Spectrum of SDB

Anatomic Determinants of SleepDisordered Breathing Across the Spectrum of Clinical and Nonclinical Male Subjects*

•Apnea occurs due to craniofacial morphology and obesity, each with their contributions

•The single most important cephalometric variable in predicting AHI severity was the horizontal dimension of the maxilla (ie, porion vertical to supradentale [PV-A] distance).

•SDB increased five- to seven-fold in non-obese subjects and threefold in obese subjects
