Objectives
Identification of suitable biomarkers that facilitate the screening and evaluation of pediatric obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) and its severity was explored.
Methods
Data-independent acquisition quantitative proteomic analysis was employed to identify serum and urine proteins with differential expression patterns between children with OSA and controls. Differentially expressed proteins that gradually increased or decreased with the severity of OSA were retained as potential biomarkers and underwent ELISA validation.
Results
We found that with increasing severity of OSA, there was a gradual upregulation of 34 proteins in the serum and 124 proteins in the urine, along with a respective downregulation of 10 serum proteins and 64 urinary proteins in the initial cohort of 40 children. These proteins primarily participate in immune activation, the complement pathway, oxygen transport, and reactive oxygen metabolism. Notably, cathepsin Z exhibited a positive correlation with the obstructive apnea hypopnea index, whereas sex hormone-binding globulin (SHBG) was negatively correlated. These proteins were then validated by ELISA in an independent cohort (n = 21). Circulating cathepsin Z and SHBG levels displayed acceptable diagnostic performance of OSA with AUC values of 0.863 and 0.738, respectively.
Conclusions
We identified two promising circulating proteins as novel biomarkers for clinical diagnosis and assessment of pediatric OSA severity. Furthermore, the comprehensive proteomic profile in pediatric OSA should aid in exploring the underlying pathophysiological mechanisms associated with this prevalent condition.

Introduction
In patients with obstructive sleep apnea (OSA), novel metrics such as hypoxic burden (HB) and sleep apnea-specific pulse-rate response (ΔHR) may better correlate with cardiovascular diseases (CVD) than the apnea–hypopnea index (AHI). This manuscript aims to assess the correlation between ΔHR and HB with subclinical atherosclerosis in patients with OSA, testing the hypothesis that elevated ΔHR and HB are associated with subclinical atherosclerosis development.
Methods
In a prospective study, individuals aged 20–65 years with suspected OSA without known comorbidities were consecutively recruited and defined as OSA (AHI ≥ 5 events/h) or healthy controls. Using bilateral carotid ultrasonography, common carotid intima-media thickness (CIMT) was assessed and the identification of at least one atheromatous plaque defined the presence of subclinical atherosclerosis. ΔHR, and HB were derived from pulse-oximetry.
Results
We studied 296 patients of age 45 ± 10 years old, of whom 28% were women, and with a BMI of 30.3 ± 5.3 kg/m2. Overall, 245 had OSA and 51 were healthy controls. After controlling for confounding variables higher ΔHR but not HB, was associated with higher CIMT (p = 0.006) and higher time spent with oxygen saturation below 90% (T90) was associated with an increase in carotid atheroma plaques (p = 0.032). When stratifying OSA based on HB tertiles, we observed that within tertile 2 of HB, an increase in ΔHR was associated with larger CIMT (p = 0.017).
Conclusion
A higher ΔHR is associated with an increase in CIMT among adult patients with OSA. This study suggests that ΔHR could be a biomarker of risk for CVD in patients with OSA.
