The emergence of obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) is marked by a growing trend towards younger individuals, while its developmental trajectory remains shrouded in uncertainty, accompanied by intricate prognostic implications. While frailty and sleep problems often coexist, the relationship between them remains unclear. Hence, this study aims to utilize the National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey (NHANES) database from 2005 to 2008 to analyze and explore the relationship between the level of frailty index (FI) and the risk of OSA incidence and survival outcomes.
