obstructive sleep apnea has not been fully elucidated. Matrix metalloproteinases (MMPs) have been associated with both oxidative stress and cardiovascular diseases. Hypoxic conditions were shown to influence MMP expression, secretion and activity. Moreover, matrix metalloproteinases contribute to ischemia/...
Figure 1. Obesity Predisposes to Obstructive Sleep Apnea Anatomic factors that predispose obese patients to obstructive sleep apnea. The concept that OSA may be part of the metabolic syndrome is not new. In 1998, Wilcox et al. proposed the name “syndrome Z” for the combination of the metabol...
Obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) is a major public health problem in the US that afflicts at least 2% to 4% of middle-aged Americans and incurs an estimated annual cost of 3.4 billion dollars. At Stanford, we utilize a multispecialty team approach combining the expertise of sleep medicine ...

Obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) is a major modifiable risk factor of hypertension and hypertensive patients with OSA are at increased risk for cardiovascular diseases. A substantial number of studies have revealed that OSA and hypertension have synergistic effects on the cardiovascular system and, therefor...
