OBJECTIVE To explore the characteristics of auditory brainstem response(ABR) in severe obstructive sleep apnea-hypopnea syndrome. METHODS ABR was recorded in 37 severe OSAHS patients (OSAHS group) and 20 controls. RESULTS (1) In the OSAHS group, the latency values of waves I, III and V were (1.67+/-0.20) ms, (3.87+/-0.31) ms, (5.70+/-0.31) ms respectively. In the control group, the latency values of waves I, III and V were (1.60+/-0.11) ms, (3.81+/-0.23) ms, (5.61+/-0.23) ms respectively. A statistically significant prolongation was found in the latency values of waves I in OSAHS group compared to control group (P < 0.05). (2) When comparing to the control group, the transmission time between waves III and V was found to be prolonged and waves I and III to be shortened in the OSAHS group. Furthermore, the change was considered statistically significant (P <0.05). (3) A statistically significant elevation was found in response threshold of wave V when comparing to the control group (P < 0.05). CONCLUSIONS The pathological sleepiness seen in OSAHS patients may cause ABR abnormalities, as a consequence of the chronic hypoxic and hypercapnic status occurring in the brain-stem and cochlear.

D016022 Case-Control Studies Comparisons that start with the identification of persons with the disease or outcome of interest and a control (comparison, referent) group without the disease or outcome of interest. The relationship of an attribute is examined by comparing both groups with regard to the frequency or levels of outcome over time.

D020181 Sleep Apnea, Obstructive A disorder characterized by recurrent apneas during sleep despite persistent respiratory efforts. It is due to upper airway obstruction. The respiratory pauses may induce HYPERCAPNIA or HYPOXIA. Cardiac arrhythmias and elevation of systemic and pulmonary arterial pressures may occur. Frequent partial arousals occur throughout sleep, resulting in relative SLEEP DEPRIVATION and daytime tiredness. Associated conditions include OBESITY; ACROMEGALY; MYXEDEMA; micrognathia; MYOTONIC DYSTROPHY; adenotonsilar dystrophy; and NEUROMUSCULAR DISEASES.
