Objective: Patients with obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) frequently suffer from migraine, however the causal relationship between OSA and migraine is unknown. Investigating the causation will assist in understanding the etiology of OSA and migraine.
Methods: Bidirectional two-sample Mendelian randomization (MR) and multivariable MR (MVMR) approaches were carried out to investigate the causal link between OSA and migraine.

Department of Systems Medicine, University of Rome "Tor Vergata", 00133, Rome, Italy.
Background: Interleukin-6 (IL-6) represents one of the main molecules involved in inflammatory responses, which can be altered in either patients with cognitive impairment or obstructive sleep apnea (OSA). The present study aimed to evaluate serum IL-6 levels and cognitive performance in patients with severe OSA (Apnea-Hypopnea Index - AHI >30/h).
Methods: Thirty patients with severe OSA were compared to 15 controls similar in age, sex, and Body Mass Index.

It's interesting to note that despite clinical improvements in upper airway dimensions, the maxillary, mandibular, and mandibular body lengths remained smaller than those of controls. This finding may represent an underlying neurocristopathy, which represents a deficiency in the population of neural crest cells available in the embryonic maxillary and mandibular processes de novo. Indeed, it is known that craniofacial dimensions in infants with malformations, such as cleft palate, are often smaller when compared to non-cleft counterparts.

Background: This study aimed to compare the effectiveness of the NoSAS, STOP-Bang, and Berlin scoring systems, which are utilized to predict obstructive sleep apnea syndrome (OSAS), in forecasting difficult airway management. Additionally, the study sought to determine which of these scoring systems is the most practical and effective for this purpose.
Methods: Following the ethics committee approval, preoperative NoSAS, STOP-Bang, and Berlin scores were calculated for 420 patients aged 18 years and older who were scheduled for tracheal intubation.
