Obstructive sleep apnoea syndrome (OSAS) might be a cause of heart failure. The present study aimed to assess left ventricular mass and myocardial performance index (MPI) in OSAS patients. A total of 67 subjects without any cardiac or pulmonary disease, referred for evaluation of OSAS, had overnight polysomnography and echocardiography. According to apnoea-hypopnoea index (AHI), subjects were classified into three groups: mild OSAS (AHI: 5-14; n = 16), moderate OSAS (AHI: 15-29; n = 18), and severe OSAS (AHI: > or = 30; n = 33). Thickness of interventricular septum (IVS) and posterior wall (LVPW) were measured by M-mode, along with left ventricular mass (LVM) and LVM index (LVMI). Left ventricular MPI was calculated as (isovolumic contraction time+isovolumic relaxation time)/aortic ejection time by D?ppler echocardiography. There were no differences in age or body mass index among the groups, but blood pressures were higher in severe OSAS compared with moderate and mild OSAS. In severe OSAS, thickness of IVS (11.2+/-1.1 mm), LVPW (11.4+/-0.9 mm), LVM (298.8+/-83.1 g) and LVMI (144.7+/-39.8 g x m(-2)) were higher than in moderate OSAS (10.9+/-1.3 mm; 10.8+/-0.9 mm; 287.3+/-74.6 g; 126.5+/-41.2 g x m(-2), respectively) and mild OSAS (9.9+/-0.9 mm; 9.8+/-0.8 mm; 225.6+/-84.3 g; 100.5+/-42.3 g x m(-2), respectively). In severe OSAS, MPI (0.64+/-0.14) was significantly higher than in mild OSAS (0.50+/-0.09), but not significantly higher than moderate OSAS (0.60+/-0.10). In conclusion, severe and moderate obstructive sleep apnoea syndrome patients had higher left ventricular mass and left ventricular mass index, and also left ventricular global dysfunction. 相似文献

BACKGROUND: Obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) is characterized by repetitive upper airway obstructions during sleep, and it might cause cardiovascular complications such as heart failure, arrhythmias, myocardial infarction, systemic and pulmonary hypertension. OBJECTIVES: To determine right ventricular diameters and myocardial performance index (MPI) reflecting ventricular global function in uncomplicated OSA patients. METHODS: 49 subjects without hypertension, diabetes mellitus, or any cardiac or pulmonary disease referred for evaluation of OSA had overnight polysomnography and complete echocardiographic assessment. According to the apnea-hypopnea index (AHI), subjects were divided into three groups: group 1: control subjects (AHI <5, n = 20), group 2: patients with mild OSA (AHI: 5-14, n = 11), and group 3: moderate-severe OSA (AHI > or = 15, n = 18). Right ventricular free wall diameter was measured by M mode, and right ventricular MPI was calculated as (isovolumic contraction time + isovolumic relaxation time)/pulmonary ejection time. RESULTS: There were no differences of age, body mass index, heart rates, systolic and diastolic blood pressures among the groups (p > 0.05). Right ventricular end-diastolic and end-systolic diameters were not statistically different between the groups, and were within normal limits. Also, right ventricular free wall diameter was not significantly different between the groups of control, mild OSA and moderate-severe OSA (6.7 +/- 0.9, 6.9 +/- 1.0, 7.1 +/- 1.1 mm, p > 0.05). Right ventricular diastolic dysfunction was shown only in group 3 patients. Right ventricular MPI was statistically higher in group 3 (0.62 +/- 0.18) than in group 2 patients (0.50 +/- 0.10), and group 1 patients (0.48 +/- 0.08, p < 0.001). CONCLUSIONS: It was suggested that patients with moderate-severe OSA had a right ventricular global dysfunction, in addition to the presence of a diastolic dysfunction. 相似文献

BACKGROUND: Obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) may predispose patients to congestive heart failure (CHF), suggesting a deleterious effect of OSA on myocardial contractility. METHODS: A cross-sectional study of 85 subjects with suspected OSA who had undergone their first overnight polysomnogram, accompanied by an echocardiographic study. Patients were divided according to the apnea-hypopnea index as follows: < 5 (control subjects); 5 to 14 (mild OSA); and >or= 15 (moderate-to-severe OSA). Right and left ventricular function was evaluated using the myocardial performance index (MPI) and other echocardiographic parameters. For the right ventricle analyses, we excluded patients with a Doppler pulmonary systolic pressure of >or= 45 mm Hg, while for the left ventricle we excluded patients with an ejection fraction of 相似文献

