Breathing during sleep was monitored in 8 diabetic patients with objective evidence of autonomic neuropathy and in 8 diabetic patients without neuropathy. Thirty or more periods of apnoea lasting 10 seconds or longer during one night's sleep were demonstrated in 3 of the diabetic patients with autonomic neuropathy. Such apnoeic periods may be related to the high incidence of cardiorespiratory arrests reported in such patients, particularly in association with anaesthesia or pneumonia.
