A randomised controlled trial of nasal continuous positive airway pressure on insulin sensitivity in obstructive sleep apnoea
Open accessAbstract
The effects of treatment of obstructive sleep apnoea (OSA) on glucose metabolism have been investigated previously with conflicting results. This study evaluated the impact of nasal continuous positive airway pressure (nCPAP) treatment of OSA on insulin sensitivity. Males with moderate/severe OSA and no significant comorbidity were randomised to a therapeutic or sham nCPAP treatment group for 1 week and then reassessed. Those who received therapeutic nCPAP were further evaluated at 12 weeks. Insulin sensitivity (K itt) was estimated by the short insulin tolerance test. Other evaluations included blood pressure, metabolic profile, urinary catecholamines and intra-abdominal fat. In total, 61 Chinese subjects were randomised. 31 subjects receiving therapeutic nCPAP showed an increase in K itt(6.6±2.9 to 7.6±3.2 %·min−1; p = 0.017), while the 30 patients on sham CPAP had no significant change, and the changes in K itt were different between the two groups (p = 0.022). At 12 weeks, improvement in K itt was seen in 20 subjects with BMI ≥25 kg·m−2(median (interquartile range) 28.3 (26.6–31.5); p = 0.044), but not in the nine subjects with BMI<25 kg·m−2, or the entire group. The findings indicate that therapeutic nCPAP treatment of OSA for 1 week improved insulin sensitivity in nondiabetic males, and the improvement appeared to be maintained after 12 weeks of treatment in those with moderate obesity.

In the citing paper
“Despite the lack of improvement in fasting glucose levels, there have been several trials in those without diabetes suggesting CPAP therapy for comorbid OSA may reduce insulin resistance.[170][171][172]”

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
