This study evaluates epigenetics in morbid obese patients who are waiting for bariatric surgery. A home cardiopulmonary polygraphy is performed to evaluate for the presence of sleep-disordered breathing. The principal investigator make the decision of starting CPAP among patients with obstructive sleep apnea according to current clinical guidelines. One year follow up after bariatric surgery will be performed. A total of 5 visits will be scheduled: two of them before bariatric surgery and 3 after (3, 6 and 12 months).
At every visit, all patients had: sleep questionaries, blood samples, EKG-Holter and spirometry are collected.
