Abstract
Obstructive sleep apnoea (OSA) is characterized by a marked sympathetic overdrive, as documented by the elevated sympathetic nerve firing rate detected in peripheral muscle nerves. No data are available, however, on the behaviour of sympathetic drive in vascular regional districts other than the muscle circulation.In 66 middle-aged normotensive individuals classified according to BMI, waist-to-hip ratio and apnoea-hypopnea index as lean...
