Association Between Suicidal Behaviors and Obstructive Sleep Apnea Based on the STOP-Bang Questionnaire

Résumé fourni par la source

We studied the association between obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) based on STOP-Bang questionnaire and suicidal risk behaviors (ideations, plans, and attempts) in the general population using a nationally representative sample from South Korea. Data were obtained from 11,917 adults (aged ≥40 years) who participated in the Korea National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey (2019-2020). Multiple logistic regression analyses were used to evaluate the association between suicidal behaviors and intermediate-high risk OSA (STOP-Bang score ≥3). < .001, respectively). A multivariate analysis after adjusting revealed that the odds ratios for suicidal ideations, planning, and attempts were 1.42 (95% confidence interval [CI]: 1.00-2.02), 1.21 (95% CI: 1.01-1.77), and 3.29 (95% CI: 1.50-7.24), respectively, in the intermediate-high risk OSA group. Moderate-high risk groups of OSA based on the STOP-Bang questionnaire were associated with suicidal behaviors in a Korean population.
