Markers of Myocardial Ischemia in Patients with Diabetes Mellitus and Severe Obstructive Sleep Apnea – Impact of Continuous Positive Airway Pressure Therapy

Abstract: Introduction: Diabetes Mellitus (T2DM) and obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) are common disorders that often coexist. Both disorders are associated with an increased risk of cardiovascular complications. Repeated nocturnal hypoxia in diabetic patients suffering also from OSA may result in myocardial ischemia. We evaluated whether myocardial ischemia is detectable by ST-segment depression and elevation of high sensitive Troponin T (hs-cTnT) and N-terminal pro B-type natriuretic peptide (NT-proBNP). We also examined… Show more
