 PAGE \* MERGEFORMAT 12 Obstructive sleep apnea syndrome with hypertension characteristics and clinical significance of blood pressure [Keywords:] Obstructive sleep apnea syndrome characterized clinical significance of blood pressure, high blood pressure Obstructive sleep apnea hypopnea syndrome (Obstructive sleep apnea hypopnea syndrome, OSAHS) to sleep in the upper airway (Upper airway, UA repeatedly collapse, characterized by obstruction [1]. Clinically manifested as snoring, irregular breathing at night, apnea, repeated arousal, early morning headaches, daytime sleepiness and memory loss and so on. Currently on obstructive sleep apnea syndrome (OSAS and the correlation between high blood pressure studies have fully confirmed OSAS is not dependent on age, obesity, etc. incentives for the independent existence and development of hypertension induced by an important risk factor. circadian rhythm of blood pressure changes in blood pressure leading to the increase in cardiovascular events important reason, circadian rhythm disappeared and the high frequency of peak morning and target organ damage closely related to [2]. OSAS patients with hypertension and blood pressure circadian rhythm of the law is still not very clear. This article from the epidemiology, pathogenesis, blood pressure rhythm, blood pressure, peak morning and discussed several aspects of the clinical significance of combined high-OSAS blood pressure, blood pressure characteristics and the significance of target organ damage. 1 OSAS epidemiology of hypertension In 2003 the United States to prevent, detect, evaluation, and treatment of hypertension seventh report of the National Committee (The JNC7 Report) published OSAS is secondary hypertension risk factors the first one [3]. Epidemiologic data show that 35% ~ 90% of OSAS patients with hypertension disease, and 40% to 60% of hypertensive patients with different degrees of OSAS, and the apnea and hypopnea index (AHI) and high blood pr
