Assessment of left atrial appendage function during sinus rhythm in patients with obstructive sleep apnea

Vural, Mustafa Gökhan; Suha Cetin; Gündüz, Hüseyin; Ozge Ozcan Abacioglu; Akdemir, Ramazan; Hikmet Firat; Ekrem Yeter (TURKISH SOC CARDIOLOGY, 2016)

Conclusion: LAA mechanical function is significantly depressed in patients with OSA and SR. LAA dysfunction may predispose these patients to thromboembolic events. The evaluation of LAA mechanical function by tissue Doppler ...
Epicardial fat thickness regression with continuous positive airway pressure therapy in patients with obstructive sleep apnea: assessment by two-dimensional echocardiography

Suha Cetin; Vural, Mustafa Gökhan; Gündüz, Hüseyin; Akdemir, Ramazan; Hikmet Firat (SPRINGER WIEN, 2016)

Conclusion EFT was significantly higher in patients with AHI > 15 and predicted by MetS and AHI. CPAP therapy reduced hsCRP levels and EFT.
Left ventricular torsion in patients with obstructive sleep apnoea before and after continuous positive airway pressure therapy: assessment by two-dimensional speckle tracking echocardiography

Vural, Mustafa Gökhan; Suha Cetin; Keser, Nurgül; Hikmet Firat; Akdemir, Ramazan; Gündüz, Hüseyin (TAYLOR & FRANCIS LTD, 2017)

Conclusions: LV torsion was altered in OSA patients with varying degrees according to the disease severity. Furthermore, there was no significant change of torsion after 24 weeks of CPAP therapy.
Obstructive sleep apnea syndrome is associated with impaired pulmonary artery distensibility and right ventricular systolic dysfunction

Suha Cetin; Vural, Mustafa Gökhan; Hikmet Firat; Akdemir, Ramazan (TUBITAK SCIENTIFIC & TECHNICAL RESEARCH COUNCIL TURKEY, 2018)

Conclusion: PAD is a significant tool to evaluate pulmonary vasculature stiffening and is well correlated with disease severity in OSAS. Further, impaired PAD may lead to RV systolic dysfunction.
