Obstructive Sleep Apnea and Immunity: Relationship of Lymphocyte Count and Apnea Hypopnea Index

Objectives: The impact of chronic poor quality sleep on immunity as seen in obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) has not been evaluated. We aim to explore the relationship between lymphocytes, neutrophil, and total leukocyte counts with severity stratified apnea hypopnea index (AHI) in patients with OSA. Methods: A retrospective review of…
