Whether sleepdisordered breathing precedes or results from CMS is not known. Likewise, factors responsible for sleep-disordered breathing in CMS are not well understood. Based on our preliminary data that perinatal hypoxia increases susceptibility to excessive erythrocytosis (EE, Hb 18.3 g/dL), a preclinical phase of CMS, we sought to determine whether respiratory characteristics during wakefulness or sleep differ between EE subjects and controls and, if so, to determine the relationship of this variation with perinatal hypoxia.enHIPOXIA PERINATALDESORDENES EN EL SUEÑOMAL CRÓNICO DE MONTANAArticle
