We found VWF rs1063856 (OR = 1.50, 95% CIs = 1.10-2.04; p = 0.010), IL-6 rs1800796 (OR = 1.32, 95% CIs = 1.11-1.56; p = 0.002), TNF rs1800629 (OR = 1.44, 95% CIs = 1.13-1.83; p = 0.003), and CRP rs2794521 (OR = 1.27, 95% CIs = 1.04-1.55; p = 0.021) were all significantly associated with increased susceptibility of OSA, while VWF rs1063856 (OR = 1.75, 95% CIs = 1.18-2.62; p = 0.006), IL-6 rs1800796 (OR = 1.39, 95% CIs = 1.10-1.76; p = 0.006) were associated with the severity of OSA.
The study was conducted to investigate the association of CRP rs1130864 (1444C/T), IL-6 rs1800795 (-174G/C) and LEPR rs1137101 (Q223R) genes with OSA and NAFLD in Asian Indians residing in North India.
