Abstract
Purpose: To investigate the effect of continuous positive airway pressure (CPAP) on sleep electroencephalogram (EEG) activity in patients with obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) and to examine the correlation between quantitative EEG changes and cognitive function. Patients and Methods: A total of 69 men and 11 women were collected with an average age of 39.61 ± 7.67 years old from among middle-aged patients who had first visits with snoring as their main complaint. All of them completed sleep questionnaires, neurocognitive tests and night polysomnography (PSG). The patients in the OSA group also completed the second night of PSG monitoring under CPAP after pressure titration. A power spectrum analysis of EEG was used, and the correlation between the frequency powers of EEG and the scores of the Epworth Sleepiness Scale (ESS), Pittsburgh Sleep Quality Index (PSQI), Mini-Mental State Examination (MMSE), and the Montreal Cognitive Assessment (MoCA) were further analyzed. Results: Compared with the control group, the delta/alpha power ratio (DAR) and the (delta + theta)/(alpha + beta) power ratio (the slowing ratio, TSR) of the OSA group before CPAP were higher ( P < 0.05). The DAR and TSR of the OSA patients decreased significantly after CPAP. ESS scores were correlated with parameters such as respiratory-related microarousal index (RRMAI), apnea hypopnea index (AHI), and the average absolute power of delta, DAR and TSR ( P < 0.05). The PSQI, MMSE and MoCA scores were not correlated with the average absolute power of each frequency band, DAR or TSR ( P > 0.05). Conclusion: Patients with OSA have greater slow frequency EEG activity during sleep than the control group. CPAP treatment reversed the slow frequency EEG activity in patients with OSA.

Full frame distilled prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from it
