Brief Summary: AIMSTo know the effects of the treatment with nasal positive continuous airway pressure CPAP on systemic blood pressure and the expression of biological mediators in systemic hypertension of recent diagnostic whose have an apnea-hypopnea index 15

METHODOLOGY DESIGN Prospective multicenter randomized study of parallel groups and controlled with placebo in patients diagnosed of systemic hypertension SH with an apnea-hypopnea index by conventional polysomnography 15 A total of 340 patients with recently diagnosed of SH and without any pharmacological treatment will be studied All patients will be randomized to receive alternatively CPAP treatment with optimal pressure titled with a proved system or Sham-CPAP for 12 weeks

MEASUREMENTS A Conventional polysomnography at baseline B Clinic sleepiness ATS Basic Nordic Sleep Questionnaire and Epworth quality of life EuroQol C 24 hour blood pressure monitoring D Expression of biological mediators in blood general determinations endothelial inflammatory lipid renin-angiotensin-aldosterone and adrenergic mediators

ANALYSIS Baseline measurements of all the variables will be compared with the situation at six and twelve weeks We will use the chi square test and the Fishers exact test categorical variables the t test for continous variables and repeated measures ANCOVA for the primary objective The analyses will be done under the criterion of intention to treat and for protocol The variables will be controlled by the compliance with the CPAP
