Ontology highlight
ABSTRACT: Purpose
We aimed to evaluate sleep-related hypoventilation in multiple system atrophy (MSA) using polysomnography (PSG) with transcutaneous partial pressure of carbon dioxide (PtcCO2) monitoring.Methods
This prospective study included 34 patients with MSA. Motor and autonomic function, neuropsychological tests, PSG with PtcCO2 monitoring, and pulmonary function tests were performed. Sleep-related hypoventilation disorder (SRHD) was defined according to the International Classification of Sleep Disorders, third edition.Results
Nine (27%) of the 34 patients met the diagnostic criteria of SRHD. Twenty-nine (85%) patients had sleep-related breathing disorders based on an Apnea-Hypopnea Index of ≥ 5/h. The patients with MSA and SRHD had a higher arousal index (p = 0.017) and obstructive apnea index (p = 0.041) than those without SRHD. There was no difference in the daytime partial pressure of carbon dioxide in arterial blood or respiratory function between MSA patients with and without SRHD.Conclusion
Sleep-related hypoventilation may occur in patients with MSA even with a normal daytime partial pressure of carbon dioxide. This can be noninvasively detected by PSG with PtcCO2 monitoring. SRBD and sleep-related hypoventilation are common among patients with MSA, and clinicians should take this into consideration while evaluating and treating this population.

Project description:BackgroundHigh-flow nasal oxygenation is increasingly used during sedation procedures and general anesthesia in apneic patients. Transcutaneous CO2 (ptcCO2)-monitoring is used to monitor hypercapnia. This study investigated ptcCO2-monitoring during apneic oxygenation.MethodsWe included 100 patients scheduled for elective surgery under general anesthesia in this secondary analysis of a randomized controlled trial. Before surgery, we collected ptcCO2 measured by TCM4 and TCM5 monitors and arterial blood gas (ABG) measurements every two minutes during 15 minutes of apnea. Bland-Altman plots analyzed agreement between measurement slopes; linear mixed models estimated the different measuring method effect, and outlined differences in slope and offset between transcutaneous and arterial CO2 partial pressures.ResultsBland-Altman plots showed a bias in slope (95% confidence intervals) between ABG and TCM4-measurements of 0.05mmHg/min (-0.05 to 0.15), and limits of agreement were -0.88mmHg/min (-1.06 to -0.70) and 0.98mmHg/min (0.81 to 1.16). Bias between ABG and TCM5 was -0.14mmHg/min (-0.23 to -0.04), and limits of agreement were -0.98mmHg/min (-1.14 to -0.83) and 0.71mmHg/min (0.55 to 0.87). A linear mixed model (predicting the CO2-values) showed an offset between arterial and transcutaneous measurements of TCM4 (-15.2mmHg, 95%CI: -16.3 to -14.2) and TCM5 (-19.1mmHg, -20.1 to -18.0). Differences between the two transcutaneous measurements were statistically significant.ConclusionsSubstantial differences were found between the two transcutaneous measurement systems, and between them and ABG. Transcutaneous CO2 monitoring cannot replace arterial CO2-monitoring during apneic oxygenation. In clinical settings with rapidly changing CO2-values, arterial blood gas measurements are needed to reliably assess the CO2-partial pressure in blood.Trial registrationClinicalTrials.gov (NCT03478774).

Project description:PurposeThe present study aimed to investigate the correlation between transcutaneous carbon dioxide partial pressure (PtcCO2) and arterial carbon dioxide pressure (PaCO2) and the accuracy of PtcCO2 in predicting PaCO2 during laparoscopic surgery in pediatric patients.MethodsChildren aged 2-8 years with American Society of Anesthesiologists (ASA) class I or II who underwent laparoscopic surgery under general anesthesia were selected. After anesthesia induction and tracheal intubation, PtcCO2 was monitored, and radial arterial catheterization was performed for continuous pressure measurement. PaCO2, PtcCO2, and end-tidal carbon dioxide partial pressure (PetCO2) were measured before pneumoperitoneum, and 30, 60, and 90 min after pneumoperitoneum, respectively. The correlation and agreement between PtcCO2 and PaCO2, PetCO2, and PaCO2 were evaluated.ResultsA total of 32 patients were eventually enrolled in this study, resulting in 128 datasets. The linear regression equations were: PtcCO2 = 7.89 + 0.82 × PaCO2 (r2 = 0.70, P < 0.01); PetCO2 = 9.87 + 0.64 × PaCO2 (r2 = 0.69, P < 0.01). The 95% limits of agreement (LOA) of PtcCO2 - PaCO2 average was 0.66 ± 4.92 mmHg, and the 95% LOA of PetCO2 - PaCO2 average was -4.4 ± 4.86 mmHg. A difference of ≤ 5 mmHg was noted between PtcCO2 and PaCO2 in 122/128 samples and between PetCO2 and PaCO2 in 81/128 samples (P < 0.01).ConclusionIn pediatric laparoscopic surgery, a close correlation was established between PtcCO2 and PaCO2. Compared to PetCO2, PtcCO2 can estimate PaCO2 accurately and could be used as an auxiliary monitoring indicator to optimize anesthesia management for laparoscopic surgery in children; however, it is not a substitute for PetCO2.Registration number of chinese clinical trial registryChiCTR2100043636.

