Summary

Obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) results in vascular dysfunction, which increases the risk of cardiovascular disease. In contrast, exercise confers cardioprotection through improvements in vascular health. This proposal evaluates whether the beneficial effects of exercise on vascular function are attenuated in obese individuals suffering from untreated OSA.
