The association of the non-HDL-cholesterol to HDL-cholesterol ratio (NHHR) with obstructive sleep apnea among adults aged ≥ 40 years: results from NHANES 2015–2018
From 2015 to 2018, among the NHANES population aged over 40, NHHR showed a significant and independent positive association with OSA risk. The consistency of this relationship across various subgroups suggests NHHR's potential as a complementary biomarker for metabolic risk assessment in OSA.
