Abstract excerpt
BACKGROUND: Obstructive sleep apnea hypopnea syndrome (OSAHS) is regarded as a disease with strong genetic background and associated with hypoadiponectinemia. It is worthwhile to investigate the possible correlation between the single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) in the adiponectin gene and OSAHS. METHODS: With the TaqMan polymerase chain reaction (PCR) method, the SNPs at positions 45 and 276 in the...
