (presión positiva en vía aérea). Las indicaciones para terapia con PAP incluyen pacientes con índice de apnea-hipopnea (IAH) ≥15 eventos/hora o ≥5 y ≤14 eventos/hora y quejas de somnolencia diurna excesiva, deterioro cognitivo, trastorno del afecto o insomnio, hipertensión arterial documentada, enfermedad arterial coronaria o historia de evento cerebrovascular. Es importante recordar que el IAH debe basarse en sueño ≥2 horas de registro polisomnográfico. Hay diferentes modalidades de tratamiento con PAP y se debe intervenir para buscar mejorar la adherencia al dispositivo, principal limitante para alcanzar la eficacia en el tratamiento. El impacto del tratamiento del SAHOS ha sido investigado, pero la mayoría de los estudios reportados son de carácter observacional.

Abstract
Obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) is one of the most common sleep disorders. Since aging is a risk factor for OSA development, it is expected that its prevalence will increase with the current increase in life span. In recent years, several studies have shown that OSA potentially contributes to functional decline, mainly prompted by chronic intermittent hypoxia and sleep fragmentation. Here, we propose that OSA might anticipate/aggravate aging by inducing cellular and molecular impairments that characterize the aging process, such as stem cell exhaustion, telomere attrition and epigenetic changes. We suggest that further knowledge on the impact of OSA on aging mechanisms might contribute to a better understanding of how OSA might putatively accelerate aging and aging-related diseases.

Abstract
RATIONALE Disrupted energy homeostasis in obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) may lead to weight gain. Paradoxically, treating OSA with continuous positive airway pressure (CPAP) may also promote weight gain, although the underlying mechanism remains unclear. OBJECTIVES To explore the underlying mechanism by which patients with OSA gain weight after CPAP. METHODS A comprehensive assessment of energy metabolism was performed in 63 newly diagnosed OSA study participants (51 men; 60.8 ± 10.1 yr; apnea-hypopnea index >20 h(-1)) at baseline, CPAP initiation, and at a 3-month follow-up. Measurements included polysomnography, body weight, body composition, basal metabolic rate (BMR), hormones (norepinephrine, cortisol, leptin, ghrelin, insulin-like growth factor-1), dietary intake, eating behavior, and physical activity. MEASUREMENTS AND MAIN RESULTS BMR significantly decreased after CPAP (1,584 kcal/d at baseline, 1,561 kcal/d at CPAP initiation, and 1,508 kcal/d at follow-up; P < 0.001), whereas physical activity and total caloric intake did not significantly change. In multivariate regression, baseline apnea-hypopnea index, Δurine norepinephrine, and CPAP adherence were significant predictors of ΔBMR. The weight gainers had higher leptin levels, lower ghrelin levels, and higher eating behavior scores than the non-weight gainers, indicating a positive energy balance and disordered eating behavior among the weight gainers. Among the parameters related to energy metabolism, increased caloric intake was a particularly significant predictor of weight gain. CONCLUSIONS Although a reduction in BMR after CPAP predisposes to a positive energy balance, dietary intake and eating behavior had greater impacts on weight change. These findings highlight the importance of lifestyle modifications combined with CPAP. Clinical trial registered with http://www.umin.ac.jp/english/ (UMIN000012639).
