A feeling of well-being accompanied by a period of prosperity and birthweight in Chile: a possible link?

abstract：:Although race and preterm delivery are known to be associated with sudden infant death syndrome (SIDS), the relationships between age at death from SIDS and these factors have not been well described. To examine these relationships, we used linked infant birth and death records for the cohort of 1,204,375 White and 28...
