Sleep apnea treatment may be key to stopping diabetes in prediabetes
NCT ID NCT04225507
First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026
Summary
This study looks at whether adding CPAP (a machine that helps you breathe at night) to a healthy lifestyle program can lower the risk of diabetes in people with prediabetes and sleep apnea. About 174 overweight or obese adults with both conditions will be followed for 6 months. The goal is to see if CPAP improves blood sugar and blood pressure better than lifestyle changes alone.
