| Abstrakt: | The article examines that treatment of obstructive sleep apnea with continuous positive airway pressure (CPAP) is associated with weight gain over periods ranging from several months. Topics include reports that the mechanisms are conflicting and include reduction in basal metabolic rate (BMR) because of the resolution of OSA and increase in caloric intake, leading to increase in fat and lean body mass. |
