Predictors of obstructive sleep apnea in snorers
On page 421, in the abstract, 41.5% of the female group had obstructive sleep apnea, not 39%.
On page 422, under results, OSA was seen more in non-Qatari subjects (86 of 116 [74.1%]) than in Qatari subjects (40 of 75[53.3%]) (P< 0.05), not in 84 non-Qatari and 38 Qatari subjects.
On page 423, in Table 1, the mean age in females in the RDI positive group is 51.8±8.2 years and the mean age in the RDI negative group is 50.3±10.7 years. The statistical analysis shown in the table compares the positive RDI group versus the negative RDI group in the same gender. The ANOVA test was used to derive the significance of age difference for males and females in the positive RDI group.
On page 424, the frequency of PSG diagnosed OSA was 66% as mentioned in the abstract and not 72.5%, as it appeared in the text.
