toluene and Sleep Apnea Syndromes

toluene has been researched along with Sleep Apnea Syndromes in 2 studies

methylbenzene : Any alkylbenzene that is benzene substituted with one or more methyl groups.

Sleep Apnea Syndromes: Disorders characterized by multiple cessations of respirations during sleep that induce partial arousals and interfere with the maintenance of sleep. Sleep apnea syndromes are divided into central (see SLEEP APNEA, CENTRAL), obstructive (see SLEEP APNEA, OBSTRUCTIVE), and mixed central-obstructive types.
