Abstract
INTRODUCTION Obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) is a common sleep-related breathing disorder that is associated with increased risk of cardiovascular disease. The main interest of this clinical review is to discuss the cardiovascular consequences of OSA with a special focus on left ventricular (LV) function and structure, arterial stiffness and atrial fibrillation. AREA COVERED We present an overview of the definition, prevalence, and risk factors of OSA and outline the association between OSA and cardiovascular complications. We then briefly discuss echocardiographic assessment in OSA with focus on the left atrium and LV. Finally, we highlight the importance of adherence to continuous positive airway pressure (CPAP) therapy with regard to reducing the risk of cardiovascular disease. EXPERT COMMENTARY Although OSA has a strong association with cardiovascular complications, it is often underdiagnosed and undertreated. Patients with resistant hypertension and atrial fibrillation with poor therapeutic success after cardioversion or catheter ablation should be more often screened for OSA. Patients with nocturnal adverse cardiovascular events (stroke, arrhythmias, angina, coronary events) should be closely assessed with regard to OSA, and if confirmed, timely treated by lifestyle modification, CPAP, and aggressive antihypertensive treatment. Adherence to CPAP in OSA patients is essential in terms of reducing the risk of cardiovascular events.

Abstract
The endothelium, inner layer of blood vessels, constitutes a metabolically active paracrine, endocrine, and autocrine organ, able to sense the neighboring environment and exert a variety of biological functions important to preserve the health of vasculature, tissues, and organs. Sphingolipids are both fundamental structural components of the eukaryotic membranes and signaling molecules regulating a variety of biological functions. Ceramide and sphingosine-1-phosphate (S1P), bioactive sphingolipids, have emerged as important regulators of cardiovascular functions in health and disease. In this review we discuss recent insights into the role of ceramide and S1P biosynthesis and signaling in regulating endothelial cell functions, in health and diseases. We also highlight advances into the mechanisms regulating serine palmitoyltransferase, the first and rate-limiting enzyme of de novo sphingolipid biosynthesis, with an emphasis on its inhibitors, ORMDL and NOGO-B. Understanding the molecular mechanisms regulating the sphingolipid de novo biosynthesis may provide the foundation for therapeutic modulation of this pathway in a variety of conditions, including cardiovascular diseases, associated with derangement of this pathway.

Abstract
PURPOSE To evaluate the association between non-dipper blood pressure pattern and subconjunctival hemorrhage (SCH). METHODS Twenty-seven consecutive patients with nocturnal SCH and 27 age, sex-matched controls were enrolled. Demographic, blood parameters, office blood pressure measurements, 24-h ambulatory blood pressure monitoring (ABPM) were evaluated. RESULTS Mean diastolic blood pressure (DBP) for nighttime (65.03 ± 7.1 vs. 70.78 ± 10.5, p: 0.22), mean heart rate for nighttime (64.54 ± 8.26 vs. 69.93 ± 9.85, p: 0.034), Minimum Systolic Blood pressure(SBP) and DBP values for nighttime (92.44 ± 9.72 vs. 99.44 ± 10.66, p:0.015 and 51.15 ± 8.31 vs. 57.7 ± 11.2, p: 0.018) were higher, nocturnal fall ratio of SBP and DBP were significantly lower in the SCH ( + ) group compared to SCH (-) group (5.38 ± 8.39 vs. 10.34 ± 6.08, p: 0.016 and 4.26 ± 8.92 vs. 13.78 ± 6.97, p < 0001 respectively). Ten patients (37%) in the SCH (-) group and 18 patients (66.7%) in the SCH ( + ) group were non-dippers (p: 0.029). Mean daytime SBP and DBP were higher compared to office measurements of 4 patients (14.8%) in the SCH (-) group and 11 patients (40.7%) in the SCH ( + ) group (p: 0.033). CONCLUSION SCH had a strong association with non-dipper blood pressure pattern, higher nocturnal heart rate and masked hypertension which are precursors of myocardial infarction, stroke and renal failure. So, SCH should be considered as a clue for serious diseases such as coronary artery disease, myocardial infarction, stroke and patients should be evaluated for ABPM.

