Association between METS-IR index and obstructive sleep apnea: evidence from NHANES.

ABSTRACT: Insulin resistance (IR) is strongly associated with obstructive sleep apnea (OSA). Whereas, few studies have focused on the potential association between the Metabolic Score for Insulin Resistance (METS-IR), a novel non-insulin-dependent IR index, and OSA. Subjects from the National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey (NHANES) spanning 2005-2008 and 2015-2018 were recruited. The potential relationship between METS-IR and other IR indices with OSA was explored through three logistic regression analysis models and restricted cubic spline (RCS) curves. Receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curves were used to assess the diagnostic value of these indicators for OSA. On the basis of age, sex, race, body mass index (BMI), hypertension, diabetes， and cardiovascular disease (CVD), subgroup a
