Cardiovascular Consequences of Sleep Apnea
Richard J. Castriotta, MD, FCCP

The relationship between obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) and systemic hypertension is thought to be causal, but conclusive proof remains elusive because of the number of confounding elements, most notably obesity.
Systemic Manifestations of Sleep Apnea: More Than Just Sleepiness; Residual Hypersomnolence in Treated Obstructive Sleep Apnea

Adherence to positive airway pressure therapy in adults and children.
Kristin Archbold, RN PhD

The purpose of this review is to improve our understanding of the causes and consequences of nonadherence to PAP therapy and highlight interventions that promote adherence.
