Background: A large number of symptomatic individuals with central sleep apnea (CSA) in clinical practice have an indication for adaptive servo-ventilation (ASV) therapy.
Research Question: What are the effects of ASV therapy on sleep quality and PROMs in patients with CSA across a range of devices and indications.
Methods: This prospective, multicenter, observational cohort study was conducted in France and enrolled participants from June 2017 to February 2020.

Introduction: Thyroid storm or severe hyperthyroidism can present with various signs and symptoms. They are mostly controlled by general treatment, such as anti-thyroid drugs and other medications to control clinical features. However, in rare cases, they are more severe, and they only respond to more aggressive treatments, such as plasmapheresis and total thyroidectomy.

Background: The aim of this study was to evaluate the prognostic impact of computed tomography (CT)-based body composition parameters in metabolically unhealthy normal-weight patients (MUHNW) with aortic stenosis (AS) undergoing transcatheter aortic valve replacement (TAVR).
Methods: This prospective cohort study involved adults with normal weight scheduled for TAVR. Patients were divided into two groups: metabolically healthy normal-weight (MHNW) and MUHNW.

Background: Underdoses of direct oral anticoagulants (DOAC) are sometimes prescribed due to bleeding risk concerns in patients with atrial fibrillation (AF). We investigated the prevalence of DOAC underdosing and its impact on clinical outcomes in AF patients undergoing percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI).
Methods And Results: This multicenter observational cohort study enrolled patients with AF on DOAC undergoing PCI between January 2015 and March 2021 at 15 institutions across Japan.

Background: Driving pressure is thought to determine the effect of low tidal ventilation on survival in patients with acute respiratory distress syndrome. The leading cause of mortality in these patients is non-pulmonary multiorgan dysfunction, which is believed to worsen due to the biological response to mechanical ventilation (biotrauma). Therefore, we aimed to analyze the association between driving pressure, biotrauma, and non-pulmonary multiorgan dysfunction.
