Sleep Time With Oxygen Saturation Below 90%

Percentage of Sleep time with oxygen saturation below 90% (measured by oximetry). Marker of consequences of apneas/hypopneas on arterial oxygenation during sleep during one night after one month of treatment. Higher percentage are worst for the patients. (NCT00816829)
Timeframe: at one month of treatment

InterventionPercentage of sleep time (Median)
Placebo11.5
Fenofibrate3.5
