Evaluation of Potential Biomarkers for Obstructive Sleep Apnea and the Effect of Positive Pressure Treatment

Completed
Conditions
Obstructive Sleep Apnea
Registration Number
NCT01976052
Lead Sponsor
Karolinska University Hospital
Brief Summary

Potential biomarkers for obstructive sleep apnea (OSA), and full genomic screening will be evaluated and correlated to the degree of OSA and to effect of CPAP-treatment measured by polygraphy.
