Brief Summary

Specific Aim

  1. 1.To identify specific SNPs of HIF-1 gene related to cardiovascular disease in OSA patients (CVD-OSA)
  2. 2.To assay the functional activity of high risk SNPs of HIF-1 on the transcription of VEGF gene
  3. 3.To confirm that the serum level of VEGF in CVD-OSA patients with high risk SNPs of HIF-1 are higher than CVD-OSA patients without
