device obstructive sleep apneaupper airway stimulationThe muscle A-kinase anchoring protein (mAKAP) tethers cAMP-dependent enzymes to perinuclear membranes of cardiomyocytes. We now demonstrate that two alternatively spliced forms of mAKAP are expressed: mAKAPalpha and mAKAPbeta. The longer form, mAKA...
Conclusions: Accurate RespR trends can be derived from an ITZ sensor over a variety of challenging posture, activity, and respiratory conditions, including exercise and sleep apnea. Monitoring RespR with implanted devices may prove to be a useful tool for managing ambulatory HF patients....
