Effects of Continuous Positive Airway Pressure on Cardiovascular Risk Profile in Patients With Severe Obstructive Sleep Apnea and Metabolic Syndrome
Abstract
Background The increased risk of atherosclerotic morbidity and mortality in patients with obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) has been linked to arterial hypertension, insulin resistance, systemic inflammation, and oxidative stress. We aimed to determine the effects of 8 weeks of therapy with continuous positive airway pressure (CPAP) on glucose and lipid profile, systemic inflammation, oxidative stress, and global cardiovascular disease (CVD) risk in...
