18-Year sleep study reveals lasting health impacts

NCT ID NCT05077748

Summary

This study followed 202 people for 18 years to see what happens to children with sleep apnea when they become adults. Researchers checked their sleep, blood pressure, heart health, and thinking skills to learn if childhood sleep problems lead to long-term heart or brain issues. The goal is to understand the natural history of sleep apnea, not to test a treatment.
