Obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) is a common disorder leading to increased risk of developing cardiovascular diseases (CVDs) by supporting low-grade chronic inflammation as one the pathological mechanisms. The continuous positive airway pressure (CPAP) device used an effective treatment for moderate and severe OSA. Neutrophil-lymphocyte ratio (NLR), platelet-lymphocyte (PLR), white blood cell-mean platelet volume (WMR), C-reactive protein-albumin (CAR) fibrinogen-albumin (FAR) are new potential...
