Robust research is increasingly showing the ill effects of climate change, from rising temperatures to severe weather events, on human sleep.
What is the value of the oxygen desaturation index (ODI) as compared to the apnea-hypopnea index (AHI) in accurately diagnosing adult obstructive sleep apnea (OSA)?
Physicians must recognize that the validity and accuracy of the smartphone apps are unknown.
In patients with high blood pressure resistant to treatment who also have obstructive sleep apnea, the more severe their OSA, the higher their blood pressure
Screening for depression in patients with OSA would be worthwhile because there is a high rate of comorbidity.
Multiple therapeutic options may be effective for treating mild pediatric OSA including observation, management with anti-inflammatory medications, and surgery.
Upper airway stimulation (UAS) is successful in treating obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) showing improved outcomes, length of stay, and readmission compared to transoral robotic surgery (TORS).
New data show that air pollution may contribute to obstructive sleep apnea.
Early intervention to treat sleep disorders such as obstructive sleep apnea may help prevent or delay Alzheimer’s disease.
There is level 1 evidence that suggests UPPP surgery is an effective treatment for OSA in the appropriately selected patient.
