Patients with obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) experience repetitive partial or complete airway collapse during sleep resulting in nocturnal hypoxia-normoxia cycling, and are at increased cardiovascular risk. The number of apneas and hypopneas indexed per hour of sleep (AHI) along with the associated intermittent hypoxia predict the increased cardiovascular risk; thus, their attenuation or prevention are objectives of OSA therapy. Continuous positive airway pressure (CPAP) is the gold-standard treatment for OSA and, when effective, mitigates both the AHI and hypoxemia. As such, it is reasonable to expect CPAP would decrease cardiovascular risk. However, three recent randomized clinical trials of CPAP versus usual care did not find any significant effects of CPAP in attenuating incident cardiovascular events in patients with OSA. In this review, we discuss these studies in addition to potential complementary therapeutic options to CPAP (e.g., neurostimulation) and conclude with suggested therapeutic targets for future interventional studies (e.g., the autonomic nervous system). While these areas of research are exciting, they have yet to be tested to any similar degree of rigor as CPAP. Evidence implicates obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) as a mediator of increased cardiovascular risk. Pathologically, nocturnal hypoxia-normoxia cycling causes many of the deleterious effects of OSA via systemic inflammation, oxidative stress, and sympathetic activation. Recent data suggest continuous positive airway pressure (CPAP), the standard treatment for OSA, does not attenuate cardiovascular risk in these patients. We review potential reasons for these findings including efficacy of CPAP, highlight potential therapeutic targets for future interventional works, and discuss emerging treatments complementary to CPAP for OSA.
