Association of obstructive sleep apnea with cardiovascular outcomes after percutaneous coronary intervention: A systematic review and meta-analysis.

ABSTRACT: The relationship between obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) and adverse cardiovascular outcomes in patients undergoing percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) remains unclear. We performed a systematic review and meta-analysis to assess the impact of OSA on subsequent cardiovascular events after PCI.We searched the PubMed, EMBASE, and Cochrane library from their inceptions to August 5, 2017. We included cohort studies that described the association between OSA (based on apnea-hypopnea index) and cardiovascular outcomes after PCI with stenting. The primary endpoint was major adverse cardiovascular event (MACE), including all-cause or cardiovascular death, myocardial infarction, stroke, repeat revascularization, or heart failure. Outcomes data were pooled using random effects models and heteroge
