Introduction: Prevalence of obstructive sleep apnoea (OSA) is higher in postmenopausal females. The aim of this study was to compare OSA severity in postmenopausal females (group E-) and females with preserved estrogen activity (premenopausal or on hormonal replacement therapy - group E+). Material and methods: We studied 147 OSA females in mean age 58.1 ± 9.4 years. Subjects presented obesity (BMI = 34 ± ± 7.9 kg/m2) and moderate or severe disease (AHI = 35.9 ± 20.9), SaO2 mean - 89.4 ± 5.8%. Group (E-) consisted of 116 pts (75.5%) and group (E+) of 36 pts (24.5%). Results: Group (E+) presented more severe OSA (AHI/RDI = 42 ± 26.6) and obesity (BMI = 37.6 ± 10.1 kg/m2) when compared to group E- (AHI/RDI =...
