Brief Summary
The investigators hypothesize that chemoreflex response of muscle sympathetic nerve activity (MSNA) during hypoxia and hypercapnia will be increased in coronary artery disease (CAD) patients and that the presence of obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) will potentiate these responses. And, that the exercise training would decrease the chemoreflex response of MSNA in these patients.
