Plasma level of hypoxanthine/xanthine as markers of oxidative stress with different stages of obstructive sleep apnea syndrome
BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVES: Tissue hypoxia due to repeated apneas among patients of obstructive sleep apnea syndrome (OSAS) leads to cumulative oxidative stress. It is established that an increased plasma level of hypoxanthine/xanthine may serve as a criterion of tissue hypoxia. We presumed that plas...
