Abstract:
OBJECTIVE To investigate the correlation between serum levels of asprosin and adropin in elderly patients with obstructive sleep apnea syndrome(OSAS)and the disease severity.METHODS From August 2021 to August 2023,131 elderly OSAS patients admitted to Ezhou Central Hospital were collected as observation subjects(OSAS group),according to the sleep apnea hypopnea index(AHI),there were 40 cases in the mild group,52 cases in the moderate group,and 39 cases in the severe group,meantime,124 healthy individuals who came to health clinic of our hospital for physical examination were collected as the control group.Enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay(ELISA)was applied to determine the levels of asprosin and apropin in the serum of OSAS patients;Pearson method was applied to analyze the correlation between serum asprosin,apropin levels and AHI,ODI,and LSaO2.ROC curve was used to analyze the diagnostic value of serum asprosin and adropin levels in OSAS and the severity of OSAS patients.RESULTS Compared with the control group,the asprosin level in the OSAS group was obviously increased,while the adropin level was obviously reduced(P<0.05).There was no statistically obvious difference in gender,age,coronary heart disease,hypertension,TC,TG,HDL-C,LDL-C among the mild,moderate,and severe groups(P>0.05);compared with the mild group,the levels of BMI,AHI,ODI,and asprosin in the moderate and severe groups were obviously increased,while the levels of LSaO2 and apropin were obviously reduced(P<0.05);compared with the moderate group,the levels of BMI,AHI,ODI,and asprosin in the severe group were obviously increased,while the levels of LSaO2 and apropin were obviously reduced(P<0.05).The serum asprosin level in OSAS patients was positively correlated with AHI and ODI,and negatively correlated with LSaO2(P<0.05);the level of apropin was negatively correlated with AHI and ODI,and positively correlated with LSaO2(P<0.05).The AUC of serum asprosin,apropin levels,and their combination in diagnosing moderate and severe OSAS was 0.832,0.882,and 0.942,respectively,the combined diagnostic value of the two was superior to that of single diagnosis(Z=3.435,2.560,P=0.001,0.011).Serum asprosin,adropin levels and AUC of combined diagnosis of OSAS were 0.818,0.804 and 0.893,respectively.The value of combined diagnosis was better than that of single diagnosis(Z=3.886,4.126,P=0.000,0.000).CONCLUSION The serum level of asprosin is increased and the level of adropin is decreased in patients with OSAS,which is closely related to the severity of the disease,and may be used in the clinical diagnosis of OSAS and the evaluation of the severity of OSAS.
