Brief Summary

Finally, the CPAP group (n=23) and non-CPAP group (n=24) were analyzed. Compared to the non-CPAP group, the CPAP group had a significantly decreased percentage atheroma volume (adjusted difference -2.81+/-1.10%, p=0.014) by analysis of covariance, and tended to have a lower incidence rate of MACCE, mainly driven by a decrease in target vessel revascularization (4% vs. 25%, p=0.097).

Primary Outcome Measures
NameTimeMethod
Percentage changes in plaque atheroma volume in the non-culprit lesion measured by IVUS from baseline to 12 months
Secondary Outcome Measures
NameTimeMethod
(1) Absolute changes in maxLCBI4mm and maxLCBI10mm in the non-culprit lesion segment by NIRS analysis from baseline to 12 months (2) Absolute change in total atheroma volume in the non-culprit lesion measured by IVUS from baseline to 12 months (3) Absolute change in serum high-sensitivity C-reactive protein level from baseline to 12 months (4) Major adverse cardiac and cerebrovascular events, defined as composite of cardiovascular death, non-fatal myocardial infarction, non-fatal stroke, hospitalization for unstable angina, target vessel revascularization including target lesion revascularization and non-target lesion target vessel revascularization and hospitalization for congestive heart failure, and all-cause death during the follow-up period.
