However, the factors contributing to deterioration in quality of life remain unclear. This study investigated the factors associated with quality of life deterioration in patients with HFpEF and sleep-disordered breathing. This prospective cross-sectional study included inpatients with HFpEF (left ventricular ejection fraction of ≥ 50%). Sleep-disordered breathing and quality of life were evaluated using polysomnography and the Short Form-8 Health Survey, respectively. The patients were grouped based on thei median physical and mental component summary Short Form-8 Health Survey scores. Among the 31 patients with HFpEF (aged 73.7 ± 10.9 years; 67.7% women; left ventricular ejection fraction, 65.3% ± 8.1%), the median apnea-hypopnea index was 11.5 per hour. Although no differences in parameters related to sleep-disordered breathing were found among the physical component summary-stratified groups, the low mental component summary group exhibited significantly lower nadir oxygen saturation than those exhibited by the high mental component summary group (84.3 ± 5.7% vs. 88.5 ± 3.9%; p = 0.02); this difference remained significant even when adjusted for potential confounders (β = 0.43; p = 0.02). Nocturnal hypoxemia may be a contributing factor to the decline in the mental health aspect of quality of life in patients with HFpEF. Thus, clinicians should consider hypoxemia when managing HFpEF and sleep-disordered breathing.</p><p><strong>Supplementary information: </strong>The online version contains supplementary material available at 10.1007/s41105-024-00554-9.</p>","PeriodicalId":21896,"journal":{"name":"Sleep and Biological Rhythms","volume":"23 1","pages":"85-93"},"PeriodicalIF":1.0,"publicationDate":"2024-11-05","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC11718018/pdf/","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142972094","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"医学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

In this study, we aimed to assess serum UA concentrations in RLS patients to gain insights into its role in the etiopathogenesis of the condition.: This study involved 200 individuals. Serum UA levels were compared with clinical parameters. Disease severity was assessed, categorizing patients into \"mild,\" \"moderate,\" \"severe,\" and \"very severe\" subgroups. Comparative analysis of UA levels was conducted between these subgroups and the control group. Patients exhibited a statistically significant reduction in UA levels compared to controls (<i>p</i> = 0.001; <i>p</i> < 0.01).
