breathing disorder characterized by repetitive episodes of complete or partial obstruction of …

Due in part to overall improvements in health, the population of elderly individuals is
increasing rapidly. Similarly, obstructive sleep apnoea (OSA) is both gaining increased …

Obstructive sleep apnea results in intermittent hypoxia via repetitive upper airway
obstruction leading to partial or complete upper airway closure, apneas and hypopneas …

Stroke is the leading cause of death and disability globally. Sleep disordered breathing
(SDB), a potentially modifiable risk factor of stroke, is highly prevalent in stroke survivors …

Obstructive sleep apnea (OSA), prevalent in patients with stroke, increases the risks of
