THE RELATIONSHIP BETWEEN TYPE 2 DIABETES AND SLEEP APNEA

Treating these closely-related conditions requires new clinical practices and research to reduce personal and public health costs

San Francisco, USA and Brussels, Belgium, June 7, 2008 – The International Diabetes Federation (IDF) Task Force on Epidemiology and Prevention warned today that recent research demonstrates that type 2 diabetes and obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) are closely related, and that both disorders have significant implications on public health and on individuals.

These were the conclusions of a meeting of diabetes and sleep experts who examined the impacts of untreated OSA, the most common form of sleep disordered breathing. The resulting IDF statement was released in a presentation at the American Diabetes Association (ADA) 68th Annual Scientific Sessions and in an article published in Diabetes Research and Clinical Practice1.
