Abstract
BACKGROUND Aneurysmal subarachnoid hemorrhage (aSAH) is known to be triggered by several specific human activities. Sleep, by contrast, has not been considered a triggering activity for aSAH, and clinical characteristics of patients who sustain aSAH during sleep have rarely been reported in the literature. METHODS This is a retrospective analysis on the data acquired through a multicenter aSAH registry. Between January 2019 and December 2021, a total of 732 aSAH patients had been registered into our database. After excluding 109 patients whose activities at aSAH onset had been unidentifiable, the remaining 623 aSAH patients were dichotomized to 59 patients who sustained aSAH during sleep (Sleep group) and 564 patients who sustained aSAH during daytime activities (Awake group). Two-group comparison of demographic variables and multivariate logistic regression analysis were performed to clarify their clinical characteristics and identify potential risk factors. RESULTS The Sleep group exhibited significantly higher frequencies of diabetes (15.5 % vs. 6.4 %, p = 0.01) and antiplatelet use (13.8 % vs. 4.6 %, p=0.004) than the Awake group. Furthermore, multivariate logistic regression analysis showed that diabetes (OR, 3.051; 95 % CI, 1.281-7.268; p = 0.012) and antiplatelet use (OR, 3.640; 95 % CI, 1.422-9.316; p = 0.007) were correlated with aSAH occurring during sleep. There were no significant inter-group differences in the patient outcomes evaluated at discharge. CONCLUSION The current results indicate that risk factors may exist for aSAH occurring during sleep. Further investigations on how comorbidities such as diabetes, antiplatelet use and sleep apnea affect human hemodynamic and hemostatic parameters during sleep is warranted to better understand those relationships.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION Obstructive sleep apnoea (OSA) and diabetes mellitus (DM) are very prevalent diseases frequently associated. Their coexistence is independently associated with an increased prevalence of cardiovascular comorbidities. As this association is underdiagnosed, it is necessary to optimise clinical suspicion by studying independent predictors of DM or prediabetes (preDM) in patients with OSA. METHOD A simple randomised case-control study, matched for sex, body mass index (BMI) and age, aimed to study the association of OSA with DM and preDM and to identify independent predictors for both diseases in people with OSA. RESULTS We included 208 cases with OSA and 208 controls without OSA. In the former, 18.8% had DM compared to only 10.1% in the latter (P=.00). Prevalence of preDM was 41.8% vs. 10.6%, respectively (P=.00). One hundred and twenty-four cases (59.6%) reported excessive daytime sleepiness (EDS) (Epworth scale, 10.5±3.1) vs. 24.5% of the control group (Epworth scale, 6.6±2.9). Apnoea-hypopnoea index (AHI) and O2 desaturation indices (IDO, CT90 and CT80) were significantly higher in the case group. The risk of MD was related to age, nocturnal hypoxaemia and EDS. The risk of pre-MD was related to BMI and AHI. CONCLUSIONS OSA is associated with DM and preDM. Age, nocturnal hypoxaemia and EDS are predictors of DM. BMI and AHI are predictors of pre-MD.

Abstract
Abstract
Background
Obstructive Sleep Apnea (OSA) is one of the diseases related to diabetes. Considering the varying prevalence of OSA in patients with type 2 diabetes in different parts of the world, in order to aggregate the results and come to a general review about the topic mentioned, the current study performed a systematic review and meta-analysis of OSA in patients with type 2 diabetes.
Methods
In this study, the international databases (PubMed, Scopus, Web of science, and Cochran library) were searched without time limit using keywords diabetes, obstructive sleep apnea, and prevalence or epidemiology. Homogeneity was investigated among studies using Cochran Q test and I2 index. Given the heterogeneity of studies, random effect model was used to estimate the prevalence of OSA. Meta-regression was used to investigate the effect of quantitative variables on the prevalence of OSA. Comprehensive Meta-analysis (CMA) software was used for data analysis.
Results
Twenty studies were included in the meta-analysis. In these 19 studies, the total number of patients with type 2 diabetes was 10,754, with a mean age of 58.6 ± 4.1 years. Final estimation of OSA prevalence was calculated to be 56.0%. The results of meta-regression showed the prevalence of OSA increased with a rise in the mean age, the percentage of male sex, body mass index, and sample size.
Conclusion
Given the high prevalence of OSA in patients with type 2 diabetes, weight control can partly mitigate their problems and possibly reduce OSA prevalence.

