When snoring and obstructed breathing occur during sleep in young children if is associated with daytime learning and behaviour problems. By school-age it can be shown that these children have lower IQ than children who do not snore. We will study whether treatment of this obstructed breathing by taking out the tonsils and adeonoids in the pre-school age group can improve IQ outcomes for children.

幼儿在睡眠中打呼噜和呼吸困难时，如果与白天的学习和行为问题有关。按学龄计算，可以看出这些孩子的智商低于不打呼噜的孩子。我们将研究通过摘除学龄前儿童的扁桃体和肾上腺皮质激素来治疗这种呼吸障碍是否可以改善儿童的智商结果。
