Notes
Chou et al. 2023 report 69.5% OSAS in 1,372 ENT-clinic patients aged 30-70 (home sleep test) - a referred clinical sample, not population prevalence, so not recorded. A modelled national estimate (23.6% for ages 30-69, Benjafield et al.) was seen only inside a secondary snippet and was not fetched; and a 2.6% older Taiwan figure (Chuang 2008) was not verified. Needs a desk follow-up.
