## 3 Results

Table 3: _Cont._In Table 5, DIMS > 21 was observed in 3 (7.31%) DS children and adolescents, SDB > 12 was observed in 12 (29.26%) DS children, one DS child had EDS > 19 points, one DS child scored > 7 in HDS. A total of 15 (36.58%) DS children were above the threshold for at least one factor. Overall, 3 (7.31%) DS children scored higher than 69 points and were considered to have sleep disorders. No child showed higher ADD and DSWT scores. Figure 2 shows the results of the SDSC in a percentage chart, considering: DS children and adolescents without sleep disorders and with some sleep disorders. According to the SDSC (total score = 69), it is possible to verify that 92.68% (\(n=38\)) of the DS children and adolescents are not considered to have sleep disorders. However, it is necessary to verify the percentage of DS children and adolescents who had a score above 69, confirming the sleep disorders, and 36.59% (\(n=15\)) who showed a higher score of at least one evaluated factor, suitably showing the type of sleep disorder presented. \begin{table}

Table 5: SDSC factor score. Figure 3 shows the relative percentage (%) of each sleep disturbance factor and the total score of the SDSC. It is also possible to verify that the factor that presented the highest percentage was the SDB, with 29.3% (\(n\) = 12) of the DS children and adolescents investigated. A correlation analysis was made between the results of the SDB item, age and obesity of DS children and adolescents (Figure 4A,B), using the Spearman nonparametric test. No correlations were found between the SBD and the variables analyzed (r = \(-\)0.001 and r = 0.10). Only 3 DS children and adolescents had obesity (BMI \(\geq\) 30).

DIMS—sleep initiation and maintenance disorders; SDB—sleep-disordered breathing; ADD—arousal disorders; DSWT—sleep-Wake transition disorders; EDS—excessive day-time sleepiness disorders; HS—sleep hyperhidrosis; TS—total score. The data are expressed in absolute numbers (\(n\)) and in percentage (%). Figure 2: Sleep disorder profile by SDSC (%).
