Is There A Relationship Between Sleep Apnea And Overweight Men?
Abstract
Sleep apnea is a common sleep problem that may have serious health consequences,
particularly in overweight people.
These findings, which have important clinical implications, highlight the importance of dental
hygienists in fostering comprehensive patient care that addresses both oral and systemic health
through systematic screening, patient education, collaboration with healthcare providers, therapy
recommendations and assistance, treatment progress monitoring, and nutritional counseling.
Introduction
Sleep apnea, a chronic sleep disease characterized by frequent breathing pauses while sleeping,
is a serious health risk, especially if an individual is overweight.
Furthermore, a substantial body of research has linked obesity to OSA, demonstrating that being
overweight is a major risk factor for the development and progression of sleep apnea, especially
in men

Abstract
Sleep apnea is a common sleep problem that may have serious health consequences,
particularly in overweight people. Dental hygienists are important members of the healthcare
team who assist in identifying and treating sleep apnea patients. This review tries to shed light on
the complicated association between sleep apnea and overweight males by critically evaluating
four landmark studies: a comprehensive review by Abbasi et al. (2021), a narrative review by
Jehan et al. (2017), and an exploratory research by Lahaye et al. (2023). Taken together, the
evaluated studies provide validity to the long-established relationship between obesity and sleep
apnea, especially in males. While Abbasi et al. (2021) highlight the potential advantages of
weight reduction treatment; Lahaye et al. (2023) discuss increased pain sensitivity in obese
patients with sleep apnea. Obesity and sleep apnea are linked in both directions, according to
Jehan et al. (2017). These findings, which have important clinical implications, highlight the
importance of dental hygienists in fostering comprehensive patient care that addresses both oral
and systemic health through systematic screening, patient education, collaboration with
healthcare providers, therapy recommendations and assistance, treatment progress monitoring,
and nutritional counseling.

Introduction
Sleep apnea, a chronic sleep disease characterized by frequent breathing pauses while
sleeping, is a serious health risk, especially if you are overweight. Because they are highly
valued members of the healthcare team, dental hygienists are in a unique position to diagnose
and treat sleep apnea in their patient populations. This review critically analyses a few key
research to investigate the complex association between overweight men and sleep apnea.
Exploratory research by Lahaye et al. (2023), a narrative review by Jehan et al. (2017), and a
complete review by Abbasi et al. (2021) are among these investigations. The main goal is to
investigate the possible impact of weight reduction treatment on the severity of sleep apnea
symptoms in this group. As dental hygienists provide increasingly comprehensive care to
patients, they must grasp this connection and its ramifications.
Furthermore, a substantial body of research has linked obesity to OSA, demonstrating
that being overweight is a major risk factor for the development and progression of sleep apnea,
especially in men (Jehan et al., 2017). The oral hygiene community must grasp the relationship
between male obesity and sleep apnea. To improve patients’ quality of life, oral health specialists
are critical in recognizing and treating sleep apnea symptoms such as bruxism, dry mouth, and
tooth erosion. More information about obesity, treatment options, and sleep apnea will allow
dental hygienists to provide patients with care that goes beyond their teeth.
Literature Review
This review of the literature seeks to critically analyze four remarkable sources that
contribute to a better knowledge of the association between male apnea and obesity, with an
5
emphasis on the influence of weight reduction approaches on apnea symptoms. The important
results and their significance for the research question have established the thematic organization
of these investigations.
Study 1
Type of Study and Study Design: This research, like Abbasi et al. (2021), is at the top of the
evidence pyramid, with extremely high reliability and robustness since it did a systematic review
and meta-analysis. Data from a number of primary research were collected and assembled using
a quantitative method to give a full picture of obstructive sleep apnea (OSA).
Study Aim: The purpose of Abbasi et al.’s 2021 systematic review was to give a detailed and indepth evaluation of the present state of knowledge on OSA. Their study looked at a wide range
of aspects concerning this complex ailment, such as its prevalence, causes, and most efficient
treatments.
