TL;DR: Age, body mass index and the severity of disease in obstructive sleep apnea patients are not effective determinants of gastroesophageal reflux and sleep macroorganisation has no impact on the occurrence of GER in OSAS.
Abstract: A number of recent studies have suggested that apnea and/or hypopnea episodes may be in a causal relationship with nocturnal gastroesophageal reflux (GER) episodes in obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) patients. In this study, we addressed the possible factors that may affect the occurrence of reflux events in OSA patients. For this reason, we investigated respiratory and sleep parameters in OSA patients with or without nocturnal GER episodes. Nineteen patients who were referred to the sleep laboratory for suspected sleep apnea were included in the study. All subjects underwent polysomnographic evaluation simultaneously with distal and proximal esophageal pH monitoring. During the recording period, a total of 134 reflux events, 134 from distal probes and none from proximal probes, were recorded. We divided patients into two groups: (1) nocturnal GER-positive patients (n=8; age: 41.9±11.9) and (2) nocturnal GER-negative patients (n=11; age: 45.4±3.3). We compared demographic, respiratory and sleep parameters between the two groups. Then we analysed the time relation between GER episodes and obstructive respiratory events. The two groups were matched by age and body mass index. Sleep and respiratory parameters were not different between the two groups. In conclusion, we suggested that age, body mass index and the severity of disease in obstructive sleep apnea patients are not effective determinants of gastroesophageal reflux. There is no sufficient evidence to accept arousals and obstructive apneas as primary causes of gastroesophageal reflux and vice versa. And finally, sleep macroorganisation has no impact on the occurrence of GER in OSAS.

TL;DR: In this paper, the performance of three commercial polymeric ultrafiltration (UF) membranes during clarification of raw apple juice, comparatively, was evaluated, and the influence of membrane pore size, roughness, and hydrophobicity on flux profile and fouling was investigated.
Abstract: The aim of this study was to evaluate the performance of three different commercial polymeric ultrafiltration (UF) membranes during clarification of raw apple juice, comparatively. The influence of membrane pore size, roughness, and hydrophobicity on flux profile and fouling was investigated. The initial flux was simultaneously decreased at the beginning of the process, and quite steady flux was obtained in the membranes with rougher surface and more hydrophobic nature. As the pore size and hydrophobicity increased, the reversible fouling became the major resistance, while cake formation was more prominent for the membranes with narrower pore size. The overall quality results revealed that the main quality characteristics of the raw juice can be better retained by using the membranes that have higher resistance to fouling.

TL;DR: Corneal infiltration gradually decreased, presumably because of the systemic, topical, and subconjunctival steroids, and late complications observed in this case included a substantial decrease in cornea endothelial cell density, a corneal scar, and anterior capsular opacity.
