Snoring is the hoarse or harsh sound that occurs when air flows past relaxed tissues in your throat, causing the tissues to vibrate as you breathe. Nearly everyone snores now and then, but for some people it can be a chronic problem. Sometimes it may also indicate a serious health condition. In addition, snoring can be a nuisance to your partner.
The Experts at Asonor have dedicated their efforts to prevent snoring. It’s a non-surgical solution that will ensure everyone with a good night’s rest.

Check out our presentation titled "Understanding the Causes, Effects, and Solutions for Snoring" which aims to provide an overview of effects of Snoring.
Snoring happens when you can't move air freely through your nose and throat during sleep. If you snore regularly at night, it can disrupt the quality of your sleep which leads to daytime fatigue, irritability, and an increase in health-related problems.
Obstructive sleep apnea is a potentially serious sleep disorder. It causes breathing to constantly stop and start during sleep. There are several types of sleep apnea, but the most common is obstructive sleep apnea. This type of apnea occurs when your throat muscles intermittently relax and block your airway during sleep. The most common sign of obstructive sleep apnea is snoring and many treatments for obstructive sleep apnea are available. One treatment involves using a device that keeps your airway open while you sleep. Another option is a mouthpiece to thrust your jaw forward during sleep. In more severe cases, surgery may be an option too.

If you or your partner snore regularly or occasionally, you might wonder how to stop snoring. You’re not alone. In adults between 30 and 60 years old, 44% of men and 28% of women snore1 regularly. Over age 60, around half of all people snore2 regularly.
Snoring is the sound that results from air passing through your airway when it is partially blocked. Tissues at the top of your airway touch each other and vibrate, making you snore3. Virtually all adults snore occasionally.
Sleep apnea is a serious sleep disorder that occurs when a person's breathing is interrupted during sleep. People with untreated sleep apnea stop breathing repeatedly during their sleep, sometimes many a times. hence The brain and the rest of the body DO not get enough oxygen.

New Directions in Targeted Therapeutic Approaches for Older Adults With Mantl...i3 Health
i3 Health is pleased to make the speaker slides from this activity available for use as a non-accredited self-study or teaching resource.
This slide deck presented by Dr. Kami Maddocks, Professor-Clinical in the Division of Hematology and
Associate Division Director for Ambulatory Operations
The Ohio State University Comprehensive Cancer Center, will provide insight into new directions in targeted therapeutic approaches for older adults with mantle cell lymphoma.
STATEMENT OF NEED
Mantle cell lymphoma (MCL) is a rare, aggressive B-cell non-Hodgkin lymphoma (NHL) accounting for 5% to 7% of all lymphomas. Its prognosis ranges from indolent disease that does not require treatment for years to very aggressive disease, which is associated with poor survival (Silkenstedt et al, 2021). Typically, MCL is diagnosed at advanced stage and in older patients who cannot tolerate intensive therapy (NCCN, 2022). Although recent advances have slightly increased remission rates, recurrence and relapse remain very common, leading to a median overall survival between 3 and 6 years (LLS, 2021). Though there are several effective options, progress is still needed towards establishing an accepted frontline approach for MCL (Castellino et al, 2022). Treatment selection and management of MCL are complicated by the heterogeneity of prognosis, advanced age and comorbidities of patients, and lack of an established standard approach for treatment, making it vital that clinicians be familiar with the latest research and advances in this area. In this activity chaired by Michael Wang, MD, Professor in the Department of Lymphoma & Myeloma at MD Anderson Cancer Center, expert faculty will discuss prognostic factors informing treatment, the promising results of recent trials in new therapeutic approaches, and the implications of treatment resistance in therapeutic selection for MCL.
Target Audience
Hematology/oncology fellows, attending faculty, and other health care professionals involved in the treatment of patients with mantle cell lymphoma (MCL).
Learning Objectives
1.) Identify clinical and biological prognostic factors that can guide treatment decision making for older adults with MCL
2.) Evaluate emerging data on targeted therapeutic approaches for treatment-naive and relapsed/refractory MCL and their applicability to older adults
3.) Assess mechanisms of resistance to targeted therapies for MCL and their implications for treatment selection

The prostate is an exocrine gland of the male mammalian reproductive system
It is a walnut-sized gland that forms part of the male reproductive system and is located in front of the rectum and just below the urinary bladder
Function is to store and secrete a clear, slightly alkaline fluid that constitutes 10-30% of the volume of the seminal fluid that along with the spermatozoa, constitutes semen
A healthy human prostate measures (4cm-vertical, by 3cm-horizontal, 2cm ant-post ).
It surrounds the urethra just below the urinary bladder. It has anterior, median, posterior and two lateral lobes
It’s work is regulated by androgens which are responsible for male sex characteristics
Generalised disease of the prostate due to hormonal derangement which leads to non malignant enlargement of the gland (increase in the number of epithelial cells and stromal tissue)to cause compression of the urethra leading to symptoms (LUTS

