Bidirectional relationships between weight change and sleep apnea in a behavioral weight loss intervention.
This study examined the relationship between weight change and obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) in the context of behavioral weight loss intervention. A total of 114 adults who were overweight or obese participated in a 12-month behavioral weight loss intervention program from April 2012 to February 2015. Over half (58%) had OSA at the baseline. Those with OSA were found to lose less weight and were less adherent to daily calorie and activity goals. The results suggest that OSA screening should be used before attempting weight loss and also may indicate additional behavioral counseling.
