 Journal Club: CPAP for the metabolic syndrome in patients with obstructive sleep apnea | File Type: audio/mpeg | Duration: 8:08

Obstructive sleep apnea is associated with an increased prevalence of the metabolic syndrome and its components. Professor SK Sharma (head of the Department of Medicine, All India Institute of Medical Sciences) has investigated whether treatment of obstructive sleep apnea syndrome with continuous positive airway pressure (CPAP) would modify these outcomes. Jennifer Quint (Thorax’s Journal Club editor) speaks to him about his results recently published in The New England Journal of Medicine.See also:http://www.nejm.org/doi/full/10.1056/NEJMoa1103944
