An in vitro method predicts the response to continuous positive airway pressure (CPAP) in a subject in need thereof. The method includes determining in an isolated sample of the subject the level of expression of a cardiovascular system functionally related microRNA differentially expressed in patients with cardiovascular disease. The microRNA is selected from the group: miR.100.5p, miR.378a.3p, miR.486.5p, and combinations thereof. |
