Even though, an objective clinical test, such as apnea-hipopnea index, obtained during polisomnography and used to define human OSAS severity, could offer valuable information to better classify and understand BAOS.
Examinations of quantitative traits such as extent of attachment loss, probing depth and/or tooth loss that capture a continuum in disease severity might offer a more powerful approach when conducting GWAS; however, we suggest that using current diagnostic criteria for CP is a valuable first step in exploring the genetic basis of the disease.
