Brain blood flow may hold key to sleep apnea breathing stability
NCT ID NCT03255408
First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026
Summary
This study looks at how changes in brain blood flow affect breathing control during sleep in healthy adults. Researchers will expose participants to normal oxygen and low oxygen levels to see how the brain responds. The goal is to better understand sleep apnea and related conditions like high blood pressure and stroke. Results may help develop future treatments.
