Congestion from a cold or allergies can also constrict airways, leading to snoring. Untreated sleep apnea, characterized by collapsed airways during sleep, poses serious health risks including heart disease, Type 2 diabetes, and certain cancers.

The prefrontal cortex is involved in deciding what to say, while the limbic system processes emotional clues from the other participant, influencing emotion-signalling responses.
