Outline of Final Research Achievements

SESSA study was randomly recruited community dwelling men in Japan. From 2013 to 2015, 544 men aged 47 to 79 years was measured oxygen saturation level at sleep. We defined 3% ODI(Oxygen Desaturation Index) ≧ 15 as breathing-related sleep disorder. We excluded 18 men those with missing information. Thus, 526 men were included in this analysis. Among them, 133 men (25%) had breathing-related sleep disorder. These results indicated that 28.7% of Japanese middle and/or elder men (aged 50 to 79) will have breathing-related sleep disorder.
