This chapter summarizes the recent advances in the neuropathology of sudden infant death
syndrome (SIDS). In 2015, hippocampal abnormalities were described in SIDS infants …

The sudden infant death syndrome (SIDS) is the sudden death of an infant under one year of
age that is typically associated with sleep and that remains unexplained after a complete …

Abstract Genetic studies in Sudden Infant Death Syndrome (SIDS) have been motivated by
clinical, epidemiological, and/or neuropathological observations in SIDS victims, with …

Background Sudden infant death syndrome (SIDS) has been considered to be triggered by
a combination of underlying immune dysregulation and infections. The thymus is a crucial …

Background For sudden infant death syndrome (SIDS), an impaired immunocompetence
has been discussed for a long time. Cytokines and chemokines are soluble immune …

Despite the success of the campaigns to reduce the risk of sudden infant death syndrome
(SIDS), it still remains the major cause of postneonatal mortality. The incidence of SIDS is …

Sudden infant death syndrome (SIDS) is a type of death that occurs suddenly and without
any apparent explanation, affecting infants between 28 days of life and up to a year …

Two reflex mechanisms important for survival are discussed. Brain stem and cardiovascular
mechanisms that are responsible for recovery from severe hypoxia (autoresuscitation) are …

Genetic risk factors play a role in sudden unexpected infant death; either as a cause of
death, such as in cases with medium-chain acyl-coenzyme A dehydrogenase deficiency and …

Several studies have indicated that a vulnerability in the development and regulation of
brain function is involved in sudden infant death syndrome (SIDS). The aim of this study was …
