| Outline of Final Research Achievements |
To elucidate effects of snoring on health consequences, we investigated the relationship between snoring sound intensity and blood pressure. Method: A home-based tracheal sound monitoring study was performed on 191 workers in Japan using an IC recorder. Snoring sound intensity (equivalent sound pressure level; Leq) and the respiratory disturbance index (RDI) were calculated from the tracheal sound data. RDI was used as a marker of obstructive sleep apnea severity. Systolic and diastolic blood pressure measurements in the evening and morning were performed before and after tracheal sound recording. Result: Multiple regression analysis showed that Leq was significantly related to systolic blood pressure in the morning after adjustment for RDI and other confounding factors in non-apneic, non-obese subjects. Conclusion: This study suggests a pathophysiological consequences of heavy snoring.
