About

Obstructive type sleep apnea syndrome is a clinical condition characterized by apnea, hypopnea and oxygen desaturation due to narrowing of the upper airway during sleep. Obesity is considered a major predisposing factor for OSAS. In addition, various recent studies have reported that various anthropometric measurements such as neck circumference, waist circumference, hip circumference, waist-hip ratio, neck-waist circumference ratio change (increase) in OSAS patients.

Full description

Fibromyalgia is a common health problem that is characterized by pain in various parts of the body and is very difficult to diagnose and treat. It affects 2-4% of the population and is more common in women. The presence of OSAS in fibromyalgia patients is more common than in the normal population. There are also common additional symptoms such as excessive daytime sleepiness and delayed sleep latency.

Although it has been reported that the presence of OSAS is more common in fibromyalgia patients, there is no study on the presence of anthropometric measurements, especially neck circumference, that are accepted in OSAS.

The aim of this study is to compare the anthropometric and ultrasonographic measurements of female OSAS patients with and without fibromyalgia.
