NCT00152711

Brief Summary

This study aims to evaluate the impact of nasal continuous positive airway pressure (nCPAP) treatment on liver enzymes in patients with sleep apnea syndrome and nonalcoholic steatohepatitis. Using a cross over design, the evolution of liver enzymes will be evaluated in 40 patients during a consecutive period of 6 weeks, with and without nCPAP treatment.
