Abstract: Obstructive sleep apnea-hypopnea syndrome(OSAHS)is a common sleep apnea disorder. Both OSAHS and lipid metabolism disorders are important chronic conditions affecting human health, and they are closely related to the development of cardiovascular and cerebrovascular diseases. This article will review the possible pathophysiological mechanisms underlying the effect of OSAHS on dyslipidemia and the progress of related clinical research.

Key words: Sleep apnea-hypopnea syndrome, Dyslipidemia, Intermittent hypoxia, Sleep fragmentation, Lipoproteins
