Resumen Objetivo: Determinar las características clínico-epidemiológicas, viabilidad diagnóstica de la poligrafía respiratoria domiciliaria y el tratamiento de pacientes con sospecha de apnea obstructiva del sueño (AOS) en riesgo cardiovascular. Métodos: Se realizó estudio observacional, transversal, descriptivo en pacientes atendidos en un servicio de consulta externa de cardiología con sospecha de AOS, de enero de 2015 a diciembre de 2019. La información se obtuvo de los expedientes médicos, se aplicó análisis estadístico descriptivo. Resultados: Se examinaron 138 expedientes, de las poligrafías respiratorias domiciliarias fueron descartadas solo el 8% por no cumplir con los estándares de calidad requeridos. Se demostró que el 89% padecían AOS, un 60% moderada a severa; predominó en hombres después de los 50 años. El principal ractores de riesgo cardiovascular fue hipertensión (89%). La cardiopatía más prevalente fue la hipertensiva (52%). Se optimizó tratamiento farmacológico cardiovascular en el 82% de los casos. Rehabilitación cardiaca en el 30%, ventilación mecánica no invasiva 41%, modalidad fija 33% y autoajustable 9%, todos con telemetría. Conclusiones: La prevalencia y severidad de la AOS es mayor en presencia de riesgo o enfermedad cardiovascular establecida. Ante la sospecha clínica es factible confirmar el diagnóstico con poligrafía respiratoria domiciliaria por el nivel de precisión y la menor infraestructura requerida. Es necesaria una mayor participación del cardiólogo en el diagnóstico y tratamiento de este trastorno por el riesgo significativo de enfermedad cardiovascular que representa.
Abstract Objective: To determine the clinical-epidemiological characteristics, diagnostic feasibility of home respiratory polygraphy and treatment of patients with suspected obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) at cardiovascular risk. Methods: An observational, cross-sectional, descriptive study was conducted in patients seen in a cardiology outpatient service with suspected OSA, from January 2015 to December 2019. The information was obtained from medical records, and a descriptive statistical analysis was applied to this information. Results: 138 files were reviewed; only 8% of the home respiratory polygraphs were discarded, because they did not meet the required quality standards. It was demonstrated that 89% suffered from OSA, 60% moderate to severe; in men after 50 years of age. The main cardiovascular risk factors was hypertension (89%). The most prevalent heart disease was hypertension (52%). Cardiovascular pharmacological treatment was improved in 82% of the cases. Cardiac rehabilitation in 30%, noninvasive mechanical ventilation 41%, fixed modality 33%, and self-adjustable 9%, all with telemetry. Conclusions: The prevalence and severity of OSA is higher in the presence of risk or established cardiovascular disease. In the presence of clinical suspicion, it is feasible to confirm the diagnosis with home respiratory poligrafy due to the level of precision and the lower infrastructure required. Greater involvement of the cardiologist in the diagnosis and treatment of this disorder is necessary due to the significant risk of cardiovascular disease it represents.
Résumé
El síndrome de apneas obstructivas del sueño (SAOS) en pediatría constituye un trastorno asociado a múltiples consecuencias en el espectro cognitivo y comportamental. El principal factor de riesgo asociado es la hipertrofia amigdalina y las vegetaciones adenoideas. La adenoamigdalectomía es el tratamiento de primera línea. La incidencia del SAOS persistente varía entre un 15 % y un 75 % según las comorbilidades. Este se presenta como un desafío a la hora de tratarlo; requiere un abordaje integral para su diagnóstico y tratamiento adecuado. El objetivo de esta revisión bibliográfica es proponer un abordaje diagnóstico y terapéutico para el SAOS persistente.
In pediatrics, obstructive sleep apnea syndrome (OSAS) is a disorder associated with multiple consequences at the cognitive and behavioral level. The main associated risk factor is the presence of tonsillar hypertrophy and adenoids. An adenotonsillectomy is the first-line treatment. The incidence of persistent OSAS varies from 15% to 75%, depending on comorbidities. This is a challenge in terms of management; it requires a comprehensive approach for an adequate diagnosis and treatment. The objective of this bibliographic review is to propose a diagnostic and therapeutic approach for persistent OSAS.

