This study investigates the effects of exposure to intermittent hypoxia on cardiovascular autonomic control and metabolic function in obese children with obstructive sleep apnea (OSA). Each subject underwent: (1) a polysomnography; (2) morning fasting blood samples subsequent FSIVGTT; (3) noninvasive measurement respiration, arterial pressure, heart rate during supine standing postures. Assessment adiposity was performed using DEXA scan. From these measurements, we deduced pertinent...
