Core Tip |
Obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) is a condition of chronic intermittent hypoxia (CIH) during sleep. We evaluated the efficacy of reoxygenation by adequate effective continuous positive airway pressure (CPAP) therapy for liver injury in nonalcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD) with OSA patients. The results indicate that effective CPAP therapy for 6 mo in OSA patients with NAFLD could significantly improve serum transaminase activities independent of body weight (BW) changes. Some NAFLD patients could be associated with CIH due to OSA independent of BW changes. We propose that all NAFLD patients be analyzed by polysomnography for the diagnosis of OSA if any symptoms related to OSA become apparent. |
