Evaluation of the Effecting Factors on the Progression of Obstructive Apnea Syndrome

Abstract

The aim of the study is to investigate the impacts of various etiological factors and/or co-morbiities on increasing clinical severity profiles of obstructive sleep apnea syndrome (OSAS). 172 subjects who were admitted with daytime sleepiness and were informed to have at least one of the apnea symptoms and then were undergone to the diagnostic polysomnography procedure. Patients were divided into four subgroups based on their apnea-hypoapnea indices. Simple snoring group was accepted as the control group for comparisons. Simple snoring and mild, moderate and severe OSAS were demonstrated in 50 (29.1%), 38 (22.1%), 43 (25%) and 41 (23.8%) of patients based on AHI values. For severe OSAS male sex and body mass index and for moderate OSAS hypertension and hyperlipidemia were statistically higher based on correlative evaluations (p<0.05). The deteriorating effects of BMI and diabetes on functions of nerves and muscles could be considered to be responsible of the increasing severity of OSAS