Abstract
AIM This study aimed to systematically review the prevalence of diagnosed sleep disorders in people with diabetes and to determine the association between sleep disorders and blood glucose levels and diabetes outcomes. METHODS We conducted a literature search in the following databases: MEDLINE (Pubmed), EMBASE, CINAHL, PsychInfo and Web of Science Citation Index. Meta-analysis (random-effects models) was conducted to estimate the prevalence of sleep disorders in people with diabetes. RESULTS Forty-one articles measured the prevalence of sleep disorders in adults with diabetes. The estimated pooled prevalence of sleep disorders in diabetes was estimated to be 52% (95% CI 42-63%). The highest pooled prevalence was observed for unspecified sleep apnea (69%; 95% CI: 59-78%), followed by obstructive sleep apnea (60%; 95% CI 39-80%), and restless leg syndrome (27%; 95% CI 20-34%). Eleven studies examined the association between sleep disorders and diabetes control and complications. The presence of comorbid sleep disorders was associated with increased diabetes outcomes. CONCLUSIONS Diagnosed sleep disorders are highly prevalent in people with diabetes. Sleep disorders are associated with diabetes outcomes, though there was considerable heterogeneity across studies.

Abstract
STUDY OBJECTIVES After cerebrovascular events, obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) is associated with poor functional outcomes, an increased risk of recurrent stroke, and mortality. Although the significant under-diagnosis of OSA is likely multifactorial in nature, factors associated with attendance at in-laboratory polysomnography (iPSG) are poorly understood. We evaluated demographic, lifestyle, and clinical variables that predicted attendance at iPSG in a cohort of patients with stroke and transient ischemic attack (TIA) enrolled in a clinical research study. METHODS Demographic, lifestyle, and clinical variables were summarized for the patients who did and did not attend iPSG. Multivariable binary logistic regression analyses were performed to examine four models that thematically aggregated predictors expected to relate to attendance. Further, t-tests for continuous variables, and chi-squared tests for categorical variables, were performed to uncover differences between the two groups. RESULTS In the 122 participants included in our analyses, mean age was 66.6 ± 15.7 (64.8% males) with only 59.0% of participants attending iPSG. Only Model 1, which investigated the impact of demographic, lifestyle, and cognitive status, was significant (χ2 = 35.31, p < 0.001). Among our variables, (1) younger age, (2) better cognition, (3) higher level of education, and (4) never-smoking status significantly predicted attendance at iPSG. CONCLUSION By understanding the relationship between variables that significantly predict attendance, we hope our results will translate into practices that promote iPSG attendance, which may help improve outcomes in the stroke/TIA population.

Abstract
Saturated fatty acids (FAs) induce apoptosis in the human pancreatic NES2Y β-cell line while unsaturated FAs have nearly no detrimental effect. Moreover, unsaturated FAs are capable of inhibiting the pro-apoptotic effect of saturated FAs. Hypoxia is also known to have deleterious effects on β-cells function and viability. In the present study, we have tested the modulatory effect of hypoxia on the effect of FAs on the growth and viability of the human pancreatic NES2Y β-cells. This study represents the first study testing hypoxia effect on effects of FAs in pancreatic β-cells as well as in other cell types. We showed that hypoxia increased the pro-apoptotic effect of saturated stearic acid (SA). Endoplasmic reticulum stress signaling seemed to be involved while redistribution of FA transporters fatty acid translocase/cluster of differentiation 36 (FAT/CD36) and fatty acid-binding protein (FABP) do not seem to be involved in this effect. Hypoxia also strongly decreased the protective effect of unsaturated oleic acid (OA) against the pro-apoptotic effect of SA. Thus, in the presence of hypoxia, OA was unable to save SA-treated β-cells from apoptosis induction. Hypoxia itself had only a weak detrimental effect on NES2Y cells. Our data suggest that hypoxia could represent an important factor in pancreatic β-cell death induced and regulated by FAs and thus in the development of type 2 diabetes mellitus.

