Abstract:

Introduction: Obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) is a common chronic disorder consisting of episodes with impaired breathing due to obstruction of the upper airways. Treatment with Continuous Positive Airway Pressure (CPAP) is a potentially effective treatment, but adherence is low. Several potential factors affecting adherence, e.g., subjective sleepiness and personality, are only quantifiable through questionnaires. Better knowledge about psychometric properties of such questionnaires might improve future research on CPAP adherence and thus lead to better treatment options. Aim: Study I: To descr

Abstract:

The purpose of the current study was to test the hypothesis that chronic hypoxia associated with sleep-disordered breathing relates to abnormal Nitric Oxide (NO) production and vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) expression patterns that contribute to aberrancy of specific determinates of cardiovascular and cardiopulmonary function before, during, and after graded exercise. These patterns may further reflect pathologic alteration of signaling within the phosphatidylinositol 3-kinase (PI3K)/protein kinase B (Akt-1) transduction network.

Patients with Cushing’s syndrome often complain about sleep disruption and excessive day time sleepiness, which could contribute to worsening quality of life and metabolic comorbidities (obesity, hypertension, diabetes mellitus, dyslipidaemia) associated with hypercortisolism. Sleep disorders have been shown to increase the risk of developing cardiovascular disease and that the risk of cardiovascular disease in patients with hypercortisolism may be worsened by impaired sleep. Cushing’s syndrome patients may also be at increased risk for obstructive sleep apnea due to their obesity.<br>Disserta

Children and adolescents with Down Syndrome (DS) have a high incidence of sleep problems, including Obstructive Sleep Apnea Syndrome (OSAS). They are also likely to have deficits in neuropsychological tasks tapping prefrontal function and hippocampal function. There has recent revival of literature suggesting an active role for sleep in memory consolidation and problem-solving in both children and adults. Furthermore, given the cognitive and behavioral sequellae of OSAS in typically developing children it is logical to test if the hypoxemia and increased sleep fragmentation, the two major p

Abstract:

While obstructive sleep apnea among children with Down syndrome is very common, the pre-existing risk factors and its impact to neurodevelopment are not well known. The aims and objectives of this systematic review are to determine the prevalence of OSA among DS children and to identify the associated risk factors. 6 articles that met the inclusion criteria were retrieved after using PubMed and Google Scholar in literature searching. The prevalence of OSA has great variation among different countries but are relatively high, ranging from 57% to 79%. OSA was significant associated with obesity

Abstract:

SAHS (Sleep Apnea-Hypopnea Syndrome) is recognized to be a serious disorder with high prevalence in the population. The main clinical triad for SAHS is made up of 3 symptoms: apneas and hypopneas, chronic snoring and excessive daytime sleepiness (EDS). The gold standard for diagnosing SAHS is an overnight polysomnographic study performed at the hospital, a laborious, expensive and time-consuming procedure in which multiple biosignals are recorded. In this thesis we offer improvements to the current approaches to diagnosis and assessment of patients with SAHS. We demonstrate that snoring and ar

Abstract:

Obstructive sleep apnea syndrome (OSAS), a chronic respiratory disorder affecting as many as 1 in 5 adults, is associated with repetitive collapse of the upper airway during sleep and results in fragmented sleep and intermittent periods of hypoxia and hypercapnia. If left untreated, OSAS increases the risk for hypertension, insulin resistance, metabolic syndrome (MetS) in a manner that is independent of obesity in mid-adulthood. However, it is still unknown if evidence of these relationships is apparent in young adults with OSAS who are otherwise healthy and free of other chronic comorbiditi

Obstructive sleep apnea syndrome (OSAS) is a complex disorder characterized by repetitive bouts of upper airway collapse during sleep, causing subsequent intermittent hypoxia, hypercapnia, and fragmented sleep and is also associated with significant morbidity including daytime sleepiness, hypertension, and elevated cardiovascular risk. OSAS affects at least 4% of men and 2% of women; unfortunately, it is estimated that 80% to 90% of adults with OSAS remain undiagnosed.

Therefore, there is a clear need to identify new methods for assessing OSAS risk.

碩士<br>國立臺中科技大學<br>資訊管理系碩士班<br>104<br>The pressures of modern working life have caused deterioration in the sleep quality of people. Among sleep disorders, sleep apnea affects our everyday life the most. It not only disturbs physiological regulatory functions, but also often leads to poor focus and lack of efficiency at work. It may even lead to drowsiness during the working day, resulting in irreversible tragedy caused by inattention. This study focused mainly on the early detection of sleep apnea and assisting patients in early prevention, to avoid worsening of their condition. Polysomnogram

碩士<br>國立臺灣大學<br>流行病學研究所<br>97<br>Background： The predictive model for obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) measured by apnoea - hypopnoea index using epidemiological and clinical parameters has been proposed in previous studies. However, how the statistical property of AHI corresponds to the severity of OSA has been hardly addressed. Nor the application of predictive model to estimating risk reduction after the administration of intervention program that modulates the modifiable predictors. Objectives： We are tempted to investigate the statistical property of AHI, then applied different multiple regr
