Rationale: Continuous positive airway pressure (CPAP) is the treatment of choice in patients
with symptomatic obstructive sleep apnea (OSA). CPAP treatment improves quality of life (…

Background Continuous positive airway pressure ( CPAP ) in asthma patients with concomitant
obstructive sleep apnea syndrome ( OSAS ) seems to have a favorable impact on asthma…

Continuous positive airway pressure (CPAP) reduces blood pressure levels in hypertensive
patients with obstructive sleep apnoea (OSA). However, the role of CPAP in blood pressure …

The goal of this study was to assess the relationship between the severity of obstructive sleep
apnoea (OSA) and the levels of carcinogenesis- and tumour growth-related biomarkers in …

Obstructive sleep apnoea (OSA) upregulates the programmed cell death-1 receptor and its
ligand (PD-L1) pathway, potentially compromising immunosurveillance. We compared …

Background In patients with obstructive sleep apnoea (OSA), intermittent hypoxia induces
overexpression of paraspeckle component (PSPC)1, a master modulator of transforming …

Midkine (MDK) might mediate the proangiogenic effect of intermittent hypoxia (IH) in
patients with obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) and cutaneous melanoma (CM). We compare …

Active transforming growth factor-β1 (TGF-β1), a cytokine partially regulated by hypoxia and
obesity, has been related with poor prognosis in several tumors. We determine whether …

Objectives Although an association between uric acid (UA) levels and obstructive sleep
apnea (OSA) has been reported, the effect of continuous positive airway pressure (CPAP) on …

(OSA). CPAP improves quality of life (QoL) in men with OSA, but its role in women has not
been assessed. Considering the different clinical presentation and pathophysiology of OSA in …
