Obstructive sleep apnea is associated with altered skeletal muscle composition using computed tomography–derived indices

Key Points

• Altered skeletal muscle composition is associated with obstructive sleep apnea, signaling potential health concerns.
• The analysis indicates significant changes in muscle indices, highlighting underlying physiological effects.
• Assessment using computed tomography-derived indices shows crucial differences in muscle composition.
• These findings may enable better understanding of muscular impacts linked to obstructive sleep apnea.
