The Cerebellum and SIDS: Disordered Breathing in a Mouse Model of Developmental Cerebellar Purkinje Cell Loss during Recovery from Hypercarbia. [PDF]
The cerebellum assists coordination of somatomotor, respiratory, and autonomic actions. Purkinje cell alterations or loss appear in sudden infant death and sudden death in epilepsy victims, possibly contributing to the fatal event. We evaluated breathing

The Sudden Infant Death Syndrome [PDF]
Recent years have seen major advances in our understanding of the sudden infant death syndrome (SIDS), including the discovery that the prone sleep position more than triples the risk of SIDS. This finding has led to a worldwide campaign advocating the supine sleep position for infants, which has been associated with a decrease of 50 to 90% in the SIDS

Sudden Infant Death Syndrome [PDF]
To the Editor.— By attempting to examine the hypothesis that abnormalities in the pattern of apneic pauses in the neonatal period could predict all, or most cases of sudden infant death syndrome (SIDS), Steinschneider et al1 may have missed a valuable opportunity to determine a small proportion of cases with more definite abnormalities ...
