CPAP, weight loss, or both for obstructive sleep apnea.
BACKGROUND Obesity and obstructive sleep apnea tend to coexist and are associated with inflammation, insulin resistance, dyslipidemia, and high blood pressure, but their causal relation to these abnormalities is unclear. METHODS We randomly assigned 181 patients with obesity, moderate-to-severe obstructive sleep apnea, and serum levels of C-reactive protein (CRP) greater than 1.0 mg per liter...
متن کاملPersistence of obstructive sleep apnea after surgical weight loss.
STUDY OBJECTIVES Weight loss may reduce the severity of obstructive sleep apnea (OSA), but persistence of OSA following surgical weight loss has not been defined. We sought to clarify the impact of bariatric surgery on OSA. We hypothesized that, despite substantial weight loss and reductions in the apnea-hypopnea index (AHI), many will have persistent disease. METHODS Consecutive patients ref...
متن کاملPrevalence of sleep apnea in morbidly obese patients who presented for weight loss surgery evaluation: more evidence for routine screening for obstructive sleep apnea before weight loss surgery.
The incidence of obstructive sleep apnea has been underestimated in morbidly obese patients who present for evaluation for weight loss surgery. This retrospective study shows that the incidence of obstructive sleep apnea in this patient population is greater than 70 per cent and increases in incidence as the body mass index increases. Obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) is a common comorbidity in obe...
متن کاملObstructive sleep apnea and body weight.
A patient with obstructive sleep apnea was monitored five times during three years while his weight fluctuated within a range of 26 kg. The number of apneas per hour of sleep varied from 59.6 at 111 kg of weight to 3.1 at 85 kg. The relation between apneas per hour of sleep and body weight was a logarithmic function. A modest decrease in weight was thus associated with a disproportionally large...
متن کاملGlucose Tolerance and Weight Loss in Obese Women with Obstructive Sleep Apnea
BACKGROUND The association of obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) with glucose intolerance and the beneficial effect of lifestyle intervention have been poorly investigated in women particularly before menopausal status. The study explored 1) whether OSA is associated with impaired glucose homeostasis in obese non diabetic premenopausal and menopausal women and 2) the effects of a 3- month lifestyle ...
