The data are presented as median and range values. Statistical analyses were performed with Wilcoxon matched-paired test between sudden infant death syndrome (SIDS) cases and controls, P < 0.05.
NREM refers to non-rapid eye movement sleep; REM, rapid eye movement sleep; HF, high-frequency; LF, low-frequency.
