Abstract excerpt

BACKGROUND: Obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) is emerging as a significant disorder in India. Tumor necrosis factor-alpha (TNFalpha) is an important marker of inflammation. Recent data indicate that inflammation may be an important correlate of OSA. The relationships of OSA with TNFalpha levels and TNFalpha gene promoter polymorphism (-308G/A) have not been investigated in obese Asian Indians with OSA. OBJECTIVE: To...
