Popis: Type 2 diabetes exerts a negative impact on sleep breathing. It is unknown whether a long-term improvement in glycemic control ameliorates this effect. We conducted an interventional study with 35 patients with type 2 diabetes and obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) to explore this. At home, sleep breathing parameters were assessed at baseline and after a 4-month period in which antidiabetic therapy was intensified. Patients who decreased their body mass index &ge
2kg/m2 were excluded. Those with an HbA1c reduction &ge
0.5% were considered good responders (n = 24). After the follow-up, good responders exhibited an improvement in the apnea&ndash
hypopnea index (AHI: 26-1 (95% IC: 8.6&ndash
95.0) vs. 20.0 (4.0&ndash
62.4) events/hour, p = 0.002) and in time with oxygen saturation below 90% (CT90: 13.3 (0.4&ndash
69.0) vs. 8.1 (0.4&ndash
71.2) %, p = 0.002). No changes were observed in the group of non&ndash
responders (p = 0.722 and p = 0.138, respectively). The percentage of moderate and severe OSA decreased among good responders (p = 0.040). In the wider population, the change in HbA1c correlated positively to decreases in AHI (r = 0.358, p = 0.035) and negatively to increases in the minimum arterial oxygen saturation (r = &minus
0.386, p = 0.039). Stepwise multivariate regression analysis showed that baseline AHI and the absolute change in HbA1c independently predicted decreased AHI (R2 = 0.496). The improvement of glycemic control exerts beneficial effects on sleep breathing parameters in type 2 diabetes, which cannot be attributed merely to weight loss.
