Multicenter StudyAssociation of Diabetic Microvascular Complications and Parameters of Obstructive Sleep Apnea in Patients with Type 2 Diabetes.
Obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) is prevalent in patients with type 2 diabetes, but the influence of OSA on diabetes complications is not clear. We aimed to investigate the association of OSA with chronic diabetes complications in Chinese patients with type 2 diabetes. ⋯ Parameters of nocturnal hypoxemia are associated with DN and renal function of patients with type 2 diabetes. The parameters of hypoxemia may more sensitively reflect the association of OSA and diabetic microvascular complications than AHI.
