DOI: 10.1111/resp.14526
Abstract: BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVE Obesity hypoventilation syndrome (OHS) causes hypercapnia which is often refractory to current therapies. We examine whether hypercapnia in OHS can be improved by a ketogenic dietary intervention. METHODS We conducted a single-arm… read more here.

DOI: 10.1136/thoraxjnl-2017-210642
Abstract: Rationale Despite a significant association between obesity hypoventilation syndrome (OHS) and cardiac dysfunction, no randomised trials have assessed the impact of non-invasive ventilation (NIV) or CPAP on cardiac structure and function assessed by echocardiography. Objectives… read more here.

DOI: 10.1136/thoraxjnl-2019-213622
Abstract: Background Obesity hypoventilation syndrome (OHS) is treated with either non-invasive ventilation (NIV) or CPAP, but there are no long-term cost-effectiveness studies comparing the two treatment modalities. Objectives We performed a large, multicentre, randomised, open-label controlled… read more here.
