ABSTRACT
Obstructive sleep apnea-hypopnea syndrome (OSAHS) is a prevalent sleep disorder associated with multiple systemic health issues and has emerged as a major public health concern. It is critical to investigate personalized treatments for different subtypes based on distinct pathophysiological mechanisms. Upper airway muscle dysfunction is recognized as one of the key factors in the development of OSAHS. This article provided a comprehensive review of the various mechanisms and therapeutic approaches related to the upper airway dilator muscles in OSAHS, and proposed an innovative treatment strategy for this condition.
