Metabolic and Neurobiological changes after Continuous Positive Airway Pressure treatment for Obstructive Sleep Apnea

点击翻译按钮获取中文摘要

CPAP is the preferred treatment for patients with OSA because of its well-proven ability to decrease sleepiness and improve blood pressure control. This study will definitively establish if CPAP can also improve markers of cardio-metabolic health, such as visceral fat, insulin sensitivity, central blood pressure and arterial stiffness. The results of the study will shed light on the broader health consequences of OSA and contribute to the development of more targeted treatment strategies.
