Associations between cardiometabolic phenotypes and levels of TNF-α, CRP, and interleukins in obstructive sleep apnea.

Our results revealed that inflammatory proteins TNF-α, CRP, and IL-6 levels were higher in obese and hypertensive patients with OSA and CRP levels were higher in OSA with metabolic syndrome, highlighting a link between inflammation and cardiometabolic complications in patients with OSA.
