Epidemiology Link • Wisconsin prospective sleep cohort (n=709; F/u 4
yrs) linear increase with 3 fold greater risk for HTN in

Ambulatory BP in OSA : A
Meta-Analysis • 12 RCT trials with 572
subjects
• Impact of CPAP vs
placebo on mean ABP
• CPAP decreased mean
ABP by 1.69 mm ( 95% CI
-2.69- 0.69)
• Benefit was greater in
patients with severe OSA
and effective nightly
CPAP use Haenjtjens P, et al. Arch Intern Med 2007; 167: 757-765

Effect of CPAP on Systemic
Hypertension in OSA • Multicenter RCT in 340 patients with OSA (AHI >
15/h) and HTN (140/90)
• CPAP use (n= 169) vs Sham CPAP (n=171)
• Outcome: Change in mean 24 hr BP
• Result: CPAP decreased mean BP by 1.5 (95%
CI, 0.4-2.7; P= 0.01)
• Statistically significant but less than 3 mm
difference the trial was powered to detect
• Conclusion: Modest benefit of CPAP on BP

Long-Term Effect of CPAP in
Hypertensive Non-sleepy OSA
• Multicenter RCT in 359 hypertensive (140/90
non-sleepy OSA (AHI>19; ESS <11) patients
• CPAP (n= 178) used for 1 year
• Outcome:
– SBP decreased by 1.89 mm (95% CI -3.89-0.11; P=
0.0654)
– DP decreased by 2.19 mm ( 95% CI, -3.46-.93;
P= 0.0008)

Association of Severe OSA
and Resistant Hypertension • 284 participants in Heart Biomarker Evaluation in
Apnea Treatment (HeartBEAT) study
• Severe OSA (23.6%) associated with 4 fold
increased risk of resistant HTN (poor BP control
despite 3 or more drugs)
• Conclusion: Untreated severe OSA contributes to
poor BP control and increased cardiovascular risk
despite intensive antihypertensive therapy

Effect of CPAP in OSA and Resistant
Hypertension: HIPARCO Study
• 194 subjects with Drug Resistant HTN (DRH) (>3
drugs) randomized to CPAP (n=98) for 12 weeks and
control (n=96)
• Incidence of OSA 89%
• CPAP use ( mean 5 +/- 1.9 hrs) reduced mean 24 h
BP by 3.1 mm (CI 0.6 to 5.6;p=0.02)
Nocturnal dipping ( 35.9% vs 21.6%; p= 0.02)
CPAP use > 4 hrs subgroup: 4.4 mm decline in 24 BP

use (1.3 mm mean BP decline for each additional hour) Martinez-Garcia M, et al. JAMA 2013; 310: 2407

OSA and Hypertension:
Take Home Message • Both Untreated and Severe OSA are
associated with increased risk for new
incident HTN
• Long-term CPAP treatment has moderate
benefit in BP control in both symtomatic
sleepy and nonsleepy patients and is
related to CPAP adherence > 4 hrs
• CPAP use provides greater benefit in DRH
but BP decline is still limited to 3-4 mm

Diabetes • Several cross sectional epidemiological studies
have shown a link between OSA and Diabetes.
• Wisconsin Sleep Cohort: 987 subjects with 4
yrs prospective follow up
• Prevalence of diabetes greater with AHI>15
(OR 2.3)
• No independent association after adjustment of

Relationship between Severity
of OSA and Diabetes • 544 non diabetic patients and OSA with
prospective follow up (1)
• Risk of diabetes increased by 43% for
every quartile increase in severity of OSA
• CS study of 60 OSA and diabetes: Higher
HbA1C with increasing OSA severity (2)
Mild ( 1.49%)
Mod ( 1.93%)
Severe ( 3.69%)

OSA and Diabetic
Neuropathy • CS study in Type 2 Diabetes (n=234) and OSA
• OSA noted in 65% Mod-severe 40%
• Diabetic Neuropathy (DN) prevalence higher
in OSA ( 60% vs 27%, P < 0.001)
• OSA independently associated with DN ( OR
2.82, 95% CI, 1.44-5.52; P= 0.0034)
• Potential Link: Nitrosative/oxidative stress and
impaired microvascular regulation

CPAP Impact on Metabolic
Function and Insulin Resistance
• Two RCT evaluating metabolic outcomes with therapeutic
CPAP vs sham CPAP in diabetic and non diabetic patients
• Both studies showed no benefit in obese patients 1 , 2
• Another RCT in moderately obese subjects showed
improvement in insulin sensitivity at 1 and 12 weeks with
CPAP 3
• Insulin resistance (IR) in obese OSA patients likely to be
determined by obesity rather than CPAP treatment but
more studies are needed to address this issue

OSA and Motor Vehicle
Accident Risk • OSA with EDS: MVA risk 6 x greater than other
drivers (1)
• Severe OSA: MVA risk 2 x greater than mild-
moderate OSA
• Sleepiness: MWT < 33 min had more line crossings
in real driving test than normals (2)
• Sleep restriction (< 4 hrs) and alcohol (BAC 0.05
gm/dl) in OSA exacerbate MVA risk (3)

Impact of CPAP Treatment on
MVA Risk • Meta-analysis of 15 studies (n= 1300 patients)
• CPAP use was associated with marked reduction in the incidence of: – Real crashes ( OR 0.21; 95% CI 0.04-0.21)
– Near misses ( OR 0.09; 95% CI 0.04-0.21)
– Simulator crashes (SMD – 1.20 events; 95% CI – .75 to – 0.064)
• NNT: Real crashes 1 in 5; Near misses 1 in 2

Sleep Apnea and Carcinogenesis:
Proposed Mechanism
• Enhanced angiogenesis in tumor tissue
with aggressive tumor progression
• Postulation: SDB mediated IH with up-
regulation of vascular endothelial
growth factor (VEGF)
• Observed association of cancer needs
further definition: higher cancer rates vs
aggressive tumor biology

Sleep Apnea: Worse than you
Thought • Sleep Apnea is chronic systemic
disorder
• Severity of sleep apnea is related to AHI
and extent of desaturation (IH)
• Morbidity and mortality is related to
cardiovascular, metabolic, cognitive and
cancer
• CPAP benefits are linked to effective
use of CPAP
