Abstract

A systematic review of English and French articles using Pubmed/Medline and Embase included studies assessing objectively-measured physical activity levels of OSA patients and exploring the effects of exercise training on OSA severity, body mass index, sleepiness and cardiorespiratory fitness (VO2peak). Two independent reviewers analysed the studies, extracted the data and assessed the quality of evidence. For objectively-measured physical activity levels, 8 studies were included. The mean number of steps per day across studies was 5,388 (95% CI: 3,831 to 6,945; p<0.001), which was by far lower than the recommended threshold of 10,000 steps per day. For exercise training, 6 randomized trials were included. There was a significant decrease in apnea-hypopnea-index following exercise training (mean decrease of 8.9 events/h; 95% CI: -13.4 to -4.3; p<0.01), which was accompanied by a reduction in subjective sleepiness, an increase in VO2peak and no change in BMI. OSA patients present low levels of physical activity and exercise training is associated with improved outcomes. Future interventions (including exercise training) focusing on increasing physical activity levels may have important clinical impacts on both OSA severity and the burden of associated co-morbidities. Objective measurement of physical activity in routine OSA management and well-designed clinical trials are recommended.

Figure 8 Hypothetical relationship between exercise training/physical activity and obstructive sleep apnea (OSA). The rostral fluid shift contributes to the pathogenesis of OSA and its attenuation via physical activity (47) and exercise training has been shown to alleviate OSA. The strength and fatigability of the upper airway dilators have been shown to be altered in patients with OSA. Specific exercise training modalities may improve upper airway function in OSA patients and thus contribute to decrease OSA severity. An elevated body mass index (BMI) is a key risk factor for the development of OSA while sleep disturbances can influence body composition. Exercise training has been shown to favorably modify body composition (increase lean mass, decrease fat mass) and can reduce BMI, therefore potentially alleviating the severity OSA. OSA is often accompanied by cardiovascular and metabolic co-morbidities, which can impair exercise tolerance. Exercise training has been shown to be beneficial for the improvement of a number of these co-morbidities (hypertension, dyslipidemia, type 2 diabetes, etc.).CC BY · PubMed Central

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.
