DEG screening and visualization for GSE135917. (a) Volcano plot of the DEGs for OSA samples vs. normal controls. Each dot represents a gene (red: upregulated gene; blue: downregulated gene; black: no significant difference). (b) Heat map and clustering pattern of the DEGs including 342 downregulated and 31 upregulated genes. Red or blue indicates either higher or lower expression levels of DEGs. Samples were separated into the normal and OSA cluster.
