  • Logistic regression models using apnoea–hypopnoea index as a dependent variable in model 1, oxygen desaturation index (ODI)3% in model 2 and ODI4% in model 3. The unadjusted models only included polygraphic or oximetric parameters. The full adjusted models also included age, sex and body mass index. #: p=0.003; : p=0.012; +: p=0.006; §: p=0.008; ƒ: p=0.023.
