Sleep disordered breathing (SDB) in typically developing (TD) children is associated with adverse cardiovascular effects. As children with Down syndrome (DS) are at increased risk for SDB, we aimed to compare the cardiovascular effects of SDB in children with DS to those of TD children with ...
Children with Down syndrome (DS) are at increased risk of sleep-disordered breathing (SDB). We investigated sleep spindle activity, as a marker of sleep quality, and its relationship with daytime functioning in children with DS compared to typically developing (TD) children. Methods Children with...
STUDY OBJECTIVES: Sleep disordered breathing (SDB) occurs at an increased incidence in children with Down Syndrome (DS) compared to the general pediatric population. We hypothesized that, compared with typically developing (TD) children with SDB, children with DS have a reduced cardiovascular response...
according to the Global Down Syndrome Foundation. The CDC estimated there were around250,700 children, teens, and adults living with Down syndrome in the U.S. in 2008. It also said 1 in every 700 babies in the U.S. are born with Down syndrome. This makes it the most commonchromosomalc...

Down syndrome and sleep apnea--a therapeutic challenge. This case report describes 3 patients with Down syndrome and obstructive breathing problems, ages: 5 months, 15 months, and 22 years. The youngest one had ... E Hultcrantz - 《Int J Pediatr Otorhinolaryngol》 被引量: 30发表: 1991年 ...
OBJECTIVE: The study reports on a 33-year-old Caucasian female with Down syndrome and narcolepsy-like symptoms. METHOD: After medical and genetic screening, docturnal polysomnography followed by a Multiple Sleep Latency Test and HLA typing were performed. The patient was medication free and reported...
“Parents of children with Down syndrome should be on the lookout for sleep problems at an early age," said Tooley, also is a student with the UA Undergraduate Biology Research Program, UBRP, and became involved in the lab through the program. ...
A high prevalence of obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) has been reported in Down syndrome (DS) owing to the coexistence of multiple predisposing factors related to its genetic abnormality, posing a challenge for the management of OSA. We hypothesized that DS mice recapitulate craniofacial abnormalities ...
A 12-year-old girl is presented with Down's syndrome and lingual tonsillitis causing sleep apnoea. In order to overcome her sleep apnoea she adopted a functional sleeping posture. The sleep apnoea was successfully treated by a single staged lingual tonsillectomy without preliminary tracheostomy. A ...
