Abstract Coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) is a novel, highly transmittable and severe
strain disease, which has rapidly spread worldwide. Despite epidemiological evidence …

Atrial fibrillation (AF) is the most common sustained arrhythmia encountered in humans and
is a significant source of morbidity and mortality. Despite its prevalence, our mechanistic …

Rationale: Sleep-disordered breathing (SDB) is frequently associated with atrial
arrhythmias. Increased CaMKII (Ca/calmodulin-dependent protein kinase II) activity has …

In January 2019, a European Respiratory Society research seminar entitled “Targeting the
detrimental effects of sleep disturbances and disorders” was held in Dublin, Ireland. It …

Available evidence suggests a pathogenetic role of sleep breathing disorders in both atrial
and ventricular arrhythmias with non-negligible clinical implications. Scientific literature has …

Atrial Fibrillation (AF) is the most common arrhythmia in adults, and the rapid increase in AF
prevalence has been classified by experts as an epidemic. The mechanisms of AF are …

Background Adaptive servoventilation (ASV) effectively treats nocturnal respiratory events in
patients with heart failure and reduced ejection fraction (HFrEF) and central sleep apnoea …

Purpose Obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) is associated with the management of atrial
fibrillation (AF). This manuscript aims to discuss the effects of continuous positive airway …

Atrial fibrillation (AF) continues to be associated with significant all-cause mortality risk and
increasing health care cost burden. Hospitalizations due to AF have now overtaken those of …

Obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) is closely associated with central nervous system diseases
and could lead to autonomic nerve dysfunction, which is often seen in neurodegenerative …