Obstructive apneas produce high negative intrathoracic pressure that imposes an afterload burden on the left ventricle. Such episodes might produce structural changes in the left ventricle over time. Doppler echocardiograms were obtained within 2 months of attended polysomnography. Patients were grouped according to apnea-hypopnea index (AHI): mild/no obstructive sleep apnea (OSA; AHI <15) and moderate/severe OSA (AHI ≥15). Mitral valve tenting height and area, left ventricular (LV) long and short axes, and LV end-diastolic volume were measured in addition to tissue Doppler parameters. Comparisons of measurements at baseline and follow-up between and within groups were obtained; correlations between absolute changes (Δ) in echocardiographic parameters were also performed. After a mean follow-up of 240 days mitral valve tenting height increased significantly (1.17 ± 0.12 to 1.28 ± 0.17 cm, p = 0.001) in moderate/severe OSA as did tenting area (2.30 ± 0.41 to 2.66 ± 0.60 cm(2), p = 0.0002); Δtenting height correlated with ΔLV end-diastolic volume (rho 0.43, p = 0.01) and Δtenting area (rho 0.35, p = 0.04). In patients with mild/no OSA there was no significant change in tenting height; there was a borderline significant increase in tenting area (2.20 ± 0.44 to 2.31 ± 0.43 cm(2), p = 0.05). Septal tissue Doppler early diastolic wave decreased (8.04 ± 2.49 to 7.10 ± 1.83 cm/s, p = 0.005) in subjects with moderate/severe OSA but not in in those with mild/no OSA. In conclusion, in patients with moderate/severe OSA, mitral valve tenting height and tenting area increase significantly over time. This appears to be related, at least in part, to changes in LV geometry. 相似文献

The aim of this study was to investigate the impact of obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) on left ventricular (LV) functional changes by using tissue Doppler imaging-derived indexes in patients with OSA. We studied 62 patients classified into 3 groups, namely 18 with mild to moderate OSA, 24 with severe OSA, and 20 control subjects without OSA according to the apnea-hypopnea index (AHI) on complete overnight polysomnogram. All underwent conventional and tissue Doppler echocardiographies. Only early diastolic velocity (Ea; -6.2 +/- 0.3 vs -7.1 +/- 0.3 vs -7.3 +/- 0.3 cm/s, respectively, for the 3 groups, p = 0.023) was significantly decreased in the severe OSA group. Other echocardiographic parameters of diastolic function such as isovolumic relaxation time, deceleration time, mitral inflow early/late wave velocity ratio, and pulmonary vein systolic/diastolic pulmonary vein velocity ratio were comparable among the 3 groups. AHI was correlated only with tissue Doppler imaging-derived indexes of LV diastolic function (Ea r = -0.382, p = 0.002; Ea/late diastolic velocity r = -0.329, p = 0.009), but not with conventional Doppler indexes. AHI remained a significant predictor of Ea after adjusting for age, heart rate, fasting glucose level, blood pressure, body mass index, and LV mass index in a multiple stepwise linear regression model (p = 0.007). In conclusion, only patients with severe OSA showed a greater impairment of LV diastolic function. Of all echocardiographic parameters of diastolic dysfunction investigated, only Ea was identified as the best index to demonstrate an association between LV diastolic dysfunction and severity of OSA independently of body mass index, diabetes mellitus, and hypertension. 相似文献

We wished to determine if obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) is associated with increased left ventricular mass (LVM) and impaired left ventricular diastolic function (LVDF) independently of coexisting obesity, hypertension (HTN), and diabetes mellitus (DM). Patients without primary cardiac disease, referred for evaluation of OSA (n = 533), had overnight polysomnography and Doppler echocardiography while awake. Patients were divided, according to the apnea-hypopnea index (AHI), into an OSA group (AHI > or = 5/h, n = 353) and a non-OSA group (AHI < 5/h, n = 180). In men, LVM was greater in the OSA group (98.9 +/- 25.6 versus 92.3 +/- 22.5 g/m, p = 0.023) despite exclusion of those with HTN and DM. A similar trend was noted in women. Regression analysis revealed that LVM was correlated with body mass index (BMI) (beta = 0.480, p < 0.0005), age (beta = 0.16, p = 0.001), and the presence of HTN (beta = 0.137, p = 0.003) in men and with BMI (beta = 0.501, p < 0.0005) in women, but not with AHI or oxygen saturation during sleep. The ratio of peak early filling velocity to peak late filling velocity (E/A), an index of LVDF, was similar in both groups (1.28 +/- 0.32 versus 1.34 +/- 0.31, p = 0.058); it was correlated with age (beta = -0.474, p < 0.0005), but not with AHI or oxygen saturation during sleep. We conclude that OSA is not associated with increased LVM or impaired LVDF independently of obesity, HTN, or advancing age. 相似文献

