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 ...
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 ...
Urine Levels of Catecholamines in Greek Children With Obstructive Sleep-Disordered Breathing
(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 ...
Interactions of Obstructive Sleep-Disordered Breathing With Recurrent Wheezing or Asthma and Their Effects on Sleep Quality
(2011)
Snoring is the most characteristic symptom of obstructive sleep-disordered breathing ( SDB) and recurrent wheezing is the most common clinical manifestation of asthma. The purpose of the present review is to outline the ...
Obesity and Persisting Sleep Apnea After Adenotonsillectomy in Greek Children
(2008)
Background: The relative importance of obesity and adenotonsillar hypertrophy in the pathogenesis of obstructive sleep-disordered breathing (SDB) in childhood is unclear. Adenotonsillectomy (AT) for SDB is not always ...
Comparison of blood pressure measurements in children with and without habitual snoring
(2005)
Higher or similar systolic and/or diastolic blood pressure has been recorded in children with sleep apnea compared to subjects with primary snoring or in those with primary snoring compared to controls. To investigate the ...
