For surgical treatment of patients with obstructive sleep apnea-hypopnea syndrome, it is crucial to locate accurately the obstructive sites in the upper airway; however, noninvasive methods for locating the obstructive sites have not been well explored. Snoring, as the cardinal symptom of obstructive sleep apnea-hypopnea syndrome, should contain information that reflects the state of the upper airway. Through the classification of snores produced at four different locations, this study aimed to test the hypothesis that snores generated by various obstructive sites differ.
