Some researchers focused on imaging study that describe pharyngeal morphology in patients with OSAS. Materials and methods: We report on the changes of upper airway volume in patient with OSAS before and after uvulopalatopharyngoplasty (UPPP) with the use of three-dimensional ... Read more

Possible effect of periodic limb movements during sleep on the sleepiness of patients with sleep disordered breathing

Our subjects included 233 male patients who visited our institute during the 25-month period between June 2012 and June ... Read more
