Obstructive Sleep Apnea and Systemic Hypertension

Abstract: Our findings do not suggest an association between obstructive sleep apnea and the incidence of SH in the middle-aged general population. Long-term follow-up longitudinal studies are needed to better ascertain this association.

“…Two recent prospective longitudinal cohort studies addressed these questions in normotensive subjects and reached opposing conclusions: The first study reported that after adjusting for relevant confounders, OSA was not associated with incident systolic HTN (1180 subjects over 7.5 year mean follow up period). 4 The second study (also from Spain, 1889 participants, 12.2 years of median follow up) identified an increased hazard ratio for incident hypertension in patients with OSA compared to control subjects, and in this second study, the OSA-HTN association remained independent of confounders including age and obesity. Furthermore, follow-up of this patient cohort revealed a dose response relationship between the severity of OSA and the cumulative incidence of HTN (Figure 2).…”

“…In another cohort study, although a significant relationship between hypertension and OSA was identified, the association was diminished after controlling the BMI (36). Results from Victoria sleep cohort study found no association between OSA and incident systemic hypertension in middle-aged adults (37). …”

“…Analysis of data from large cohort studies (the Wisconsin Sleep Cohort) 133 showed an association, especially among men, but there remains conflicting evidence (The Sleep Heart Health Study; 159 Vitoria Sleep Study 161 ). Based on these findings and the BP data found in randomised trials, 143 Other cardiovascular inputs to the model are given in Table 41.…”
