Long-latency reflex prolongation in obstructive sleep apnea suggests cortical sensorimotor slowing: a controlled neurophysiology study

2026-02-09

Abstract excerpt

<title>Abstract</title> <p>Obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) is associated with neurocognitive impairment and diffuse brain dysfunction beyond sleep–wake regulation. Long-latency reflexes (LLRs) are transcortical responses that provide a practical probe of cortical sensorimotor integration. We aimed to determine whether OSA selectively alters upper-limb LLR components. Thirty-nine patients with polysomnography-confir...
