Surgery can treat sleep apnea. An elderly male underwent lingual/palatine tonsillectomy for OSA. He was then found to have T3N2 p16+ squamous cell carcinoma. He is receiving chemoradiation. Recognition of occult malignancy in tonsillectomy specimens may facilitate early diagnosis and treatment for patients following sleep apnea surgery.

Background: The 2D:4D digit ratio (DR), representing the relative length of the index finger to the ring finger, is an anthropometric marker that shows sexual dimorphism, with males typically having a lower ratio than females. This parameter is linked to prenatal androgen exposure (PAE), which influences sexual differentiation of the brain and behavior. This study aimed to investigate the correlation between PAE and sleep among young adults.

Objective: To investigate the effects of modified twin-block appliances (MTBA) on obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) and mandibular retrognathia and the changes in the upper airway, hyoid bone position, and hypoxia-related inflammatory marker levels in children with OSA.
Methods: This study included children with OSA and mandibular retrognathia and those with class I without mandibular retrognathia (n = 35 each). The experimental group comprised children with OSA and mandibular retrognathia managed using MTBA.

Center for Public Health, Department of Epidemiology, Medical University of Vienna, Vienna, Austria.
Objectives: Fatigue and sleep disorders are common geriatric conditions and are associated with an increased risk of cognitive decline. This study aimed to examine the relationships among self-perceived fatigue, objective muscle fatigue, sleep apnea risk, insomnia, and cognitive function, focusing on their associations with mild cognitive impairment (MCI).
Design: Cross-sectional study.
Inhibition of NSUN6 protects against intermittent hypoxia-induced oxidative stress and inflammatory response in adipose tissue through suppressing macrophage ferroptosis and M1 polarization.

Aims: Accumulating studies have demonstrated obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) is strongly associated with metabolic syndrome (MetS) and inflammatory response in adipose tissue. Chronic intermittent hypoxia (CIH) has been proved leading to M1 macrophage polarization that contributes to adipose tissue inflammation, but the molecular mechanism remains unclear. Epigenetic regulation of RNA has been found playing crucial roles in incremental diseases.
