睡眠時無呼吸が脳神経障害?
Findings from a new study provide evidence that sleep apnea(睡眠時無呼吸), in which breathing becomes blocked for brief but frequent episodes(症状の発現)during the night, can cause neuronal brain injury in children. Previous reports have tied childhood sleep apnea to deficits in memory, learning, and other mental functions, but until now no studies have demonstrated neuronal injury. It is unclear whether early diagnosis and treatment can reverse the damage.
