More than two-thirds of the respondents were obese; 69.6% had a BMI > 30 kg/m<sup>2</sup>, and 47.6% had a BMI > 33 kg/m<sup>2</sup>. 35.6% of CMVDs surveyed had a BMI > 35 kg/m<sup>2</sup>. Figure 1 presents a frequency histogram of BMIs of the respondents. Obesity correlated with snoring loudness (the louder the snoring, the greater likelihood of obesity) (p<0.05) and with hypertension (p<0.05). More than a third (39.5%) of participants reported hypertension, which correlated with feeling tired/fatigued after sleep (p<0.05) | More than two-thirds of the respondents were obese; 69.6% had a BMI > 30 kg/m<sup>2</sup>, and 47.6% had a BMI > 33 kg/m<sup>2</sup>. 35.6% of CMVDs surveyed had a BMI > 35 kg/m<sup>2</sup>.
