  1. Values are mean ± standard deviation
  2. AHI, apnea-hypopnea index; ESS, Epworth Sleepiness Scale; BMI, body mass index; HCO3−, bicarbonate; NREM, non-rapid eye movement sleep; pCO2, partial pressure of carbon dioxide pressure; pO2, partial pressure of oxygen; ppFEV1, percent predicted forced expiratory volume in 1 s; ppFVC, percent predicted forced vital capacity; ODI, oxygen desaturation index; OSA, obstructive sleep apnea; REM, rapid eye movement sleep; RV, residual volume; SpO2, oxygen saturation; TST, total sleep time; WASO, wake after sleep onset
  3. Bold values denote statistical significance at the p < 0.05 level
