Abstract
Background: The occurrence of hypoxia during apneas and hypopneas is associated with the triggering of an inflammatory response.
Objectives: This study investigates the alterations in polysomnography (PSG) data, inflammatory markers, and the correlation between these alterations in patients undergoing sleep surgery.
Methods: The data of 66 patients who underwent drug-induced sleep endoscopy followed by appropriate sleep surgery, with follow-up PSG performed at 3 to 6 months postoperatively, were retrospectively analyzed. Additionally, correlations with inflammatory markers, including the neutrophil-to-lymphocyte ratio (NLR), platelet-to-lymphocyte ratio (PLR), lymphocyte-to-monocyte ratio (LMR), eosinophil-to-lymphocyte ratio (ELR) and systemic immune-inflammation index (SII), were investigated.
Results: Comparison of preoperative and postoperative inflammatory markers revealed statistically significant reductions in NLR, PLR, and SII (p < 0.001, p = 0.023, p = 0.026, respectively). Significant positive correlations were identified between AHI and NLR (p = 0.001, r = 0.400), PLR (p = 0.001, r = 0.415) and SII (p = 0.010, r = 0.392). Similarly, a significant positive correlation was observed between supine AHI and NLR (p = 0.035, r = 0.379), PLR (p = 0.008, r = 0.325), and SII (p = 0.030, r = 0.367). The time spent with SaO2 below 90% was found to be significantly and positively correlated with NLR (p = 0.023, r = 0.279), PLR (p = 0.027, r = 0.272), and SII (p = 0.033, r = 0.256).
Conclusions and significance: A correlation was observed between the postoperative decrease in SII, NLR, and PLR values and PSG data in patients.