J Pers Med 2021; 11:jpm11121371. [PMID: 34945843 PMCID: PMC8704210 DOI: 10.3390/jpm11121371] [Citation(s) in RCA: 1] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.3] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 11/12/2021] [Revised: 12/06/2021] [Accepted: 12/13/2021] [Indexed: 01/31/2023] Open
Abstract
Objective: Several epidemiological studies suggest that the preservation of the physiological circadian rhythm of blood pressure or its disruption affects the extent of the organ damage developed by the patient. If we classify the circadian rhythm of blood pressure into four nocturnal profiles, significant differences emerge in terms of organ damage burden and prognosis: reverse dippers have the worst prognosis while dippers and mild dippers fall into an intermediate risk range. The risk profile of extreme dippers is still debated, and the available data are very conflicting and inconclusive. Starting from this gap of knowledge, we aimed to evaluate, retrospectively, in a cohort of hypertensive subjects, the degree of cardiac involvement in relation to the different nocturnal blood pressure profiles. Methods: We retrospectively evaluated 900 patients with essential hypertension, of whom 510 met our study criteria. We graded the 510 patients in relation to the percentage of reduction in mean systolic blood pressure (SBP) at night-time compared with day-time, considering this as a continuous variable, and then compared the extreme quintiles with each other and with the middle quintile (considered as reference). Results: Patients with less (or no) reduction in nocturnal SBP (reverse dipper) showed a higher level of organ damage and comorbidities. With regard to echocardiographic indexes, patients with maximum nocturnal pressure reduction (extreme dipper) showed a lower level of remodeling and/or impairment of E/e’ ratio, Right Atrium Area, Basal Right Ventricular Diameter, Inferior Vena Cava Average Diameter, and Tricuspidal Anular Plane Systolic Excursion compared also with hypertensive patients with a physiological nocturnal pressure reduction, even after correction for the main confounders. Conclusions: These data suggest that extreme dippers may constitute the subgroup of hypertensive patients with the lowest 24-h pressure load and, therefore, less cardiac remodeling.

Front Cardiovasc Med 2021; 8:755403. [PMID: 34912861 PMCID: PMC8666540 DOI: 10.3389/fcvm.2021.755403] [Citation(s) in RCA: 8] [Impact Index Per Article: 2.7] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 08/08/2021] [Accepted: 11/04/2021] [Indexed: 12/22/2022] Open
Abstract
Background: Non-dipper hypertension is often characterized by a blunted decrease of nocturnal blood pressure (BP) and is associated with increased risk of target organ damage and cardiovascular (CV) events, while the optimal treatment strategy is yet to be established. This trial was designed to evaluate whether nocturnal BP reduction and arterial stiffness improvement differ from antihypertensive agents and time of administration. Methods: Young and middle-aged adults (18-65 years) with non-dipper hypertension were randomly assigned to nifedipine GITS (gastrointestinal therapeutic system) 30 mg or amlodipine besylate 5 mg once daily for 8 weeks, either taken in the morning or at night. Dose was doubled at 4-week if BP is not at goal. Twenty-four hour ambulatory BP monitoring (ABPM) and arterial stiffness were evaluated before and after 8 weeks of pharmacotherapy. The primary efficacy measure was the average nighttime systolic BP reduction. Results: A total of 98 non-dipper hypertensive patients (mean age 46.3 years) were randomized during Dec, 2016 and Dec, 2020, of whom 72 (73%) patients completed all ABPM and follow-up evaluations. Nighttime systolic BP significantly reduced at 8 weeks vs. baseline with nifedipine GITS or amlodipine, irrespective of dosing at nighttime (-9.9 vs -9.9 mmHg, P > 0.05) or daytime (-11.5 vs. -10.9 mmHg, P > 0.05). No difference was seen between these two agents, when combining the data of nighttime and daytime dosing together (-10.8 vs. -10.5 mmHg, respectively, P = 0.898). Daytime, 24-h systolic BP, diastolic BP at different time and pulse wave velocity reduced significantly and comparably, and recovery of dipping rhythm were similar among groups. Conclusion: Nighttime dosing of long-acting antihypertensive preparations, nifedipine GITS or amlodipine demonstrated similar effects on nocturnal BP reduction, dipping rhythm restoration and arterial elasticity improvement in younger subjects with non-dipper hypertension. These effects were comparable with morning dosing.

