Obstructive sleep apnoea and lung function, and their association with nocturnal hypoxemia: results from the Swedish CArdioPulmonary bioimage Study (SCAPIS) - a cross-sectional study.

ABSTRACT: Obstructive sleep apnoea (OSA) and its associations with lung function.

Background

OSA is highly prevalent and characterised by abnormal respiration during sleep. This large, population-based study aimed to investigate the associations between OSA and lung function in subjects aged 50-64 years.

Method

The population-based Swedish CArdioPulmonary bioimage Study includes information on anthropometry, comorbidities and spirometry. The current analysis included data from three centres (Gothenburg, Umeå and Uppsala) on whole-night respiratory polygraphy as a meta-analysis examining the overall effect size of lung function on sleep apnoea severity, expressed as ß-coefficient after stratifying for sex and adjusting for age, waist circumference and smoking status.
