Journal ArticleDOI
Incidence of sleep apnea in a presumably healthy working population: a significant relationship with excessive daytime sleepiness.
TL;DR: A significant association was found between the complaint of excessive daytime sleepiness and the incidence of sleep apnea, and workers with more than 10 apneas per hour of sleep complained significantly more about loud snoring, hypermotility in sleep, and frequent headaches.
Journal ArticleDOI
All-cause mortality in males with sleep apnoea syndrome: declining mortality rates with age
TL;DR: Moderate and severe levels of sleep apnoea are moderately associated with an increased risk of all-cause mortality, in comparison with the general population, particularly in males aged <50 yrs, although the lack of information about possible confounders and treatment effects should be taken into consideration.
Journal ArticleDOI
A Crossover Study Comparing the Efficacy of Continuous Positive Airway Pressure With Anterior Mandibular Positioning Devices on Patients With Obstructive Sleep Apnea
TL;DR: The AMP device achieved substantial success in most cases, but was less effective than CPAP, especially for the more severe cases.
Journal ArticleDOI
Interindividual Heterogeneity in the Hypoxic Regulation of VEGF Significance for the Development of the Coronary Artery Collateral Circulation
Aylit Schultz,Lena Lavie,Irit Hochberg,Rafael Beyar,Tzachi Stone,Karl Skorecki,Peretz Lavie,Ariel Roguin,Andrew P. Levy +8 more
TL;DR: Evidence is provided in support of the hypothesis that the ability to respond to progressive coronary artery stenosis is strongly associated with the able to induce VEGF in response to hypoxia, and may help to explain the variable angiogenic responses seen in other conditions such as diabetic retinopathy and solid tumors.
Journal ArticleDOI
Nocturnal ischemic events in patients with obstructive sleep apnea syndrome and ischemic heart disease: effects of continuous positive air pressure treatment.
TL;DR: Exacerbation of ischemic events during sleep in OSAS may be explained by the combination of increased myocardial oxygen consumption as indicated by increased DP values and decreased oxygen supply due to oxygen desaturation with peak hemodynamic changes during the rebreathing phase of the obstructive apnea.
