Changes in intra-abdominal visceral fat and serum leptin levels in patients with obstructive sleep apnea syndrome following nasal continuous positive airway pressure therapy.
BACKGROUND Obstructive sleep apnea syndrome (OSAS) is a common disorder in obese subjects. Visceral fat accumulation (VFA) is a better predictor of coronary heart disease than body mass index. Leptin is a hormone involved in the control of body weight and fat distribution. The effect of nasal continuous positive airway pressure (NCPAP) treatment on VFA and serum leptin levels in OSAS patients h...
متن کاملCardiometabolic changes after continuous positive airway pressure for obstructive sleep apnoea: a randomised sham-controlled study.
RATIONALE AND OBJECTIVES Impaired insulin sensitivity (ISx), increased visceral abdominal fat (VAF) and liver fat are all central components of the metabolic syndrome and characteristics of men with obstructive sleep apnoea (OSA). The reversibility of these observed changes with continuous positive airway pressure (CPAP) treatment in men with OSA has not been systematically studied in a randomi...
متن کاملAssociation between endothelial function (assessed on reactive hyperemia peripheral arterial tonometry) and obstructive sleep apnea, visceral fat accumulation, and serum adiponectin.
BACKGROUND Visceral obesity, low adiponectin, and severe obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) are associated with cardiovascular diseases, but the interactions among these factors on endothelial dysfunction are not well known. METHODS AND RESULTS Endothelial function in 133 patients after polysomnography was evaluated as reactive hyperemia index (RHI) on reactive hyperemia peripheral arterial tonome...
متن کاملSleep apnoea and visceral adiposity in middle-aged male and female subjects.
In obese male subjects, visceral adiposity has been associated with obstructive sleep apnoea (OSA), while studies in overweight males and females are limited. Our goal was to examine the association between OSA and visceral fat in a relatively nonobese population and assess the effects of 2 months placebo-controlled continuous positive airway pressure (CPAP) use on abdominal fat. 81 subjects, 2...
متن کاملSerum leptin and vascular risk factors in obstructive sleep apnea.
STUDY OBJECTIVES To define the metabolic profile relevant to vascular risks in obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) and the role of leptin resistance in this risk profile. DESIGN Case control study. SETTING Sleep Laboratory, Queen Mary Hospital, University of Hong Kong, China. METHODS Thirty OSA subjects were matched with 30 non-OSA subjects for body mass index (BMI), age, sex, and menopausal st...
