Adiposity in relation to age as predictor of severity of sleep apnea in children with snoring
(2008)
Correlation between obesity and obstructive sleep apnea has been documented in both adults and children. This investigation evaluated importance of body mass index (BMI) in relation to age as predictor of severity of ...
Cysteinyl leukotriene receptors are expressed by tonsillar T cells of children with obstructive sleep apnea
(2008)
Background: Increased expression of cysteinyl leukotriene receptors (cysteinyl leukotriene receptor-1 [LT1-R]; cysteinyl leukotriene receptor-2 [LT2-R]) has been detected in adenotonsillar tissue from children with ...
Nasal corticosteroids for children with snoring
(2004)
Nasal corticosteroids improve polysomnography indices but not symptoms in children with mild to moderate sleep-disordered breathing. We hypothesized that administration of nasal corticosteroids for 4 weeks to snoring ...
Overnight change in brain natriuretic peptide levels in children with sleep-disordered breathing
(2006)
Study objectives: Obstructive sleep-disordered breathing is accompanied by episodic increases in left ventricle afterload due to large negative swings in intrathoracic pressure and repetitive surges in arterial pressure. ...
Obstructive steep-disordered breathing and plasma levels of vascular endothelial growth factor in children
(2006)
Vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) may be one of the pathophysiologic links in the association between obstructive steep apnea-hypopnea and cardiovascular disease. Morning serum VEGF levels are increased in children ...
Obstructive sleep-disordered breathing and fasting insulin levels in nonobese children
(2005)
A positive correlation of severity of sleep-disordered breathing with morning fasting insulin levels, which is independent of obesity, was reported in adults and obese children. We hypothesized that both severity of ...
Morning levels of C-reactive protein in children with obstructive sleep-disordered breathing
(2005)
Obstructive sleep-disordered breathing is associated with cardiovascular disease in adults, and elevated C-reactive protein (CRIP) has been proposed as a link between the two disorders. We hypothesized that children with ...
Anti-inflammatory treatment for recurrent wheezing in the first five years of life
(2003)
Medications identified for the treatment of recurrent wheezing in preschool children by the Expert Panel Report of the NHLBI Guidelines for the Diagnosis and Management of Asthma include inhaled corticosteroids, chromones, ...

(2009)
Introduction: Adults with obstructive sleep apnea have increased sympathetic activity It was hypothesized that in children with symptoms of obstructive sleep-disordered breathing (SDB), morning urine levels of catecholamines ...
Spirometric values in Gypsy (Roma) children
(2008)
Values of spirometry indices vary among subjects of similar age, gender and somatometrics but of different ethnic origins. Low socioeconomic status in childhood is inversely related to lung growth. The aim of this investigation ...
