Study Objectives: We investigated the associations between multiple sleep dimensions in
obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) and carotid intima-media thickness (CIMT), an early sign of …

Objectives Sleep disorders are emerging risk factors for atherosclerosis. Increased carotid
intima‐media thickness (CCA‐IMT) is a surrogate marker of cardiovascular risk. The aim of …

Background. Obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) is associated with coronary artery disease.
Intermittent hypoxia associated with OSA increases sympathetic activity and may cause …

OBJECTIVE: To elucidate the relationship between excessive daytime sleepiness (EDS) in
obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) and carotid atherosclerosis determined by ultrasonography …

Background The impact of obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) on the development of
atherosclerotic cardiovascular disease (CVD) in the absence of overt CVD or risk factors is …

Background In the present study, we want to demonstrate the correlation between
obstructive sleep apnea syndrome (OSAS) whose independent effect on carotid artery …

Background Insomnia with objective short sleep duration (ISSD) but not insomnia with
normal sleep duration (INSD) is associated with cardiometabolic morbidity. It has been …

Background Obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) and snoring have been reported to be
modifiable risk factors for thick carotid intima-media thickness (CIMT) and carotid …

Obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) is independently associated with dyslipidemia. Previous
studies have demonstrated that sleep fragmentation can impair lipid metabolism. The …

Background and Objectives: The associations between objective sleep architecture and
metabolic parameters have been rarely studied in patients with obstructive sleep apnea …
