NCT ID NCT06714435
First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026
Summary
This study looked at whether repeated low oxygen levels, like those seen in sleep apnea, can reduce the ability to keep breathing during effort. 28 healthy volunteers did a breathing test after 6 hours of normal air and after 6 hours of low oxygen. The goal is to understand if oxygen drops alone affect breathing endurance, which could help manage asthma attacks or respiratory infections.
