Nonlinear aspects of the EEG during sleep in children [PDF]
Proc. SPIE: Fluctuations and Noise in Biological, Biophysical, and
Biomedical Systems, Austin, Texas, USA, May 24-26, 2005, vol. 5841, pp. 40-48, 2005 Electroencephalograph (EEG) analysis enables the neuronal behavior of a section of the brain to be examined. If the behavior is nonlinear then nonlinear tools can be used to glean information on brain behavior, and aid in the diagnosis of sleep abnormalities such as obstructive sleep apnea syndrome (OSAS).

SomnNET: An SpO2 Based Deep Learning Network for Sleep Apnea Detection in Smartwatches [PDF]
, 2021 The abnormal pause or rate reduction in breathing is known as the sleep-apnea hypopnea syndrome and affects the quality of sleep of an individual. A novel method for the detection of sleep apnea events (pause in breathing) from peripheral oxygen saturation (SpO2) signals obtained from wearable devices is discussed in this paper.

Screening of Obstructive Sleep Apnea with Empirical Mode Decomposition of Pulse Oximetry [PDF]
, 2014 Detection of desaturations on the pulse oximetry signal is of great importance for the diagnosis of sleep apneas. Using the counting of desaturations, an index can be built to help in the diagnosis of severe cases of obstructive sleep apnea-hypopnea syndrome.

Sleep disordered breathing in Noonan syndrome: a rare case report
Journal of Pediatric and Neonatal Individualized Medicine, 2018 We report the case of a child with Noonan syndrome affected by hypertrophic cardiomyopathy and severe obstructive sleep apnea syndrome. The patient was born at 35 weeks gestational age (birth weight 3,340 g) and required mechanical ventilation.

Clinically important age-related differences in sleep related disordered breathing in infants and children with Prader-Willi Syndrome. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2014 BACKGROUND: Sleep related disordered breathing (SDB) in pediatric Prader-Willi Syndrome is gaining increased attention due to the possible association of growth hormone therapy, SDB and sudden death.

A Snoring Sound Dataset for Body Position Recognition: Collection, Annotation, and Analysis [PDF]
arXiv, 2023 Obstructive Sleep Apnea-Hypopnea Syndrome (OSAHS) is a chronic breathing disorder caused by a blockage in the upper airways. Snoring is a prominent symptom of OSAHS, and previous studies have attempted to identify the obstruction site of the upper airways by snoring sounds.

Cord-blood vitamin D level and night sleep duration in preschoolers in the EDEN mother-child birth cohort [PDF]
Sleep Medicine, Elsevier, 2019, 53, pp.70-74, 2019 Objective: 25-hydroxyvitamin D (25OHD) deficiency has been associated with sleep disorders in adults. Only three cross-sectional studies were performed in children and showed an association between 25OHD deficiency and both obstructive sleep apnea syndrome and primary snoring.

A 1D-CNN Based Deep Learning Technique for Sleep Apnea Detection in IoT Sensors [PDF]
, 2021 Internet of Things (IoT) enabled wearable sensors for health monitoring are widely used to reduce the cost of personal healthcare and improve quality of life. The sleep apnea-hypopnea syndrome, characterized by the abnormal reduction or pause in breathing, greatly affects the quality of sleep of an individual.

Obstructive Sleep Apnea in a Patient with CHARGE Syndrome
Case Reports in Otolaryngology, 2012 CHARGE syndrome is a genetic disorder characterized by choanal atresia, coloboma of the eye, and ear and cranial nerve abnormalities. We report a child with CHARGE syndrome and obstructive sleep apnea.

Noncontact Detection of Sleep Apnea Using Radar and Expectation-Maximization Algorithm [PDF]
arXiv, 2023 Sleep apnea syndrome requires early diagnosis because this syndrome can lead to a variety of health problems. If sleep apnea events can be detected in a noncontact manner using radar, we can then avoid the discomfort caused by the contact-type sensors that are used in conventional polysomnography.
