REM-associated sleep disordered breathing: prevalence and clinical significance in the hypnolaus cohort

Introduction: Nocturnal respiratory events are usually more frequent and of longer duration in rapid eyes movement sleep (REM) compared with non-REM sleep (NREM), probably due to greater pharyngeal muscle relaxation and a reduction in the hypoxic and hypercapnic ventilatory response throughout . However, the prevalence and clinical impact of REM-related sleep-disordered breathing (REM-SDB) are still debated. The aim of this study was to determined the prevalence of REM-related sleep-disordered breathing (REM-SDB) in the general population and to investigate the associations between REM-SDB and hypertension, metabolic syndrome, diabetes and depression.
