Slow-wave sleep is associated with incident hypertension in patients with obstructive sleep apnea: a cross-sectional study

Objective This study aimed to examine the association between slow-wave sleep ([SWS] N3 stage) and the risk of hypertension in patients with obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) or primary snorers. Methods A retrospective cross-sectional study of 1145 participants who were evaluated for suspected OSA at ou...

Description
Summary:Objective This study aimed to examine the association between slow-wave sleep ([SWS] N3 stage) and the risk of hypertension in patients with obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) or primary snorers. Methods A retrospective cross-sectional study of 1145 participants who were evaluated for suspected OSA at our Sleep Medical Center were included. Among these participants, 1022 had OSA and 123 were primary snorers. Logistic regression modeling was performed to evaluate the association between the prevalence of hypertension and combined OSA and SWS based on polysomnographic measurements. Results Patients with OSA in the lowest SWS quartile (quartile 1,
