Researchers concluded that corticosteroids increase airway collapsibility and lead to sleep apnea symptoms, and their conclusion has been supported by further studies. That leads to higher ...

Obstructive sleep apnea occurs when the upper airway patency is restricted or collapses during inspiration. Such collapse is a dynamic process that involves interactions between sleep state ...
