Odds ratio for sleep apnea with regards to BMI, waist circumference, and index finger circumference

Parameter BMI (kg/m2) Waist circumference (cm) Index finger circumference (mm)
Odds ratioa 1.112 1.042 1.081
95% confidence interval 1.055–1.171 1.019–1.066 1.028–1.136
p value <0.001 <0.001 0.002

aThe odds ratio for sleep apnea was assessed using multivariable logistic regressions, with sleep apnea (previous or newly diagnosed) as the dependent variable and each risk factor as an independent variable (including age and sex as covariates)
