The article examines the relationship between age and obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) severity in infants under one year old who underwent polysomnography (PSG) due to sleep-related concerns. Topics discussed include age-related changes in OSA indices, the influence of comorbidities such as laryngomalacia, and variations in clinical outcomes among infants with different OSA severities.
