Résumé
The increasing prevalence of overweight or obese children and adolescents is a significant global health concern. Although the effect of obesity on cardiovascular function has been investigated, little is known on the impact of associated obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) in obese youth. The aim of the present study was to investigate the influence of OSA on cardiovascular functional parameters in obese youth. This is a prospective single-center observational cross-sectional study. Forty-four obese patients and 44 age- and gender-matched control subjects were included. All patients underwent polysomnography and cardiovascular assessment including functional echocardiography and carotid-femoral pulse wave velocity (PWV). Obese patients had higher left ventricular (LV) mass/height
