Abstract
The majority of studies that performed explored blood-based biomarkers, with most not identifying definitive morbidity biomarkers. Of the potentially promising morbidity biomarkers, plasma IL-6 and high sensitivity C-reactive protein appear to exhibit a favorable profile, and may discriminate OSA patients with and without morbidities in both adults and children. MRP 8/14 was retained in children as well as cardiovascular morbidity-associated biomarker. Urinary neurotransmitters may also provide a good tool for screening OSA cognitive morbidity in children.
