Whole-night recording of 9-30 parameters and calculation of various indices allow differentiation of various sleep related breathing disorders and estimation of their severity (Fig. 1, 2). Parallel monitoring of changes in ventilation, arterial oxygen saturation, ECG, EEG, EMG and others, give a possibility to appreciate the gradual development of cardiovascular, neuropsychic, endocrine-metabolic and other consequences of sleep related breathing disorders, their dependence on different phases and stages of sleep as well as their alterations by treatment.

Objectives: Hypoglossal nerve stimulation (HGNS) is a promising surgical option for patients with obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) who are intolerant of continuous positive airway pressure therapy (CPAP). Efficacy studies for HGNS stimulation largely focus on the apnea-hypopnea index and/or oxygen desaturation index. This study's objective was to show the physiological effects of HGNS stimulation on upper airway patency, airflow, and treatment effect during polysomnography (PSG) testing.

Literature evidenced an association of maternal sleep disturbances and maternal obstructive sleep apnea with significant obstetric complications. Moreover, the maternal sleep disturbances effect on feto-placental circulation had not been extensively examined. Our objective is to explore the possible maternal sleep disturbances impact on the feto-placental indices evaluated through the Doppler study.

Sleep apnea (SA) is a sleep disorder characterized by frequent interruptions in breathing during sleep and is widely recognized as a significant global public health concern. Although genome-wide association studies (GWAS) have identified several loci associated with SA susceptibility, the underlying genes and biological mechanisms remain largely unknown. A cross-tissue transcriptome-wide association study (TWAS) was performed to integrate SA GWAS summary statistics from 410,385 individuals (43,901 cases and 366,484 controls) and gene expression data from 49 distinct tissues and obtained from 838 post-mortem donors.