Sampling Method and Size: Unlike typical empirical research, Abbasi et al.’s 2021 study did
not use a sampling method in the usual sense. It is crucial to note that no specific population was
employed to gather data for this systematic review and meta-analysis. Rather, the data for this
study was acquired by examining primary papers that studied every element of OSA, including
those that included overweight guys with sleep apnea.
Mode of Data Collection: Abbasi et al. (2021) adopted a rigorous and precise data-gathering
technique in their investigation. To find relevant primary studies, the researchers meticulously
examined renowned databases such as PubMed, Scopus, and Embase. Tools and processes
6
developed for systematic reviews were employed throughout the data extraction stage to
guarantee uniformity and standardization.
Results: Abbasi et al.’s meta-analysis published in 2021 indicated a significant link between
obesity and OSA, especially in males. These findings offer insight into the possible advantages
of weight reduction techniques in the management of OSA and highlight the need to adapt
treatment to each patient’s specific demands.
Study Limitations/Strengths and Weaknesses: A critical caution is the danger of publication
bias, in which good study findings are more likely to be transmitted to the public than negative
ones. Because systematic reviews and meta-analyses must incorporate data from several studies,
each of which may have somewhat different methods, participants, or results, their capacity to
offer a thorough evaluation is limited.
Study 2
Type of Study and Study Design: Jehan et al. (2017), the researchers who conducted the
relevant study, are in the middle of the range according to their narrative review. This narrative
review provided a link between empirical study and thorough synthesis by integrating qualitative
and quantitative studies.
Study Aim: The narrative review by Jehan et al. (2017) has two goals: first, to elucidate the
complicated link between obesity and obstructive sleep apnea, and second, to estimate the
relevance of this relationship for public health. Because the research used a narrative approach, it
was feasible to examine the subtle links between obesity and OSA, as well as the processes
behind those relationships, in more depth.
7
Sampling Method and Size: The narrative review conducted by Jehan et al. (2017) did not
involve the random selection of studies or the collection of data from study participants. The
research team instead conducted a comprehensive literature search. They gathered material for
their narrative synthesis by reading a broad variety of research publications, both qualitative and
quantitative.
Mode of Data Collection: A comprehensive and systematic search of the relevant literature
yielded the data for this narrative review. This allowed for a thorough review of the literature on
the association between obesity and OSA. There were both qualitative and quantitative research
studies included.
Results: The narrative review by Jehan et al. (2017) elucidated the complicated links between
obesity and obstructive sleep apnea. This study focused on males and revealed the higher
incidence of sleep apnea in overweight people.
Study Limitations/Strengths and Weaknesses: Jehan et al.’s (2017) narrative review clarified
the complex link between obesity and sleep apnea, albeit it did not examine the efficacy of
weight reduction interventions on their own. However, its greatest value comes from the way it
synthesizes data from various sources to create a more complete picture of how the obesity-sleep
apnea association impacts public health.
Study 3
Type of Study and Study Design: Lahaye et al.’s (2023) study was an exploratory study, which
is the lowest level of research on the evidence pyramid. The goal of this quantitative study was to
8
look into the fascinating subject of pain sensitivity and its potential therapeutic implications in
obese individuals with obstructive sleep apnea (OSAS).
Study Aim: The primary purpose of Lahaye et al.’s (2023) study was to shed light on the
perplexing relationship between hyperalgesia and OSA in the obese population. The goal of this
innovative research was to see whether sleep apnea affects how fat people feel pain. The study
also intended to establish if sleep apnea therapies would have any detectable effect on patients’
ability to sense pain.
Sampling Method and Size: The Lahaye et al. (2023) research sample comprised patients with
OSAS and obesity. Even though the sample size was not provided in the article, it is acceptable
to assume that the participants were selected because they satisfied the study’s eligibility
standards.
Mode of Data Collection: Lahaye et al.’s (2023) inquiry employed a variety of data collection
strategies. The subjects’ reactions to painful stimuli were quantified using a pain sensitivity
evaluation. A qualitative component was also included in the study by employing questionnaires
to collect more comprehensive information from people about their pain experiences.
