Abstract
Adipose tissue of awake OSAS subjects appears no more hypoxic than adipose tissue of BMI-matched controls despite daytime hypoxaemia. Increased adipose tissue blood flow may be explained by an increased inflammatory response. We observe features of adipose dysfunction in subjects with OSAS, which attribute to increased cardiometabolic risk associated with this condition.
