Figure Legend Snippet: Following recruitment, participants completed a screening night using an ApneaLink device after 4 days without continuous positive airway pressure (CPAP) to confirm persistent obstructive sleep apnoea off treatment. After screening, participants resumed CPAP for a minimum of 2 weeks before entering the interventional phase. Participants then completed three visits scheduled two weeks apart: visit 1 (V1) on usual CPAP, visit 2 (V2) after 2 weeks of CPAP withdrawal (off CPAP), and visit 3 (V3) after 2 weeks of CPAP re-initiation (on CPAP). At each visit, participants underwent ambulatory overnight respiratory polygraphy followed the next morning by standardised vascular and autonomic assessments, including brachial artery flow-mediated dilation (FMD) and spontaneous baroreflex sensitivity (BRS).

Figure Legend Snippet: Patients followed at the Centre d’Investigation et de Recherche sur le Sommeil, for CPAP therapy were assessed for eligibility and included between 12 January 2024 and 12 May 2025. Included participants then underwent an ambulatory CPAP discontinuation screening period to confirm persistent obstructive sleep apnoea (OSA) off treatment. Participants with an apnoea-hypopnoea index (AHI) <15 events/h on ApneaLink™ after 4 nights without CPAP were excluded. Participants who met the screening criterion were subsequently enrolled into the interventional phase. The final analysis included those who completed all three visits with adherence to the CPAP withdrawal and re-initiation protocol.
