Mask leaks contributing to apnea events?

Mask leaks contributing to apnea events?
    Recently started using OSCAR because the Airsense 10 Autoset given to me has no Bluetooth or WiFi capabilities. I don't pretend to understand the graphs, but was wondering if there is any correlation between the leaks and apnea events. At times, my current pressure of 12cmH20 (down from 14) seems to blow the mask (Dreamwear) off my face. Thanks. I hope you can see the attachment.

Large leakage triggers CA, at least for me.

Surprisingly, large leaks do not seem to affect my AHI.
I hope I'm not misreading things--always a newbee.
