Neurocognitive Deficits in Patients with Obstructive Sleep Apnea Syndrome (OSAS)

OSAS is characterized by periodic complete or partial cessation of breathing while sleeping. These recurrent events of breathing result in fragmented sleep and recurrent hypoxemia (reductions in hemoglobin oxygen levels) (American Academy of Sleep Med...

PURPOSE The aim of this study was to evaluate markers of systemic oxidative stress and antioxidant capacity in subjects with and without OSAS in order to investigate the most important factors that determine the oxidant-antioxidant status. METHODS A total of 66 subjects referred to our Sleep laboratory were examined by full polysomnography. Oxidative stress and antioxidant activity were asses...
متن کاملObstructive sleep apnea syndrome (OSAS) in mouth breathing children.
UNLABELLED It is well known that mouth breathing is associated with adenotonsillar hypertrophy - which is the main cause of obstructive sleep apnea among children. Despite the importance of this matter, there are only a handful of studies showing the relationship between OSAS and mouth breathing. AIM to determine the prevalence of obstructive sleep disorders in mouth breathing children and st...
متن کاملObstructive Sleep Apnea Syndrome (OSAS). Review of the literature
Obstructive sleep apnea and hypopnea syndrome is characterized by repeated airway collapse during sleep. The literature describes multiple causes of the disease. The main cause is a reduction of the expansion forces of the pharyngeal dilator muscles, as in situations of genioglossal muscle dysfunction, and discoordination between the inspiratory activity of the muscle and respiratory effort, wh...
