Abstract:
Objective To explore the characteristics of oxygen uptake efficiency (OUES) in patients with obstructive sleep apnea hypopnea syndrome (OSAHS) and analyze the relationship between OUE and severity of disease.Methods Pulmonary function test,polysomnogram and cardiopulmonary exercise testing were performed in 35 patients with OSAHS and 25 age-matched healthy volunteers.Their successive breathing respiratory exchange parameters were collected and analyzed.And t and x2 tests were used for 2 sample comparison.Correlation analysis was performed by Pearson correlation test.Results Significant differences in peak VO2 and peak VO2 % pred existed between OSAHS and normal control groups [(18±4) vs.(28 ±6) L/min,P<0.01;(68±14) vs.(84±16) %,P<0.01].Compared with normal control group [(2.3 ±0.5) L · min-1 · lg-1 ; (36 ±4) ml/L; (36 ±4) ml/L],OUES,OUEP and OUE@AT of OSAHS group [(1.8 ± 0.4) L · min-1 · lg-1 ; (31 ± 5) ml/L; (30 ± 5) ml/L] were significantly lower (t =3.78-4.49,all P <0.01).And OUES,OUEP and OUE@AT in OSAHS patients were correlated (r =0.53-0.67,all P <0.01) positively with exercise tolerance (peak VO2% pred) while negatively with apnea hypopnea index (AHI) (r=-0.67--0.54,all P <0.01).Conclusion The oxygen uptake efficiency of patients with OSAHS is significantly reduced compared to that of normal subjects.And it is correlated negatively with severity of disease.
