Adenotonsillar Microbiome Shifts in Children With Obstructive Sleep Apnea Syndrome
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
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 ...

Analysis of an Observational Versus Surgical Approach for Pediatric Post‐Tonsillectomy Hemorrhage
This study compares outcomes of observational versus surgical management of pediatric post‐tonsillectomy hemorrhage. We found that observational management was safe and avoided unnecessary procedures in selected cases. These results support tailoring intervention to exam findings to optimize patient care.
