Association between REM-related mild obstructive sleep apnea and common cardiometabolic diseases

Purpose: To explore the association between rapid eye movement-related obstructive sleep apnea (REM-OSA) and common cardiometabolic diseases (CMDs) in patients with mild OSA.

總結:Purpose: To explore the association between rapid eye movement-related obstructive sleep apnea (REM-OSA) and common cardiometabolic diseases (CMDs) in patients with mild OSA. Methods: This retrospective study was conducted by reviewing the medical records and polysomnograms (PSGs) of patients at Siriraj Hospital. The PSGs of patients diagnosed with mild OSA who had ≥ 15 min of REM sleep were included. REM-OSA was defined if the apnea–hypopnea index (AHI) in REM was ≥ 2 times that of non-REM. Common CMDs included coronary artery disease, stroke, heart failure, diabetes mellitus, and hypertension. Results: The data of 518 patients with a mean age of 48.3 years, 198 males, and mean AHI of 9.8 events/h were analyzed in this study. When compared with the control group, the REM-OSA group (308 patients) were predominantly female (72%), overweight (62%), and had more severe oxygen desaturation, p-value < 0.001. CMDs were significantly more common in the REM-OSA group than in the controls [odds ratio (OR) 1.52, 95% confidence interval 1.04–2.21, p-value = 0.029]. Patients with a REM AHI of ≥ 20 events/h were significantly associated with hypertension compared to those with a REM AHI of < 20 events/h, p-value = 0.001. However, these associations were found not to be statistically significant after controlling for age, sex, BMI, and prevalent coexisting CMD (OR = 1.13, 95% CI: 0.72–1.76, p-value = 0.605). Conclusion: Common CMDs, particularly HT, tend to show an association with REM-OSA in patients with mild OSA, but this association did not reach statistically significant levels.
