“…A person who has a distinctive mental or physical feature compared to individuals of the same age is considered as a medically compromised patient (MCP). These patients may face a higher medical risk due to the presence of more interactions between implant surgery and their disease [42][43][44][45][46][47][48]. Therefore, these patients are required to fill in a medical questionnaire and do some exhaustive medical examination before implant placement, which will be helpful for the estimation of the patient's risk and determination of the specific measures that should be adopted.…”

vascular disease) affecting therapyial preliminary considerations of dental implant treatment. However, in case of HIV-positive patients, the dental implant failure rate would not increase due to affective factors (e.g., prophylactic antibiotic treatment, the administration of active antiretroviral therapy, and control of the CD 4+ T lymphocyte counts). Therefore, these patients have no clinical signs of mobility or infection in this treatment and much more attention should be paid to these patients and they should be treated with controlled oral surgical procedures.

“…Over 40% of patients with congestive heart failure (CHF) have comorbid OSA mainly on the basis of mutual risk factors of DM, hypertension, obesity, and older age [70,71]. In addition, insomnia in those with CHF may arise from a variety of factors including diuretic medications (and subsequent nocturia), positional heart failure symptoms, increased adrenergic status, or psychosocial factors [72].…”

“… 3 Additionally, in hospitalized patients with decompensated heart failure, mortality rates are higher in patients with OSA. 4 , 5 Furthermore, studies have assessed OSA as a probable risk factor for developing metabolic diseases like diabetes mellitus type 2, glucose intolerance, and metabolic syndrome. 6 , 7 Likewise, patients with cardiovascular and metabolic comorbidities have a higher incidence of OSA.…”

Purpose Obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) is a common sleep disorder which prevalence is 22% in men and 17% in women. It is well described that females presented different clinical and polysomnographic characteristics compared with men. Those studies were performed in plain areas. We described the analysis by gender and clinical profiles of a sample of patients with diagnostic of OSA and living at high altitude. Patients and Methods It is an observational study that describes differences between clinical and polysomnographic characteristics by gender in patients with OSA. Additionally, an unsupervised cluster algorithm was used to find groups of patients with similar clinical and polysomnographic characteristics. Results We included 709 patients, 51.6% were females and 48.3% were males with mean age of 64 and 62 years old, respectively, in which 90.97% presented OSA. Men presented a higher apnea and hypopnea index than women (p=0.002), besides presented more sleep polysomnographic alterations. Meanwhile, women evidenced better sleep quality based on parameters. Additionally, in the sample of patients, we found four separated clinical profiles characterized mainly by differences in the severity of polysomnographic parameters. Conclusion The patients were more obese, older, and had lower SpO 2 values than most of those previously reported. Men had greater severity in most of the parameters measured by polysomnography. Polysomnographic variables were different both in the OSA patient profiles and in the gender comparison. However, the REM sleep apnea hypopnea index did not differ between sexes, indicating the importance of this variable in the evaluation of OSA severity in women. In contrast to previous reports, clinical and demographic characteristics showed few differences in both analyses. This result suggests that the behavior of OSA at high altitudes may have particularities with respect to low altitudes.
