Evaluation of arterial stiffness and quality of life in the treatment of moderate to severe obstructive sleep apnea with Continuous Positive Airway Pressure or Mandibular Advancement Appliance: a cross-sectional study
Our results show better QoL scores in patients with OSA treated by CPAP and mainly by MAA. Differently, arterial stiffness parameters did not differ between the groups treated with CPAP and MAA and the control group.
