  1. Normally distributed data were expressed as mean ± SD, skewed data (including TG, HDL-C and fasting glucose) were presented as median (interquartile range)
  2. OSA Obstructive sleep apnea, TC Total cholesterol, TG Triglycerides, HDL-C High-density lipoprotein-cholesterol, LDL-C Low-density lipoprotein-cholesterol, Hs-crp High-sensitivity C-reactive protein, *p was considered statistically significant
