Objective. dTo determine whether CPAP therapy is associated with a lower risk of incident
hypertension. Design, Setting, and Participants. dA prospective cohort study of 1889 …

Question: Is continuous positive airway pressure (CPAP) therapy better than no therapy in
reducing the incidence of hypertension or cardiovascular (CV) events in a cohort of …

BACKGROUND: Obstructive sleep apnea-hypopnea (OSAH) is a risk factor for development
of systemic arterial hypertension (SAH) and can worse the control of established SAH. We …

Hypertension affects about 25% of the adult population worldwide. It ranks as the leading
chronic risk factor for mortality, accounting for 13.5% of all deaths. Half of all strokes and …

Background The predictive factors of blood pressure (BP) response to continuous positive
airway pressure (CPAP) in obstructive sleep apnoea (OSA) are still being explored. We …

Context Systemic hypertension is prevalent among patients with obstructive sleep apnea
(OSA). Short-term studies indicate that continuous positive airway pressure (CPAP) therapy …

Introduction: Randomized controlled trials have not shown a role for continuous positive
airway pressure (CPAP) on the prevention of major cardiovascular (CV) events in …

Background: Obstructive sleep apnea syndrome (OSAS) predisposes to cardiovascular (CV)
events and mortality. Continuous positive airway pressure (CPAP) is considered to decrease …

OBJECTIVE: Previous studies related to evolution of blood pressure (BP) under CPAP
therapy in patients with obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) associating hypertension (HT) had a …

Objective: Few studies analyzed OSAS and resistant hypertension (RH) patients showing a
reduction in blood pressure (BP) of 4-5mmHg for systolic (SBP) and 2-3mmHg for diastolic …
