A recent Letter published, in the Journal of Otolaryngology-Head & Neck Surgery in response to our original article "Risk of diabetes in patients with sleep apnea: comparison of surgery versus Continous Positive Airway Pressure in a long-term follow-up study" raised some issues we would like to address here. However, we thank the authors for their effort and time in analyzing our manuscript and we want to facilitate a balanced discussion on this topic with our reply.
