“…These include studies by Ancoli-Israel et al ., 32 Sforza et al . 26 and Hayashida et al 25 On further analysis of the Ancoli-Israel et al ., 32 study in 1993, when controlled for BMI, there was no significant change in Respiratory Disturbance Index or sleep indices over 8.5 years of follow up. This suggested that the reported OSA regression may have been potentially caused by reduction in BMI over the study time period.…”

“…The effect of CPAP treatment on AHI after CPAP withdrawal is unclear, especially in OSA patients screened from the population. Many previous studies have investigated the natural evolution of OSA severity, 11 , 12 , 13 but few studies focus on the effect of CPAP treatment on that in the general population. Active OSA screening and early intervention in the general populations may be an innovative model to decrease OSA severity and improve cardiovascular outcomes.…”
