ABSTRACT
White matter lesions in patients with obstructive sleep apnea hypopnea syndrome (OSAHS) are common brain microstructural changes, the mechanism of which is still not clear, including decreased cerebral perfusion, oxidative stress, inflammatory damage, etc. At present, white matter lesions are mainly evaluated by magnetic resonance imaging. White matter lesions in patients with OSAHS are often manifested as cognitive dysfunction such as inattention, decreased executive ability and memory loss. Continuous positive airway pressure can relieve the white matter lesions and improve the cognitive function of some patients with OSAHS. Further study on the pathogenesis and early imaging characteristics of OSAHS white matter lesions is expected to provide targets and evidence for early intervention.
