Özet

Introduction: Obstructive sleep apnea syndrome(OSAS) and Non-Thyroidal Illness Syndrome(NTIS) are two separate disorders associated with inflammatory response to hypoperfusion/hypoxia. We investigated the presence of NTIS in subjects with OSAS and the relationship between thyroid hormone levels and the severity of OSAS.
