Abstract
Obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) is a chronic sleep-breathing disorder and a frequent comorbidity in patients with type-2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM). Cardinal features of OSA including arousals from sleep and fragmented sleep pattern have been implicated to cause oxygen desaturations and enhance the nocturnal release of cortisol that sustain during daytime thus providing the stimulus for the development of T2DM.
