Breath sounds can reflect the physiological and pathological conditions of the lungs and airways.Due to the differences in acoustic characteristics of breath sounds between healthy children and those with different respiratory diseases,analyzing breath sounds may provide important information for the diagnosis and treatment of respiratory diseases in children.With the development of digital auscultation,children's breath sounds have gradully become a research focus.This article summarizes the recent research progress in breath sound analysis for the diagnosis and treatment of common respiratory diseases in children,offering reference for the research in related fields.

Catathrenia is an uncommon sleep disorder. Having been originally classified as a parasomnia it is now considered a sleep related breathing disorder. Polysomnography (PSG) is the gold standard for diagnosing catathrenia which demonstrates a classic pattern of a deep inhalation followed by a protracted exhalation, accompanied by groaning sounds.

Therefore, this study aimed to identify whether positing the acoustic sensor on the chest or cervical position would be least susceptible to interference from dental suction device noise, a prominent noise noted during respiratory sound monitoring during dental sedation.
Methods: This prospective cohort study was conducted with 30 students.

Background: Lung auscultation using a smartphone built-in microphone is promising for home monitoring of pediatric respiratory diseases. Our aim was to compare respiratory sounds recorded by a smartphone and a digital stethoscope by assessing the proportion of quality recordings and adventitious sounds detected by each device.
Methods: A comparative early feasibility study with children from a public school in Northern Portugal was conducted.

This report details a case of acute idiopathic velopharyngeal insufficiency in a previously healthy eight-year-old girl, presenting with sudden voice alteration and nasal regurgitation following mild respiratory symptoms. Physical examination identified unilateral velar paralysis with open rhinolalia, without additional neurological deficits. Extensive diagnostic evaluation, including nasopharyngoscopy, cerebral and cervical imaging, and infectious serologies, yielded unremarkable findings.

Objectives: To estimate the prevalence of allergic rhinitis (AR), atopic dermatitis (AD), and wheezing, and to describe their patterns of co-occurrence according to different characteristics in adolescence and early adulthood.
Methods: Cross-sectional analyses from the 15-year and 22-year follow-ups of the 1993 Pelotas (Brazil) Birth Cohort. The outcomes were assessed based on self-reported data, and the patterns of co-occurrence were determined using cluster analysis.
