Nasal Resistance and Inflammation: Mechanisms for Obstructive Sleep Apnea from Chronic Rhinosinusitis
Journal of clinical sleep medicine JCSM official publication of the American Academy of Sleep Medicine(2024)
摘要
We have previously estimated that the prevalence of obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) among World Trade Center (WTC) rescue and recovery workers is 75% and identified that having symptoms of chronic rhinosinusitis (CRS) is an independent risk factor for OSA in this population. Nasal inflammation and/or elevated awake nasal resistance that carried over into sleep could explain this association. To understand the mechanism(s) for the elevated risk of OSA observed in WTC responders with chronic rhinosinusitis (CRS) symptoms we examined if elevated awake supine nasal resistance was associated with OSA, CRS and/or nasal inflammatory biomarkers.
