Study Details

Study Description

Brief Summary

This study aimed to correlate serum uric acid levels and PAH in OSAHS patients.

Condition or Disease Intervention/Treatment Phase
  • Diagnostic Test: polysomnography
N/A

Detailed Description

Obstructive sleep apnea-hypopnea syndrome is the most common form of SRBDs. Recurrent hypoxia, that accompanies OSAHS increases the degradation of ATP, which in turn increase uric acid concentration that can be used as a biomarker of tissue hypoxia in OSAHS. There is still debate about whether OSAHS is an independent contributor to pulmonary arterial hypertension.

AIM OF THE WORK This study aimed to correlate serum uric acid levels and PAH in OSAHS patients. Methods We enrolled 100 patients diagnosed with OSAHS using polysomnography. Patients were divided into three severity groups: mild OSA (5 ≤ AHI < 15), moderate OSA (15 ≤ AHI < 30), and severe (30 ≤ AHI < 60). Serum uric acid was measured the morning after polysomnography. All patients underwent standard echocardiograms, and Pulmonary artery systolic pressure calculation was done.
