Abstract Introduction The impact of vitamin D on human health including sleep has been well described in adults. Its deficiency has been associated with multiple sleep disorders such as decrease in sleep duration, worsening of sleep quality and even obstructive sleep apnea. Such correlation is less evident in pediatric population. In the current study, we examined the relationship between sleep architecture and vitamin D status in children referred to a sleep clinic. Methods Retrospective-cohort study in a tertiary care children’s hospital over a one-year period. Children who underwent an in-laboratory-overnight-polysomnogram and had a 25-hydroxy vitamin D level (25-OH-vitD) obtained within 120 days of the sleep study were included. Patients with obstructive or central sleep apnea were excluded. Data from polysomnograms (PSG) and Pediatric Sleep Questionnaires (PSQ) were collected and analyzed. Results A total of 39 patients were included in the study with mean age of 6.6 years and 46% females. Twenty (51%) patients had vitamin D deficiency (25-OH-vitD less than 30 ng/ml). Children with vitamin D deficiency had less total sleep time (470.3 minutes +/-35.6 vs 420.3 minutes +/-61.7, p=0.004) and poorer sleep efficiency (91.9 % +/-5.6 vs 84.5 % +/-9.5, p=0.015) compared to vitamin D sufficient children. In addition, vitamin D deficient children had later weekday bedtimes (21:02 +/- 1:01 vs 20:19 +/- 0:55, p=0.037) and later weekend bedtimes (21:42 +/- 0:59 vs 20:47 +/- 1:08, p=0.016) with tendency for later wake up time that did not reach statistical significance. The remainder of polysomnographic findings and PSQ data were not different between the two groups. Conclusion Vitamin D deficiency in children is associated with objectively measured decreased sleep duration and poorer sleep efficiency. Furthermore, vitamin D deficiency was associated with delayed bedtimes, suggesting that vitamin D may influence circadian rhythm. Future prospective studies in children would be helpful in validating the effect of vitamin D on sleep. Support None

Abstract Introduction Several studies indicated there is an association between central sleep apnea (CSA) and atrial fibrillation (AF) in older populations. However, few studies assessed the impact of ethnicity on the association. We assessed the hypothesis that ethnicity modifies the association between CSA and AF in older men. Methods We did a cross-sectional analysis using two population studies of Japanese-American (JA) and White-American (WA) men. The Kuakini Honolulu-Asia Aging Study (HAAS) is a longitudinal cohort study of JA men living in Hawaii. Sleep data were collected between 1999–2000. The Osteoporotic Fractures in Men (Mr.OS) Sleep Study was conducted between 2003–2005 on the continental U.S. The majority of Mr.OS participants were WA. We selected 79–90 year old males, who had overnight polysomnography from both studies. Total participants were 690 JA and 871 WA men. Obstructive apnea-hypopnea index (OAHI) was the measure of the number of obstructive apneas and hypopneas with >4% oxygen desaturation. Additionally, the central apnea index (CAI) was the measure of the number of central apneas. Obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) was categorized as none (OAHI <5), mild (OAHI 5–14), moderate (OAHI 15–29), and severe (OAHI>=30). CSA was defined by CAI>=5. Cheyne-Stokes breathing (CSB) was defined as a minimum consecutive 5–10 minute period of a crescendo-decrescendo respiratory pattern associated with CSA. A board-certified physician confirmed AF by single lead electrocardiography of polysomnography. Results The prevalence of AF was 5.7% in JA and 9.1% in WA. The prevalence of CSA and CSB in WA were higher than in JA (11.5% vs 6.5% and 5.7% vs 3.3%, respectively). Conversely, the prevalence of severe OSA in JA (20.7%) was higher than in WA (11.8%). In multivariable-adjusted logistic regression models, CSA was associated with higher odds of AF, and the association was stronger in JA [Odds Ratio (OR)=4.77, 95% confidence interval (CI): 1.95–11.64] than in WA (OR=2.05, 95% CI: 1.07–3.94). CSB showed similar trends as CSA. In contrast, the severity of OSA was not significantly associated with AF in either ethnicity. Conclusion Ethnicity modifies the association between CSA and AF. In older JA and WA men, screening for CSA might be important to prevent AF. Support (if any):

The Impact

Background: Vitamin D exerts multiple pleiotropic effects beyond its role in calcium-phosphate metabolism. Growing evidence suggests an association between hypovitaminosis D and sleep disorders, thus increasing the interest in the role of this vitamin in the regulatory mechanisms of the sleep-wake cycle. Objective: The study aimed to explore and summarize the current knowledge about the role of vitamin D in sleep regulation and the impact of vitamin D deficiency on sleep disorders. Methods: The main regulatory mechanisms of vitamin D on sleep are explained in this study. The literature was scanned to identify clinical trials and correlation studies showing an association between vitamin D deficiency and sleep disorders. Results: Vitamin D receptors and the enzymes that control their activation and degradation are expressed in several areas of the brain involved in sleep regulation. Vitamin D is also involved in the pathways of production of Melatonin, the hormone involved in the regulation of human circadian rhythms and sleep. Furthermore, vitamin D can affect sleep indirectly through non-specific pain disorders, correlated with alterations in sleep quality, such as restless legs syndrome and obstructive sleep apnea syndrome. Conclusions: : Vitamin D has both a direct and an indirect role in the regulation of sleep. Although vitamin D deficiency has been associated to sleep disorders, there is still scant evidence to concretely support the role of vitamin D supplementation in the prevention or treatment of sleep disturbances; indeed, more intervention studies are needed to better clarify these aspects.

