Apnea Syndrome

Background: Obstructive sleep apnea syndrome (OSAS) is one of the most common sleep-related breathing disorders. The aim of this study was to improve diagnostics in OSAS using blood circulating biomarkers. We consider the potential of cardiac-specific miRNAs in the diagnosis and risk assessment of cardiovascular complications. Materials & methods: Plasmatic levels of miR-1-3p, miR-133a-3p and miR-499a-5p were measured by reverse transcription-PCR and compared with the clinical status of OSAS patients and controls. Results: The level of miR-499 was higher (p = 0.0343) in OSAS patients (mean expression: 0.00561) compared with the controls (mean expression: 0.00003), using the multivariate logistic regression. Conclusion: The role of miR-499 in gene expression regulation during hypoxia and our findings indicate that miR-499 could be a new diagnostic biomarker for OSAS.

Introduction: Treatment of pediatric obstructive sleep apnea syndrome is surgical. The incidence of postoperative respiratory complications in this population is 5–25%. Aim: The aim of the authors was to present the preoperative evaluation and monitoring procedure elaborated in Heim Pál Children Hospital, Budapest. Method: 142 patients were involved in the study. Patient history was obtained and physical examination was performed in all cases. Thereafter, polysomnography was carried out, the severity of the obstructive sleep apnea syndrome was determined, and the patients underwent tonsilloadenotomy. Results: 45 patients with mild, 50 patients with moderate and 47 patients with severe obstructive sleep apnea syndrome were diagnosed. There was no complication in patients with mild disease, while complications were observed in 6 patients in the moderate group and 24 patients in the severe group (desaturation, apnea, stridor, stop breathing) (p<0.000). In patients with severe obstructive sleep apnea syndrome, no significant difference was noted in preoperative apnoea-hypapnea index (p = 0.23) and in nadir oxygen saturation values (p = 0.73) between patients with and without complication. Conclusions: Patients with severe obstructive sleep apnea syndrome should be treated in hospital where pediatric intensive care unit is available. Orv. Hetil., 2014, 155(18), 703–707.
