Out of the box, itâs simply a way to view video and music files, either on the device itself or streamed over a local Wi-Fi network. You can certainly use Kodi to watch illegally-downloaded movies or ripped DVDs, but in that regard itâs no different from Plex, another popular media app that Amazon welcomes in its store.
Sleep apnea is 'a fatal disease,' two studies find. August 01, 2008|Thomas H. Maugh II | Times Staff Writer. Sleep apnea, brief disruptions of breathing during the night that affect as many as 12 million Americans, increases the risk of death four- to sixfold, according to two new studies released today.
The Greek word âapneaâ literally means âwithout breath.â Sleep apnea is an involuntary cessation of breathing that occurs while the patient is asleep. There are three types of sleep apnea: obstructive, central, and mixed. Of the three, obstructive sleep apnea, often called OSA for short, is the most common. Despite the difference in the root cause of each type, in all three, people with untreated sleep apnea stop breathing repeatedly during their sleep, sometimes hundreds of times during the night and often for a minute or longer.
