Stepwise multiple regression models of Sestrin2 levels in the control and OSA groups, adjusted R² = 0.375.

	B (SE)	B	P value
Constant	−1.096 (1.022)		0.288
AHI	0.051 (0.011)	0.481	<0.001∗
HDL	3.292 (0.983)	0.356	0.001∗

OSA, obstructive sleep apnea; AHI, apnea/hypopnea index; HDL, high-density lipoprotein. Independent variables considered: age, gender, body mass index, waist-to-hip, AHI, epworth sleepiness score, arousal index, rapid eye movement sleep, triglycerides, total cholesterol, low-density lipoprotein, HDL, Fasting blood glucose. ^∗P < 0.05, the results are statistically significant.
