1 Μαρ 2022 · Untreated OSA is associated with cognitive impairments and problems with mood, memory, and alertness. Researchers believe that sleep apnea may cause brain damage due to the long-term effects of chronic sleep deprivation, as well as oxygen deficiency and the breakdown of the blood-brain barrier.
26 Αυγ 2024 · When breathing is interrupted during sleep, the body experiences a drop in oxygen levels, known as hypoxia. This oxygen deprivation, coupled with the fragmented sleep patterns characteristic of sleep apnea, can have profound effects on brain health and cognitive function.
14 Απρ 2015 · The syndromic constellation of effects of obstructive sleep apnoea on the brain merit particular attention and are the focus of this Review.
3 Φεβ 2024 · Untreated obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) is associated with an increased risk of brain damage and neurological impairments. Research suggests that sleep apnea can affect various structures in the brain, including those responsible for memory, mood regulation, executive functioning, and attention.
8 Σεπ 2014 · Results show that participants with severe, untreated sleep apnea had a significant reduction in white matter fiber integrity in multiple brain areas. This brain damage was accompanied by impairments to cognition, mood and daytime alertness.
12 Μαΐ 2023 · A recent study published in Neurology suggests that obstructive sleep apnea and a reduction in deep sleep, also known as slow-wave sleep, were independently associated with an increase in...
Obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) is accompanied by structural brain changes, as shown by neuroimaging findings from several groups. These neural changes likely contribute to central nervous system dysfunction in OSA, including psychological and physiologic comorbidities.
