Links Between OSA and White Matter Hyperintensities Common in Brain Aging
Researchers explored the relationship between OSA and white matter hyperintensities, which are associated with brain aging and dementia.

CPAP Therapy Did Not Reduce Atrial Fibrillation Burden in Obstructive Sleep Apnea
Continuous positive airway pressure (CPAP) therapy did not reduce the burden of atrial fibrillation (AF) in patients with paroxysmal AF and sleep apnea.
Dysphagia Prevalence, Characteristics Among Patients With Obstructive Sleep Apnea
Approximately one-sixth of patients with obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) have demonstrated symptoms of dysphagia.
Obstructive Sleep Apnea Associated With Specific Indicators of Aging
Obstructive sleep apnea in young patients results in pathophysiologic changes associated with aging.
Mild Cognitive Impairment Prevalence in Patients With Suspected OSA
A high prevalence of mild cognitive impairment has been reported in patients referred to sleep clinics for suspected obstructive sleep apnea.
Pitolisant as Adjunct Therapy to CPAP May Decrease Daytime Sleepiness in OSA
In patients with obstructive sleep apnea with residual sleepiness, the use of pitolisant as an adjunct to CPAP therapy significantly decreases subjective and objective sleepiness.
Acetazolamide May Improve AHI in Obstructive and Central Sleep Apnea
Patients with obstructive or central sleep apnea experienced improvements in apnea-hypopnea index following treatment with acetazolamide.
OSA Severity Reduced in Type 2 Diabetes With Lifestyle Interventions for Weight Loss
The use of intensive lifestyle intervention for weight loss in patients with type 2 diabetes has been shown to reduce the overall severity of obstructive sleep apnea.
Sleep-Disordered Breathing Associated With Impairments in Free Fatty Acid Metabolism
Patients with sleep-disordered breathing were more likely to have impairments in free fatty acid metabolism than those without sleep-disordered breathing.
Sleep Apnea Classification: Multi-Night Portable Monitoring vs Single-Night Assessment
Conducting only a single night of portable monitoring can misclassify disease severity in patients with mild to moderate sleep apnea.
