Severity of tongue base collapse in various body positions in patients with obstructive sleep apnea: A trajectory analysis

CONCLUSION: In patients with obstructive sleep apnea, tongue strength may vary depending on body position. Our results should be interpreted with caution because of the limited sample size. Future studies should investigate the effect of oropharyngeal rehabilitation on tongue strength and collapse severity.PMID:38423924 | DOI:10.1016/j.jfma.2024.01.033
