It causes repeated interruptions in breathing during sleep, which can worsen metabolic function.
Hypertension
High blood pressure overloads the heart and arteries, increasing the risk of serious complications.
Hyperlipidemia - dyslipidemia
Imbalances in blood fats, such as high cholesterol or elevated triglycerides, can damage the cardiovascular system.

Fat accumulation in the liver is closely related to obesity and other metabolic conditions.
