Brain scans reveal hidden effects of sleep apnea

NCT ID NCT05147649

First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026

Summary

This study uses brain scans (fMRI) to see if people with severe sleep apnea have unusual brain activity while awake, and whether CPAP treatment changes that. Researchers will compare 70 participants—some with sleep apnea and some without—to understand how the brain compensates for breathing problems during sleep. The goal is to learn more about how sleep apnea may affect thinking and memory.
