Fatigue in obstructive sleep apnea: driven by depressive symptoms instead of apnea severity?
After obstructive sleep apnea severity was controlled, higher levels of depressive symptoms were dramatically and independently associated with greater levels of fatigue. Assessment and treatment of mood symptoms-not just treatment of the disordered breathing itself-might reduce the fatigue experienced by patients with obstructive sleep apnea.
These data suggest that the mHVI and rHVI at SACST may be useful in differentiating insulinoma from nesidioblastosis with high specificity in patients with hyperinsulinemic hypoglycemia and negative or inconclusive noninvasive imaging.
