Sleep Bruxism and Sleep-Disordered Breathing
CRITICAL APPRAISAL Sleep Bruxism and Sleep-Disordered Breathing Author STEVEN D BENDER, DDS*, Associate Editor EDWARD J. SWIFT JR., DMD, MS ABSTRACT Sleep bruxism (SB) is a repetitive jaw muscle activity with clenching or grinding of the teeth during sleep. SB is characterized by what is known as rhythmic masticatory muscle activity (RMMA). RMMA is the laboratory polysomnographic finding that differentiates SB from other oromandibular movements seen during sleep. Most often RMMA episodes are associated with sleep arousal. Some patients will report similar complaints related to both SB and sleep disordered breathing (SDB). There are some reports that would suggest that SB is a result of SDB. It has has been postulated that SB is a compensatory mechanism to re establish muscle tone of the upper airway. While these disorders do in fact often present concomitantly, the relationship between the two is yet to be fully elucidated. This Critical Appraisal reviews 3 recent publications with the intent to better define what relationships may exists between SDB and SB. While the current evidence appears to support the notion that these are often concomitant disorders, it also makes clear that evidence to support the hypothesis that SDB is causative for SB is currently lacking.

Asphyxia Neonatorum
CLINICAL REVIEW Asphyxia Neonatorum Raul C. Banagale, MD, and Steven M. Donn, MD Ann Arbor, Michigan Various biochemical and structural changes affecting the newborn’s well being develop as a result of perinatal asphyxia. Central nervous system ab normalities are frequent complications with high mortality and morbidity. Cardiac compromise may lead to dysrhythmias and cardiogenic shock. Coagulopathy in the form of disseminated intravascular coagulation or mas sive pulmonary hemorrhage are potentially lethal complications. Necrotizing enterocolitis, acute renal failure, and endocrine problems affecting fluid elec trolyte balance are likely to occur. Even the adrenal glands and pancreas are vulnerable to perinatal oxygen deprivation. The best form of management appears to be anticipation, early identification, and prevention of potential obstetrical-neonatal problems. Every effort should be made to carry out ef fective resuscitation measures on the depressed infant at the time of delivery. erinatal asphyxia produces a wide diversity of in molecules brought into the alveoli inadequately com Pjury in the newborn.

Although the concept of J wave syndromes is widely used and accepted, there has been tremendous debate over the definition of J wave, its ionic and cellular basis and arrhythmogenic mechanism. In this review article, we attempted to discuss the history from which the concept of J wave syndromes (JWS) is evolved and current controversies in JWS.

The Syndrome of Alternating Bradycardia and Tachycardia by D
Br Heart J: first published as 10.1136/hrt.16.2.208 on 1 April 1954. Downloaded from THE SYNDROME OF ALTERNATING BRADYCARDIA AND TACHYCARDIA BY D. S. SHORT From the National Heart Hospita. Received September 15, 1953 Among the large number of patients suffering from syncopal attacks who attended the National Heart Hospital during a four-year period, there were four in whom examination revealed sinus bradycardia alternating with prolonged phases of auricular tachycardia. These patients presented a difficult problem in treatment. Each required at least one admission to hospital and in one case the symptoms were so intractable as to necessitate six admissions in five years. Two patients had mitral valve disease, one of them with left bundle branch block. One had aortic valve sclerosis while the fourth had no evidence of heart disease. THE HEART RATE The sinus rate usually lay between 30 and 50 a minute, a rate as slow as 22 a minute being observed in one patient (Table I).

Sleep Apnea Sleep Apnea
Health and Safety Guidelines 1 Sleep Apnea Sleep Apnea Normally while sleeping, air is moved at a regular rhythm through the throat and in and out the lungs. When someone has sleep apnea, air movement becomes decreased or stops altogether. Sleep apnea can affect long term health. Types of sleep apnea: 1. Obstructive sleep apnea (narrowing or closure of the throat during sleep) which is seen most commonly, and, 2. Central sleep apnea (the brain is causing a change in breathing control and rhythm) Obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) About 25% of all adults are at risk for sleep apnea of some degree. Men are more commonly affected than women. Other risk factors include: 1. Middle and older age 2. Being overweight 3. Having a small mouth and throat Down syndrome Because of soft tissue and skeletal alterations that lead to upper airway obstruction, people with Down syndrome have an increased risk of obstructive sleep apnea. Statistics show that obstructive sleep apnea occurs in at least 30 to 75% of people with Down syndrome, including those who are not obese. In over half of person’s with Down syndrome whose parents reported no sleep problems, sleep studies showed abnormal results. Sleep apnea causing lowered oxygen levels often contributes to mental impairment. How does obstructive sleep apnea occur? The throat is surrounded by muscles that are active controlling the airway during talking, swallowing and breathing. During sleep, these muscles are much less active. They can fall back into the throat, causing narrowing. In most people this doesn’t affect breathing. However in some the narrowing can cause snoring. -

These traits include a low arousal threshold in eupneic CO2 and sensitivity. This theory is based on (wake easily from sleep), upper airway gain (how effectively the founding work by Iber and colleagues in 1986 (7) activation of upper airway dilator muscles improves who studied tracheostomized OSA patients following ventilation), loop gain (stability of the negative feedback experimental tracheal occlusion during stable NREM sleep. chemoreflex control system) and upper airway collapsibility They found that tracheal occlusion yielded arousal and (anatomical predisposition to passive airway collapse) (1). pharyngeal opening which resulted in hyperventilation and While deficits in these traits and how they interact varies hypocapnia, followed by a reduction in minute ventilation between individuals, generally mechanisms that increase and prolongation of expiratory time. The magnitude of activation of upper airway dilator muscles are considered to hypocapnia correlated with expiratory prolongation and help protect the airway from collapse. -