Clinical data of a child with SIM1 gene mutation-related obesity who visited Beijing Children′s Hospital, Capital Medical University in February 2022 was retrospectively analyzed.This 5-year-and-4-month-old girl was admitted for early onset obesity.She showed obesity at 29 months old, accompanied by severe obstructive sleep apnea syndrome.The patient and her mother had heterozygous variations in the SIM1 gene.Literature has reported a total of 42 patients with obesity caused by SIM1 gene mutations from different families in the world, and nearly 1/3 of patients had clinical manifestations beyond obesity, such as developmental delay, cognitive and behavioral problems, mild dysmorphic appearance, and neuroendocrine abnormalities.The patient in this study was mainly characterized by early onset obesity.At present, 58 SIM1 gene mutations are found to be related to obesity, which are mostly concentrated in the C-terminal domain.The allele frequency of p. T46R and p. D707H has reached 9.5%; therefore, p.T46R and p. D707H are considered hot spot variations, suggesting that SIM1 gene analysis should be improved for patients with early onset obesity.
Résumé
Recognizing upper airway obstruction and stenosis is critical to determine the subsequent treatment options in patients with obstructive sleep apnea(OSA).Drug-induced sleep endoscopy(DISE)is a 3D visual evaluation technology for the anatomical structure of the upper respiratory tract of OSA patients during"sleeping"state after being anesthetized.The dynamic situation of upper respiratory tract obstruction and collapse can be observed safely and quickly through endoscopy,which provides important reference for formulating surgical methods and positive airway pressure(PAP)intervention treatments.With the assistance of polysomnography(PSG),DISE plays an important role in optimizing individualized treatment plans for OSA.The present article introduces the technical operating points of PSG-assisted drug-induced sleep endoscopic positive airway pressure titration.

ObjectiveTo explore the common syndrome elements of cerebral ischemic stroke （CIS） complicated with obstructive sleep apnea-hypopnea syndrome （OSAHS）， reveal the characteristics of traditional Chinese medicine （TCM） syndromes of the disease， clarify the syndrome differentiation and syndrome types， provide evidence for clinical syndrome differentiation， and provide reference for establishing the TCM syndrome type standards of CIS complicated with OSAHS. MethodThe clinical information form of CIS complicated with OSAHS formulated by the research group was used for syndrome survey， and the four-examination information of 300 patients with CIS complicated with OSAHS was collected. The four-examination information of patients was analyzed by latent structure method and comprehensive cluster analysis， and the common syndrome elements of CIS complicated with OSAHS were extracted by combining the TCM basic theory and clinical experience. On this basis， the characteristics of TCM syndromes and the syndrome types in line with reality were summarized. ResultThe top five syndrome elements in patients with CIS and OSAHS are sleep snoring， open mouth breathing， physical obesity， night awakening and dizziness. The top five tongue and pulse manifestations are enlarged tongue， slippery pulse， slippery coating， thick and white coating and purple tongue. The disease locations are the lung， spleen， stomach， kidney， liver and brain. The nature of disease includes deficiency， depression， blood stasis， phlegm， dampness and fire. The clinical syndrome types include the syndrome of stagnation of phlegm and dampness， syndrome of phlegm-dampness blocking the mind， syndrome of spleen deficiency with dampness， syndrome of Yin deficiency leading to fire hyperactivity， syndrome of Qi depression blocking collaterals， syndrome of liver depression and blood stasis， syndrome of Qi deficiency with dampness， and syndrome of Yang deficiency induced water retention. ConclusionIn addition to the common phlegm-， dampness- and blood stasis-related syndromes in patients with CIS and OSAHS， there are also depression- and deficiency-related syndromes. The main etiology and pathogenesis is the disturbance of Qi movement. In clinical practice， attention should be paid to the specific situation of individual patients to differentiate between deficiency and excess， and the treatment should be performed by the method of soothing and reinforcing， or unblocking and clearing， or both.
Résumé
Obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) is a common sleep disordered breathing disorder. As a major global public health problem, untreated OSA can lead to a variety of adverse health outcomes, including various cardiovascular and cerebrovascular diseases, metabolic disorders, and psychiatric disorders such as anxiety and depression. Traditional OSA therapies such as positive airway pressure (PAP), weight loss, oral appliance, upper airway surgery, and postural therapy focus on the anatomical factors of OSA. However, the pathogenesis of OSA is heterogeneous, and non-anatomical factors also play an important role in most patients. Although there is no drug with exact efficacy for the treatment of OSA, with the deepening understanding of the pathophysiological mechanism of OSA, more and more clinical studies are devoted to the study of drug treatment of OSA and its complications, and a series of results have been achieved. The following is a review of the relevant studies on drug treatment of OSA in recent years, hoping to provide literature support and theoretical basis for future research on drug treatment of OSA.
