Objective: Substantiation of optimization of laser radiation parameters when performing surgery on the soft palate to improve the results of treatment of patients with ronchopathy and obstructive sleep apnea syndrome.

Material And Methods: Based on the experience of performing laser sculptural uvulopalatoplasty in 309 patients with ronchopathy and obstructive sleep apnea syndrome, a rational choice of parameters of laser radiation used during the operation is justified.

Results: Optimization of laser radiation parameters during laser sculptural uvulopalatoplasty allowed to improve the positive results of treatment of patients with ronchopathy and obstructive sleep apnea syndrome in 98.4% of cases (304 out of 309 operated patients).

Conclusion: Optimization of laser radiation parameters when performing laser sculptural uvulopalatoplasty increases the effectiveness of treatment of patients with ronchopathy and obstructive sleep apnea syndrome.

Introduction: Mandibular advancement devices (MAD) are an alternative to continuous positive airway pressure for the treatment of obstructive sleep apnea hypopnea syndrome (OSAHS). We aimed to evaluate the efficiency of a custom-made monoblock MAD for the treatment of OSAHS.

Materials And Methods: We carried out a monocentric retrospective observational study including patients with OSAHS (mild, moderate or severe) or isolated ronchopathy from January 2005 to March 2023.

Objective: The aim of this prospective study was to determine whether serum or saliva S100B could be established as an invasive or non-invasive biomarker of cerebrovascular stress due to chronic intermittent hypoxia in obstructive sleep apnea (OSA).

Patients And Methods: S100B levels in serum and saliva were measured by an enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) in 40 patients with polysomnographically confirmed OSA (n=34) or ronchopathy (n=6) and 20 control subjects (n=20). We also investigated four healthy volunteers (n=4) to determine whether the S100B levels in serum and saliva are dependent on the time of day.

The objective of the present work was the clinical and instrumental study of the vegetative nervous system in 25 patients of different age presenting with ronchopathy. The results of the study indicate the prevalence of the vagotonic type of primary vegetative tone and the specific features of vegetative reactivity differing from those in the control subjects (n=12). Moreover, all the patients were shown to have concomitant diseases of the upper respiratory tract.

Aim: The purpose of this prospective study was to determine whether combined functional genioplasty and orthodontic treatment in patients with vertical mandibular growth can be beneficial not only in achieving an esthetic outcome and orthodontic stability but also for the multi-disciplinary management of oral ventilation.

Methods: Twenty-five non-obese adolescents (mean age: 14.6 ± 1.
