The sentences
Most previous studies that found a significant correlation between airway characteristics and skeletal patterns had a small sample size and did not take into account the effect of confounders, such as weight, size of the face, smoking status, neck circumference, respiratory status, and head posture.[ 3 , 5 , 7 , 9 , 11 , 15 , 17 , 19 , 31 , 32 , 33 , 34 , 38 ] Thus, the significance of the correlations that were found to be weakly significant in such studies must be tested in clinical conditions.
