Craniofacial morphology and sleep apnea in children with obstructed upper airways: Differences between genders

, 2012
Objective: To correlate sleep apnea with craniofacial characteristics and facial patterns according to gender. Methods: In this prospective survey we studied 77 male and female children (3-12 years old) with an upper airway obstruction due to tonsil and ...

Reproducibility and predictors of the apnea hypopnea index across multiple nights [PDF]

Sleep Science
Background: Attended polysomnography (PSG) is the standard diagnostic test for sleep apnea (SA). However, due to internight variability in SA, a single night PSG may not accurately reflect the true severity of SA.

Pharyngeal Airspace Alterations after Using the Mandibular Advancement Device in the Treatment of Obstructive Sleep Apnea Syndrome

Life, 2022
Background: Mandibular Advancement Devices (MADs), inserted in non-surgical treatments for obstructive sleep apnea and hypopnea syndrome (OSAHS), are used intra-orally during the sleep period, with the aim of promoting mandibular protrusion.

The Critical Role of Fractionated Urine Glycosaminoglycans in the Evaluation of Mucopolysaccharidosis Type II in Four Unrelated Families

American Journal of Medical Genetics Part A, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Since 2015, Ann and Robert H. Lurie Children's Hospital has performed diagnostic testing for infants who screen positive for mucopolysaccharidosis type II (MPS II) on the Illinois newborn screen. Preliminary diagnostic testing includes measurement of plasma iduronate‐2‐sulfatase enzyme activity and urinary glycosaminoglycan analysis, followed ...

Complex sleep apnea syndrome

Patient Preference and Adherence, 2013
Complex sleep apnea syndrome (CompSAS) is a distinct form of sleep-disordered breathing characterized as central sleep apnea (CSA), and presents in obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) patients during initial treatment with a continuous positive airway pressure (CPAP) device.

De Novo Complex Genomic Rearrangement Spanning 2q31.1 in a Proband With Congenital Malformations: Genotype–Phenotype Correlation and Development of a CGR Detection Pipeline

American Journal of Medical Genetics Part A, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The 2q31 region is commonly associated with pathogenic alleles of the HOXD cluster leading to various clinical phenotypes related to skeletal development. We present a proband with tetralogy of Fallot and multiple congenital anomalies. Genomic variant screening including an in‐house CGR detection pipeline pairing genome sequencing (GS ...

Clinical, Behavioral and Neuroradiological Phenotype in an Italian Cohort of Patients With Xia Gibbs Syndrome: A Multicenter Cross‐Sectional Study and Systematic Literature Review

American Journal of Medical Genetics Part A, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Heterozygous variants in the AHDC1 gene are associated with Xia Gibbs Syndrome (XGS), a genetic disorder with a highly variable phenotype. Cognitive impairment, motor delay, language delay, neonatal hypotonia, and sleep apnea are considered “cardinal” signs of the disease.

Influence of the initial continuous positive airway pressure treatment on REM sleep in patients with sleep apnea syndromes

, 2023
Na temelju dosadašnjih istraživanja postavili smo hipotezu da prvotna primjena kontinuiranoga pozitivnoga tlaka zraka u dišnim putevima (CPAP) dovodi do normalizacije respiracijskih parametara i oporavka REM-a u bolesnika s apnejom u spavanju.

Obstructive sleep apnea is position dependent in young infants

, 2023
Background Obstructive sleep apnea in infants with Pierre Robin sequence is sleep-position dependent. The influence of sleep position on obstructive events is not established in other infants.