Snoring
Request an Appointment
Patient Care & Health Information Diseases & Conditions
Overview
Snoring is the hoarse or harsh sound that occurs when air flows past relaxed tissues in
your throat, causing the tissues to vibrate as you breathe. Nearly everyone snores now
and then, but for some people it can be a chronic problem. Sometimes it may also
indicate a serious health condition. In addition, snoring can be a nuisance to your
partner.
Lifestyle changes, such as losing weight, avoiding alcohol close to bedtime or sleeping
on your side, can help stop snoring.
In addition, medical devices and surgery are available that may reduce disruptive
snoring. However, these aren't suitable or necessary for everyone who snores.
Symptoms
Snoring is often associated with a sleep disorder called obstructive sleep apnea (OSA).
Not all snorers have OSA, but if snoring is accompanied by any of the following
symptoms, it may be an indication to see a doctor for further evaluation for OSA:
Witnessed breathing pauses during sleep
Excessive daytime sleepiness
Difficulty concentrating
Morning headaches
Sore throat upon awakening
Restless sleep
Gasping or choking at night
High blood pressure
Chest pain at night
Your snoring is so loud it's disrupting your partner's sleep
In children, poor attention span, behavioral issues or poor performance in school
OSA often is characterized by loud snoring followed by periods of silence when breathing
stops or nearly stops. Eventually, this reduction or pause in breathing may signal you to
wake up, and you may awaken with a loud snort or gasping sound.
You may sleep lightly due to disrupted sleep. This pattern of breathing pauses may be
repeated many times during the night.

2. People with obstructive sleep apnea usually experience periods when breathing slows or
stops at least five times during every hour of sleep.
When to see a doctor
See your doctor if you have any of the above symptoms. These may indicate your
snoring is associated with obstructive sleep apnea (OSA).
If your child snores, ask your pediatrician about it. Children can have OSA, too. Nose
and throat problems — such as enlarged tonsils — and obesity often can narrow a child's
airway, which can lead to your child developing OSA.
Causes
Snoring can be caused by a number of factors, such as
the anatomy of your mouth and sinuses, alcohol
consumption, allergies, a cold, and your weight.
When you doze off and progress from a light sleep to a
deep sleep, the muscles in the roof of your mouth (soft
palate), tongue and throat relax. The tissues in your
throat can relax enough that they partially block your
airway and vibrate.
The more narrowed your airway, the more forceful the airflow becomes. This increases
tissue vibration, which causes your snoring to grow louder.
The following conditions can affect the airway and cause snoring:
Your mouth anatomy. Having a low, thick soft palate can narrow your airway.
People who are overweight may have extra tissues in the back of their throats that
may narrow their airways. Likewise, if the triangular piece of tissue hanging from the
soft palate (uvula) is elongated, airflow can be obstructed and vibration increased.
Alcohol consumption. Snoring can also be brought on by consuming too much
alcohol before bedtime. Alcohol relaxes throat muscles and decreases your natural
defenses against airway obstruction.
Nasal problems. Chronic nasal congestion or a crooked partition between your
nostrils (deviated nasal septum) may contribute to your snoring.
Sleep deprivation. Not getting enough sleep can lead to further throat relaxation.
Sleep position. Snoring is typically most frequent and loudest when sleeping on
the back as gravity's effect on the throat narrows the airway.
Risk factors
Risk factors that may contribute to snoring include:
Being a man. Men are more likely to snore or have sleep apnea than are women.
Being overweight. People who are overweight or obese are more likely to snore or
have obstructive sleep apnea.
Having a narrow airway. Some people may have a long soft palate, or large tonsils
or adenoids, which can narrow the airway and cause snoring.
Drinking alcohol. Alcohol relaxes your throat muscles, increasing the risk of
snoring.
Having nasal problems. If you have a structural defect in your airway, such as a
deviated septum, or your nose is chronically congested, your risk of snoring is
greater.
Having a family history of snoring or obstructive sleep apnea. Heredity is a
potential risk factor for OSA.
Complications
Habitual snoring may be more than just a nuisance. Aside from disrupting a bed partner's
sleep, if snoring is associated with OSA, you may be at risk for other complications,
including:
Daytime sleepiness
