Let's look at some active comparators. So, let's compare CPAP with a dental device. You can see CPAP has the slight edge. Oral surgery versus CPAP. Not that big of a difference between those two. It looks like CPAP is better than positional therapy. It looks like OMT and CPAP are about the same with a little bit of an edge going to CPAP. Positional therapy versus a dental device. The dental device actually wins out. A CPAP is better than physical activity. Well, no, actually physical activity and CPAP are very similar. In fact, the edge may go to physical activity. Now, that's really interesting. Physical activity actually improved the sleepiness scale score. They may be doing it through a different mechanism, maybe not through the AHI. That's quite interesting. Think about exercise and its ability. Maybe working outside of that physical activity versus the mandibular advancement device. Interestingly, the mandibular advancement device seemed to work much better, at least in this meta analysis.
