- Abstract:
-
© 2015 Asian Pacific Society of Respirology. Obstructive sleep apnoea (OSA) is a prevalent sleep-related breathing disorder associated with adverse cardiovascular outcome. Endothelial dysfunction is one of the proposed mechanistic links between OSA and the increased cardiovascular risk.

Most studies on the effect of CPAP on endothelial function in OSA are limited by th...
