Serum S100B but not NSE Levels are Increased in Morbidly Obese Individuals Affected by Obstructive Sleep Apnea–Hypopnea Syndrome

Abstract: Our study shows a significant increase in S100B level after PSG compared to before. This suggests that there is a CNS astrocyte reaction because of possible cerebral hypoxemia in morbidly obese patients with OSAHS.

“…30 These different results could be explained by the ethnic difference, medications, cerebral areas affected or characteristics of population. 5 In conclusion, in our study, S100B protein level in serum did not significantly higher in patients with OSAS compared to the control group. However, further investigations are required, particularly in the area of biochemical markers of small cerebral damage in patients with OSAS, to monitor progression and efficacy.…”

“…4 The severity of OSAS is measured by apnea hypopnea index (AHI), which is classified three levels: mild (AHI=5 to 15 events per hour); moderate (AHI=15 to 30 events per hour); and severe (AHI=>30 events per hour). 5 The repetitive hypoxia and reoxygenation cycle in OSAS is thought to resemble ischemia-reperfusion injury. 6 The central neural system(CNS) is vulnerable to these hypoxic condition and neurocognitive manifestation of OSAS, which includes daytime sleepiness alteration in personality, impairment in concantretations, perception, communication, learning and memory .…”

“…Da Silva et al reviewed the effects of OSA on homeostasis in the central nervous system (CNS) by examining the levels of biochemical markers of cerebral injury (neuron-specific enolase and the S100B protein derived from astrocytes) in OSA patients. The results of their study showed a significant increase in S100B markers, suggesting a CNS astrocyte reaction in response to cerebral hypoxemia in patients with OSA and supporting the view that OSA causes brain alterations, which can manifest as neuropsychological symptoms [20].…”

“…The studies were published from 2002 to 2017. Two studies were reported in Germany [10,21], two in Brazil [15,17], one in the Czech Republic [16], three in Turkey [18][19][20], and one in Egypt [22]. Three were crosssectional studies [10,16,17], and six were casecontrol studies [15,[18][19][20][21][22].…”