Project description:BackgroundChronic lung disease remains a burden for extremely preterm infants. The changes in ventilation over time and optimal ventilatory management remains unknown. Newer, non-invasive technologies provide insight into these patterns.MethodsThis single-center prospective cohort study enrolled infants ≤32 0/7 weeks. We obtained epochs of transcutaneous carbon dioxide (TcCO2) measurements twice each week to describe the pattern of hypercarbia throughout their hospitalization.ResultsPatterns of hypercarbia varied based on birth gestational age and post-menstrual age (PMA) (p = 0.03), regardless of respiratory support. Infants receiving the most respiratory support had values 16-21 mmHg higher than those on room air (p < 0.001). Infants born at the youngest gestational ages had the greatest total change but the rate of change was slower (p = 0.049) compared to infants born at later gestational ages. All infants had TcCO2 values stabilize by 31-33 weeks PMA, when values were not significantly different compared to discharge. No rebound was observed when infants weaned off invasive support.ConclusionsHypercarbia improves as infants approached 31-33 weeks PMA. Hypercarbia was the highest in the most immature infants and improved with age and growth despite weaning respiratory support.ImpactThis study describes the evolution of hypercarbia as very preterm infants grow and develop. The pattern of ventilation is significantly different depending on the gestational age at birth and post-menstrual age. Average transcutaneous carbon dioxide (TCO2) decreased over time as infants became more mature despite weaning respiratory support. This improvement was most significant in infants born at the lowest gestational ages.

Project description:Study objectivesTo validate a contact-free system designed to achieve maximal comfort during long-term sleep monitoring, together with high monitoring accuracy.MethodsWe used a contact-free monitoring system (EarlySense, Ltd., Israel), comprising an under-the-mattress piezoelectric sensor and a smartphone application, to collect vital signs and analyze sleep. Heart rate (HR), respiratory rate (RR), body movement, and calculated sleep-related parameters from the EarlySense (ES) sensor were compared to data simultaneously generated by the gold standard, polysomnography (PSG). Subjects in the sleep laboratory underwent overnight technician-attended full PSG, whereas subjects at home were recorded for 1 to 3 nights with portable partial PSG devices. Data were compared epoch by epoch.ResultsA total of 63 subjects (85 nights) were recorded under a variety of sleep conditions. Compared to PSG, the contact-free system showed similar values for average total sleep time (TST), % wake, % rapid eye movement, and % non-rapid eye movement sleep, with 96.1% and 93.3% accuracy of continuous measurement of HR and RR, respectively. We found a linear correlation between TST measured by the sensor and TST determined by PSG, with a coefficient of 0.98 (R = 0.87). Epoch-by-epoch comparison with PSG in the sleep laboratory setting revealed that the system showed sleep detection sensitivity, specificity, and accuracy of 92.5%, 80.4%, and 90.5%, respectively.ConclusionsTST estimates with the contact-free sleep monitoring system were closely correlated with the gold-standard reference. This system shows good sleep staging capability with improved performance over accelerometer-based apps, and collects additional physiological information on heart rate and respiratory rate.

