This book aims to provide a comprehensive and clear review of the
current knowledge of the relationship between obstructive sleep
apnea (OSA) and cardiovascular and metabolic diseases, a subject of
concern to a wide range of specialists and general practitioners.
Separate chapters describe: the definition, symptoms and sequelae
of OSA, and the diagnostic strategies and treatment options for
adults with OSA according to the American Academy of Sleep
Medicine; pathogenic mechanisms, by which OSA may contribute to the
development and progression of cardiovascular and metabolic
disorders, including inflammation, oxidative stress and thrombosis;
links between OSA and obesity, alterations in glucose metabolism,
metabolic syndrome and liver injury; relationships between OSA,
endothelial dysfunction, autonomic dysfunction and cardiovascular
disorders, and the results of studies investigating the effect of
treatment for OSA on the concomitant cardiovascular disease. Each
chapter summarizes the essential information and is illustrated by
tables and figures, which will aid the readers in their
understanding of the complex systemic interactions involved in this
disease. Reviewed by internationally recognized experts, this
publication will be of benefit to clinicians and scientists in the
fields of pulmonology, cardiology, endocrinology and neurology as
well as to sleep specialists and general practitioners.
