Brief Summary

Although obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) is associated with impaired glucose tolerance and diabetes, it remains unclear whether OSA treatment with continuous positive airway pressure (CPAP) has metabolic benefits. The objective of this study is to determine the effect of 8-hour nightly CPAP treatment on glucose metabolism in individuals with prediabetes and OSA.

Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (1)

  • Change From Baseline in Area Under the Curve (AUC) Glucose at Week 2

    The area under the glucose time curve, between 0 and 120 minutes of the OGTT, was calculated for each patient using the trapezoidal rule . Change = Week 2 - Baseline.

    Baseline and Week 2

Secondary Outcomes (3)

  • Change From Baseline in Insulin Sensitivity (SI) at Week 2

    Baseline and Week 2

  • Change From Baseline in 24-hr Systolic Blood Pressure (mmHg) at Week 2

    Baseline and Week 2

  • Change From Baseline in 24-hr Diastolic Blood Pressure (mmHg) at Week 2

    Baseline and Week 2

Study Arms (2)

Continuous positive airway pressure

ACTIVE COMPARATOR

2 weeks of continuous positive airway pressure (CPAP) treatment which includes wearing the CPAP mask for 8 hours each night

Device: CPAP mask

Placebo

PLACEBO COMPARATOR

2 weeks of oral administration of a placebo tablet 30min before bedtime

Drug: Placebo

Interventions

CPAP maskDEVICE

The subjects who are randomized to CPAP treatment will undergo an overnight CPAP titration in the laboratory, which will be performed manually by a registered technician according to American Academy of Sleep Medicine (AASM) guidelines .Subjects will be admitted in the early evening and will receive positive airway pressure education, hands on demonstration, careful mask fitting and acclimatization prior to titration. The goal during the titration will be to determine the optimal CPAP pressure setting that eliminates obstructive respiratory events, restore oxygen saturations and sleep continuity. \_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_
