Damaged Brains?
Research findings showing neuropsychological impairment of the type commonly associated with brain disease in patients with Obstructive Sleep Apnea, even under treatment with Continuous Positive Airway Pressure, raise fears of irreversible "brain damage" as a consequence of OSA. However, research has yet to separate continuous impairment from state-dependent impairment related to varying levels of Excessive Daytime Sleepiness. Until such studies show otherwise, patients should maintain an attitude of concern enough to keep track of new findings, but resist counterproductive worry and anxiety over the issue.

Did Sleep Apnea Afflict Johannes Brahms?
Johannes Brahms had many signs and symptoms of obstructive sleep apnea--frequent napping under inappropriate circumstances, falling asleep with extraordinary rapidity, heroic snoring. His success despite this deserves our admiration and emulation in the face of other disabling diseases. Moreover, current epidemiologic data suggests that OSA must affected many others, in times when it could not be diagnosed or treatment, but might have drawn ridicule or even accusations of character defects, like "laziness."

Can Your Bed Partner's Snoring Make You Sick?
A new study claims to be the first to show that wives of snorers suffer symptoms of sleep disturbance and the consequences of sleep deprivation, two to three times as often as women with husbands who do not snore. The same finding should prove to apply to men living with women who snore. While snoring is more frequent in men than women (41% vs. 28%), together male and female snorers make up one-third of the population--an extremely common problem!