Abstract
IMPORTANCE The presence of preexisting type 1 or type 2 diabetes in pregnancy increases the risk of adverse maternal and neonatal outcomes, such as preeclampsia, cesarean delivery, preterm delivery, macrosomia, and congenital defects. Approximately 0.9% of the 4 million births in the United States annually are complicated by preexisting diabetes. OBSERVATIONS Women with diabetes have increased risk for adverse maternal and neonatal outcomes, and similar risks are present with type 1 and type 2 diabetes. Both forms of diabetes require similar intensity of diabetes care. Preconception planning is very important to avoid unintended pregnancies and to minimize risk of congenital defects. Hemoglobin A1c goals are less than 6.5% at conception and less than 6.0% during pregnancy. It is also critical to screen for and manage comorbid illnesses, such as retinopathy and nephropathy. Medications known to be unsafe in pregnancy, such as angiotensin-converting enzyme inhibitors and statins, should be discontinued. Women with obesity should be screened for obstructive sleep apnea, which is often undiagnosed and can result in poor outcomes. Blood pressure goals must be considered carefully because lower treatment thresholds may be required for women with nephropathy. During pregnancy, continuous glucose monitoring can improve glycemic control and neonatal outcomes in women with type 1 diabetes. Insulin is first-line therapy for all women with preexisting diabetes; injections and insulin pump therapy are both effective approaches. Rates of severe hypoglycemia are increased during pregnancy; therefore, glucagon should be available to the patient and close contacts should be trained in its use. Low-dose aspirin is recommended soon after 12 weeks' gestation to minimize the risk of preeclampsia. The importance of discussing long-acting reversible contraception before and after pregnancy, to allow for appropriate preconception planning, cannot be overstated. CONCLUSIONS AND RELEVANCE Preexisting diabetes in pregnancy is complex and is associated with significant maternal and neonatal risk. Optimization of glycemic control, medication regimens, and careful attention to comorbid conditions can help mitigate these risks and ensure quality diabetes care before, during, and after pregnancy.

Abstract
Introduction: Many studies on the impact of type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) on sleep breathing have shown a higher prevalence and severity of sleep apnea-hypopnea syndrome (SAHS) in those with T2DM. Moreover, an increased activity of the sympathetic nervous system has been described in both pathologies. This cross-sectional study aimed to assess sympathetic activity in patients with T2DM, and to investigate the relationship between sympathetic activity and polysomnographic parameters. Materials and Methods: Thirty-six patients with T2DM without known clinical macrovascular nor pulmonary disease and 11 controls underwent respiratory polygraphy, and their cardiac variability and 24-h urine total metanephrines were measured. Results: SAHS was highly prevalent with a mean apnea-hypopnea index (AHI) in the range of moderate SAHS. In patients with T2DM, the nocturnal concentration of total metanephrines in urine were higher than diurnal levels [247.0 (120.0-1375.0) vs. 210.0 (92.0-670.0), p = 0.039]. The nocturnal total metanephrine concentration was positively and significantly associatedwith the percentage of sleeping time spent with oxygen saturation <90%(CT90). In the entire population and in subjects with T2DM, the multivariate regression analysis showed a direct interaction between the nocturnal concentration of urine metanephrines and the CT90. Conclusion: These findings suggest that the increase in sympathetic activity previously described in patients with T2DM could be mediated through nocturnal breathing disturbances. The diagnosis and treatment of SAHS may influence sympathetic activity disorders and may contribute to an improvement in T2DM and cardiovascular risk.