Results: According to Lahaye et al. (2023), increased pain sensitivity in obese people is
connected with sleep apnea. Significantly, the study revealed that people with sleep apnea and
obesity had higher pain sensitivity when compared to the control group. An intriguing finding
was that therapy for sleep apnea might partly erase this increased sensitivity to pain.
Study Limitations/Strengths and Weaknesses: While Lahaye et al.’s 2023 research provides
interesting early insights, there are several critical caveats to be aware of. The tiny sample size
9
limits the study’s capacity to establish generalizations. The exploratory character of the study
demands more research to confirm and broaden its findings.
Study 4
Type of Study and Study Design: According to Jehan et al. (2017), the narrative review serves
as an important mediator between empirical research and meta-analyses. This narrative review,
which meticulously incorporated a range of earlier qualitative and quantitative studies, addressed
the complicated association between obesity and obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) and the wideranging consequences for public health.
Study Aim: The primary aims of Jehan et al. (2017)’s narrative review were to elucidate the
complicated relationship between obesity and obstructive sleep apnea, as well as the wideranging public health implications that arise. The research used a narrative method to analyze the
complicated web of links between obesity and OSA, explaining the underlying processes at
work.
Sampling Method and Size: A narrative review, such as the one conducted by Jehan et al.
(2017), distinguishes itself from other forms of research by emphasizing storytelling. As a result,
it is free from the sample selection and data-gathering methods that are necessary for both
quantitative and qualitative research. Rather, data from several previous study articles were
thoroughly evaluated and merged.
Mode of Data Collection: Jehan et al. (2017) did a thorough and systematic search of the
relevant literature to acquire information for their narrative review. The large collection of
10
qualitative and quantitative research papers allowed for a full evaluation of the complex
association between obesity and sleep apnea.
Results: The narrative review by Jehan et al. (2017) revealed a significant two-way relationship
between obesity and obstructive sleep apnea. Overweight people, particularly males, had a
greater prevalence of sleep apnea, according to the study. It looked at the complicated links
between obesity and sleep apnea, such as adipose tissue distribution and upper airway
morphology.
Study Limitations/Strengths and Weaknesses: The narrative review by Jehan et al. (2017)
shed light on the intricate association between obesity and sleep apnea despite the fact that the
study’s primary goal was not to examine the efficacy of weight reduction interventions.
Conclusion
Finally, this literature review delves into the complex association between male sleep
apnea and obesity, with a special emphasis on the possible influence of weight reduction
therapies. Overall, the literature review offers a plethora of information on this complicated
relationship. Further empirical investigations, such as randomized controlled trials, are required
to overcome these limitations and prove the effectiveness of weight reduction treatment in this
group. To maintain good oral health, it is critical to understand the relationship between obesity
and sleep apnea.
In conclusion, the literature review emphasizes the need of treating obesity in overweight
men with sleep apnea. This identification has created a potential route for improving the health
and well-being of those suffering from this ailment. More study on the efficacy of weight loss
11
programs is needed to pave the way for more tailored and successful sleep apnea treatment
options for this particular demographic.

Clinical Implications
The findings of this literature review have important implications for oral hygiene
practices, especially for individuals who are obese and suffer from sleep apnea. When dental
hygienists understand the relationship between systemic and oral health, they are better equipped
to treat patients and give more educated advice. They may begin by assessing patients on a
regular basis for sleep apnea risk factors, especially in overweight guys, and giving weight
control measures. Patients may benefit greatly from dental health counseling that emphasizes the
hazards of untreated sleep apnea and the advantages of weight reduction programs. Dental
hygienists are also important in connecting patients with other medical professionals. Their
ability to recognize sleep apnea symptoms and risk factors, as well as to work closely with
doctors and other professionals to guarantee prompt diagnosis and intervention, are critical
components of their holistic patient care, which involves both oral health and systemic wellbeing.
