RESUMO
Objective:To explore the pathogenesis of abnormal behavior in children with obstructive sleep apnea-hypopnea syndrome(OSAHS).Method:The behavioral problems and C-reactive protein were measured in 40 children with OSAHS and 30 children with habitual snoring who underwent overnight Polysomnography,40 cases of healthy children for the control group.Result:The ratio of abnormal behavior in OSAHS and abitual snoring children was significantly higher than that of the healthy control group,while no significant difference between the two groups.The content of C-reactive protein in OSAHS children(4.24 mg/L)was significantly higher than habitual snoring(2.76mg/L)and healthy control group(1.27mg/L);in habitual snoring children C-reactive protein was higher than in healthy control group.The content of serum C-reactive protein in OSAHS children accompanied by abnormal behavior(4.63 mg/L)was significantly higher than that without abnormal behavior(3.23 mg/L).The content of serum C-reactive protein content in habitual snoring children accompanied y abnormal behavior (3.63 mg/L)was significantly higher than that without abnormal behavior(1.76 mg/L).Conclusion:OSAHS and habitual snoring children have more behavior problems.C-reactive protein levels are higher in children with OSAHS and habitual snoring.and the levels of C-reactive protein are related to the abnormal ehavior in these children.
