The impact of comprehensive healthy lifestyles on obstructive sleep apnea and the mediating role of BMI: insights from NHANES 2005–2008 and 2015–2018
This study revealed that adherence to healthy lifestyles significantly reduces the odds of OSA, with optimal lifestyles leading to a marked decrease in the odds of OSA. Notably, BMI plays a critical mediating role in this relationship. These findings emphasize the importance of promoting healthy lifestyle interventions as a key strategy for the prevention and management of OSA.
