Understanding Loop Gain in Obstructive Sleep Apnea
NL Deacon-Diaz, A Malhotra - Frontiers in Neurology, 2018
Unstable ventilatory chemoreflex control, quantified as loop gain, is recognized as
one of four key pathophysiological traits that contribute to cause obstructive sleep
apnea (OSA). Novel treatments aimed at reducing loop gain are being investigated …