Purpose
The purpose of this study was to evaluate associations between obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) severity and self-reported sleepiness and daytime functioning in patients considering bariatric surgery for treatment of obesity.Methods
Using a retrospective cohort design, we identified 342 patients who had sleep evaluations prior to bariatric surgery. Our final sample included 269 patients (78.6 % of the original cohort, 239 females; mean age?=?42.0?±?9.5 years; body mass index?=?50.2?±?7.7 kg/m2) who had overnight polysomnography and completed the Epworth Sleepiness Scale (ESS) and the Functional Outcomes of Sleep Questionnaire (FOSQ). Patients' OSA was classified as none/mild (apnea–hypopnea index (AHI)?<?15, n?=?112), moderate (15?≤?AHI?<?30, n?=?77), or severe (AHI?≥?30, n?=?80). We calculated the proportion of unique variance (PUV) for the five FOSQ subscales. ANOVA was used to determine if ESS and FOSQ were associated with OSA severity. Unpaired t tests compared ESS and FOSQ scores in our sample with published data.Results
The average AHI was 29.5?±?31.5 events per hour (range?=?0–175.8). The mean ESS score was 6.3?±?4.8, and the mean global FOSQ score was 100.3?±?18.2. PUVs for FOSQ subscales showed moderate-to-high unique contributions to FOSQ variance. ESS and global FOSQ score did not differ by AHI group. Only the FOSQ vigilance subscale differed by OSA severity with the severe group reporting more impairment than the moderate and none/mild groups. Our sample reported less sleepiness and daytime impairment than previously reported means in patients and controls.Conclusions
Subjective sleepiness and functional impairment were not associated significantly with OSA severity in our sample of patients considering surgery for obesity. Further research is needed to understand individual differences in sleepiness in patients with OSA. If bariatric patients underreport symptoms, self-report measures are not an adequate substitute for objective assessment and clinical judgment when evaluating bariatric patients for OSA. Patients with severe obesity need evaluation for OSA even in the absence of subjective complaints. 相似文献8.

Introduction
Obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) has been associated with an elevated rate of cardiovascular mortality. However, this issue has not been investigated in patients with elevated proneness to cardiovascular diseases. Our hypothesis was that OSA would have an especially adverse effect on the risk of cardiovascular mortality in Finnish individuals exhibiting elevated proneness for coronary heart diseases.Methods
Ambulatory polygraphic recordings from 405 men having suspected OSA were retrospectively analyzed. The patients were categorized regarding sleep disordered breathing into a normal group (apnea hypopnea index (AHI)?<?5, n?=?104), mild OSA group (5?≤?AHI?<?15, n?=?100), and moderate to severe OSA group (AHI?≥?15, n?=?201). In addition, basic anthropometric and health data were collected. In patients who died during the follow-up period (at least 12 years and 10 months), the primary and secondary causes of death were recorded.Results
After adjustment for age, BMI, and smoking, the patients with moderate to severe OSA suffered significantly (p?<?0.05) higher mortality (hazard ratio 3.13) than their counterparts with normal recordings. The overall mortality in the moderate to severe OSA group was 26.4 %, while in the normal group it was 9.7 %. Hazard ratio for cardiovascular mortality was 4.04 in the moderate to severe OSA and 1.87 in the mild OSA group.Conclusions
OSA seems to have an especially adverse effect on the cardiovascular mortality of patients with an elevated genetic susceptibility to coronary heart diseases. When considering that all our patients had possibility of continuous positive airway pressure treatment and our reference group consisted of patients suffering from daytime somnolence, the hazard ratio of 4.04 for cardiovascular mortality in patients with moderate to severe disease is disturbingly high. 相似文献9.

