Association between UA characteristics and the initiation of home CPAP treatment in the regression model.
| Dependent variable | Independent variable | B | P | OR (95% CI) |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Initiation of home CPAP | Nasal turbinate hypertrophy | −1.358 | 0.021 | 0.257 (0.081–0.813) |
| Mandibular retrusion | −1.143 | 0.027 | 0.319 (0.116–0.876) | |
| Positive Müller maneuver in the RP region | 1.637 | 0.014 | 5.140 (1.393–18.962) | |
| Positive Müller maneuver in the RG region | 1.251 | 0.012 | 3.495 (1.309–9.327) |
OR, odds ratio; CI, confidence interval; CPAP, continuous positive airway pressure; UA, upper airway.
