Following publication of the original article [1], the authors reported an error found in Baseline characteristics of participants section and in Table 1.

The updated Baseline characteristics of participants is given below and the changes have been highlighted in bold typeface.

Baseline characteristics of participants:

The flow chart representing the process of research registration can be found in Figure S3, whereas Table 1 highlights the distribution of clinical characteristics among 1052 individuals with SDB residing in a community. The participants’ age varied from 20 to 90 years, with an average age of 56.15 ± 13.11 years. Among the total sample, 55.7% were identified as male. It is worth mentioning that individuals diagnosed with hyperlipidemia were comparatively older and exhibited lower MeanSpO2 values when compared to those individuals without hyperlipidemia. No significant variations were observed in the distribution of ODI, minSpO2, or T90 between the two groups.

In Table 1, the labels “Without Dyslipidaemia (n = 560)” and “With Dyslipidaemia (n = 492)” are incorrect and should be reversed. The correct labels should be:

Without Dyslipidaemia (n = 492)

With Dyslipidaemia (n = 560

The correct Table 1 is presented below:
