I suspect the impact would be extremely small compared to BMI, so it would be likely that there would be a link because of some dependent variables.

- oremolten 2y agoI bet there is also a large correlation with computer/phone neck and posture
- hammock 2y agoOk, what about looking at nose shape of diaspora that have historically (multigenerationally) high BMI? Not an expert but might suggest Inuit, some Pacific Islanders, Māori, west Africans maybe. How are their noses shaped and anything that might help with apnea?
- ratmeadow 2y agoBMI is a contributing factor, but so is neck and throat anatomy, regardless of weight. There are plenty of non-overweight people who have sleep apnea. And treatment sucks because so many doctors don't know anything past "you should lose weight".
