Adenotonsillectomy for Treatment of Mild Sleep-Disordered Breathing in Children
In 2016, enrollment began for the National Institutes of Health –sponsored Pediatric Adenotonsillectomy Trial for Snoring (PATS) to study children with mild obstructive sleep-disordered breathing (SDB). PATS is a well-designed and well-executed multicenter, single-blind, randomized trial of 459 children. Participants were randomized to early adenotonsillectomy (AT) or watchful waiting with supportive care. In December 2023, JAMA published the PATS results. The authors found no objective differences in executive function or attention at 12 months. However, the secondary outcomes of quality of life, symptoms, behavior, and...

Adenotonsillectomy or Watchful Waiting for Pediatric Sleep-Disordered Breathing
Habitual snoring and sleep-disordered breathing (SDB) are remarkably common conditions in children. Poor sleep has a significant effect on the neurobehavior and quality of life (QOL) of the child and therefore on the parent-child dyad, which exceeds the effect of a prevalent and treatable disease. When surgery is considered as treatment, the surgeon and family balance the potential benefit to the child, associated morbidity, related financial burden, and the cost-effectiveness of surgery compared with medical management or watchful waiting. When there is a choice, the collaborative process of shared decision-making between...

Self-reported sleep status and influencing factors: a web-based national cross-sectional survey in China
CONCLUSIONS: The national survey provided a sleep profile of the Chinese population. Both socio-economic status and personal sleep hygiene habits had an impact on 'Good sleep'.PMID:38048387 | DOI:10.1080/07853890.2023.2287706 (Source: Annals of Medicine)

Causal association of gastroesophageal reflux disease with obstructive sleep apnea and sleep-related phenotypes: a bidirectional two-sample Mendelian randomization study
ConclusionGenetic susceptibility to GERD can elevate the likelihood of experiencing insomnia, snoring, and OSA, in addition to diminishing sleep duration. Conversely, a reverse MR analysis indicates that ameliorating any one of insomnia, snoring, or OSA can mitigate the risk of developing GERD. (Source: Frontiers in Neurology)

Development and Validation of a Novel Model for Predicting Coronary Heart Disease in Snoring Hypertensive Patients with Hyperhomocysteinemia
Int Heart J. 2023 Nov 14. doi: 10.1536/ihj.23-384. Online ahead of print.ABSTRACTHypertensive patients with snoring and elevated plasma homocysteine levels are common. When these factors are combined, the risk of coronary heart disease (CHD) is high. Herein, we developed and validated an easy-to-use nomogram to predict high-risk CHD in snoring hypertensive patients with elevated plasma homocysteine.Snoring patients (n = 1,962) with hyperhomocysteinemia and hypertension were divided into training (n = 1,373, 70%) and validation (n = 589, 30%) sets. We extracted CHD predictors using multivariate Cox regression analysis, then...
