Factors that correlate with sleep oxygenation in children with cystic fibrosis.

abstract：OBJECTIVE:Obstructive sleep apnea/hypopnea syndrome (OSAHS) is a common sleep problem. The aim of this study is to investigate the association between OSAHS and blood pressure (BP) in snoring children. METHODS:Snoring children were recruited from January 2009 to December 2010. Clinical history was taken accompanied by...