Project description:Study objectivesNocturnal blood pressure (BP) profile shows characteristic abnormalities in OSA, namely acute postapnea BP surges and nondipping BP. These abnormal BP profiles provide prognostic clues indicating increased cardiovascular disease risk. We developed a deep neural network model to perform computerized analysis of polysomnography data and predict nocturnal BP profile.MethodsWe analyzed concurrently performed polysomnography and noninvasive beat-to-beat BP measurement with a deep neural network model to predict nocturnal BP profiles from polysomnography data in 13 patients with severe OSA.ResultsA good correlation was noted between measured and predicted postapnea systolic and diastolic BP (Pearson r ≥ .75). Moreover, Bland-Altman analyses showed good agreement between the 2 values. Continuous systolic and diastolic BP prediction by the deep neural network model was also well correlated with measured BP values (Pearson r ≥ .83).ConclusionsWe developed a deep neural network model to predict nocturnal BP profile from clinical polysomnography signals and provide a potential prognostic tool in OSA. Validation of the model in larger samples and examination of its utility in predicting CVD risk in future studies is warranted.

Project description:Description The regional impact of COVID-19 on atmospheric carbon dioxide is observable from space. Activity reductions in early 2020 due to the coronavirus disease 2019 pandemic led to unprecedented decreases in carbon dioxide (CO2) emissions. Despite their record size, the resulting atmospheric signals are smaller than and obscured by climate variability in atmospheric transport and biospheric fluxes, notably that related to the 2019–2020 Indian Ocean Dipole. Monitoring CO2 anomalies and distinguishing human and climatic causes thus remain a new frontier in Earth system science. We show that the impact of short-term regional changes in fossil fuel emissions on CO2 concentrations was observable from space. Starting in February and continuing through May, column CO2 over many of the world’s largest emitting regions was 0.14 to 0.62 parts per million less than expected in a pandemic-free scenario, consistent with reductions of 3 to 13% in annual global emissions. Current spaceborne technologies are therefore approaching levels of accuracy and precision needed to support climate mitigation strategies with future missions expected to meet those needs.

Project description:Mitochondria play an essential role in cellular energy metabolism and apoptosis. Previous studies have demonstrated that decreased mitochondrial biogenesis is associated with cancer progression. In mitochondrial biogenesis, peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor gamma coactivator-1 alpha (PGC-1α) regulates the activities of multiple nuclear receptors and transcription factors involved in mitochondrial proliferation. Previously, we showed that overexpression of PGC-1α leads to mitochondrial proliferation and induces apoptosis in human malignant fibrous histiocytoma (MFH) cells in vitro. We also demonstrated that transcutaneous application of carbon dioxide (CO(2)) to rat skeletal muscle induces PGC-1α expression and causes an increase in mitochondrial proliferation. In this study, we utilized a murine model of human MFH to determine the effect of transcutaneous CO(2) exposure on PGC-1α expression, mitochondrial proliferation and cellular apoptosis. PGC-1α expression was evaluated by quantitative real-time PCR, while mitochondrial proliferation was assessed by immunofluorescence staining and the relative copy number of mitochondrial DNA (mtDNA) was assessed by real-time PCR. Immunofluorescence staining and DNA fragmentation assays were used to examine mitochondrial apoptosis. We also evaluated the expression of mitochondrial apoptosis related proteins, such as caspases, cytochorome c and Bax, by immunoblot analysis. We show that transcutaneous application of CO(2) induces PGC-1α expression, and increases mitochondrial proliferation and apoptosis of tumor cells, significantly reducing tumor volume. Proteins involved in the mitochondrial apoptotic cascade, including caspase 3 and caspase 9, were elevated in CO(2) treated tumors compared to control. We also observed an enrichment of cytochrome c in the cytoplasmic fraction and Bax protein in the mitochondrial fraction of CO(2) treated tumors, highlighting the involvement of mitochondria in apoptosis. These data indicate that transcutaneous application of CO(2) may represent a novel therapeutic tool in the treatment of human MFH.

