    Extractions: University of Pennsylvania School of Medicine PHILADELPHIA – Researchers at the University of Pennsylvania School of Medicine have provided, for the first time, a detailed look at the molecular pathways underlying sleep apnea, which affects more than twelve million Americans, according to the National Institutes of Health. Sleep apnea is a condition characterized by temporary breathing interruptions during sleep, in which disruptions can occur dozens or even hundreds of times a night. The team found that in an animal model of sleep apnea poorly folded proteins accumulate in one compartment of a muscle nerve cell, which, under certain conditions, tells a cell to heal itself or destroy itself. The findings appear in a recent issue of the Journal of Neuroscience. “Muscles relax as a normal part of sleep, causing the airway to close,” explains senior author Sigrid C. Veasey, MD, Associate Professor of Medicine, at the Penn Center for Sleep. “But in patients with sleep apnea, oxygen levels in cells drop too low, sending an arousal signal to wake by gasping for air. This happens all night long, so patients experience bad quality sleep. In addition to problems with sleepiness, subtle peripheral neural injury occurs.” In a mouse model of sleep apnea, the researchers found that motor neurons of the jaw and face had swollen endoplasmic reticula, the part of the cell where proteins get folded properly. They surmised that misfolded proteins accumulated as the endoplasmic reticula of mice were exposed to decreased oxygen and oxygen fluctuations during sleep over eight weeks. The involvement of the endoplasmic reticula has never been shown before in explaining the physiology of sleep apnea on a cellular level, says Veasey.

    Extractions: Linda Stone, one of my all-time favorite thinkers on the impact of technology on human life, has written a superb piece about what she's termed "email apnea" the phenomenon of holding your breath while you check and write email. Stone noticed recently that whenever she sat down to check email, she began, quite unconciously, to hold her breath. Then she noticed that other people were doing it, too: I observed others on computers and BlackBerries: in their offices, their homes, at cafes. The vast majority of people held their breath, or breathed very shallowly, especially when responding to email. I watched people on cell phones, talking and walking, and noticed that most were mouth-breathing and hyperventilating. Consider also, that for many, posture while seated at a computer can contribute to restricted breathing. As Stone points out, holding your breath a lot wreaks havoc in your body's normal balance of oxygen, carbon dioxide and nitric oxide. Among other things, it freaks you out by constantly triggering your fight-or-flight instinct; it also triggers the liver to "dump glucose and cholesterol into our blood, our heart rate to increase, our sense of satiety to be compromised, and our bodies to anticipate and resource for the physical activity that, historically, accompanied a physical fight or flight response." Stone hypothesizes that this may be a partial cause of today's increasing obesity rates.

Gatti, a Lawrence dentist, recently addressed the 190th Air National Guard Medical Squadron regarding oral appliances for the treatment of snoring and obstructive sleep apnea. The presentation by Gatti, a member of the American Academy of Dental Sleep Medicine, came as the American Academy of Sleep Medicine established new treatment parameters. While use of continuous positive airway pressure — commonly known as CPAP — remains the first line of treatment for patients with severe cases, the new parameters note that oral appliances may benefit some patients with airway obstruction, such as snoring patients who do not respond to losing weight or changing sleep positions. Obstructive sleep apnea, a medical condition affecting an estimated 18 million people in the U.S., can lead to severe daytime sleepiness, an increased risk of high blood pressure and higher rates of heart attack and stroke.

This interruption is caused by short (10-20 second) blocking of the upper airway. This blockage is caused by the short tissues at the back of the throat relaxing too much. Breathing interruptions can occur from five to 100 times per hour; fewer than five is considered normal. Is Sleep Apnea Dangerous?

Most people with sleep apnea have obstructive apnea, in which the person stops breathing during sleep due to airway blockage. Sufferers usually resume breathing within a few seconds, but periods of as long as sixty seconds are not uncommon in serious cases. It is more common amongst people who snore, who are obese, who consume alcohol, or who have anatomical abnormalities of the jaw or soft palate. While there are several natural remedies for sleep apnea, the specific approach depends on the cause. Aromatherapy, herbal medicine, homeopathy, yoga, and relaxation techniques have all been shown to help with sleep disorders. Natural remedies, combined with improvements in lifestyle, may improve your sleep.

    Extractions: Cure Sleep Apnea – Go for Natural Ways  ; Is there a natural way to cure sleep apnea? Before anything else, you must know what sleep apnea is, it is different from just plain snoring. Sleep apnea usually involves cessation of breath during sleep, and caused by partial/complete obstruction by pharyngeal structures of the airway passages. CPAP: A Sleep Apnea Appliance to Prevent Sleep Apnea ; Is there a big difference between snoring and sleep apnea? A person who snores should be able to make a distinction between these two. Snoring is the loud sound during sleep that a person makes but it doesn’t involve cessation of breathing. Sleep apnea on the other hand, is a breathing obstruction. A person with sleep apnea frequently wakes up many times at night just to regain breathing.

Indeed the successful use of CPAP requires no further intervention. However, CPAP is not for everyone. Some people cannot get adequate CPAP pressures to overcome their obstructive events. Certain patients find the side effects of CPAP therapy to be intolerable. For others, the thought of having to wear CPAP for an eternity is completely disagreeable. Surgery can successfully conclude the symptoms of obstructive sleep apnea and produce freedom from CPAP, especially for mild to moderate disease severity. The "state of the art" surgical plan for treating Obstructive Sleep Apnea (OSA) should consider all of the treatment options found in this web site. This overview is designed to help you and your physician to make a more informed decision about the role that surgery might play in the treatment of your obstructive sleep apnea.
