Notes
No reliable figure found. source_id is a placeholder (no sleep source used). Checked: web search for national population-based OSA studies. Why: only local questionnaire studies found (Berlin questionnaire 'high risk of OSA' 18.5% in a Kuantan community sample n=157; 32.9% in Kuantan primary-care attendees n=252), both in IIUM Medical Journal Malaysia (journals.iium.edu.my returned 403, not fetched); neither national nor PSG-based. Best lead: NHMS (National Health and Morbidity Survey, IKU/MOH) if it adds a sleep module; Benjafield et al. 2019 Lancet Respir Med modelled country estimates.
