Multifactorial processes involving a wide range of mechanisms of obstructive sleep apnea causing increased risk of future coronary events and poor prognosis of acute coronary syndrome. OSA = obstructive sleep apnea, ACS = acute coronary syndrome, HbA1c=glycated haemoglobin, HIF-1 = hypoxia-inducible factor-1, NF-κB = nuclear factor kappa B, MAPK = mitogen-activated protein kinase, PAI-1 = plasminogen activator inhibitor-1.
