Nonalcoholic fatty liver disease is associated with the development of obstructive sleep apnea
Abstract Increasing evidence suggests that obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) is a metabolic syndrome-related disease; however, the association between nonalcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD) and OSA is not firmly established. In this study, we investigated the relationship between NAFLD and OSA in a ge...
