Methods:Sixty-two patients with OSAHS and 32 non-OSAHS patients (control group) which all diagnosed by polysomnography (PSG) were chosen from The First Hospital of Lanzhou University, and they were assessed by QOL using the Short-Form 36 Health Survey questionnaire (SF-36), by EDS using the Epworth sleepiness scale (ESS), and for cognition disorders by mini-mental state examination (MMSE).The associations between the total score on the SF-36 and the baseline characteristics, PSG parameters, such as ESS score, and MMSE score were examined by simple regression analysis and stepwise multiple regression analysis.Results:The scores of SF-36 and MMSE in OSAHS group were significantly lower than the control group (63.9?14.7/78.8?4.5, 24.6?2.0/27.1?1.3,P