Abstract
AIMS Sleep duration (SD) has been associated with metabolic outcomes. Is there an independent association between short/long SD and glycemic control (GC) in type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) outpatients, compared to intermediate SD? Employing up-to-date definitions of SD, we comprehensively considered, simultaneously, all known confounding/mediating factors that recently emerged in the literature: age, gender, diet, physical activity, obesity, night pain, nocturnal diuresis, sleep quality, chronotype, sleep apnea, depressive symptoms, alcohol, caffeine, tobacco, number of endocrinologist appointments, T2DM family history, and sleep medication. METHODS A cross-sectional study of 140 consecutive T2DM outpatients, ages 40-65, glycohemoglobin (HbA 1c ) goal ≤ 7. We searched for variables (including HbA1c) significantly associated with short (<6 hours) or long (>8 hours) SD, in comparison to intermediate SD (6-8 hours). RESULTS Higher HbA1c levels increased the chance of belonging to the group that sleeps <6 hours (p ≤ 0.001). Better sleep quality, nocturnal diuresis, and morningness increased the chance of belonging to the group that sleeps >8 hours (p < 0.05). CONCLUSIONS There is an independent association between short SD and elevated HbA1c, in real-world T2DM outpatients. Future interventional studies could evaluate weather consistent, long-term sleep extension, from <6 hours to 7-9 hours per 24 hours, improves GC in T2DM outpatients.

Abstract
Sleep Disturbances in General Practitioners' Offices: From Screening to Initial Therapy - Update 2019 Abstract. The field of sleep medicine has established internationally as an interdisciplinary specialization. Due to prevailing evidence, sleep disturbances are listed in a separate chapter in the new ICD 11 classification system. With the International Classification of Sleep Disorders (ICSD-3rd version) a standalone classification system exists. In Switzerland, one third of the population suffers from sleep disturbances. Even differential diagnosis is hard to establish. The current article aims at practitioners, who are frequently confronted with sleep complaints and must categorize, triage and initially treat their patients with simple screening methods.

Abstract
PURPOSE Our study primarily aimed to investigate health-related quality of life (HRQoL) in type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) patients with different risk for obstructive sleep apnea (OSA). PATIENTS AND METHODS This cross-sectional, questionnaire-based study included 466 adult patients with T2DM on regular visit to Center for Diabetes of University Hospital of Split from April to September 2017. All subjects underwent detailed anamnestical evaluation and physical examination with anthropometric measurements. Additionally, all subjects completed STOP (Snoring, Tiredness, Observed apnea, and high blood Pressure) questionnaire to assess risk for OSA, Epworth Sleepiness Scale to assess daytime sleepiness, and Medical Outcomes Study Short Form-36 (SF-36) instrument to evaluate HRQoL. RESULTS Most subjects (N=312, 67.0%) represented high-risk OSA group based on STOP questionnaire (STOP score ≥2). Statistically significantly lower HRQoL scores in all SF-36 dimensions were found in T2DM patients with high risk for OSA compared to low-risk group (P<0.001). STOP score showed statistically significant negative correlation with all SF-36 dimensions (P<0.001). In multiple linear regression analysis, STOP score was confirmed as statistically significant independent predictor for all SF-36 components, adjusted for body mass index, age, glycated hemoglobin, and T2DM duration (P<0.001). CONCLUSION Our study found that high proportion of patients with T2DM are at high risk for OSA. Furthermore, we showed that group of T2DM patients with high risk for OSA has lower HRQoL in all SF-36 dimensions compared to low-risk patients.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES To evaluate the possible association between intermittent hypoxia (IH) and HbA1c in patients with insufficient control type of 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM). MATERIAL AND METHODS In this cross-sectional study 183 patients with HbAc1≥7% underwent three-channel overnight monitoring (ApneaLink) and completed Berlin Questionnaire, Epworth Sleepiness Scale and Pittsburgh Sleep Quality Index. Patients were divided in two groups, based on the cut-off value of oxygen desaturation index≥15. RESULTS AND CONCLUSION There were 79 (43%) patients with intermittent hypoxia, which was associated with poorer glycaemic control, defined as HbA1c>8.7% (sample median) in the univariate analysis and after adjustment for body mass index OR 2,40 (CI 1.21-4.95, p=0.021). Neither of three questionnaires yielded satisfactory results as a screening method in patients with T2DM. There is a need to implement instrumental screening of sleep-disordered breathing in this population and to study the effects of CPAP-therapy on glycaemic control and carbohydrate metabolism.

