Abstract excerpt

BACKGROUND: Involvement of epidermal growth factor (EGF) is reported in diseases caused by hypoxia. Its functional polymorphism may alter its transcription, affecting EGF expression, contributing to obstructive sleep apnea (OSA). OBJECTIVE: The aim of this study was to investigate associations of EGF+61 polymorphism and risk of OSA. METHODS: Two hundred two participants were enrolled in this case-control study....
