Complexity, costs, and waiting list issues demand a simplified alternative for sleep apnea-hypopnea syndrome (SAHS) diagnosis. The blood oxygen saturation signal (SpO) carries useful information about SAHS and can be easily acquired from overnight ox...
PURPOSE: Breathing sounds during sleep are altered and characterized by various acoustic specificities in patients with sleep disordered breathing (SDB). This study aimed to identify acoustic biomarkers indicative of the severity of SDB by analyzing ...

BACKGROUND: The monitoring of the respiratory rate is vital in several medical conditions, including sleep apnea because patients with sleep apnea exhibit an irregular respiratory rate compared with controls. Therefore, monitoring the respiratory rat...
This study proposes a method of automatically classifying sleep apnea/hypopnea events based on sleep states and the severity of sleep-disordered breathing (SDB) using photoplethysmogram (PPG) and oxygen saturation (SpO2) signals acquired from a pulse...
BACKGROUND: Electroencephalography (EEG) based sleep staging is commonly used in clinical routine. Feature extraction and representation plays a crucial role in EEG-based automatic classification of sleep stages. Sparse representation (SR) is a state...

One in 10 children experiences sleep-disordered breathing (SDB). Untreated SDB is associated with poor cognition, but the underlying mechanisms are less understood. We assessed the relationship between magnetic resonance imaging-derived upper airwa...
BACKGROUND: Sleep apnea (SA), a prevalent sleep-related breathing disorder, disrupts normal respiratory patterns during sleep. This disruption can have a cascading effect on the body, potentially leading to complications in various organs, including ...
