Abstrakt: Rationale: Although both type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) and obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) are independently recognized as risk factors for cardiovascular disease, little is known about their interaction.Objectives: We hypothesized that T2DM and OSA act synergistically to increase vascular risk, and that treatment of OSA would improve vascular reactivity in patients with T2DM plus OSA.Methods: Cross-sectional study of 141 adults with T2DM, OSA, T2DM plus OSA, and control subjects, followed by a 3-month, parallel-arm, randomized, placebo-controlled trial comparing active and sham continuous positive airway pressure (CPAP) in 53 adults with T2DM plus OSA. Endothelium-dependent macro- and microvascular reactivity (flow-mediated dilation [FMD] of the brachial artery and acetylcholine-induced dilation of forearm microvasculature, respectively) and cardiovascular magnetic resonance to assess left- and right-ventricular mass/volume.Results: Mean (±SD) FMD was 6.1 (±4.0)%, 7.3 (±3.6)%, 6.8 (±4.5)%, and 4.8 (±2.9)% in control subjects, T2DM only, OSA only, and T2DM plus OSA, respectively. We observed a significant T2DM × OSA interaction on FMD, such that the mean effect of OSA in those with T2DM was 3.1% (95% confidence interval [CI], 0.6 to 5.6) greater than the effect of OSA in those without T2DM. A total of 3 months of CPAP resulted in a mean absolute increase in FMD of 0.3% (95% CI, -1.9 to 2.5; primary endpoint), with a net improvement of 1.1% (95% CI, -1.4 to 3.6) among those with adherence of 4 h/night or greater. A significant T2DM × OSA interaction was found for both left ventricular (LV) and right ventricular end-diastolic volume, such that OSA was associated with a 22.4 ml (95% CI, 3.2 to 41.6) greater LV end-diastolic volume and 23.2 ml (95% CI, 2.6 to 43.8) greater right ventricular end-diastolic volume in those with T2DM compared with the impact of OSA in those without T2DM. We observed a net improvement in LV end-diastolic volume of 8.7 ml (95% CI, -7.0 to 24.4).Conclusions: The combination of T2DM plus OSA is associated with macrovascular endothelial dysfunction beyond that observed with either disease alone. CPAP for 3 months did not significantly improve macrovascular endothelial function in the intent-to-treat analysis; however, cardiovascular magnetic resonance results suggest that there may be a beneficial effect of CPAP on LV diastolic volume.Clinical trial registered with www.clinicaltrials.gov (NCT01629862).
