Prolonged intermittent hypoxia accelerates cardiovascular aging and mortality: insights from a murine model of OSA
{{output}}
Obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) accelerates cardiovascular aging through intermittent hypoxia (IH). We exposed mice to 22 months of IH, modeling lifelong OSA. Compared to controls, IH mice exhibited higher mortality, elevated blood pressure, impaired systolic an... ...
