Adenotonsillar Microbiome Shifts in Children With Obstructive Sleep Apnea Syndrome

The Laryngoscope, EarlyView.
This study compares the microbiomes of adenoids and tonsils in pediatric OSAS patients and healthy controls using 16S rRNA sequencing. Significant differences were found in the tonsillar microbiome of OSAS patients, with lower alpha diversity and an overrepresentation of pathogenic genera like Haemophilus and Neisseria, while adenoid microbiomes showed

Is Ankyloglossia Correlated With Pediatric Sleep Disordered Breathing? A Systematic Review

The Laryngoscope, EarlyView.
An increasing breadth of conditions and symptoms are being ascribed to ankyloglossia. As diagnosis of ankyloglossia and frequency of frenotomy exponential increase, it is important to have an understanding of the associated evidence. This systematic review summarizes the evidence for ankyloglossia's association with sleep disordered breathing in ...

Impact of Bariatric Surgery on Hypoglossal Nerve Stimulation Outcomes

The Laryngoscope, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Objective The effectiveness of hypoglossal nerve stimulation (HGNS) for residual obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) in patients with prior bariatric surgery (BS) has not been previously reported. We evaluate and compare HGNS outcomes in this unique population.
