Abstract
Summary of the research findings
Objective/background: Obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) is a sleep-related breathing disorder that has a complex phenotype. Currently, few genes have been linked with OSA. Thus, the aim of this study was to conduct a genome-wide association study (GWAS) of the apnea-hypopnea index (AHI) variation along time (delta-AHI) in a prospective cohort.
