The sudden infant death syndrome gene: does it exist?

Pediatrics - 1 Oct 2004

Opdal Siri H, Rognum Torleiv O

Abstract excerpt

BACKGROUND: Sudden infant death syndrome (SIDS) is in a difficult position between the legal and medical systems. In the United Kingdom, prosecutors have for years applied the simple rule that 1 unexpected death in a family is a tragedy, 2 are suspicious, and 3 are murder. However, it seems that the pendulum has now swung to the opposite extreme; mutations or polymorphisms with unclear biological significance are...
