Independent association of severity of obstructive sleep apnea with lipid metabolism of atherogenic index of plasma (AIP) and apoB/apoAI ratio.

CONCLUSION: AHI was independently correlated with AIP and apoB/apoAI ratio in OSA. Our findings suggested that AIP and apoB/apoAI ratio increased with OSA severity, which might be partly responsible for the high risk of CVDs in OSA. PMID: 31981042 [PubMed - as supplied by publisher]
