Effect of indoor air quality on potential risk of obstructive sleep apnea: results from Korea National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey
Our study found a potential association between elevated indoor HCHO levels and increased OSA risk in men. These findings highlight the importance of indoor air quality in OSA prevention, supporting the future development of more effective prevention models and interventions.
