Context: The aging of the Brazilian population poses new challenges for public health policies. Non-communicable chronic diseases (NCDs) accounted for 54.7% of deaths in Brazil in 2019. Cardiovascular and respiratory diseases are among the leading causes of mortality. Obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) affects about 33% of the adult population. OSA is the most common respiratory disease and se…
Sleep Disorders are increasingly common clinical conditions in our Society. Among these, we highlighted two of them: Obstructive Sleep Apnea (OSA) and short sleep duration (SSD). Previous studies suggested a positive association of sleep disorders with several cardiovascular diseases, including hypertension (HTN). Despite the advances in the area, several important issues remain poorly ex…
Obstructive Sleep Apnea (OSA) and sleep duration disturbances are very common medical conditions which affect not only the quality of life but also increases cardiovascular morbidity and mortality. The mechanisms by which these sleep disorders promote cardiovascular disease are still poorly explored, but it is conceivable that metabolic disregulation and the occurrence of atherosclerosis …
Obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) is recognized as an independent cardiometabolic diseases risk factor. The mechanisms underlying this relationship are possibly mediated by intermittent hypoxia and sleep fragmentation, landmark features of OSA. Recently, the role of the gut microbiome (GM) in this scenario has been highlighted. Preliminary studies suggest that these components of OSA promote …
Chronic kidney disease (CKD) is an important public health problem worldwide, not only due to the increase in the population's life expectancy, but also due to the increased exposure to several comorbidities that can influence CKD. In parallel to traditional risk factors, there is a growing interest in addressing and treating emerging conditions. One of these potential candidates is Obstr…
The acute cardiogenic pulmonary edema (ACPE) is a common condition in Emergency Units and it is associated with high hospital costs, high cardiovascular morbidity and mortality. In fact, it is estimated that the mortality rate of the ACPE is around 12 and 20% reaching 40% in the long term follow-up. Despite the advances in the treatment of potential risk factors for ACPE (such as the impr…
