Wiki Entries or Threads on Causes of Sleep Apnea?

Wiki Entries or Threads on Causes of Sleep Apnea?
I have not yet found wiki entries or threads on causes of sleep apnea, or what lifestyle, health, and genetic factors help or hinder.

The has to be much more to this than heart failure, obesity, unfortunate gene expression, or allergies.

Could someone post a link or two for me?

Thanks very much.

Anyone else caring for very elderly loved ones?

Best to ya. We can help with questions as needed. Feel free to ask. I'll be getting my ResMed Astral sometime this year it seems. I have helped others with Central Apnea and things like that. Others are guru class at OSCAR and most other Apnea issues.
