背景技术背景：大多数的研究，探讨阻塞性睡眠呼吸暂停（OSA）和哮喘之间的关系，集中在打鼾和OSA症状的患病率在哮喘patients. Adultives：这项研究进行测量的反向关系-哮喘的患病率在诊断为OSA的患者。方法：我们评估了哮喘的患病率在所有患者的多导睡眠图诊断有OSA在研究期间。Logistic回归模型被开发来评估OSA患者哮喘的预测因子。结果：606例OSA患者，平均年龄为40+/-14.5岁（66.7%为男性）。213名OSA患者中存在哮喘，患病率为35.1%。体重指数（>35 kg/m2）是哮喘的唯一预测因子。结论：医师应牢记OSA和哮喘之间的联系。当其中一种疾病被诊断出来时，临床医生应该考虑另一种疾病的可能存在。
BACKGROUND: Most of the studies that have explored the relationship between obstructive sleep apnoea (OSA) and asthma have focused on the prevalence of snoring and OSA symptoms in patients with asthma.OBJECTIVES: This study was conducted to measure the reverse relationship - the prevalence of asthma in patients with diagnosed OSA.METHODS: We assessed the prevalence of asthma in all patients diagnosed polysomnographically to have OSA during the study period. A logistic regression model was developed to assess the predictors for asthma in patients with OSA.RESULTS: Six-hundred-and-six patients with OSA with a mean age of 40+/-14.5 yr (66.7% males) were included. Asthma was present in 213 OSA patients - a prevalence of 35.1%. Body mass index (>35 kg/m2) was the only predictor of asthma.CONCLUSIONS: Physicians should keep in mind the link between OSA and asthma. When one of these disorders is diagnosed, clinicians should consider the possible presence of the other.
