Abstract

The chemoreflexes are an important mechanism for regulation of both breathing and autonomic cardiovascular function. Abnormalities in chemoreflex mechanisms may be implicated in increased cardiovascular stress in patients with obstructive sleep apnea (OSA). We tested the hypothesis that chemoreflex function is altered in patients with OSA.<br />Clinical Trial<br />Controlled Clinical Trial<br />Journal Article<br />Research Support, Non-U.S. Gov't<br />Research Support, U.S. Gov't, P.H.S.<br />info:eu-repo/semantics/published
