Thinking and memory in sleep apnea
Part of Brain & nervous system, Lungs & breathing clinical trials.
This study looks at how thinking and memory are affected in people with newly diagnosed obstructive sleep apnea (a condition where breathing stops briefly during sleep). It aims to understand the impact of sleep apnea on brain function.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You are between 18 and 65 years old.
- You have been newly diagnosed with obstructive sleep apnea based on a sleep study.
- You do not have any other long-term health problems besides being overweight.
- You do not have a serious mental health condition that affects thinking.
- You have not been treated for sleep apnea before (like with a CPAP machine or surgery).

This study looks at how obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) affects thinking, memory, and quality of life. It involves people with OSA and a comparison group without it, to better understand the impact of the condition.
This study looks at brain fog (difficulty thinking or concentrating) in people with severe sleep apnea, both before and after starting CPAP therapy. It aims to understand how sleep apnea treatment affects brain function.
This study looks at how sleep apnea affects thinking and memory in older adults. If you join, you'll wear comfortable, non-invasive sensors overnight to monitor your sleep and breathing patterns.
This trial looks at how sleep apnea affects memory and brain health in people who have mild memory problems or are worried about their memory. You will have a sleep study and brain scans to see if treating sleep apnea could help protect your thinking skills.
This study tests whether using a CPAP machine (which helps keep your airway open while you sleep) can improve memory and thinking in people who have both mild memory problems and sleep apnea. If you qualify, you will be asked to use the machine at home and have regular check-ins.
This study tests whether treating sleep apnea can help protect memory and brain health in older adults. It involves using a CPAP machine or other treatments for sleep apnea and may include memory tests and brain scans over 2 years.
