Article Abstract
Objective: To conduct a bibliometric analysis using VOSviewer and Citespace to explore the current applications, trends, and future directions of artificial intelligence (AI) in obstructive sleep apnea (OSA).
Methods: On 13 September 2024, a computer search was conducted on the Web of Science Core Collection dataset published between 1 January 2011, and 30 August 2024, to identify literature related to the application of AI in OSA. Visualization analysis was performed on countries, institutions, journal sources, authors, co-cited authors, citations, and keywords using Vosviewer and Citespace, and descriptive analysis tables were created by using Microsoft Excel 2021 software.
Results: A total of 867 articles were included in this study. The number of publications was low and stable from 2011 to 2016, with a significant increase after 2017. China had the highest number of publications. Alvarez, Daniel, and Hornero, Roberto were the two most prolific authors. Universidad de Valladolid and the IEEE Journal of Biomedical and Health Informatics were the most productive institution and journal, respectively. The top three authors in terms of co-citation frequency are Hassan, Ar, Young, T, and Vicini, C. "Estimation of the global prevalence and burden of obstructive sleep apnoea: a literature-based analysis" was cited the most frequently. Keywords such as "OSA," "machine learning," "Electrocardiography," and "deep learning" were dominant.
Conclusion: AI's application in OSA research is expanding. This study indicates that AI, particularly deep learning, will continue to be a key research area, focusing on diagnosis, identification, personalized treatment, prognosis assessment, telemedicine, and management. Future efforts should enhance international cooperation and interdisciplinary communication to maximize the potential of AI in advancing OSA research, comprehensively empowering sleep health, bringing more precise, convenient, and personalized medical services to patients and ushering in a new era of sleep health.

Introduction: It is well known that Obstructive Sleep Apnea (OSA) is a complex disease characterized by an Upper Airway (UA) collapse during sleep, with potential consequences on ENT districts. Recent evidence suggests a possible association with Eustachian Tube Dysfunction (ETD). However, the potential effects of both surgical and non-surgical therapeutic strategies on ET function remain poorly explored in the current literature.

Purpose: Sleep disturbance is prevalent in long-term care facilities (LTCFs), yet there is limited understanding of individual factors predicting changes in sleep within these populations. Our objective was to determine predictors of sleep disturbance in LTCFs and investigate variation in prevalence across facilities in two Canadian provinces-New Brunswick and Saskatchewan.
Method: This retrospective longitudinal cohort study used interRAI comprehensive health assessment data from 2016 to 2021, encompassing 21,394 older adults aged ≥ 65 years across 228 LTCFs.

A 48-year-old man with a superior labral tear and medical history including hemidiaphragmatic paresis, obstructive sleep apnea, vocal cord paresis, and glottic narrowing, underwent arthroscopic biceps tenodesis. Reduction in respiratory function presented anesthetic management challenges with general anesthesia or an interscalene brachial plexus block. Instead, ultrasound guidance was used to deliver a selective upper-trunk block with 1 % lidocaine and an axillary nerve block with 0.
