Obstructive sleep apnea syndrome (OSAS) is characterized by intermittent hypoxia (IH)
during sleep due to recurrent upper airway obstruction. The derived oxidative stress (OS) …

A recent report from the European Sleep Research Society's task force “Beyond AHI”

Obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) is a common, chronic, sleep-related breathing disorder
characterized by partial or complete airway obstruction in sleep. The gold standard …

Although polysomnography is the gold standard method to diagnose obstructive sleep
apnea syndrome (OSAS), there is an ongoing quest for simpler and relatively inexpensive …

Results The severity of OSA was assessed on the basis of AHI. 8 In 24 patients (28.6%), the
AHI was lower than 5 (healthy controls). Mild (15> AHI≥ 5), moderate (30> AHI≥ 15), and …

Abstract Evaluation of microRNAs (miRNAs) could allow characterization of the obstructive
sleep apnea (OSA) and help diagnose it more accurately. We aimed to examine circulating …

Introduction Obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) is a chronic, heterogeneous and
multicomponent disorder with associated cardiovascular and metabolic alterations. Despite …
