Correlation of self-reported EDS (ESS ≥ 10) with severe sleep apnea, nocturnal hypoxemia, and patterns of sleep apnea among the CKD patients, the HD patients, and the Sleep-SCORE controls
CKD Stage 4 to 5 (n = 89) | HD (n = 75) | Sleep-SCORE Controls (n = 224) | |
---|---|---|---|
AHI ≥ 30 | ϕ = 0.13, P = 0.23 | ϕ = 0.32, P = 0.009b | ϕ = 0.09, P = 0.19 |
Nocturnal hypoxemia ≥ 3% TST | ϕ = 0.16, P = 0.18 | ϕ = 0.08, P = 0.54 | ϕ = 0.13, P = 0.07 |
Obstructive apnea index | rpb = 0.12, P = 0.29 | rpb = 0.27, P = 0.02a | rpb = 0.14, P = 0.03a |
Central apnea index | rpb = 0.12, P = 0.27 | rpb = 0.18, P = 0.13 | rpb = 0.07, P = 0.28 |
Mixed apnea index | rpb = 0.06, P = 0.56 | rpb = 0.25, P = 0.03a | rpb = 0.09, P = 0.18 |
Results are expressed as correlation coefficient (ϕ) or r point biserial (rpb) and two-tailed statistical significance (P). Nocturnal hypoxemia ≥ 3% TST, percentage ≥3% of total sleep time with oxyhemoglobin saturation <90%.
Significance at the a0.05 and b0.01 level.
