Obesity, obstructive sleep apnoea and metabolic syndrome

Abstract: OSA is increasingly recognized as a major health problem in developed countries. Obesity is the most common risk factor in OSA and hence, the prevalence of OSA is undoubtedly rising given the epidemic of obesity. Recent data also suggest that OSA is highly associated with the metabolic syndrome, and it is postulated that OSA contributes to cardiometabolic dysfunction, and subsequently vasculopathy.Current evidence regarding the magnitude of impact on ultimate cardiovascular morbidity or mortality attributable … Show more

“…1,2 There is increasing evidence, mainly from studies in moderately obese sleep-referred patient cohorts, that obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) may impact negatively on MetS or some of its components, independent of the body mass index (BMI). 3 Furthermore, in a large cross-sectional study of non-selected morbidly obese patients with a high prevalence of MetS, 4 OSA was associated with a worse metabolic profi le independent of BMI, suggesting that OSA plays an important role in the pathogenesis of metabolic dysfunction, even in morbid obesity.…”

“…16 OSA is also associated with metabolic dysregulation, affecting glucose control and risk for diabetes. 17 Undiagnosed and untreated OSA is a significant burden on the healthcare system, with increased healthcare utilization seen in those with untreated OSA, 18 highlighting the importance of early and accurate diagnosis of this common disorder.…”