Résumé
Mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) are self-regenerating, rapidly proliferating pluripotent stem cells that depend primarily on their derived pro-angiogenic, inflammatory regulatory, and trophic factors to exert beneficial effects that attenuate deleterious inflammatory responses, reduce vascular damage, and promote tissue repair and regeneration. Obstructive sleep apnea hypoventilation syndrome (OSAHS) is a chronic disorder marked by oropharyngeal collapse during sleep, resulting in transient reduced airflow, large fluctuations in intrathoracic pressure, and intermittent hypoxia and hypercapnia. OSAHS subsequently cytokine-mediated inflammatory cascades, oxidative stress, and ischemia, recruit MSCs from inflamed and damaged tissues through MSCs-derived of anti-inflammatory and pro-angiogenic factor activity, reduce hypoxia, suppress inflammation, promote regeneration, and prevent fibrosis in OSAHS-injured tissues. In this paper, we will describe the pathogenesis of inflammation, oxidative stress, fibrosis and ischemia from the perspective of OSAHS, highlighting the current research progress on MSCs-dependent regulation of OSAHS-related pathology.
Résumé
@#Pediatric malocclusion is common in dentistry. Some children with malocclusion combined with obstructive sleep apnea-hypopnea syndrome (OSAHS) often fail to receive appropriate treatment due to a lack of multidisciplinary diagnosis and treatment. It can cause abnormal ventilation during sleep, affecting the central nervous system and cardiovascular development and even causing neurological and behavioral problems. Pediatric OSAHS is caused by the narrowing of the upper respiratory tract, characterized by specific facial bone characteristics and neuromuscular factors and correlated with malocclusion. Due to its diverse clinical manifestations and etiology, the diagnosis and treatment of pediatric OSAHS require an interdisciplinary, personalized, and specialized approach. Questionnaires and physical examinations can be used for preliminary screening. Moreover, children's stomatology and otorhinolaryngology examinations are the basis for disease diagnosis. Polysomnography (PSG) is currently the direct diagnostic method. There are various treatment methods for OSAHS in children, and for OSAHS caused by adenoid tonsil hypertrophy, adenoidectomy and tonsillectomy are the main treatments. Othodontic treatment including mandibular advancement and rapid maxillary expansion et al is also effective for OSAHS in children with malocclusion. Currently, there is limited research on the correlation between childhood malocclusion and OSAHS, and multidisciplinary combination therapy may improve the cure rate, but there is a lack of sufficient evidence. In the future, the pathogenesis of OSAHS should be further elucidated, and research on multidisciplinary combination therapy should be promoted to achieve early intervention and treatment for potential and existing patients.
Résumé
Alzheimer's disease(AD)is the most common cognitive disorder in the elderly and manifests primarily as progressive cognitive function decline, neuropsychiatric symptoms and multiple functional impairments.Obstructive sleep apnea(OSA)is a common type of respiratory disorder.Studies have found that AD and OSA are connected in many ways, including the risk of developing these diseases, biomarkers and neuroimaging features.These connections may result from a variety of mechanisms, such as neuropathological protein deposition, exacerbated immune-mediated inflammation, oxidative stress abnormalities, impaired mitochondrial function, and disturbed neurotransmitter systems, among others.This article reviewed the relationship between AD and OSA, the mechanisms linking them and their treatment.
Résumé
This paper reports the maternal and fetal outcomes of three twin pregnancies with chronic hypertension and obstructive sleep apnea-hypopnea syndrome (OSAHS) who were treated with continuous positive airway pressure (CPAP). All three women with twin pregnancies were diagnosed with chronic hypertension. Furthermore, symptoms such as snoring and apnea assisted the diagnosis of OSAHS through polysomnography monitoring. Case 1 was treated with CPAP at 28 gestational weeks. The blood pressure increased gradually after the first month of CPAP treatment, with an elevated urine protein concentration. At 34 gestational weeks, the pregnant woman underwent a cesarean section due to the development of hemolysis, elevated liver enzymes, and low platelet syndrome. Case 2 was treated with CPAP at 11 gestational weeks, with stable blood pressure throughout the pregnancy, and was delivered through cesarean section at 37 weeks of pregnancy. Case 3 started CPAP at 13 gestational weeks for four months, and increased blood pressure and urine protein were observed. Medication brought the blood pressure down, and urine protein became negative. At 32 gestational weeks, a cesarean section was performed because of premature rupture of the membrane. Her CPAP treatment continued till delivery with good maternal and infant outcomes. The treatment outcomes of the three cases suggest that CPAP may prolong the time of blood pressure rise among twin pregnancies where chronic hypertension and OSAHS coexist, which potentially reduces the occurrence of adverse maternal and infant outcomes.

