Cutting the fat: advances and challenges in sleep apnoea genetics
Obstructive sleep apnoea (OSA), characterised by recurrent upper airway obstruction, intermittent hypoxia and fragmented sleep, affects >15% of the adult population, with prevalence increasing markedly with advancing age and age-related cardiometabolic and pulmonary disorders [1]. Causal associations between OSA and hypertension, coronary heart disease, diabetes, heart failure, atrial fibrillation, stroke and mortality are suggested by numerous large prospective studies [2], raising the possibility that effective treatment of OSA might provide a novel strategy for primary and secondary prevention of cardiometabolic dise...
