TL;DR: Surgical treatment for the obstructive sleep apnea syndrome in school-age children did not significantly improve attention or executive function as measured by neuropsychological testing but did reduce symptoms and improve secondary outcomes of behavior, quality of life, and polysomnographic findings, thus providing evidence of beneficial effects of early adenotonsillectomy.

Journal ArticleDOI
Activity-adjusted 24-hour ambulatory blood pressure and cardiac remodeling in children with sleep disordered breathing.
Raouf S. Amin,Virend K. Somers,Keith McConnell,Paul Willging,Charles M. Myer,Marc S. Sherman,Gary L. McPhail,Ashley Morgenthal,Matthew Fenchel,Judy A. Bean,Thomas R. Kimball,Stephen R. Daniels +11 more
TL;DR: Sleep disordered breathing in children who are otherwise healthy is independently associated with an increase in morning blood pressure surge, blood pressure load, and 24-hour ambulatory blood pressure, which highlights the role of sleep disordered breathe in increasing cardiovascular morbidity.
Journal ArticleDOI
Growth Velocity Predicts Recurrence of Sleep-disordered Breathing 1 Year after Adenotonsillectomy
Raouf S. Amin,Leonard Anthony,Virend K. Somers,Matthew Fenchel,Keith McConnell,Jenny Jefferies,Paul Willging,Maninder Kalra,Stephen R. Daniels +8 more
TL;DR: Gain velocity in body mass index (BMI) defined as unit increase in BMI/year confers an independent risk for the recurrence of SDB 1 year after adenotonsillectomy, and gain velocity in BMI, obesity, and being African American provided equal amounts of predictive power.
Journal ArticleDOI
Pureed by gastrostomy tube diet improves gagging and retching in children with fundoplication.
TL;DR: In children post-fundoplication surgery, a PBGT diet may decrease gagging and retching behaviors and is an effective means of providing nutrition to children with feeding disorders.
