Age, sex, and race/ethnicity of our cohort stratified by mixed sleep, predominantly nonsupine sleep, and predominantly supine sleep. For obesity class, class 1 = body mass index (BMI) 100–120% of the 95th percentile, class 2 = BMI > 120% to < 140% of the 95th percentile, and class 3 = >140% of the 95th percentile.
