“…In one study of 109 patients with resistant hypertension, OSA was found in 84% of patients with PA, supporting the concept that in subjects with resistant hypertension, the severity of OSA is greater in those patients with hyperaldosteronism and correlates with the degree of aldosterone access [12]. In another study …”

“…PA also overlapped with MS and OSA [6]. Because the coexistence of PA and OSA in patients with resistant hypertension has been reported only by a few authors, we analysed the relationship between PA and OSA, metabolic abnormalities and cardiac structure in patients with true resistant hypertension enrolled in the RESIST-POL Study [6,11,12].…”

“…A SAOS tem sido reconhecida ainda como a principal causa secundária de hipertensão arterial resistente pelas diretrizes europeias e americanas e pela VI Diretriz Brasileira de Hipertensão Arterial 24 . Estudos investigam o papel do hiperaldosteronismo como importante ponte dessa relação, principalmente na SAOS grave, com resultados promissores do uso de antagonista da aldosterona nessa população 25,26 .…”

“…60 Among subjects with resistant hypertension, a significant prevalence of aldosteronism can be observed, that reaches 28%. 20,67,68 In individuals with resistant hypertension, aldosterone excess promotes greater fluid retention, worsening OSA severity. On the other hand, OSA may further increase sympathetic nervous and renin-angiotensin- …”

“…7,[17][18][19] When resistant hypertension is considered, the prevalence of OSA increases up to 64%-83%, depending on the AHI considered for the diagnosis. [20][21][22][23] Diurnal hypersomnia due to frequent nocturnal arousals, asthenia, snoring, and witnessed apnea are the main symptoms of OSA. When OSA is suspected, the Epworth Sleepiness Scale or the Berlin Questionnaire could be used respectively to measure daytime sleepiness and to identify patients at higher risk for OSA.…”