Introduction Sleep duration is significantly associated with cardiovascular disease risk factors such as hypertension, diabetes, and obesity in adults at low risk for obstructive sleep apnea. Although it is known that apnea increases the risk for sudden cardiac death, it is not known whether adults with short sleep duration independent of apnea have a higher risk for cardiac arrhythmias Hypothesis We tested the hypothesis that sleep duration in adults at low risk for obstructive sleep apnea would be associated with ECG measures that are known risk factors for ventricular arrhythmias. Methods The Chicago Area Sleep Study recruited 610 participants via commercially available telephone listings. Participants were screened using in-home apnea detection equipment (ApneaLinkTM) for one night to exclude subjects with apnea/hypopnea index ≥ 15. Participants wore wrist actigraphs for 7 days to objectively determine sleep duration. A 10-minute 12-lead ECG was recorded for each subject. Standard measures of heart rate, PR interval, and QTc interval were obtained along with markers of ventricular repolarization, Tpeak to Tend interval (Tpe) and spatial QRS-T angle. Signal-averaged ECG analysis was performed to measure filtered QRS duration (fQRSd), RMS voltage of terminal 40 ms (RMS), and duration of terminal QRS signals <40μV (LAS). Participants with atrial fibrillation, >20% ectopic beats and those using antihypertensive and sleep medications were excluded from analysis. The effect of sleep duration on the ECG parameters was estimated using a multiple linear regression model adjusting for demographics (sex, age, and race) and cardiovascular risk factors (BMI, hypertension, coronary heart disease, and diabetes). Results ECGs from a total of 504 participants (200 male, 48±8 years old) were analyzed. Mean sleep duration was 7±1 hrs, heart rate was 64±9 bpm, PR interval was 165±18 ms, and QTc interval was 424±23 ms. Mean Tpe interval was 83±14 ms and spatial QRS-T angle was 29±26 deg. The signal-averaged ECG measures of fQRSd, RMS, and LAS had mean values of 78±12 ms, 58±34 μV, and 24±9 ms, respectively. In an unadjusted model, there was a borderline association between sleep duration and QTc (β=0.004 ms/hr, SE=0.0023, p=0.08). However, that association was no longer significant following adjustment with demographics and cardiovascular risk factors. No other ECG measures were associated with sleep duration. Conclusions In a population at low risk of obstructive sleep apnea, ECG-based measures of cardiovascular risks were not associated with sleep duration. Previously reported associations between short sleep and cardiovascular events may not be arrhythmic in origin.

Abstract Introduction Positive airway pressure-induced upper airway obstruction has been reported with the treatment of obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) using continuous positive airway pressure (CPAP) along with an oronasal interface. Here we describe a case of persistent treatment emergent central sleep apnea (TECSA) inadequately treated with adaptive servo ventilation (ASV), with an airflow pattern suggestive of ASV-induced upper airway obstruction. Report of Case A 32-year-old male, with severe OSA (apnea hypopnea index: 52.4) and no other significant past medical history, was treated with CPAP and required higher pressures during titration sleep studies to alleviate obstructive events, despite a Mallampati Class II airway and a normal body mass index. Drug-Induced Sleep Endoscopy (DISE) showed a complete velopharynx and oropharynx anterior posterior (AP) collapse, long soft palate, which improved with neck extension. CPAP therapy, however, did not result in any symptomatic benefit and compliance reports revealed high residual AHI and persistent TECSA. He underwent an ASV titration sleep study up to a final setting of expiratory positive airway pressure 9 cm H2O, pressure support 6-15 cm H2O (auto-rate), with a full-face mask due to high oral leak associated with the nasal interface. The ASV device detected central apneas and provided mandatory breaths, but did not capture the thorax or abdomen, despite normal mask pressure tracings. Several such apneas occurred, with significant oxyhemoglobin desaturation. Conclusion We postulate that the ASV failure to correct central sleep apnea as evidenced by the absence of thoracoabdominal inspiratory effort, occurred due to ASV-induced upper airway obstruction. Further treatment options for this ASV phenomenon are to pursue an ASV-assisted DISE and determine the effectiveness of adjunctive therapy including neck extension, nasal mask with a mouth closing device and a mandibular assist device.

