Sleep apnea and strokes

Has anyone seen incontrovertible evidence that sleep apnea is the case of strokes please ? I've seen evidence of sleep apnea causing high blood pressure which can lead to strokes but where is the evidence of sleep apnea causing strokes in people with normal blood pressure ? Thanks.
