Increased Prevalence of Sleep-Disordered Breathing in Adults
Open accessAbstract
Sleep-disordered breathing is a common disorder with a range of harmful sequelae. Obesity is a strong causal factor for sleep-disordered breathing, and because of the ongoing obesity epidemic, previous estimates of sleep-disordered breathing prevalence require updating. We estimated the prevalence of sleep-disordered breathing in the United States for the periods of 1988-1994 and 2007-2010 using data from the Wisconsin Sleep Cohort Study, an ongoing community-based study that was established in 1988 with participants randomly selected from an employed population of Wisconsin adults. A total of 1,520 participants who were 30-70 years of age had baseline polysomnography studies to assess the presence of sleep-disordered breathing. Participants were invited for repeat studies at 4-year intervals. The prevalence of sleep-disordered breathing was modeled as a function of age, sex, and body mass index, and estimates were extrapolated to US body mass index distributions estimated using data from the National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey. The current prevalence estimates of moderate to severe sleep-disordered breathing (apnea-hypopnea index, measured as events/hour, ≥15) are 10% (95% confidence interval (CI): 7, 12) among 30-49-year-old men; 17% (95% CI: 15, 21) among 50-70-year-old men; 3% (95% CI: 2, 4) among 30-49-year-old women; and 9% (95% CI: 7, 11) among 50-70 year-old women. These estimated prevalence rates represent substantial increases over the last 2 decades (relative increases of between 14% and 55% depending on the subgroup).

The association between BMI and OSA decreases with age, and after age 60 years may be less significant.
“However, this association with BMI decreases with age, and after age 60 years may be less significant.95”
From International Consensus Statement on Obstructive Sleep Apnea (2023) · cites this paper as [95]
The Results report that BMI was more strongly related to sleep-disordered breathing prevalence in the younger age stratum, supporting the age-related weakening of the association. The paper compares younger adults with a 50–70-year-old group; it does not establish a change specifically after age 60 or show that the association becomes statistically less significant then. The supplied Results passage has no page number. (LLM, conf=0.88)
Experimental — accuracy not yet measuredOSA is prevalent in 44.6% of men and 13.5% of women aged 30-49 years with BMI 30-39.9 kg/m2, compared to 7% of men and 1.4% of women whose BMI is less than 25 kg/m2.

Table 2 (indexed under Discussion; page not provided) gives all four cited estimates for adults aged 30–49 in the specified BMI groups. But it labels them as mild-to-severe sleep-disordered breathing (AHI ≥5), not OSA; the Discussion describes more restrictive criteria for a positive indication of OSA. The figures are supported, but their characterization as OSA prevalence is not. (LLM, conf=0.86)

The Discussion (p. 1009) estimates substantial prevalence of sleep-disordered breathing among US adults aged 30–70 and says the measured definitions meet criteria for an indication of OSA. The paper mentions hypertension as a possible long-term consequence of sleep-disordered breathing, but does not establish that hypertension is highly prevalent in the general population.

Experimental — accuracy not yet measuredSleep debt, circadian misalignment, and sleep disruption from obstructive sleep apnea are widespread in modern society.
“Sleep debt, circadian misalignment and sleep disruption from obstructive sleep apnea is widespread in modern society and accumulates with life because recovery sleep is not completely restorative.”

The opening section identifies fragmented sleep as an immediate effect of sleep-disordered breathing, and the Discussion (p. 1009) estimates substantial prevalence among US adults aged 30–70. The paper does not address whether sleep debt or circadian misalignment are widespread, or whether incomplete restoration by recovery sleep causes these problems to accumulate with age.

The Discussion (p. 1009) estimates that 13% of men and 6% of women aged 30–70 have moderate-to-severe sleep-disordered breathing and says this meets Medicare criteria for a positive indication of OSA. Those figures make approximately 10% plausible for the adults studied, but the paper does not estimate prevalence for the general population across all ages. (LLM, conf=0.86)

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
