Wootton D, Sin S, Luo H, Yazdani A, McDonough J, Wagshul M, et al.
J Appl Physiol (1985) . 2016 Jul; 121(4):925-931. PMID: 27445297
Obstructive sleep apnea syndrome (OSAS) is associated with anatomical abnormalities restricting upper airway size and functional factors decreasing pharyngeal dilator activity in sleep. In this study we hypothesized that OSAS...

Luo H, Sin S, McDonough J, Isasi C, Arens R, Wootton D
J Biomech . 2014 May; 47(10):2498-503. PMID: 24840295
Background: Improvements in obstructive sleep apnea syndrome (OSAS) severity may be associated with improved pharyngeal fluid mechanics following adenotonsillectomy (AT). The study objective is to use image-based computational fluid dynamics...

Laryngoscope . 2014 Mar; 124(11):2640-4. PMID: 24615829
Objectives/hypothesis: To evaluate nasal resistance in obese children with and without obstructive sleep apnea syndrome (OSAS), study the correlation between nasal resistance and severity of OSAS using the apnea-hypopnea index...

J Appl Physiol (1985) . 2013 Nov; 116(1):104-12. PMID: 24265282
Computational fluid dynamics (CFD) analysis may quantify the severity of anatomical airway restriction in obstructive sleep apnea syndrome (OSAS) better than anatomical measurements alone. However, optimal CFD model endpoints to...