The obstructive sleep apnea syndrome (OSAS) is associated with cardiovascular abnormalities including left ventricular hypertrophy,
left ventricular diastolic dysfunction, and endothelial dysfunction. The present study evaluated whether N-terminal pro-B-type
natriuretic peptide (NT-proBNP) and peak oxygen consumption (peak VO2), both integral markers of cardiovascular function, are related to OSAS severity. In addition, we tested whether NT-proBNP
levels depend on body composition in OSAS patients, similar to what has been reported in patients without OSAS. Eighty-nine
patients with untreated OSAS underwent NT-proBNP measurement, dual X-ray absorptiometry, and cardiopulmonary exercise testing.
In a representative subgroup (n = 32), transthoracic echocardiography was performed. The severity of OSAS was classified based on apnea–hypopnea index (AHI)
values as mild (AHI 5–15 h−1), moderate (AHI 15–30 h−1), and severe (AHI >30 h−1). OSAS was mild in 19 (21%), moderate in 21 (24%), and severe in 49 (55%) patients. NT-proBNP levels did not differ among
patients with mild [30 (10–57)], moderate [37 (14–55)], and severe [24 (13–49) pg/ml; p = 0.8] OSAS and were not related to body mass index (r = 0.07; p = 0.5), percent lean body mass (r = −0.17; p = 0.1), and percent fat mass (r = 0.18; p = 0.1). Percent predicted peak VO2 was on average normal and did not differ among patients with mild (115 ± 26), moderate (112 ± 23), and severe OSAS (106 ± 29%;
p = 0.4). Body weight-indexed peak VO2 did not differ among patients with mild (31.9 ± 10.3), moderate (32.1 ± 7.9), and severe OSAS (30.0 ± 9.9 ml kg−1 min−1; p = 0.6) either. Lower NT-proBNP (β = −0.2; p = 0.02) was independently but weakly associated with higher body weight-indexed peak VO2. In the echocardiography subgroup, NT-proBNP was not significantly related to left ventricular mass index (r = 0.26; p = 0.2). In conclusion, NT-proBNP and peak VO2 are not related to OSAS severity, and NT-proBNP poorly reflects left ventricular hypertrophy in OSAS. The lack of a relationship
between NT-proBNP and OSAS severity is not due to a significant influence of body composition on NT-proBNP. There is an association
between higher NT-proBNP and lower peak VO2, indicating that NT-proBNP is a marker of cardiorespiratory fitness in patients with OSAS. However, the association is too
weak to be clinically useful. 相似文献

Effect of oral appliance therapy on blood pressure in Japanese patients with obstructive sleep apnea
Hiromitsu Sekizuka Naohiko Osada Yoshihiro J. Akashi 《Clinical and experimental hypertension (New York, N.Y. : 1993)》2016,38(4):404-408
Objective: Obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) treatment in patients with OSA and hypertension reduces blood pressure (BP). Oral appliance (OA) therapy is nowadays prescribed for patients with mild to moderate OSA. This study aimed to clarify the effect of OA therapy on BP reduction in Japanese patients with mild to moderate OSA. Methods: Polysomnography was employed to detect sleep-disordered breathing. Totally, 237 patients without cardiac and/or cerebrovascular diseases and those with apnea-hypopnea index (AHI) ≥ 5/h–< 30/h were enrolled. Office BP change after receiving 8–12 weeks of OA therapy was assessed and the factors related to the degree of BP reduction were analyzed. Results: The study patients consisted of 188 men and 49 women, the mean age was 54.7 ± 13.2 years old, and the body mass index (BMI) was 24.6 ± 3.4 kg/m2. The antihypertensive effect of OA therapy resulted in systolic BP (SBP) ?2.4 ± 14.8 (p = 0.078) and diastolic BP (DBP) ?2.0 ± 11.7 mm Hg (p = 0.045) in all patients. SBP before OA therapy played a significant role in the degree of SBP reduction (β = ?0.597, p < 0.001), whereas DBP before OA therapy was a significant factor of the degree of DBP reduction (β = ?0.522, p < 0.001). Conclusion: A certain time period of OA therapy effected BP reduction in mild to moderate OSA patients without cardiac and/or cerebrovascular diseases. Its antihypertensive effect was greater in OSA patients whose BP was higher before receiving OA therapy. 相似文献

