Comparative efficacy of sleep positional therapy, oral appliance therapy, and CPAP in obstructive sleep apnea: a meta-analysis of mean changes in key outcomes by Yunjun Gao, Sixiang Zhu, Wenjun Li, Youqing Lai

“…Data extraction focused on changes in key outcomes such as apnea-hypopnea index (AHI), total sleep time (TST), oxygen desaturation index (ODI), and sleep architecture from pre- to post-intervention. Random-effects meta-analyses were conducted to compare mean changes between SPT and control groups (placebo, OAT, CPAP), with sensitivity analyses to assess heterogeneity.ResultsSleep positional therapy (SPT) showed a significant reduction in AHI in the supine position compared to placebo (MD = −7.46, 95% CI: −11.42, −3.49), although no difference was observed in overall AHI between SPT and placebo or OAT. …”

VEXAS, Chediak–Higashi syndrome and Danon disease: myeloid cell endo-lysosomal pathway dysfunction as a common denominator? by Coline Savy, Maxence Bourgoin, Thomas Cluzeau, Arnaud Jacquel, Guillaume Robert, Patrick Auberger

“…LAMP2 deficiency for instance is known to be associated with alterations of lysosome architecture and function. It is thus well established that different cell types from Danon disease patients that harbor invalidating mutations in LAMP2 exhibit giant lysosomes containing undigested materials characteristic of defects in the fusion of lysosomes with autophagosomes, a feature also found in VEXAS and CHS. …”

Rainbow: An Operating System for Software-Hardware Multitasking on Dynamically Partially Reconfigurable FPGAs by Krzysztof Jozwik, Shinya Honda, Masato Edahiro, Hiroyuki Tomiyama, Hiroaki Takada

“…We also propose a novel, lightweight scheduling mechanism allowing for timely and priority-based reservation of reconfigurable resources, which aims at usage of preemption only at the time it brings benefits to the performance of a system. The architecture of the scheduler and the way it schedules allocations of the hardware tasks result in shorter latency of system calls, thereby reducing the overall OS overhead. …”
