The mental symptoms of sleep apnea are more serious than the temporary grogginess caused by drowsiness. During an apnea (Greek for “without breath”) the subject actually stops breathing, which starves the brain of oxygen. This duress, paired with chronic fatigue, can cause physical, measurable...
COPD frequently coincides with obstructive sleep apnea (OSA), a condition characterized by gaps in breathing during sleep. Sleep apnea causes frequent and sudden nighttime awakenings, as well as drops in blood oxygen levels that accompany spikes in carbon dioxide levels. Co-occurring COPD and OSA a...

Conversely, recent blood loss from surgery, heavy menstrual cycles, or other types of anemia may cause your A1C to be falsely low. To complicate matters, there appear to be genetic differences in HbA1c’s relationship to blood glucose; these “unknown confounders”, sometimes corresponding to rac...
Worsens Sleep Apnea Sleep apnea is a common sleep disorder in which breathing repeatedly stops and starts during sleep when the airways are partially or fully blocked. Alcohol relaxes upper airway muscles, increasing the likelihood of the airways collapsing and moresleep apnea episodes, leading to mo...
Excessive proinflammatory cytokine storm could be the main cause of increased vulnerability in this frail population. In patients with diabetes and/or heart disease, a low inflammatory state is often associated with gut dysbiosis. The increase amount of microbial metabolites (i.e., trimethylamine N-...
Low flow nocturnal oxygen therapy does not suppress haemoglobin levels or increase painful crises in sickle cell disease. Br J Haematol. 2013;161:455-6.Ip H, Kesse-Adu R, Howard J, Hart N. Low flow nocturnal oxygen therapy does not suppress haemoglobin levels or increase painful crises in ...
A large population-based study (i.e., 24,325 men and women aged ≥35 years) has evidenced that a high polyphenol antioxidant content (PAC) score in the diet [261] is associated in both genders with low-grade inflammation, evaluated as C-Reactive Protein levels, white blood cells, ...
In previous studies, the effect of single or combined intake of caffeine (CAF) and taurine (TAU) on exercise performance was investigated. However, the potential synergistic effect on physical and cognitive performance after fatigue induced by anaerobic
Does NAC cause pulmonary hypertension? What causes pulmonary hypertension? Does chronic obstructive pulmonary disease cause low blood pressure? Does myocardial ischemia cause high blood pressure? Does sleep apnea cause pulmonary hypertension? How does obesity cause coronary artery disease?