Purpose
The underlying mechanisms of the association between obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) and atrial fibrillation (AF) remained unclear. We investigated P wave parameters as indicators of atrial conduction status among OSA patients.Methods
We studied 42 untreated OSA patients, categorized into mild (6), moderate (18), and severe (18) OSA based on the apnea/hypopnea index (AHI) and 18 healthy controls. Twenty-four-hour Holter electrocardiography was applied to measure P wave parameters including P wave duration and P wave dispersion; difference between the maximum (P-max) and minimum (P-min) measured P wave duration.Results
Mean P wave duration ranged from 110.2?±?9.3 ms in mild OSA patients to 121.1?±?15.4 ms in severe OSA patients and was 113.4?±?10.0 ms in controls with no significant difference among the groups, P?=?0.281. P wave dispersion and P-max were significantly longer in those with moderate OSA (68.0?±?9.3 and 154.2?±?9.3 ms) and those with severe OSA (71.6?±?13.7 and 157.2?±?13.3 ms) than controls (52.6?±?15.3 and 142.1?±?15.4 ms), P?0.05. AHI was significantly correlated with P-max (r?=?0.407, P?=?0.012) and P wave dispersion (r?=?0.431, P?=?0.008). With linear regression analysis controlling for age, gender, and BMI, the AHI was independently associated with P wave dispersion (β?=?0.482, P?=?0.002).Conclusions
Using Holter monitoring for measurement of P wave parameters, this study showed an association of OSA with prolonged P-max and P wave dispersion. These results indicate that patients with OSA have disturbances in atrial conduction associated with OSA severity. Repeating this study in a larger sample of patients is warranted. 相似文献12.

Increased prevalence of cardiac arrhythmias has been reported in patients with severe obstructive sleep apnea (OSA), but this may not be generalizable to patients from the general population with a milder form of the condition. The aim of this study was to assess the association between cardiac arrhythmias and OSA of mainly mild and moderate severity. In total, 486 subjects (mean age 49 years, 55% men) recruited from a population-based study in Norway underwent polysomnography for OSA assessment and Holter recordings for arrhythmia assessment. Of these, 271 patients were diagnosed with OSA (apnea-hypopnea index [AHI] ≥5, median AHI 16.8, quartiles 1 to 3 8.9 to 32.6). Mean nadir oxygen saturations were 82% and 89% in patients with and without OSA, respectively. Ventricular premature complexes (≥5/hour) were more prevalent in subjects with OSA compared to subjects without OSA (median AHI 1.4, quartiles 1 to 3 0.5 to 3.0) during the night (12.2% vs 4.7%, p = 0.005) and day (14% vs 5.1%, p = 0.002). In multivariate analysis after adjusting for relevant confounders, AHI was independently associated with an increased prevalence of ventricular premature complexes at night (odds ratio per 1-U increase of log-transformed AHI 1.5, 95% confidence interval 1.1 to 2.0, p = 0.008) and during the day (odds ratio 1.37, 95% confidence interval 1.0 to 1.8, p = 0.035). In conclusion, the prevalence of ventricular premature complexes is increased in middle-aged patients with mainly mild or moderate OSA, suggesting an association between OSA and ventricular arrhythmias even in mild OSA. 相似文献

Severe obstructive sleep apnea is associated with left ventricular diastolic dysfunction 总被引:8,自引:0,他引:8
INTRODUCTION: Hypertension is common in patients with obstructive sleep apnea (OSA). However, the effect of OSA on ventricular function, especially diastolic function, is not clear. Therefore, we have assessed the prevalence of diastolic dysfunction in patients with OSA and the relationship between diastolic parameters and severity of OSA. METHODS: Sixty-eight consecutive patients with OSA confirmed by polysomnography underwent echocardiography. Diastolic function of the left ventricle was determined by transmitral valve pulse-wave Doppler echocardiography. Various baseline characteristics, severity of OSA, and echocardiographic parameters were compared between patients with and without diastolic dysfunction. RESULTS: There were 61 male and 7 female patients with a mean age of 48.1 +/- 11.1 years, body mass index of 28.5 +/- 4.3 kg/m(2), and apnea/hypopnea index (AHI) of 44.3 +/- 23.2/h (mean +/- SD). An abnormal relaxation pattern (ARP) in diastole was noted in 25 patients (36.8%). Older age (52.7 +/- 8.9 years vs 45.1 +/- 11.3 years, p = 0.005), hypertension (56% vs 20%, p = 0.002), and a lower minimum pulse oximetric saturation (SpO(2)) during sleep (70.5 +/- 17.9% vs 78.8 +/- 12.9%, respectively; p = 0.049) were more common in patients with ARP. By multivariate analysis, minimum SpO(2) < 70% was an independent predictor of ARP (odds ratio, 4.34; 95% confidence interval, 1.23 to 15.25; p = 0.02) irrespective of age and hypertension. Patients with AHI > or = 40/h had significantly longer isovolumic relaxation times than those with AHI < 40/h (106 +/- 19 ms vs 93 +/- 17 ms, respectively; p = 0.005). CONCLUSION: Diastolic dysfunction with ARP was common in patients with OSA. More severe sleep apnea was associated with a higher degree of left ventricular diastolic dysfunction in this study. 相似文献

