Can Obstructive Sleep Apnoea Treatment Help Diabetics?
A number of recent studies have shown a relationship between obstructive sleep apnoea and management of diabetes. The risk of sleep apnoea increases with age, weight gain, genetics, and other lifestyle factors. Sleep apnoea when left untreated may worsen or lead to diabetes.
Research conducted at the McGill University in Canada established that when sleep apnoea is treated leads to improvements in glucose levels. The study was undertaken with patients with sleep apnoea and prediabetes. The conclusion was that treatment for sleep apnoea may lower the risk for prediabetic patients. This will lead to patients avoiding suffering from the full diabetic state.
