Obstructive sleep apnea is a disorder in which the upper air passage narrows or closes during sleep, causing interrupted breathing. [verywell.com]
Obesity
Diagnosis of obstructive sleep apnea is made when symptomatic patients have an apnea– hypopnea index — the number of episodes of apnea and hypopnea per hour of total sleep [doi.org]
Obesity is a well-recognized risk factor for obstructive sleep apnea. [doi.org]
Obstructive sleep apnea The prevalence of obstructive sleep apnea in the general population is highly variable, ranging from 25% to 58% among men and from 10% to 37% among [doi.org]
