Study Details
A study to see how sleep apnea affects gene expression and function
(IRB#: IRB_00190590)
Patients with obstructive sleep apnea or no sleep apnea will participate in this study. The purpose of this research is to learn more about low levels of oxygen in the body (hypoxia) so that better treatments can be made for people that have hypoxia-related problems like sleep apnea. If you participate, you will have 2 visits at the study center, and a blood sample will be taken at each of those visits.
