They performed pulmonary function test, the Epworth sleepiness scale-ESS, cardiac ultrasound, maximal exercise test (CPET),nocturnal polysomnography, evaluation of a. functional status outcomes and quality of life associated with sleepiness by the Functional Outcome of Sleep Questionnaire (FOSQ), b.of sleep difficulty and physical and mental functioning by the Athens Insomnia Scale (AIS) c. severity of depression by the Beck Depression Inventory (BDI).Results Twenty eight patients (78.6 % male), of 68.4 (± 7.9) years, BMI of 28.6 (± 4.3), ESS of 6.6 (± 3.82), with IPF and AHI>5 were examined. AHI was 16.3 [IQR 7.5-21.3]. FOSQ, AIS and BDI were 0.79 (± 0.2), 0.22 (± 0.2) and 9.13 (± 5.7). MinSaO2 during sleep and maxdiffSaO2 awake-sleep was 81.8±7.3 and 10.7±5.7. FVC%, TLC% and DLCO% values were at 77±17.9, 63.5±12.8 and 43.5±15.6. VO2 peak/kg and SaO2 peak at CPET were 17.0 ml/min/kg±4.1 and 88.4±6.0. RVSP was 35.3±12.4 mmHg. Median survival was 520 days. Significant associations were found between MinSaO2 during sleep, maxdiffSaO2 awake-sleep and RVSP with FOSQ, AIS and BDI. Conclusion IPF-OSA patients present impaired quality of life and sleep and mild to moderate depression significantly related with sleep oxygen desaturation and pulmonary hypertension.
