The effects of obstructive sleep apnea on blood pressure variability and load in patients with hypertension
Background Hypertension frequently coexists with obstructive sleep apnea (OSA), and their interplay substantially impacts the prognosis of affected individuals.

Summary: | Background
Hypertension frequently coexists with obstructive sleep apnea (OSA), and their interplay substantially impacts the prognosis of affected individuals. Investigating the influence of OSA on blood pressure variability (BPV) and blood pressure load (BPL) in hypertensive patients has become a focal point of clinical research.
Methods
This cross-sectional study recruited hypertensive patients (
n
= 265) without discrimination and classified them into four groups based on their apnea–hypopnea index (AHI): control group (
n
= 40), AHI |
