Progesterone is present in a wide spectrum of biological activity within a variety of tissues. This hormone is also known to affect reproduction, sleep quality, respiration, mood, appetite, learning, memory and sexual ...
Tonsil volume, tonsil grade and obstructive sleep apnea: is there any meaningful correlation?
(Faculdade de Medicina / USP, 2011)
OBJECTIVES: The aims of this study were to evaluate the correlation between oropharyngeal examination and objective palatine tonsil volume in snoring adults and verify the influence of the oropharyngeal anatomy, body mass ...
Complete denture wear during sleep in elderly sleep apnea patients-a preliminary study
(SPRINGER HEIDELBERGHEIDELBERG, 2012)
There is no consensus in the literature about the impact of complete denture wear on obstructive sleep apnea (OSA). The goal of this randomized clinical study was to assess if complete denture wear during sleep interferes ...

Screening of obstructive sleep apnea with empirical mode decomposition of pulse oximetry
(Elsevier, 2014-06)
Detection of desaturations on the pulse oximetry signal is of great importance for the diagnosis of sleep apneas. Using the counting of desaturations, an index can be built to help in the diagnosis of severe cases of ...

Calcium channel blockers are independently associated with short sleep duration in hypertensive patients with obstructive sleep apnea
(LIPPINCOTT WILLIAMS & WILKINS, 2011)
Objective Obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) and hypertension (HYP) frequently coexist and have additive harmful effects on the cardiovascular system. There is also growing evidence that short sleep duration may contribute ...
Cross-Sectional Comparison of Sleep-Disordered Breathing in Native Peruvian Highlanders and Lowlanders
(Mary Ann Liebert, 2017)
BACKGROUND: Altitude can accentuate sleep disordered breathing (SDB), which has been linked to cardiovascular and metabolic diseases. SDB in highlanders has not been characterized in large controlled studies. The purpose ...
