RESULTS
In total, 80 control subjects without OSAS, 85 patients with moderate
OSAS, and 82 patients with severe OSAS were included in the study. There
were no significant differences between the groups in terms of age, BMI,
or thyroid function test results (Table 1). Total testosterone level was
significantly higher in the control group compared to both OSAS groups.
This was not statistically significant for the moderate OSAS group, it
was statistically significant for the severe OSAS group (p: 0.08, p:
0.001, respectively).
