Summary

Story summary

Mount Sinai researchers developed an AI-powered X-ray analysis model to personalize sleep apnea treatment and estimate CPAP’s cardiovascular impact.
The model analyzes Sleep Apnea Cardiovascular Endpoints (SAVE) trial data to identify CPAP beneficiaries and those who could be harmed.
The study calls for careful validation of AI tools for clinical use and notes obstructive sleep apnea affects about 25 million people in the United States with higher cardiovascular risk.
