Salivary biomarkers of obstructive sleep apnea syndrome in children.

abstract：:Inhalation therapy for wheezy infants with either a nebulizer or a pressurized metered-dose inhaler (pMDI) through a spacer is common practice. The aim of our study was to compare aerosol delivery to wheezy infants from a nebulizer and from a pMDI via two small volume spacers. Twenty wheezy infants (aged 4-12 months) ...
