Research Article: The long-term prognostic implications of free triiodothyronine to free thyroxine ratio in patients with obstructive sleep apnea and acute coronary syndrome
Introduction:
Objective: Obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) and thyroid dysfunction frequently overlap clinically and are risk factors for cardiovascular disease. The free triiodothyronine to free thyroxine (FT3/FT4) ratio as a novel biomarker of cardiovascular disease prognosis, but the impact of the FT3/FT4 ratio on the prognosis of OSA in patients with acute coronary syndromes (ACS) remains uncertain.
