Abstract

Introduction: The hypertriglyceridemia-waist (HTGW) phenotype is a prevalent risk factor for cardiovascular diseases and obstructive sleep apnea (OSA). However, the impactof the HTGW phenotype on the simultaneous occurrence of OSA and cardiovascular diseases remains unexplored. This study aimed to determine whether the HTGW phenotype elevates the incidence of major adverse cardiovascular events (MACE) in patients with OSA, such as hospitalization for unstable angina and heart failure, myocardial infarction, and cardiovascular death, in patients with OSA.

Methods: A total of 1,290 patients with OSA were recruited from six hospitals for follow-up. According to the Chinese population criteria recommended by the International Diabetes Federation, the patients were divided into four groups: normal triglyceride waist circumference (NTNW) phenotype, pure high triglyceride (HTNW) phenotype, pure high waist circumference (NTGW) phenotype, and HTGW phenotype. The prognosis for MACE was evaluated using Cox proportional hazards analysis. The prognosis of MACE was evaluated using Cox proportional hazards analysis.

Results: 207 (17.9%) developed an HTGW phenotype. After a median of 42 months of follow-up, 119 (10.3%) experienced MACE. Cox proportional hazards analysis revealed that patients exhibiting the HTGW phenotype had a 1.963-fold higher risk of developing MACE than patients with the NTNW phenotype (P = 0.012). These results remained significant after adjusting for confounders, and a 2.186-fold increased risk of MACE was found in patients with NTGW phenotype (P = 0.012). Subgroup analyses revealed an increased risk of MACE in OSA patients with HTGW phenotype and NTGW phenotype that were older than or equal to 70 years, male, and had moderate-to-severe OSA (all P-values < 0.05).

Conclusion: The HTGW and NTGW phenotypes significantly increase MACE risk among elderly patients with OSA.

期刊介绍： The journal Sleep and Breathing aims to reflect the state of the art in the international science and practice of sleep medicine. The journal is based on the recognition that management of sleep disorders requires a multi-disciplinary approach and diverse perspectives. The initial focus of Sleep and Breathing is on timely and original studies that collect, intervene, or otherwise inform all clinicians and scientists in medicine, dentistry and oral surgery, otolaryngology, and epidemiology on the management of the upper airway during sleep. Furthermore, Sleep and Breathing endeavors to bring readers cutting edge information about all evolving aspects of common sleep disorders or disruptions, such as insomnia and shift work. The journal includes not only patient studies, but also studies that emphasize the principles of physiology and pathophysiology or illustrate potentially novel approaches to diagnosis and treatment. In addition, the journal features articles that describe patient-oriented and cost-benefit health outcomes research. Thus, with peer review by an international Editorial Board and prompt English-language publication, Sleep and Breathing provides rapid dissemination of clinical and clinically related scientific information. But it also does more: it is dedicated to making the most important developments in sleep disordered breathing easily accessible to clinicians who are treating sleep apnea by presenting well-chosen, well-written, and highly organized information that is useful for patient care.
