Arterial Stiffness in Patients with Sarcoidosis and Obstructive Sleep Apnea

Arterial Stiffness in Patients with Sarcoidosis and Obstructive Sleep Apnea

Background: Obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) and sarcoidosis have both been implied to be risk factors for increased arterial stiffness. However, it is unclear whether an elevated apnea–hypopnea index (AHI) in sarcoidosis patients increases arterial stiffness and thus the cardiovascular risk. Methods:...
