Evaluation of circulating markers of hepatic apoptosis and inflammation in obese children with and without obstructive sleep apnea
Highlights • Circulating markers of hepatocyte apoptosis were significantly altered in children with obstructive sleep apnea (OSA). • Levels of soluble CD163, a marker of macrophage activation, increased significantly in children with OSA and improved after OSA treatment. • These findings indicate t...

Zusammenfassung: | Highlights • Circulating markers of hepatocyte apoptosis were significantly altered in children with obstructive sleep apnea (OSA). • Levels of soluble CD163, a marker of macrophage activation, increased significantly in children with OSA and improved after OSA treatment. • These findings indicate that children with OSA have increased apoptotic and inflammatory pressures. |
