First of all&#44; the majority of OSA patients examined had cardiovascular diseases &#40;CVD&#41;&#46; This proportion was connected with a close association between OSA and cardiovascular morbidity&#46;<a href="&#35;bib56" class="elsevierStyleCrossRefs"><span class="elsevierStyleSup">27</span></a><span class="elsevierStyleSup">&#44;

which could influence therapeutic approaches in the future&#46; In addition&#44; this group of OSA patients is not well enough described&#44; because the majority of studies concentrate on OSA patients with CVD&#44; as we did&#46; Many mechanisms are connected with higher CVD incidence in OSA&#44; including increased sympathetic activity&#44; oxidative stress&#44; systemic inflammation&#44; abnormal coagulation&#44;
