| Research Abstract |
We investigated height, weight, snoring and ESS (Epworth sleepiness scale) for 698 diabetes subjects (416 men /282 women) and performed screening of SDB by using the single-channel airflow monitor that had relatively high agreement with polysomnography results. The prevalence of SDB was 85.8% by screening of this study. The present study suggested that the prevalence of SDB correlated with Body Mass Index (BMI). But the prevalence of moderate SDB among BMI < 23 group was 34.5%. As problems of the screening, we showed that 35.4% of diabetics who had 23 or less BMI had moderate sleep-disordered breathing and ESS score is not ideal enough for diabetic subjects with severe SDB to use as screening tool
