Background. Sleep apnea (SA) is a common breathing disorder characterized by repetitive
upper airway narrowing and closure. Although SA has been demonstrated to be an …

Background The present study aimed to test if the temporal sequence between sleep apnea
(SA) diagnosis and incident myocardial infarction (MI) was associated with the long-term …

Background There has been increasing interest in the concept of ischemic preconditioning
and its role in cardio-protection. Obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) is characterized by recurrent …

Background Obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) is an independent risk factor for many
cardiovascular conditions such as coronary artery disease, myocardial infarction, systemic …

Introduction Anecdotally, patients with cardiovascular and neurological medical conditions
present with sleep disturbances in duration, efficiency, and timing, or with sleep disorders …

Background While the longer-term Obstructive Sleep apnea (OSA)-related intermittent
hypoxia (IH) leads to various comorbidities, it has become increasingly evident that OSA …

Background While sleep apnea (SA) might be a modifiable cardiovascular risk factor, recent
data suggest that SA is severely underdiagnosed in patients after acute myocardial …

Objective: To investigate the impact of moderate/severe obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) on
the prognosis of acute myocardial infarction. Methods: We prospectively selected patients …

Abstract Study Objective: We aimed to test the hypothesis that clinically suspected
obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) independently predicts worse in-hospital outcome in patients …

Background Though associations between obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) and
cardiovascular outcomes are well described, limited data exist regarding the impact of OSA …
