* Hypertension: Untreated OSA is a major cause of resistant hypertension and CPAP can help lower blood pressure.
* Coronary Artery Disease: Repeated oxygen drops from OSA increase inflammation, plaque instability, and risk of heart attacks.
* Stroke: Moderate-to-severe OSA significantly raises the risk of stroke and cerebrovascular disease.
* Atrial Fibrillation: OSA increases the risk of atrial fibrillation, dangerous arrhythmias, and sudden cardiac death.
* Heart Failure: OSA places chronic strain on the heart, worsening preload, afterload, and heart failure progression.
* Type 2 Diabetes: OSA independently contributes to insulin resistance and increases long-term diabetes risk.
* Dyslipidemia / Metabolic Syndrome: OSA is linked to unhealthy cholesterol levels, triglycerides, and fatty liver disease.
* Pulmonary Hypertension: Severe OSA can raise lung blood pressure and lead to right-sided heart failure (cor pulmonale).
* Cognitive Impairment: OSA affects memory, concentration, processing speed, and may accelerate cognitive decline.
* Depression: Depression symptoms are common in OSA and often worsen as sleep apnea severity increases.
