Arms and Interventions

Arm Intervention/Treatment
Active Comparator: Standard of Care Group

Participants in this group receive the standard of care treatment for sleep apnea for up to six months.

Other: Standard of Care
Participants in this group will receive standard of care treatment for sleep apnea.

Experimental: Personalized OSA Treatment Group

Participants in this group receive personalized OSA treatment for sleep apnea for up to six months.

Other: Standard of Care
Participants in this group will receive standard of care treatment for sleep apnea.

Behavioral: Personalized OSA Treatment
Participants in this group will receive standard of care treatment plus the personalized treatment that consists of videos approximately three minutes long, virtual, accessed through web based application, that the participant watches weekly. The purpose of the video is tailored educational content for sleep apnea.

Outcome Measures

Primary Outcome Measures

  1. Proportion of participants adherence to OSA treatment [Up to 6 months]

    The proportion of participants who answer yes (meaning a participant acknowledges an average of more than 4 hours of continuous positive airway pressure use) or no (meaning a participant acknowledges an average of less than 4 hours of continuous positive airway pressure use).

Secondary Outcome Measures

  1. Change in Molecular Biomarkers [Baseline and 6 months]

    The molecular biomarker are C₂N, Homocysteine, Neurofilament light, Glial fibrillary acidic protein, Tau, and Amyloid-Beta peptides and the inflammatory markers are Interleukin-6,Interleukin -10, and Tumor Necrosis Factor-alpha. All will be measured in picograms per milliliter.

  2. Change in Vascular Markers [Baseline and 6 months]

    Red Blood Cell Count, White Blood Cell Count, and Platelet Count will be measured. All will be measured in Cells/L.

  3. Change in Cardiometabolic Biomarkers measured in mg/dl [Baseline and 6 months]

    Total Cholesterol, HDL, LDL, Triglycerides, Bilirubin, Blood Urea Nitrogen (BUN), Calcium, Creatinine, and Glucose. Measured in milligrams/deciliter (mg/dl) assessed with blood analyses.

  4. Change in Cardiometabolic Biomarkers as measured in grams per deciliter [Baseline and 6 months]

    Hemoglobin, Albumin, and Total Protein. Measured in grams per deciliter assessed with blood analyses.

  5. Change in Cardiometabolic Biomarkers measured in mmol/mol [Baseline and 6 months]

    Glucose/HbA1C, Chloride, Potassium, Sodium, Homocysteine. Measured in mmol/mol assessed with blood analyses

  6. Change in Cardiometabolic Biomarkers- platelet count [Baseline and 6 months]

    Platelet Count. Measured per microliter of Blood.

  7. Change in Cardiometabolic Biomarkers as measured per microliter of Blood. [Baseline and 6 months]

    Blood Pressure. Measured per microliter of Blood.

  8. Change in Cardiometabolic Biomarkers as measured by Milli-international units per litre. [Baseline and 6 months]

    Thyroid-stimulating hormone. Measured Milli-international units per litre.

  9. Change in Cardiometabolic Biomarkers as measured milligrams per liter [Baseline and 6 months]

    C-reactive protein Highly Sensitive. Measure milligrams per liter.

  10. Change in Cardiometabolic Biomarkers Measured in microgram [Baseline and 6 months]

    Folate. Measured microgram.

  11. Change in Cardiometabolic Biomarkers Measured picograms per milliliter [Baseline and 6 months]

    Vitamin B12. Measured picograms per milliliter.

  12. Change in NIH Toolbox -Oral Reading Recognition Test [Baseline, 6 months]

    An assessment of reading decoding skills and crystalized abilities. Participants are asked to read aloud letters and words, pronouncing the words as accurately as possible.

  13. Change in NIH Toolbox Picture Vocabulary Test [Baseline, 6 months]

    An assessment of receptive vocabulary administered in a computer-adaptive test (CAT) format. Participants must choose which of four pictures best represents a word presented via audio.

  14. Change in NIH Toolbox- Flanker Inhibitory Control and Attention [Baseline, 6 months]

    An assessment of inhibitory control and attention. The participant is asked to focus on a particular stimulus while inhibiting attention to the stimuli flanking it. This outcome will be reported as a composite score.

  15. Change in Executive Function measured by Dimensional Change Card Sort Test [Baseline, 6 months]

    Executive function, An assessment of cognitive flexibility and attention. The participant is asked to match a series of picture pairs to a target picture.

  16. Change in Episodic memory measured by Picture Sequence Memory Test [Baseline, 6 months]

    Episodic memory, An assessment of episodic memory. Participants are shown a number of activities, and then asked to reproduce the sequence of pictures as it was presented.

  17. Change in NIH Toolbox- Auditory Verbal Learning Test [Baseline, 6 months]

    Participants are given three trials to recall as many words as possible from a list of fifteen unrelated words. After a 5-25 minute delay, participants are asked to freely recall as many of the 15 words as possible..

  18. Change in Working Memory measured by List Sorting Task [Baseline, 6 months]

    Working memory, An assessment of working memory. The participant is asked to recall and sequence different stimuli that are presented visually and via audio.

  19. Change in Processing Speed measured by Patten Comparison Processing Speed Test [Baseline, 6 months]

    Processing speed, An assessment of processing speed. Participants are asked to quickly determine whether two stimuli are the same or not the same.

  20. Change in Sustained attention measured by Psychomotor Vigilance Test [Baseline, 6 months]

    Sustained attention, The Psychomotor Vigilance Test (PVT) objectively assesses the mean response time to psychomotor vigilance tests during the Peak Alertness Window.

  21. Change in Neuropsychological Testing (Wechsler Test of Adult Reading [Baseline, 6 months]

    The test involves 50 incorrectly spelled words. The score is computed based on the number of correctly pronounced words. The scale ranges from 0-50, the higher the score the higher the reading ability.

  22. Change in Working Memory measured by Number Span Subset [Baseline, 6 months]

    In this test, the participant is asked to recall a series of numbers in reverse order. The correctly recalled series are scored as 1, and the test contains 14 sequences of numbers. The range of working memory score is from 0 to 14, with higher values representing better outcome.

    Patient-Reported Outcomes Measurement Information System Short Form v1.0 Sleep Disturbance 4a (1. Not at all 2. A little bit 3. Somewhat 4. Quite a bit 5. Very much)

  26. Changes in number of minutes as measured by FitBit Sleep Stages [Baseline, 2 months, 6 months]

    Sleep quality will be measured by the number of minutes by FitBit Sleep Stages.

  27. Changes in Sleep quality measured by Sleep Score [Baseline, 2 months, 6 months]

    FitBit Sleep score Min: 1 Max: 100 Excellent: 90-100 Good: 80-89 Fair: 60-79 Poor: Less than 60