Abstract
Background Most of the circulating sphingosine-1-phosphate (S1P) is bound to ApoM (apolipoprotein M) of high-density lipoprotein (HDL) and mediates many beneficial effects of HDL on the vasculature via G protein-coupled S1P receptors. HDL-bound S1P is decreased in atherosclerosis, myocardial infarction, and diabetes mellitus. In addition to being the target, the endothelium is a source of S1P, which is transported outside of the cells by Spinster-2, contributing to circulating S1P as well as to local signaling. Mice lacking endothelial S1P receptor 1 are hypertensive, suggesting a vasculoprotective role of S1P signaling. This study investigates the role of endothelial-derived S1P and ApoM-bound S1P in regulating vascular tone and blood pressure. Methods and Results ApoM knockout (ApoM KO) mice and mice lacking endothelial Spinster-2 (ECKO-Spns2) were infused with angiotensin II for 28 days. Blood pressure, measured by telemetry and tail-cuff, was significantly increased in both ECKO-Spns2 and ApoM KO versus control mice, at baseline and following angiotensin II. Notably, ECKO-Spns2 presented an impaired vasodilation to flow and blood pressure dipping, which is clinically associated with increased risk for cardiovascular events. In hypertension, both groups presented reduced flow-mediated vasodilation and some degree of impairment in endothelial NO production, which was more evident in ECKO-Spns2. Increased hypertension in ECKO-Spns2 and ApoM KO mice correlated with worsened cardiac hypertrophy versus controls. Conclusions Our study identifies an important role for Spinster-2 and ApoM-HDL in blood pressure homeostasis via S1P-NO signaling and dissects the pathophysiological impact of endothelial-derived S1P and ApoM of HDL-bound S1P in hypertension and cardiac hypertrophy.

Abstract
The severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) pandemic has affected nearly 28 million people in the United States and has caused more than five hundred thousand deaths as of February 21, 2021. As the novel coronavirus continues to take its toll in the United States and all across the globe, particularly among the elderly (>65 years), clinicians and translational researchers are taking a closer look at the nexus of sleep, circadian rhythms and immunity that may contribute toward a more severe coronavirus disease-19 (COVID-19). SARS-CoV-2-induced multi-organ failure affects both central and peripheral organs, causing increased mortality in the elderly. However, whether differences in sleep, circadian rhythms, and immunity between older and younger individuals contribute to the age-related differences in systemic dysregulation of target organs observed in SARS-CoV-2 infection remain largely unknown. Current literature demonstrates the emerging role of sleep, circadian rhythms, and immunity in the development of chronic pulmonary diseases and respiratory infections in human and mouse models. The exact mechanism underlying acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS) and other cardiopulmonary complications in elderly patients in combination with associated comorbidities remain unclear. Nevertheless, understanding the critical role of sleep, circadian clock dysfunction in target organs, and immune status of patients with SARS-CoV-2 may provide novel insights into possible therapies. Chronotherapy is an emerging concept that is gaining attention in sleep medicine. Accumulating evidence suggests that nearly half of all physiological functions follow a strict daily rhythm. However, healthcare professionals rarely take implementing timed-administration of drugs into consideration. In this review, we summarize recent findings directly relating to the contributing roles of sleep, circadian rhythms and immune response in modulating infectious disease processes, and integrate chronotherapy in the discussion of the potential drugs that can be repurposed to improve the treatment and management of COVID-19.

