Putative associations between inflammatory biomarkers, obesity, and obstructive sleep apnea
BACKGROUND: Previous studies have reported increased levels of inflammatory mediators in patients with obstructive sleep apnea (OSA), but their relation with the severity of OSA is controversial.OBJECTIVE: To address potential relationships between OSA-related inflammatory markers, namely, C-reactiv...
