Evaluating cystatin-C and monocyte-to-high-density lipoprotein cholesterol ratio as indicators of obstructive sleep apnea severity in male patients
Cys-C and MHR are positively associated with OSA severity, with MHR emerging as a stronger independent biomarker. Incorporating these markers into OSA risk stratification may enhance clinical assessment and targeted interventions. Future large-scale prospective studies are needed to validate their prognostic value and clinical utility.
