Abdominal Compression Increases Upper Airway Collapsibility During Sleep in Obese Male Obstructive Sleep Apnea Patients

STUDY OBJECTIVES: Abdominal obesity, particularly common in centrally obese males, may have a negative impact on upper airway (UA) function during sleep. For example, cranial displacement of the diaphragm with raised intra-abdominal pressure may reduce axial tension exerted on the UA by intrathoraci...
