TouchNEUROLOGY was recently joined by Dr Ivana Rosenzweig (Sleep and Brain Plasticity Centre, King’s College London, London, UK), to discuss her talk on the “Link between sleep apnoea and dementia: the neuroimaging perspective”, which was presented at the virtual 2021 Sleep and Breathing Conference earlier in 2021.
Areas covered in this short interview video include: what is known about the relationship between sleep apnoea and dementia; how neuroimaging studies are increasing our understanding of this relationship; what has been learned about the pathophysiological processes underlying this link; what the implications of these findings are for future screening and treatment of sleep apnoea; and what further studies are needed.
