Key result
Obstructive sleep apnea and its comorbid association with obesity were associated with biological ages exceeding chronological age by 41.3% and 49.6%, respectively.
Why the study?
The study assessed the role of pathological changes in cerebral hemodynamics in premature aging among individuals with obstructive sleep apnea syndrome and comorbid obesity.
Are indicators of cerebral hemodynamics associated with premature aging in patients with obstructive sleep apnea and comorbid obesity?
Population

May flag premature aging via hemodynamics in OSA with obesity; leaves open need for longitudinal validation before practice change.

Are indicators of cerebral hemodynamics associated with premature aging in patients with obstructive sleep apnea and comorbid obesity?
Patients with sleep apnea and obesity exhibit accelerated aging, with cerebral hemodynamic indicators serving as markers of premature aging.
Brodovskaya et al. (2020) conducted an observational in Obstructive sleep apnea syndrome and comorbid obesity. Obstructive sleep apnea and comorbid obesity was evaluated on Biological age compared to chronological (passport) age. Obstructive sleep apnea and its comorbid association with obesity were associated with biological ages exceeding chronological age by 41.3% and 49.6%, respectively.
