Abstract
ED and overall sexual dysfunction were highly prevalent in patients with suspected OSA. Irrespective of known risk factors, mean nocturnal SaO2 was an additional, independent correlate of these dysfunctions, suggesting that OSA‐related intermittent nocturnal hypoxemia specifically contributes to their development.