Abstract
Obstructive sleep apnoea (OSA) is very common in patients with Type 2 diabetes (T2D), which is not surprising considering that obesity is a common risk factor for both conditions. In general population studies, OSA has been shown to be associated with several comorbidities including increased risk of road traffic accidents, T2D, hypertension and lack of nocturnal dipping of blood pressure, hyperlipidaemia, increased inflammation, increased risk of cardiovascular disease and mortality, increased risk of atrial fibrillation, worse quality of life, and erectile dysfunction. However, the impact of OSA on diabetes-related vascular and metabolic outcomes remains unclear. Furthermore, the impact of continuous positive airway pressure (CPAP) treatment in patients with T2D is also unclear. This unclarity regarding the impact of OSA and CPAP in patients with T2D has possibly contributed to the lack of screening for OSA in patients with T2D in the UK despite the high prevalence of OSA in patients with T2D. In this commentary, I provide an overview about OSA with a particular focus on its role and impact in patients with T2D.

Abstract
STUDY OBJECTIVES To assess and compare obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) prevalence in South Asians and White Europeans with type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM). Secondary aims included exploring possible causes for observed ethnic differences. METHODS A cross-sectional study of patients with T2DM recruited from secondary care diabetes clinics. OSA was defined as an apnea-hypopnea index (AHI) ≥ 5 events/h using home-based, multi-channel respiratory monitoring. RESULTS Two hundred thirty-four patients (105 South Asian and 129 White Europeans) were studied. The prevalence of mild, moderate, and severe OSA in South Asians was 36.2% (n = 38/105), 9.5% (n = 10/105), and 5.7% (n = 6/105) respectively. After adjustment, OSA was associated with a higher body mass index in South Asians. OSA was significantly less common in South Asians compared to White Europeans (51.4% [54/105] versus 75.2% [97/129], P < .001). OSA was also less severe in South Asians compared to White Europeans (median [interquartile range]: AHI 5.1 [1.4-11.5] versus 8.5 [5.0-20.7] events/h, P < .001; time spent with oxygen saturations < 90% 0.5 [0.0-2.9]% versus 4.0 [0.7-14.4]%, P < .001). Logistic regression showed that only obesity measures explained the ethnic differences in OSA. CONCLUSIONS South Asians with T2DM are at considerable risk of OSA. OSA in South Asians was associated with obesity. However, OSA prevalence was lower in South Asians than in White Europeans. Obesity measures accounted for the observed ethnic differences. Examining factors contributing to ethnic differences will be important to inform screening and treatment strategies.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Polysomnograms are not always feasible when sleep disordered breathing (SDB) is suspected in hospitalized patients. Portable monitoring is a practical alternative; however, it has not been recommended in patients with comorbidities. OBJECTIVE We evaluated the accuracy of portable monitoring in hospitalized patients suspected of having SDB. DESIGN Prospective observational study. SETTING Large, public, urban, teaching hospital in the United States. PARTICIPANTS Hospitalized patients suspected of having SDB. METHODS Patients underwent portable monitoring combined with actigraphy during the hospitalization and then polysomnography after discharge. We determined the accuracy of portable monitoring in predicting moderate to severe SDB and the agreement between the apnea hypopnea index measured by portable monitor (AHIPM) and by polysomnogram (AHIPSG). RESULTS Seventy-one symptomatic patients completed both tests. The median time between the two tests was 97 days (IQR 25-75: 24-109). Forty-five percent were hospitalized for cardiovascular disease. Mean age was 52±10 years, 41% were women, and the majority had symptoms of SDB. Based on AHIPSG, SDB was moderate in 9 patients and severe in 39. The area under the receiver operator characteristics curve for AHIPM was 0.8, and increased to 0.86 in patients without central sleep apnea; it was 0.88 in the 31 patients with hypercapnia. For predicting moderate to severe SDB, an AHIPM of 14 had a sensitivity of 90%, and an AHIPM of 36 had a specificity of 87%. The mean±SD difference between AHIPM and AHIPSG was 2±29 event/hr. CONCLUSION In hospitalized, symptomatic patients, portable monitoring is reasonably accurate in detecting moderate to severe SDB.

