Continuous Positive Airway Pressure Reduces Night-Time Blood Pressure and Heart Rate in Patients With Obstructive Sleep Apnea and Resistant Hypertension: The RHOOSAS Randomized Controlled Trial

Continuous Positive Airway Pressure Reduces Night-Time Blood Pressure and Heart Rate in Patients With Obstructive Sleep Apnea and Resistant Hypertension: The RHOOSAS Randomized Controlled Trial

ObjectiveMost patients with resistant hypertension (RH) have obstructive sleep apnea (OSA). We aimed to determine the impact of OSA and continuous positive airway pressure (CPAP) treatment on the leptin profile and blood pressure (BP) in patients with RH.MethodsAfter an initial case-control study (R...
