Analysis of the SN Neuronal Density (Cells/mm2) in SIDS and Controls.
| SIDS | Controls | |
|---|---|---|
| SNpc | ||
| Range | 5–100 | 72–120 |
| Mean value ± SD | 36.5 ± 32.7* | 92.8 ± 15.3 |
| SNpr | ||
| Range | 1–9 | 2–10 |
| Mean value ± SD | 5.44 ± 2.43 | 5.52 ± 3.1 |
Note. SIDS = sudden infant death syndrome; SNpc = substantia nigra, pars compacta; SNpr = substantia nigra, pars reticulata; SD = standard deviation.
