Zusammenfassung:Objectives To assess the independent relationships of obesity and obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) with hypertension/elevated blood pressure (EBP) in adolescent patients. Study Design A retrospective cohort analysis was performed on 501 patients (age 13‐21 years) with three separate blood pressure measurements within 6 months of polysomnography. EBP was defined as average systolic blood pressure (SBP) ≤120 mm Hg; obesity as body mass index Z‐score ≤1.65; and OSA as obstructive apnea‐hypopnea index
