Impact of C-reactive protein–triglyceride–glucose and systemic immune-inflammation indices on obstructive sleep apnea in older adults with depression

ObjectiveBoth the C-reactive protein (CRP)–triglyceride–glucose index (CTI) and the systemic immune-inflammation index (SII) are easily accessible, cost-effective, and rapid indices derived from biochemical examinations. The study aimed to identify the roles of the CTI and SII in older adults with…
