Clinical Trial Summary

Obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) is independently associated with cardiovascular diseases, including myocardial infarction and stroke. OSA may promote atherosclerosis risk factors such as hypertension, diabetes and dyslipidemia and may have direct proatherogenic effects on the vascular wall. A growing number of studies have recently focused on the role of microparticles (MPs) in the atherogenic process. Case-control studies have shown that platelet-, endothelial- and leukocyte-derived MP levels are increased in OSA and that leukocyte-derived MP are released during the night in OSA. Furthermore, experimental evidence shows that MPs from OSA patients induce endothelial dysfunction.

The objective of this prospective study is to evaluate the impact of increased levels of leukocyte derived MPs on the cardiovascular outcomes in patients with prevalent cardiovascular diseases investigated for OSA.


Clinical Trial Description

MPs are small plasma membrane vesicles that can be released by a variety of vascular or blood cells and that contain membrane and cytosolic elements. Case-control studies have shown that platelet-, endothelial- and leukocyte-derived MP levels are increased in OSA. Experimental evidence shows that MPs from OSA patients induce endothelial dysfunction, inflammation, and vascular hyperreactivity when injected to mice.

The impact of increased levels of MPs on the cardiovascular prognosis in OSA patient with prevalent cardiovascular diseases in unknown. ;