Chemical control stability in patients with obstructive sleep apnea 总被引:14,自引:0,他引:14

The role of chemical control instability in the pathogenesis of obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) is not clear. We studied 32 patients with OSA during sleep while their upper airway was stabilized with continuous positive airway pressure. Twelve patients had repetitive OSA whenever they were asleep, regardless of body position or sleep stage, and were classified as having severe OSA (apnea-hypopnea index [AHI] = 88 +/- 19). The remaining 20 patients had sporadic OSA or repetitive OSA for only part of the time (mild/moderate OSA; AHI = 27 +/- 16). Susceptibility to periodic breathing (PB) was assessed by gradually increasing controller gain, using proportional assist ventilation. The increase in loop gain (LG) at each assist level was quantified from the ratio of assisted tidal volume (VT) to the VT obtained during single-breath reloading tests (VT amplification factor [VTAF]). Nine of 12 patients with severe OSA developed PB, with recurrent central apneas, whereas only six of 20 patients in the mild/moderate group developed PB (p < 0.02). This difference was observed despite the subjection of the mild/moderate group to greater amplification of LG; the highest values of VTAF in the mild/moderate and severe groups were 2.7 +/- 1.0 and 1.9 +/- 0.7, respectively (p < 0.01). We conclude that the chemical control system is more unstable in patients with severe OSA than in patients with milder OSA. We speculate that this may contribute to the severity of OSA, at least in some patients. 相似文献

The purpose of this study was to determine the relationship between obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) and cardiovascular disorders
in a large Japanese population, and to assess the efficacy of continuous positive airway pressure (CPAP) in the treatment
of OSA-associated arrhythmias. The study population comprised 1394 Japanese subjects (1086 men and 308 women) who were divided
into four groups on the basis of polysomnography (PSG) analysis as follows: the no sleep apnea (N-SA) group (n = 44, apnea-hypopnea index [AHI] < 5), the mild OSA (Mi-OSA) group (n = 197, 5 < AHI < 15), the moderate OSA (Mo) group (n = 368, 15 < AHI < 30), and severe OSA (SOSA) group (n = 785, AHI < 30). The following baseline characteristics were significantly associated with OSA: age (P < 0.001), gender (P < 0.001), body mass index (P < 0.001), hypertension (P < 0.001), diabetes (P = 0.009), and hyperlipidemia (P = 0.013). In the OSA group, PSG revealed the predominance of paroxysmal atrial fibrillation (PAF) (P = 0.051), premature atrial complex short run (P < 0.005), premature ventricular complex (PVC, P = 0.004), sinus bradycardia (P = 0.036), and sinus pause (arrest >2 s, P < 0.001) during the PSG recording. A total of 316 patients from the group underwent CPAP titration and were then re-evaluated.
Continuous positive airway pressure therapy significantly reduced the occurrences of PAF (P < 0.001), PVC (P = 0.016), sinus bradycardia (P = 0.001), and sinus pause (P = 0.004). The results of this study demonstrate a significant relationship between OSA and several cardiac disorders, and
also demonstrate the efficacy of CPAP in preventing OSA-associated arrhythmias in a large population of Japanese patients. 相似文献

