Determinants of the awakening rise in systemic blood pressure in obstructive sleep apnea syndrome.

abstract：BACKGROUND:Endothelial dysfunction plays a major role in erectile dysfunction (ED). Uric acid (UA) is a marker of endothelial dysfunction. We hypothesized that increased UA levels may be associated with ED and aimed to investigate whether there is a relationship between, UA and ED in hypertensive patients. METHODS:A t...
