Abstract

In the circumstances of similar AHI, the MSaO(2) and LSaO(2) in moderate and severe OSAS patients were significantly lower in Tibetan group than in Han group, and the differences partially remained after adjusting for BMI, and the mechanisms needed to be further investigated in high altitude areas.
