Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
Sleep and respiratory disorders are increasingly recognized as significant contributors to global morbidity and mortality, with growing implications for public health and healthcare systems. This Special Issue, entitled “Advances in Sleep and Respiratory Medicine”, aims to showcase the latest research, innovations, and clinical advancements in the diagnosis, treatment, and management of conditions such as obstructive sleep apnea (OSA), chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD), insomnia, hypersomnia, and other related disorders.
We welcome the submission of original research articles, clinical trials, review papers, and translational studies that explore novel diagnostic tools (e.g., wearable sensors, wireless monitoring), therapeutic interventions (e.g., CPAP optimization), and integrative approaches that link respiratory health with cardiovascular, neurological, or metabolic outcomes. We particularly encourage the submission of studies incorporating artificial intelligence, big data analytics, and digital health solutions in sleep and respiratory care.
Dr. Cheng-Yu Tsai
Guest Editor