Sleep and sleep position have a significant impact on physical, cardiac and mental health, and have been evaluated in numerous studies particularly in terms of lateral sleeping positions and their association with diseases. We retrospectively examined the relationship between the sleeping position and position-specific apnea-hypopnea index (AHI) in obstructive sleep apnea-hypopnea (OSA) patients.Methods
We assessed the sleeping body position and the body position-specific AHI score in patients who were referred for suspected OSA and underwent diagnostic nocturnal polysomnography. In order to eliminate inter-individual differences, only those who had a similar percentage of time spent in the LSSP and RSSP for each patient were enrolled. To provide this validity, only subjects that had a similar percentage of left and right lateral sleep time (±10%) were included in the analysis.Results
A total of 864 patients had nocturnal diagnostic PSG. Of them, 131 patients met the inclusion criteria. The percent rate spent in the supine sleeping position (SSP) was 31.3?±?18.7%, in the LSSP was 31.8?±?10% and in the RSSP was 32.6?±?10.8%. Whereas the SSP-specific AHI score was the highest with 60.4?±?36.2/h among all the sleeping position-specific AHI scores (p?<?0.001), the LSSP-specific AHI score was statistically higher than that for RSSP (30.2?±?32.6/h vs. 23.6?±?30.1/h; p?<?0.001). When comparing individuals sub-grouped based on OSA severity, there was a statistically significant difference between the LSSP-specific AHI score and RSSP-specific AHI score in patients with severe (p?=?0.002) and moderate (p?=?0.026), but not mild (p?=?0.130) OSA.Conclusion
We found that the sleeping position had a significant influence on apneic events and RSSP decreased the frequency of obstructive respiratory events in patients with moderate and severe disease. 相似文献18.

We investigated the prevalence of left ventricular hypertrophy (LVH) in persons with and without obstructive sleep apnea (OSA). Fifty-three persons had a nocturnal polysomnogram to diagnose OSA and 2-dimensional echocardiograms to measure left ventricular mass. OSA was considered mild if the respiratory disturbance index (RDI) was 5 to 15, moderate if the RDI was 15 to 30, and severe if the RDI was >30. LVH was diagnosed if the left ventricular mass index was >110 g/m in women and >134 g/m in men. LVH was present in 21 of 27 persons (78%) with moderate or severe OSA, in 6 of 13 persons (46%) with mild OSA, and in 3 of 13 persons (23%) with no OSA (P < 0.001 comparing moderate or severe OSA with no OSA and P < 0.05 comparing moderate or severe OSA with mild OSA). OSA was a significant independent predictor of LVH after controlling the confounding effects of hypertension with an odds ratio of 3.579 (95% confidence interval, 1.589-8.058). 相似文献

Objective
The study compares polysomnography (PSG) and cardiopulmonary coupling (CPC) sleep quality variables in patients with (1) obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) and (2) successful and unsuccessful continuous positive airway pressure (CPAP) response.Patients/methods
PSGs from 50 subjects (32 F/18 M; mean age 48.4?±?12.29 years; BMI 34.28?±?9.33) were evaluated. OSA patients were grouped by no (n?=?16), mild (n?=?13), and moderate to severe (n?=?20) OSA (apnea–hypopnea index (AHI)?≤?5, >5–15, >15 events/h, respectively). Outcome sleep quality variables were sleep stages in non-rapid eye movement, rapid eye movement sleep, and high (HFC), low (LFC), very low-frequency coupling (VLFC), and elevated LFC broad band (e-LFCBB). An AHI?≤?5 events/h and HFC?≥?50 % indicated a successful CPAP response. CPC analysis extracts heart rate variability and QRS amplitude change that corresponds to respiration. CPC-generated spectrograms represent sleep dynamics from calculated coherence product and cross-power of both time series datasets.Results
T tests differentiated no and moderate to severe OSA groups by REM % (p?=?0.003), HFC (p?=?0.007), VLFC (p?=?0.007), and LFC/HFC ratio (p?=?0.038) variables. The successful CPAP therapy group (n?=?16) had more HFC (p?=?0.003), less LFC (p?=?0.003), and e-LFCBB (p?=?0.029) compared to the unsuccessful CPAP therapy group (n?=?8). PSG sleep quality measures, except the higher arousal index (p?=?0.038) in the unsuccessful CPAP group, did not differ between the successful and unsuccessful CPAP groups. HFC?≥?50 % showed high sensitivity (77.8 %) and specificity (88.9 %) in identifying successful CPAP therapy.Conclusions
PSG and CPC measures differentiated no from moderate to severe OSA groups and HFC?≥?50 % discriminated successful from unsuccessful CPAP therapy. The HFC?≥?50 % cutoff showed clinical value in identifying sleep quality disturbance among CPAP users. 相似文献20.
