Walk the line: gait and postural impairments as a signature of OSA?s brain repercussions - 7th Sleep and Breathing Conference, 2023

7th Sleep and Breathing Conference, 2023 - Prague

Organised by the European Respiratory Society (ERS) and the European Sleep Research Society (ESRS), the Sleep and Breathing conference is the largest pan-European meeting of its type and the only meeting offering an integrated approach to the investigation and treatment of sleep disorders.

Sleep and Breathing 2023 took place in Prague from 20-22 April, 2023. It welcomed interested professionals from all levels of experience to update their knowledge and skills, and to network with other respiratory professionals specialising in sleep respiratory medicine and science.

Discussion and Q&A

Session aims

1. Review the current evidence whether OSA may lead to the neuroinflammation in the central nervous system and demonstrate the impact on the cognition and the baseline sleep rhythms - both of which may prove an interesting biomarkers of future treatment success. 2. Offer an overview of the complexity of cognition and how different neurocognitive tests should be used in sleep disorder/OSA. 3. Review the available evidence on gait alterations in OSA and discuss its interest as a biomarker of brain health in OSA.
