Reduction in circulating endothelial progenitor cells caused by obstructive sleep apnea–related hypoxemia and its association with the severity of coronary artery disease
Hehe Zhang, Jing Zhang, Yun Lin, Yuanni Jiao et autres
BACKGROUND: Obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) is a risk factor for coronary artery disease (CAD), while endothelial progenitor cells (EPCs) are critical for vascular repair. This study investigated the associations among OSA-related hypoxemia, circulating EPC, and CAD severity. METHODS: This prospective study enrolled …
