Abstract
s of 3rd International Congress of the Association of Sleep Medicine (WASM) / Sleep Medicine 10, Suppl. 2 (2009) S1–S83 S31 tocol taking into consideration age, gender, 2D-echocardiogram, and spirometry. ANOVA, p<0,05. Results: There were no differences in baseline characteristics between groups. Peak oxygen uptake (VO2) was lower in narcoleptic patients compared to OSA and controls group (18,65±6,72; 31,13±9,24; 32,97±7,46; respectively, p<0,01). Peak carbon dioxide production (NAR = 21,74±6,86; OSA = 31,06±7,50; CON = 35,59±8,97; p<0,01), anaerobic threshold (NAR = 13,74±2,85; OAS = 23,40±5,11; CON= 25,12±4,47; p<0,01), ventilatory equivalents for O2 (NAR = 38,56±10,61; OSA = 25,65±4,18; CON = 27,79±4,17; p<0,01) and CO2 (NAR = 33,39±6,87; OSA = 23,86±2,00; CON = 25,76±1,67; p<0,01) were lower in narcoleptic patients compared to all other groups. Conclusion: Narcolepsy was associated to lower exercise capacity when compared to OSA and controls subjects. 111 COMPARISON OF THE CHARACTERISTICS OF KOREAN PATIENTS WITH NARCOLEPSY OR OBSTRUCTIVE SLEEP APNEA SYNDROME S.C.
