Study Details

Study Description

Brief Summary

The investigators will examine the possible synergistic effects of obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) and type II diabetes mellitus (DM) on vascular functioning by performing a two-part investigation:

  • A cross-sectional study comparing subjects with OSA+DM, OSA only, DM only, and healthy controls.

  • A three-month randomized placebo-controlled trial of continuous positive airway pressure (CPAP) in subjects with OSA+DM.

Condition or Disease Intervention/Treatment Phase
  • Device: Continuous positive airway pressure
  • Device: Sham continuous positive airway pressure

Arms and Interventions

Arm Intervention/Treatment
Active Comparator: Active CPAP

Therapeutic continuous positive airway pressure (CPAP).

Device: Continuous positive airway pressure
CPAP at therapeutic pressure; ResMed S9 device in fixed pressure mode (Sydney, Australia).

Placebo Comparator: Sham CPAP

Sham (non-therapeutic) continuous positive airway pressure.

Device: Sham continuous positive airway pressure
CPAP at non-therapeutic pressure; ResMed S9 device using a ResMed sham mask (Sydney, Australia).

Outcome Measures

Primary Outcome Measures

  1. Absolute Change in Brachial Artery Flow-mediated Dilation (FMD). [3 months (compared to baseline)]

    Brachial artery flow-mediated dilation is measured as the percent change in brachial artery diameter post-occlusion relative to pre-occlusion. The change in brachial artery flow mediated dilation is the difference in this percent change at 3-months compared to baseline.
