Journal ArticleDOI
Craniofacial and upper airway morphology in pediatric sleep-disordered breathing: Systematic review and meta-analysis.
Vandana Katyal,Yvonne Pamula,A. James Martin,Cathal N. Daynes,J. Declan Kennedy,Wayne Sampson +5 more
TL;DR: Evidence for a direct causal relationship between craniofacial structure and pediatric sleep-disordered breathing is unsupported by this meta-analysis, but there is strong support for reduced upper airway width in children with obstructive sleep apnea.
Journal ArticleDOI
Inconsistent sleep schedules and daytime behavioral difficulties in school-aged children.
Sarah N. Biggs,Sarah N. Biggs,Kurt Lushington,Cameron J. van den Heuvel,A. James Martin,A. James Martin,J. Declan Kennedy,J. Declan Kennedy +7 more
TL;DR: Inconsistent sleep schedules were common and, similar to short sleep duration, were associated with behavioral difficulties and further research is needed for the development of new recommendations, education and sleep health messages.
Journal ArticleDOI
Effects of birthweight and oxygen supplementation on lung function in late childhood in children of very low birth weight.
J. Declan Kennedy,J. Declan Kennedy,Lisa J. Edward,D. J. Bates,A. James Martin,Silvia Nobbs Dip,R Haslam,Andrew J McPhee,R. Staugas,Peter A. Baghurst +9 more
TL;DR: The aim of this study was to determine the importance of the contributions of birth weight, gestational age, neonatal respiratory disease, and its treatment on subsequent childhood lung function at age 11 years in a cohort of children of very low birth weight (VLBW).
Journal ArticleDOI
Differences in the Association Between Obesity and Obstructive Sleep Apnea Among Children and Adolescents
Mark Kohler,Swetlana Thormaehlen,J. Declan Kennedy,J. Declan Kennedy,Yvonne Pamula,Cameron J. van den Heuvel,Kurt Lushington,A. James Martin,A. James Martin +8 more
TL;DR: For Caucasian children, overweight and obesity should be considered a significant risk for OSAS among adolescents or from age 12 years, especially when in combination with other established risk factors, including snoring and adenotonsillar hypertrophy.
Journal ArticleDOI
Gender, socioeconomic, and ethnic differences in sleep patterns in school-aged children
Sarah N. Biggs,Sarah N. Biggs,Kurt Lushington,A. James Martin,A. James Martin,Cameron J. van den Heuvel,J. Declan Kennedy,J. Declan Kennedy +7 more
TL;DR: The results from this study suggest that in addition to biological mechanisms, sleep behaviors are culturally and socially driven and should be considered when developing recommendations for healthy sleep in children.
