Table 6.

Tyrosine (Tyr) comparisons by diagnosis, adjusting for post-conceptional age (PCA) and postmortem interval (PMI).

TYR
Adjusted Mean (Standard Error) P-value of Pair-wise Comparisons between Groups of Interest1
SIDS cases 224.0 (11.2) SIDS vs. AC (0.902)
SIDS vs. CC (1.000)
SIDS vs. AA (0.997)
SIDS vs. RSIDS (1.000)
SIDS vs. UND (0.943)
AC vs. CC (1.000)
AC vs. AA (0.859)
Acute Controls (AC) 254.2 (26.8)
Chronic Controls (CC) 248.0 (81.7)
Acute Asphyxia (AA) 208.6 (29.1)
Resuscitated SIDS (RSIDS) 211.3 (36.6)
Undetermined cases(UND) 198.7 (25.4)

Legend: A Tukey-Kramer adjustment was used to account for the multiple comparisons. The p-values are presented in the brackets. There was no difference in Tyr levels between SIDS and non-SIDS (AC, CC, and AA groups combined) (p-value=0.966). Abbreviation: vs., versus.