Abstract
Objective. In this perspective paper, we aim to highlight the potential of sleep as an auspicious time for diagnosis, management and therapy of non-sleep-specific pathologies.Approach. Sleep has a profound influence on the physiology of body systems and biological processes. Molecular studies have shown circadian-regulated shifts in protein expression patterns across human tissues, further emphasizing the unique functional, behavioral and pharmacokinetic landscape of sleep. Thus, many pathological processes are also expected to exhibit sleep-specific manifestations. Modern advances in biosensor technologies have enabled remote, non-invasive recording of a growing number of physiologic parameters and biomarkers promoting the detection and study of such processes.Main results. Here, we introduce key clinical studies in selected medical fields, which leveraged novel technologies and the advantageous period of sleep to diagnose, monitor and treat pathologies. Studies demonstrate that sleep is an ideal time frame for the collection of long and clean physiological time series data which can then be analyzed using data-driven algorithms such as deep learning.Significance.This new paradigm proposes opportunities to further harness modern technologies to explore human health and disease during sleep and to advance the development of novel clinical applications - from sleep medicine to medicine during sleep.

Effect of Sleep Bruxism Intensity on Blood Pressure in Normotensives. J Clin Med 2021; 10:jcm10061304.

Abstract
The present research aimed to investigate the influence of sleep bruxism (SB) intensity on blood pressure parameters in normotensive subjects by using an ambulatory blood pressure device. The study group included 65 normotensive individuals suspected of having SB. All participants underwent one-night video-polysomnography, and ambulatory blood pressure monitoring was performed the next day; 86.15% of them were diagnosed with SB. Statistical analysis included correlation and regression analysis. The obtained results showed that systolic blood pressure variability during sleep significantly increased in individuals with BEI > 4 (bruxism episodes index; episodes/hour) compared to those with BEI ≤ 4 (8.81 ± 3.36 versus 10.57 ± 3.39, p = 0.05). Multivariable regression analysis showed that systolic blood pressure variability at nighttime was also associated with the following independent risk factors: higher apnea-to-bruxism index, male gender, BEI > 4 episodes/hour, body mass index (BMI) ≥ 25 kg/m2, higher arousal index, and shorter total sleep time. In summary, sleep bruxism intensity was associated with increased systolic blood pressure variability during sleep. Coincidental apnea, male gender, severe sleep bruxism (SB intensity with BEI > 4/hour), excess weight and obesity, higher arousal index, and shorter sleep time seem to be the main determinants that influence blood pressure in normotensive sleep bruxers.

Abstract
Obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) is a risk of hypertension and is associated with cardiovascular disease (CVD) incidence. In Asian countries, the prevalence of OSA is high, as in Western countries. When blood pressure (BP) is evaluated in OSA individuals using ambulatory BP monitoring (ABPM), the BP phenotype often indicates abnormal BP variability, such as increased nighttime BP or abnormal diurnal BP variation, that is, non‐dipper pattern, riser pattern, and morning BP surge, and all these conditions have been associated with increased CVD events. Asians have a higher prevalence of increased nighttime BP or morning BP surge than Westerners. Therefore, this review paper focused on OSA and hypertension from an Asian perspective to investigate the importance of the association between OSA and hypertension in the Asian population. Such abnormal BP variability has been shown to be associated with progression of arterial stiffness, and this association could provoke a vicious cycle between abnormal BP phenotypes and arterial stiffness, a phenomenon recognized as systemic hemodynamic atherothrombotic syndrome (SHATS). OSA may be one of the background factors that augment SHATS. An oxygen‐triggered nocturnal oscillometric BP measurement device combined with a pulse oximeter for continuous SpO2 monitoring could detect BP variability caused by OSA. In addition to treating the OSA, accurate and reliable detection and treatment of any residual BP elevation and BP variability caused by OSA would be necessary to prevent CVD events. However, more detailed detection of BP variability, such as beat‐by‐beat BP monitoring, would further help to reduce CV events.
