Global Health Governance Challenges 2016 – Are We Ready?
The year 2016 could turn out to be a turning point for global health, new political realities and global insecurities will test governance and financing mechanisms in relation to both people and planet. But most importantly political factors such as the global power shift and “the rise of the rest” will define the future of global health. A new mix of health inequity and security challenges has...
متن کاملBlood flow of the middle cerebral artery with sleep-disordered breathing: correlation with obstructive hypopneas.
BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE Epidemiological data link heavy snoring to an increased risk for stroke, an association often ascribed to hypertension and/or sleep apnea. The aim of this study was to determine whether obstructive hypopneas, central apneas, or obstructive apneas during sleep alter blood flow of the middle cerebral artery (MCA). METHODS Doppler sonography of the MCA was performed in con...
متن کاملBlood Flow of the Middle Cerebral Artery With Sleep-Disordered Breathing Correlation With Obstructive Hypopneas
Background and Purpose—Epidemiological data link heavy snoring to an increased risk for stroke, an association often ascribed to hypertension and/or sleep apnea. The aim of this study was to determine whether obstructive hypopneas, central apneas, or obstructive apneas during sleep alter blood flow of the middle cerebral artery (MCA). Methods—Doppler sonography of the MCA was performed in conju...
متن کاملEffects of inhaled CO2 and added dead space on idiopathic central sleep apnea.
We hypothesized that reductions in arterial PCO2 (PaCO2) below the apnea threshold play a key role in the pathogenesis of idiopathic central sleep apnea syndrome (ICSAS). If so, we reasoned that raising PaCO2 would abolish apneas in these patients. Accordingly, patients with ICSAS were studied overnight on four occasions during which the fraction of end-tidal CO2 and transcutaneous PCO2 were me...
متن کاملFeasibility of noninvasive single-channel automated differentiation of obstructive and central hypopneas with nasal airflow.
BACKGROUND The identification of obstructive and central hypopneas is considered challenging in clinical practice. Presently, obstructive and central hypopneas are usually not differentiated or scores lack reliability due to the technical limitations of standard polysomnography. Esophageal pressure measurement is the gold-standard for identifying these events but its invasiveness deters its usa...
