Undoubtedly, one of the most important elements of life on earth is oxygen. Aerobic organisms adapted to the 20.8% oxygen ratio in the atmosphere have survived even lower than this concentration by developing various defense mechanisms. The real question is whether high levels of oxygen in the
Background:Severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS- CoV-2) infection represents a pandemic emergency of dramatic proportions. The clinical course of SARS-CoV-2 infection often meets the criteria for acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS), with progressive severity ultimately
The FARAD MI will be a randomized, multicenter prospective study will be conducted. Patients with the diagnosis of ST-segment elevation acute myocardial infarction treated at the Sancta Maggiore Emergency Departments who have been thrombolyzed and aged up to 80 years will be included. After
Sleep breathing disorders are a frequent and serious health problem in the Polish population. Obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) is a common disorder. The essence of OSA is repeated episodes of airway obstruction that occur repeatedly during sleep, resulting in a decrease in the level of partial oxygen
Sleep apnea and coronary artery disease are prevalent and relevant diseases due to their morbidity and mortality. The mechanism by which sleep apnea leads to coronary artery disease remains unclear. It is known that intermittent hypoxia, the main characteristic of sleep apnea, leads to inflammation
Obstructive Sleep Apnea (OSA) is a well-known disorder of upper airways collapse during sleep time leading to oxygen desaturation, sleep fragmentation, tissue suffering and hypercapnia. The repeated airways collapse leads to a fall of blood saturation levels during sleep time and it is linked to
Safety of the dermal regeneration photosynthetic matrix (DRPM) will be conducted at the Departament of Plastic Surgery at Hospital del Salvador. This safety assessment represents the objetive 1 of this trial, and will be performed in 20 human patients (between 18-65 years old) without comorbidities,
200 children aged 2-18 years that will be referred to the Sleep Disorders Center for overnight polysomnography due to suspected sleep disordered breathing or PLMD will be recruited to the study during their first visit in the sleep clinic. During that study, an informed consent will be completed by
Coronary heart disease angina pectoris is a kind of heart disease caused by myocardial ischemia and anoxia caused by coronary atherosclerosis. It belongs to the category of "chest obstruction" and "heartache" in traditional Chinese medicine. One of its common pathogenesis is stagnation of Qi and
Cardiovascular disease, which is multifactorial and caused by complex interactions of genetic and environmental factors, represents the main cause of death all over the world. Traditional risk factors for coronary atherosclerosis include age, smoking, male gender, hypertension and diabetes. Newly
Background of the Project including Preliminary Observations Hypertensive disorders of pregnancy, including preeclampsia, complicate up to 10% of pregnancies worldwide, constituting one of the greatest causes of fetal growth restriction, preterm birth, low birth weight, perinatal mortality, and
Obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) is very common in middle aged adults. Using a polysomnography (PSG) derived definition, defined as an apnea hypopnea index (AHI) of >5, it occurs in 20-30 % of males and 10-15 % of females in North America. Various large epidemiological studies have established a close
Our previous studies indicate that epicardial fat, the visceral fat depot of the heart, plays a role in modulating the heart morphology and its function (Iacobellis et al 2005). Notably, no muscle fascia divides the epicardial fat and the myocardium and the two tissues share the same
According to the National Institute of Health, one in every twenty Americans over the age of 50 years old suffers from peripheral artery disease (PAD). PAD is a manifestation of systemic atherosclerosis and is specifically characterized by atherosclerotic blockages of the arteries in the legs. This