Abstract
PURPOSE OF REVIEW Obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) has been shown to be an independent risk factor for the development and progression of diabetes mellitus. Interestingly, there is also a strong correlation between OSA and the development and progression of chronic kidney disease (CKD). As diabetes mellitus is the most common cause of CKD, in this review we summarize the current literature regarding this interconnecting relationship between OSA, CKD, and diabetes mellitus. The literature increasingly supports a bidirectional relationship between CKD and OSA among diabetes mellitus patients leading to an increased rate of progression of diabetic nephropathy. RECENT FINDINGS There is growing evidence that among patients with diabetes mellitus, OSA may be a strong risk factor for the development of diabetic nephropathy. The treatment of OSA in CKD patients may play a role in attenuating the rate of the progression of CKD. SUMMARY Clinicians should have a low threshold for evaluating diabetic patients with CKD for OSA. Further studies examining if treatment of OSA would improve the outcomes of CKD patients in general and diabetic CKD patients in particular are needed.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE Obstructive sleep apnea is a common disorder associated with aging and obesity. Apneas cause repeated arousals, intermittent hypoxia, and oxidative stress. Changes in glucolipidic profile occur in apnea patients, independently of obesity. Animal models of sleep apnea induce hyperglycemia. This study aims to evaluate the effect of the antioxidants melatonin and N-acetylcysteine on glucose, triglyceride, and cholesterol levels in animals exposed to intermittent hypoxia. MATERIALS AND METHODS Two groups of Balb/c mice were exposed to intermittent hypoxia (n = 36) or sham intermittent hypoxia (n = 36) for 35 days. The intermittent hypoxia group underwent a total of 480 cycles of 30 seconds reducing the inspired oxygen fraction from 21% to 7 ± 1% followed by 30 seconds of normoxia, during 8 hours daily. Melatonin or N-acetylcysteine were injected intraperitonially daily from day 21 on. RESULTS At day 35, glucose levels were significantly higher in the intermittent hypoxia group than in the control group. The intermittent hypoxia groups receiving N-acetylcysteine and vehicle showed higher glucose levels than the group receiving melatonin. The lipid profile was not affected by intermittent hypoxia or antioxidant administration. CONCLUSIONS The present results suggest that melatonin prevents the well-recognized increase in glucose levels that usually follows exposure to intermittent hypoxia. Further exploration of the role of melatonin in sleep apnea is warranted.

Abstract
Obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) is increasingly recognized as an important risk factor for arrhythmogenesis. Epidemiological and clinical studies have suggested a strong association between OSA and atrial fibrillation (AF). With the increasing global epidemic of obesity, the incidence of OSA is also expected to rise. Various mechanisms mediated through adverse electrical and structural changes have been proposed to explain the increased risk of AF in patients with OSA. Multiple studies have also observed a greater risk of AF recurrence after cardioversion and catheter ablation (CA) in the patients with untreated OSA. The epidemiological and pathophysiological associations between OSA and AF have significant implications on the treatment outcomes of rhythm-control strategies for AF. Adequate screening and optimal management of OSA are of key importance to help improve the clinical outcomes following cardioversion and CA. In this review, we sought to describe the role of various mechanisms by which OSA mediates the pathogenesis of AF and contributes to adverse outcomes following CA.