Project description:Study objectivesTo identify the role of end-tidal carbon dioxide (EtCO2) monitoring during polysomnography in evaluation of children with obstructive sleep apnea syndrome (OSAS), including the correlation of EtCO2 with other measures of OSAS and prediction of changes in cognition and behavior after adenotonsillectomy.DesignAnalysis of screening and endpoint data from the Childhood Adenotonsillectomy Trial, a randomized, controlled, multicenter study comparing early adenotonsillectomy (eAT) to watchful waiting/supportive care (WWSC) in children with OSAS.SettingMultisite clinical referral settings.ParticipantsChildren, ages 5.0 to 9.9 y with suspected sleep apnea.InterventionseAT or WWSC.Measurements and resultsQuality EtCO2 waveforms were present for ≥ 75% of total sleep time (TST) in 876 of 960 (91.3%) screening polysomnograms. Among the 322 children who were randomized, 55 (17%) met pediatric criteria for hypoventilation. The mean TST with EtCO2 > 50 mmHg was modestly correlated with apnea-hypopnea index (AHI) (r = 0.33; P < 0.0001) and with oxygen saturation ≤ 92% (r = 0.26; P < 0.0001). After adjusting for AHI, obesity, and other factors, EtCO2 > 50 mmHg was higher in African American children than others. The TST with EtCO2 > 50 mmHg decreased significantly more after eAT than WWSC. In adjusted analyses, baseline TST with EtCO2 > 50 mmHg did not predict postoperative changes in cognitive and behavioral measurements.ConclusionsAmong children with suspected obstructive sleep apnea syndrome, overnight end-tidal carbon dioxide (EtCO2) levels are weakly to modestly correlated with other polysomnographic indices and therefore provide independent information on hypoventilation. EtCO2 levels improve with adenotonsillectomy but are not as responsive as AHI and do not provide independent prediction of cognitive or behavioral response to surgery.Clinical trial registrationChildhood Adenotonsillectomy Study for Children with OSAS (CHAT).

Project description:Squamous cell carcinoma (SCC) is the main histological type of oral cancer. Its growth rate and incidence of metastasis to regional lymph nodes is influenced by various factors, including hypoxic conditions. We have previously reported that transcutaneous CO2 induces mitochondrial apoptosis and decreases lung metastasis by reoxygenating sarcoma cells. However, previous studies have not determined the sequential mechanism by which transcutaneous CO2 suppresses growth of epithelial tumors, including SCCs. Moreover, there is no report that transcutaneous CO2 suppresses lymphogenous metastasis using human cell lines xenografts. In this study, we examined the effects of transcutaneous CO2 on cancer apoptosis and lymphogenous metastasis using human SCC xenografts. Our results showed that transcutaneous CO2 affects expressions of PGC-1? and TFAM and protein levels of cleavage products of caspase-3, caspase-9 and PARP, which relatives mitochondrial apoptosis. They also showed that transcutaneous CO2 significantly inhibits SCC tumor growth and affects expressions of HIF-1?, VEGF, MMP-2 and MMP-9, which play essential roles in tumor angiogenesis, invasion and metastasis. In conclusion, transcutaneous CO2 suppressed tumor growth, increased mitochondrial apoptosis and decreased the number of lymph node metastasis in human SCC by decreasing intra-tumoral hypoxia and suppressing metastatic potential with no observable effect in vivo. Our findings indicate that transcutaneous CO2 could be a novel therapeutic tool for treating human SCC.

Project description:This study evaluated sleep and respiratory abnormalities, and their relationship with seizures, in adults with developmental and epileptic encephalopathies (DEEs). We studied consecutive adults with DEEs undergoing inpatient video-EEG monitoring and concurrent polysomnography between December 2011 and July 2022. Thirteen patients with DEEs were included (median age: 31 years, range: 20-50; 69.2% female): Lennox-Gastaut syndrome (n = 6), Lennox-Gastaut syndrome-like phenotype (n = 2), Landau-Kleffner syndrome (n = 1), epilepsy with myoclonic-atonic seizures (n = 1), and unclassified DEEs (n = 3). Sleep architecture was often fragmented by epileptiform discharges and seizures resulting in arousals (median arousal index: 29.0 per h, range: 5.1-65.3). Moderate-to-severe obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) was observed in seven patients (53.8%). Three patients (23.1%) had tonic seizures that frequently occurred with central apnea; one met criteria for mild central sleep apnea. Of the patients with tonic seizures, two had other identifiable seizure manifestations, but in one patient, central apnea was commonly the only discernable seizure manifestation. Polysomnography during video-EEG is an effective diagnostic tool in detecting sleep and seizure-related respiratory abnormalities. Clinically significant OSA may increase the risk of comorbid cardiovascular disease and premature mortality. Treatment of epilepsy may improve sleep quality, and conversely, improved sleep, may decrease seizure burden.
