Description
Summary:Objective: To evaluate the relationship between redcell distrubution width (RDW), platelet distribution width (PDW), mean platelet volume (MPV) parameters and the disease severity in Obstructive sleep apnea syndrome (OSAS) patients; to benefit from the biomarkers to take early measures on disease treatment, follow-up and complications (as thromboembolic events and cardiovascular diseases). Materials and Methods: Our study is a retrospective and a cross-sectional study and we planned to asses polysomnography (PSG) records of the patients. Patients who were diagnosed with OSAS by PSG were grouped as 108 mild patients with [Respiratory Disturbance Index (RDI): 5-14.9]; 69 moderate patients (RDI: 15-30); 66 severe patients (RDI>30) and 117 patients were control group (RDI
