Obstructive Sleep Apnea Syndrome (OSAS) is a sleep disorder with high prevalence in general population, but alarmingly low in clinicians' differential diagnosis. We reviewed the literature on PubMed and Scopus from June 1980-2021 in order to describe the altered systematic pathophysiologic mechanisms in OSAS patients as well as to propose an exercise program for these patients. Exercise prevents a dysregulation of both daytime and nighttime cardiovascular autonomic function, reduces body weight, halts the onset and progress of insulin resistance, while it ameliorates excessive daytime sleepiness, cognitive decline, and mood disturbances, contributing to an overall greater sleep quality and quality of life.
阻塞性睡眠呼吸暂停综合征（OSAS）是一种在普通人群中患病率很高，但在临床医生鉴别诊断中却低得惊人的睡眠障碍。我们回顾了1980年6月至2021年期间PubMed和Scopus上的文献，以描述OSAS患者体内改变的系统性病理生理机制，并为这些患者提出一个运动方案。运动可防止白天和夜间心血管自主神经功能失调，减轻体重，阻止胰岛素抵抗的发生和进展，同时改善白天过度嗜睡、认知能力下降和情绪障碍，有助于整体提高睡眠质量和生活质量。