Contexte et objectifs : L'accès aux tests neurophysiologiques pour le diagnostic des Troubles du Sommeil (TS) est très limité dans les pays d'Afrique subsaharienne. La présente étude avait pour objectif de déterminer les caractéristiques épidémiologiques, cliniques et neurophysiologiques des (TS) dans un groupe de jeunes adultes. Méthodes : Il s'est agi d'une étude descriptive d'une série de cas, réalisée au centre de Médecine du sommeil et des maladies respiratoires de l'hôpital de la Croix-Rousse de Lyon du 1er janvier au 31 mars 2019. Les patients hospitalisés pendant cette période pour l'exploration d'un (TS) ont été sélectionnés. Etaient éligibles ceux dont l'âge était compris entre 18 et 35 ans, des deux sexes, ayant renseigné un questionnaire et ayant bénéficié au minimum d'une polysomnographie (PSG). Résultats : Quatre-vingt-onze patients étaient examinés. Les femmes étaient les plus affectées (59,3 %). Leur âge moyen était de 26,6 ± 5 ans. La PSG a incriminé le Syndrome d'Apnée Hypopnée Obstructive du sommeil (SAHOS) comme étiologie principale (66 %). Pour les patients sans SAHOS, 38,7 % avaient une PSG normale et la PSG avec d'autres tests de sommeil ont objectivé, pour le reste (61,3 %), d'autres types de (TS). La dépression (50,7 %) et la fatigue chronique (84,6 %) étaient très fréquentes. L'indice d'efficacité du sommeil était faible pour 70 % des patients avec SAHOS. Il y avait un déséquilibre de la durée des stades du sommeil, augmentée pour le sommeil lent léger et diminuée pour le sommeil lent profond dans la population avec SAHOS, tandis que la durée du sommeil paradoxal chez ceux sans SAHOS était augmentée. Conclusion Le SAHOS est fréquent dans cette formation hospitalière, avec des répercussions significatives à type de dépression et de fatigue chronique. Il est important que des mesures rendant accessible l'usage des tests d'exploration du sommeil particulièrement en Afrique au sud du Sahara, soient mises en place pour diagnostiquer ces troubles
Context and objective. Access to neurophysiological tests for diagnostic of sleep disorders (SD) is very limited in Sub-Saharan Africa countries. The objective was to determine the epidemiological, clinical and neurophysiological characteristics of SD in a young adult group. Methods. This was a descriptive serial cases study carried out at the Sleep Medicine and Respiratory Diseases Center of the CroixRousse hospital of Lyon between January 1st and March 31th, 2019. Patients hospitalized during this period with tests for SD were selected. Eligible were those aged between 18 and 35 years, both sexes, who completed a questionnaire and who received at least a polysomnography (PSG). Results. Ninety-one patients were involved. Women remained the most affected (59.3%). Mean age was 26.6±5 years. PSG incriminated obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) syndrome as the primary etiology (66%). For patients without OSA, 38.7% had normal PSG. For the remaining 61.3% of patients, other types of SD were found using PSG with various sleep tests. Depression (50.7%) was an important comorbidity, and chronic fatigue (84.6%) was the most frequent complaint. Sleep efficiency index was low for 70% of sleep apnea patients. There was an imbalance in the duration of sleep stages, with an increase in light slow-wave sleep in the OSA population and a decrease in their deep slow-wave sleep, while REM sleep duration in patients without OSA was increased. Conclusion: OSA was the primary etiology in our study, with significant repercussions like depression and chronic fatigue. Public health measures such as increasing access to the use of sleep exploration tests, especially in subSaharan Africa, should be put in place for the diagnosis of these sleep disorders and their consequences

Abstract Background: Patients diagnosed with Obstructive Sleep Apnea (OSA) syndrome have a tendency towards hypoventilation, hypoxia, and hypercarbia in the perioperative period. This study hypothesized that the Oxygen Reserve Index (ORi) could predict possible hypoxia and determine difficult airways in patients at risk for OSA, as determined by the STOP-Bang questionnaire. Methods: This prospective study included adult patients undergoing elective surgery under general anesthesia with endotracheal intubation, divided into two groups: low risk (0-2 points) and high risk (3-8 points) based on their STOP-Bang questionnaire results. The primary outcome measure was the highest ORi value reached during preoxygenation and the time to reach this value. Data were recorded at four time points: before preoxygenation (T1), end of preoxygenation (T2), end of mask ventilation (T3), and end of intubation (T4), as well as partial oxygen pressure values in T1, T2, and T4. The secondary outcome measures were the grading scale for mask ventilation, Cormack-Lehane score, tonsil dimensions, use of a stylet, and application of the burp maneuver during intubation. Results: In the high-risk group, preoperative peripheral oxygen saturation values, the highest ORi value reached in preoxygenation, and ORi values at T3 and T4 times were lower, and the time to reach the highest ORi value was longer (p < 0.05). Conclusion: Using ORi in patients with OSA may be useful in evaluating oxygenation, and since difficult airway is more common, ORi monitoring will better manage possible hypoxic conditions.

