Cognitive and Behavioral Outcomes of Snoring Among Adolescents.

ABSTRACT:

Importance

Snoring is central to sleep-disordered breathing (SDB), which arises from nocturnal upper airway resistance. Habitual snoring is associated with cognitive and behavioral problems in young children, but less is known about these associations in adolescents.

Objective

To assess the longitudinal associations of snoring with cognition and problem behaviors among adolescents.

Design, setting, and participants

This cohort study was a secondary analysis of the Adolescent Brain Cognitive Development (ABCD) Study dataset (release 5.0), which enrolled 11 875 children and a parent or caregiver from June 1, 2016, to October 15, 2018, at 21 participating US research institutions and followed-up for 5 years. The analysis was performed between December 2023 and April 2024