Objective Mild obstructive sleep apnea (OSA), particularly in young children, is often treated with observation. However, there is little evidence regarding the outcomes with this approach. Our aim was to assess the impact of observation on sleep for children aged <3 years with mild OSA. Study Design Case-control study. Setting Pediatric tertiary care center. Methods We reviewed cases of children (<3 years old) diagnosed with mild OSA (obstructive apnea-hypopnea index, 1-5 events/h) who were treated with observation between 2012 and 2017 and had at least 2 polysomnograms performed 3 to 12 months apart. Demographic data and comorbid diagnoses were collected. Results Twenty-six children met inclusion criteria; their median age was 7.2 months (95% CI, 1.2-22.8). Nine (35%) were female and 24 (92%) were White. Their median body mass index percentile was 39 (95% CI, 1-76). Comorbidities included cardiac disease (42.3%), laryngomalacia (42.3%), allergies (34.6%), reactive airway disease (23.1%), and prematurity (7.7%). The obstructive apnea-hypopnea index significantly decreased from 2.7 events/h (95% CI, 1-4.5) to 1.3 (95% CI, 0-4.5; P = .013). There was no significant improvement in median saturation nadir (baseline, 86%; P = .76) or median time with end-tidal carbon dioxide >50 mm Hg (baseline, 0 minutes; P = .34). OSA resolved in 8 patients (31%) and worsened in 1 (3.8%). Only race was a significant predictor of resolution per regression analysis; however, only 2 non-White children were included. Conclusion In our cohort, resolution of mild OSA occurred in 31% of patients treated with 3 to 12 months of observation. The presence of laryngomalacia, asthma, and allergies did not affect resolution. Larger studies are needed to better identify factors (including race) associated with persistent OSA and optimal timing of intervention for these children. Level of Evidence 4.

ObjectiveLaryngomalacia has been reported to contribute to the severity of obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) in children. It is unclear if surgical treatment of laryngomalacia improves polysomnography (PSG) outcomes in these patients. The objective of this study is to report the impact of supraglottoplasty on PSG parameters in children with laryngomalacia-related OSA.Study DesignRetrospective case series.SettingTertiary care medical center.Subjects and MethodsHistorical cohort study of consecutive children with laryngomalacia who underwent supraglottoplasty and who had undergone overnight PSG before and after surgery.ResultsForty-one patients were included in the final analysis: 22 (53.6%) were male, and 19 (46.3%) were female. The mean ± SEM age of patients at preoperative PSG was 1.3 ± 0.89 years (range, 0.003-2.9). In entire cohort, the mean obstructive apnea-hypopnea index score was reduced from 26.6 events/h before supraglottoplasty to 7.3 events/h after surgery ( P = .003). Respiratory disturbance index was reduced from 27.3 events/h before supraglottoplasty to 7.8 events/h after surgery ( P = .003). The percentage of REM sleep decreased from 30.1% ± 2.4 to 24.8% ± 1.3 ( P = .04). Sleep efficiency was improved ( P = .05).ConclusionOverall, supraglottoplasty significantly improved several PSG outcomes in children with laryngomalacia. However, mild to moderate OSA was still present postoperatively in most children. This suggested a multifactorial cause for OSA in this population.

Objective: To elucidate the independent associations of obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) and sleep duration (SD) as well as the potential inflammatory and metabolic mediators on carotid intima-media thickness (CIMT) in a large cohort of adults. Approach and Results: Consecutive participants from the ELSA-Brasil performed a clinical evaluation, sleep study, 1-week actigraphy for defining SD and CIMT using standard techniques. Gamma regression models were used to explore the association between OSA and SD with CIMT. Mediation analysis was performed using the mediation R package. A total of 2009 participants were included in the main analysis. As compared with no OSA (apnea-hypopnea index [AHI] <5 events/hour; n=613), patients with mild (AHI, 5–14.9; n=741), moderate (AHI, 15–29.9; n=389), and severe OSA (AHI ≥30 events/hour; n=266) presented a progressive CIMT increase (0.690 [0.610–0.790], 0.760 [0.650–0.890], 0.810 [0.700–0.940], and 0.820 [0.720–0.958] mm; P <0.001). In contrast, CIMTs were similar for those with SD <6 hours (0.760 [0.650–0.888]), 6 to 8 hours (0.750 [0.640–0.880]) and >8 hours (0.740 [0.670–0.900]). All forms of OSA were independently associated with CIMT (mild: β: 0.019, SE 0.008; P =0.022; moderate: β: 0.025, SE 0.011; P =0.022; severe OSA: β: 0.040, SE 0.013; P =0.002). Moreover, the association of AHI with CIMT was mediated by increased C-reactive protein and triglycerides ( P <0.01). SD did not interact with OSA in the association with CIMT. Conclusions: OSA is independently associated with increased CIMT in a dose-response relationship. This association is partially mediated by inflammation and dyslipidemia. In contrast, SD is not associated nor interacted with OSA to increase CIMT.