ABSTRACT BACKGROUND: Neck circumference (NC) is a useful anthropometric measure for predicting obstructive sleep apnea (OSA). Ethnicity and sex also influence obesity phenotypes. NC cut-offs for defining OSA have not been established for the Latin American population. OBJECTIVES: To evaluate NC, waist circumference (WC), and body mass index (BMI) as predictors of OSA in the Colombian population and to determine optimal cut-off points. DESIGN AND SETTING: Diagnostic tests were conducted at the Javeriana University, Bogota. METHODS: Adults from three cities in Colombia were included. NC, WC, and BMI were measured, and a polysomnogram provided the reference standard. The discrimination capacity and best cut-off points for diagnosing OSA were calculated. RESULTS: 964 patients were included (57.7% men; median age, 58 years) and 43.4% had OSA. The discrimination capacity of NC was similar for men and women (area under curve, AUC 0.63 versus 0.66, P = 0.39) but better for women under 60 years old (AUC 0.69 versus 0.57, P < 0.05). WC had better discrimination capacity for women (AUC 0.69 versus 0.57, P < 0.001). There were no significant differences in BMI. Optimal NC cut-off points were 36.5 cm for women (sensitivity [S]: 71.7%, specificity [E]: 55.3%) and 41 cm for men (S: 56%, E: 62%); and for WC, 97 cm for women (S: 65%, E: 69%) and 99 cm for men (S: 53%, E: 58%). CONCLUSIONS: NC and WC have moderate discrimination capacities for diagnosing OSA. The cut-off values suggest differences between Latin- and North American as well as Asian populations.
Résumé
RESUMO Objetivo Investigar as estruturas e funções orofaríngeas de uma população pediátrica com Síndrome de Down (SD) e apneia obstrutiva do sono (AOS) e correlacionar com o índice de apneia/hipopneia (IAH) e questionários do sono. Método 12 Crianças com SD e AOS, entre 4 e 12 anos, foram submetidas à polissonografia (PSG); questionários do sono, Pediatric Sleep Questionnaire (PSQ) e Obstructive Sleep Apnea-18 (OSA-18); e triagem fonoaudiológica por meio do Short Evaluation of Orofacial Myofunctional Protocol (ShOM). Resultados Verificou-se uma correlação positiva entre pontuações mais elevadas no ShOM e o índice de apneia hipopneia (IAH) e entre o ShOM e número de hipopneias. As alterações miofuncionais orofaciais observadas no grupo estudado foram: respiração oral, alteração no tônus e competência labial, na postura de língua em repouso e na deglutição e alteração oclusal. Verificou-se também, um risco aumentado para AOS conforme os questionários do sono, bem como presença de obesidade e sobrepeso, mas sem correlação com a gravidade da AOS. Conclusão Todas as crianças apresentaram alterações miofuncionais orofaciais, sendo que escores mais altos no ShOM, ou seja, um maior comprometimento miofuncional orofacial, estavam associados à maior gravidade de AOS, sugerindo que a avaliação miofuncional orofacial dentro de uma abordagem multidisciplinar pode auxiliar na identificação de fatores de risco para AOS em crianças com SD.
ABSTRACT Purpose To investigate oropharyngeal structures and functions in a pediatric population with Down Syndrome (DS) and obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) and to correlate with the apnea/hypopnea index (AHI) and sleep questionnaires. Methods 12 Children with DS and OSA, between the age of 4 and 12 years old, underwent polysomnography (PSG); sleep questionnaires, Pediatric Sleep Questionnaire (PSQ) and Obstructive Sleep Apnea-18 (OSA-18); and speech-language evaluation using the Short Evaluation of Orofacial Myofunctional Protocol (ShOM). Results There was a positive correlation between ShoM higher scores and the apnea-hypopnea index (AHI) and between ShoM and the number of hypopneas. The orofacial myofunctional alterations observed in the studied group were: oral breathing, alteration in lip tonus and competence, tongue posture at rest and in swallowing, and occlusal alteration. There was also an increased risk for OSA according to the sleep questionnaires, as well as the presence of obesity and overweight, but without correlation with the severity of OSA. Conclusion All DS children show alterations in orofacial characteristics, higher scores being associated to severe OSA. Orofacial myofunctional evaluation may help to identify different phenotypes in Down syndrome children with Obstructive sleep Apnea, enhancing the need for a multidisciplinary approach.
