Purpose Obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) is common in hypertrophic cardiomyopathy (HCM) patients and is related to worse adverse prognosis in HCM patients. However, there are no acknowledged warning characteristics to help to identify OSA in HCM patients. Methods Seventy-one HCM patients and forty-nine hypertensive (HTN) patients as control group underwent polysomnography (PSG) examination at the Second Affiliated Hospital of Nanchang University from January 2015 to December 2019 patients were consecutively enrolled. The characteristics were analyzed and compared between HCM patients with OSA and without OSA. Results A total of 37 (52%) HCM patients and 25 (51%) HTN patients were diagnosed with OSA. High body mass index (BMI) (OR = 1.228, 95% CI: 1.032,1.461, P = 0.020) and low estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR) (OR = 0.959, 95% CI: 0.931,0.989, P = 0.007) independently correlated with the occurrence of OSA in HCM patients, respectively. Multiplicative interaction was shown between high BMI and low eGFR on the risk of OSA in HCM patients (OR: 6.050, 95% CI: 1.598, 22.905, P = 0.008). The additive interaction analysis further suggested that 70.1% of HCM patients developed OSA due to the additive interaction between BMI and eGFR. The identification ability of OSA in HCM patients was significantly enhanced by using both BMI and eGFR (area under receiver-operating characteristic analysis curve 0.785; P = 0.000038) as compared with BMI (area under curve 0.683, P = 0.008) or eGFR (area under curve 0.700, P = 0.004), respectively. Conclusion High BMI or low eGFR independently related to the occurrence of OSA in HCM patients, and the multiplicative and additive interactions between BMI and eGFR increased the identification ability of OSA in HCM patients.
