Özet

Objective: Obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) is a common disease, which may cause oxidative stress because of intermittent apnea/hypopnea attacks occurring during sleep. In this study, we aimed to investigate the relation between oxidative stress and OSA by examining the serum levels of paraoxonase-1 (PON1), arylesterase (ARES), and oxidized low-density lipoprotein (LDL) as well as galectin-1 (gal-1) in patients with OSA.
