自體免疫疾病與兒童族群阻塞性睡眠呼吸中止症之關聯性

// Association between autoimmune disease and obstructive sleep apnea in a pediatric population

本研究分析超過32萬名兒童，探討自體免疫疾病（AD）與阻塞性睡眠呼吸中止症（OSA）的關聯｜結果顯示患有AD的兒童罹患OSA的機率顯著提高，特別是壞死性血管病變與紅斑性狼瘡患者｜此外，AD合併OSA者接受扁桃腺切除手術較少，但術後出血風險較高，強調治療與手術決策需謹慎考量。

// This study examined the relationship between autoimmune diseases (AD) and obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) in over 320,000 pediatric patients using a large database. Children with AD had significantly higher odds of having OSA, especially those with specific ADs like necrotizing vasculopathy and lupus. OSA patients with AD were less likely to receive tonsillectomy but had a higher risk of bleeding after the surgery. The findings highlight the importance of careful management of OSA in children with AD, particularly regarding surgical decisions.
