Accumulating research highlights that exposure to serum brominated flame retardants (BFRs) may elevate health risks. The effects of BFRs, both alone and in combination, on obstructive sleep apnea syndrome (OSAS) have not been thoroughly studied. Our main goal was examine the association between individual mixtures BFRs OSAS risk. Data from National Health Nutrition Examination Survey (NHANES) were employed, including 1,341 participants. We included participants with full details OSAS, covariates, 7 types (PBDE28, PBDE47, PBDE99, PBDE100, PBDE153, PBB153, PBDE209). To investigate risk exposure, multivariate logistic regression, weighted quantile sum (WQS) g-computation (QGC), Bayesian kernel machine regression (BKMR) models, restricted cubic splines (RCS) implemented. Serum PBDE28, showed positive correlations toxic effect co-exposure consistently demonstrated through results WQS QGC BKMR models. PBB153 determined be most BFRs. Additionally, RCS model also verified strong non-linear relationship existed PBB153. Findings study prove exerts a deleterious Future large-scale prospective investigations experimental studies are desirable confirm these findings.

Abstract Background Tinnitus affects approximately 740 million adults globally, involving hearing, emotion, and sleep systems. However, studies using polysomnography pure-tone audiometry (PTA) are limited. We aimed to assess the correlation between tinnitus quality, characteristics, depression PTA. Methods In this cross-sectional study, we divided participants into non-tinnitus groups. included 100 outpatients (65 with tinnitus, 35 without) from a medical center in Taiwan, who underwent completed rating scales including Patient Health Questionnaire-9 (PHQ-9), Chinese version of Pittsburgh Sleep Quality Index (PSQI), Chinese-Mandarin Handicap Inventory (THI-CM). analyzed correlations, conducted group comparisons, assessed factors related THI-CM scores, constructed ROC curves predict group, performed multinomial logistic regression explore associations.

Sleep apnea syndrome (SAS) is a prevalent sleep disorder strongly associated with obesity, metabolic dysregulation, and cardiovascular diseases. While its underlying pathophysiological mechanisms remain incompletely understood, genetic factors likely play pivotal role in SAS pathogenesis. This study investigates the causal relationships between potential drug target genes using multiple statistical approaches, aiming to provide novel insights for targeted therapeutic development. We conducted comprehensive analysis integrating methodologies investigate gene-SAS relationships. Using publicly available GWAS eQTL databases, we performed Mendelian Randomization (MR) inverse variance weighted (IVW) method, validated by median MR-Egger approaches. Summary-data-based MR (SMR) analysis, coupled HEIDI testing, assessed direct gene expression-SAS associations while controlling linkage disequilibrium (LD). Colocalization evaluated probability of shared variants SNPs, expression, SAS. Statistical significance was determined Benjamini-Hochberg testing correction (FDR < 0.05). Additionally, mediation explored TEX10's influence on through intermediates including BMI, waist circumference, HDL cholesterol. identified 18 candidate significantly SAS, MAPKAPK3, TNXB, MPHOSPH8, TEX10 showing consistent across analyses.

Abstract Background Atrial fibrillation (AF) is characterized by the absence of p-waves on ECG and irregular rhythm. It often presents with palpitations either may occur acutely over a short period or intermittently several years. Other cardinal symptoms atrial include fatigue, dyspnea, lightheadedness; it important however to note that most affected individuals are asymptomatic. Concurrently, sleep disorders such as obstructive apnea (OSA), insomnia, narcolepsy, circadian rhythm which group conditions associated body’s internal clock affect timing alertness, raising concerns due their potential associations arrhythmias. This review explores bidirectional relationship between AF disorders, highlighting implications for risk stratification management strategies.

The close relationship between sleep apnea MetS well established. addition, these two share a common factor obesity have high prevalence among obese individuals. Nevertheless, the association can vary depending on factors, such as race sex, research relatively low rates East Asians lacking. This study aimed to investigate snoring nonobese Koreans.
