Brief Summary

Obstructive sleep apnea syndrome (OSAS) was associated with upper and lower respiratory tract inflammation, Fractional exhaled nitric oxide (FeNO) proposed as a marker of airway inflammation, few studies were done on the impact of continuous positive airway pressure (CPAP) on FeNO. Aim of the work: to study the impact of continued positive airway pressure therapy on exhaled NO and using Hs-CRP as a marker of inflammation in obstructive sleep apnea syndrome. Patient and Methods: This study is a case-control study including participants were newly diagnosed as OSAS and control recruited from sleep outpatient clinic, full night PSG was done, fractional exhaled nitric oxide and Hs-CRP were measured next morning of PSG, CPAP for moderate to severe OSA patient was advised with measurement of FeNO and Hs-CRP after 3months of CPAP Keywords: FeNO; Hs-CRP; CPAP; OSA. This research did not receive any specific grant from funding agencies in the public, commercial, or not-for-profit sectors.

Eligibility Criteria

Age18 Years - 60 Years
Sexall
Healthy VolunteersYes
Age GroupsAdult (18-64)

You may qualify if:

  • fractional exhaled nitric oxide and Hs-CRP were measured next morning of PSG, CPAP for moderate to severe OSA patient was advised with measurement of FeNO and Hs-CRP after 3months of CPAP
  • were ≥ 18 years old,
  • non-smokers and
  • excluded from any inflammatory disorders (allergy, bronchial asthma, gastro-esophageal reflux disease, cardiovascular diseases, and cerebrovascular diseases) or use of any regular medication including (nasal/inhaled/oral corticosteroids, antihistaminic, cysteinyl leukotriene receptor inhibitors),
  • or had upper or lower respiratory tract infection 2 weeks prior to sampling.