Abstract
Purpose: Obstructive sleep apnea hypopnea syndrome (OSAHS), a common sleep and breathing disorder, is independently associated with metabolic dysfunction, including impaired glucose tolerance and insulin resistance. Intermittent hypoxia (IH), a pathological component of OSAHS, increases oxidative stress damage to pancreatic β-cells in animal models resembling patients with OSAHS. However, the precise mechanisms of IH-induced pancreatic β-cell dysfunction are not fully understood. In the present study, we established a mice model to investigate the underlying mechanisms of oxidative stress in IH-induced pancreatic β-cell apoptosis through antioxidant N-acetylcysteine (NAC) pretreatment. Methods: Twenty-four Wistar rats were randomly divided into four experimental groups: normal control group, intermittent normoxia group, IH group and antioxidant intervention group. Pancreatic β-cell apoptosis rates were detected by terminal deoxynucleotidyl transferase-mediated dUTP-nick end-labeling; Bcl-2 and Bax protein expressions were detected by immunohistochemistry staining and western blotting. Results: In our study, we demonstrated that IH exposure causes an increased activation of pancreatic β-cell apoptosis compared with that in the normal control group and intermittent normoxia group, accompanied by the downregulation of Bcl-2 and upregulation of Bax (P<0.05). Furthermore, compared with the IH group, antioxidant (NAC) pretreatment significantly decreased IH-mediated β-cell apoptosis and reversed the ratio of Bcl-2/Bax expression (P<0.05). Conclusion: Taken together, these results demonstrate a critical role of oxidative stress in the regulation of apoptosis through Bcl-2 and Bax signaling. The antioxidant NAC has a protective effect against IH-induced pancreatic β-cell apoptosis.

Abstract
PURPOSE OF REVIEW The relationship between obstructive sleep apnoea (OSA) and dysglycaemia is well established. However, uncertainty remains as to the extent that obesity mediates this relationship. The impact of OSA treatment on glucose metabolism and the consequences of having OSA in patients with diabetes is unclear. This review aims to summarize the latest evidence regarding the links between OSA and dysglycaemia. RECENT FINDINGS OSA is associated with insulin resistance in lean individuals and predicts insulin resistance worsening longitudinally. Continuous positive airway pressure (CPAP) lowers insulin resistance in CPAP-compliant patients. OSA is associated with impaired β-cell function. In patients with type 2 diabetes (T2D), the association between OSA and glycosylated haemoglobin (HbA1c) is related to nocturnal hypoxaemia. Apnoea hypopnoea index (AHI) during rapid eye movement (REM) (not non-REM) sleep is associated with HbA1c. In-laboratory, supervised CPAP improves glycaemia. OSA is associated with and predicts the progression of some diabetic vascular complications. Intensive lifestyle intervention in patients with T2D improves OSA independent of weight loss. SUMMARY OSA is associated with insulin resistance and β-cell dysfunction independent of obesity. OSA is associated with HbA1c and vascular complications in patients with T2D. CPAP might improve insulin resistance and glycaemic measures. Lifestyle intervention has a significant impact on AHI in patients with T2D.

Abstract
Type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) and obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) are both common major public health concerns. Epidemiological and clinical evidence postulates that OSA may be a causal factor in the pathogenesis of T2DM. This review examines recent empirical developments in theory, research, and practice regarding T2DM and OSA. We first examined the data from 10 studies that covered 281 patients with T2DM who used continuous positive airway pressure therapy, followed by research that describes how hypoxia/reoxygenation in OSA may be key triggers that initiate or contribute to the status of insulin resistance and inflammation. We then propose mechanisms that may relate diabetes with OSA. The issues that should be addressed in the future are outlined. We suggest that intervention with continuous positive airway pressure may improve diabetic symptoms and should be encouraged for patients with diabetes.

Abstract
With the growing prevalence of obesity, the burden of type 2 diabetes is increasing. Obstructive sleep apnoea (OSA) is a very common medical condition that is associated with increased risk of cardiovascular disease and mortality. Obesity is a common risk factor for OSA and type 2 diabetes and hence it is not surprising that OSA and type 2 diabetes are interlinked. OSA has been shown to be an independent risk factor for the development of incident pre-diabetes/type 2 diabetes. OSA is also associated with worse glycaemic control and vascular disease in patients with type 2 diabetes. However, evidence for the benefits of OSA treatment in patients with type 2 diabetes is still lacking. The aim of this article is to provide an overview of OSA, the relationships between OSA and dysglycaemia and the impact of OSA in patients with type 2 diabetes, highlighting recent advances in the field.
