  • Application of body shape indicators in the evaluation of obstructive sleep apnea hypopnea syndrome in minors

    Obstructive sleep apnea hypopnea syndrome (OSAHS) can affect the growth and development of minors. Although the gold standard for OSAHS diagnosis is an overnight polysomnography, its clinical application is limited due to the high requirements for equipment and environmental conditions. Body shape indicators can reflect the accumulation of fat in specific parts of the body. In recent years, body shape indicators (body mass index, neck circumference, waist circumference, waist to hip ratio, waist to height ratio, neck circumference to height ratio) have been increasingly used in the evaluation of minor OSAHS. This article will review the application of the above body shape indicators in the evaluation of minor OSAHS, aiming to provide a basis for better use of these indicators in the diagnosis and treatment of minor OSAHS.
