Journal ArticleDOI
Effect of sleep apnea on cognition and mood.
Baruch El-Ad,Peretz Lavie +1 more
TL;DR: Optimal treatment of OSAS with continuous positive airway pressure may reverse the cognitive and affective dysfunction, however, in some patients a residual impairment persists; this persistent deficit raises the possibility of a remaining subtle structural brain damage.
Journal ArticleDOI
Unexpected survival advantage in elderly people with moderate sleep apnoea.
Peretz Lavie,Lena Lavie +1 more
TL;DR: The survival advantage of elderly people with moderate sleep apnoea, combined with recent findings on the potential cardioprotective effects of chronic intermittent hypoxia, raise the possibility that apnoesas during sleep may activate adaptive pathways in the elderly.
Journal ArticleDOI
Phenotypic and Functional Characterization of Blood γδ T Cells in Sleep Apnea
TL;DR: The phenotype, cytokine profile, adhesion properties, and cytotoxicity of T cells in patients with OSA and control subjects are characterized and cytoxia-induced lymphocyte dysfunction may be implicated in endothelial cell damage in obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) syndrome.
Journal ArticleDOI
Long-term sleep disturbances in adolescents after minor head injury.
TL;DR: It is demonstrated that 3 years after MHI without any discernible clinical sequel, adolescents still complain of sleep disturbances that could be confirmed by both polysomnographic and actigraphic monitoring.
Journal ArticleDOI
Ischemic preconditioning as a possible explanation for the age decline relative mortality in sleep apnea
Lena Lavie,Peretz Lavie +1 more
TL;DR: It is hypothesized that the age decline mortality risk in sleep apnea can be explained by cardiovascular and cerebrovascular protection conferred by ischemic preconditioning resulting from the nocturnal cycles of hypoxia-reoxygenation.
