The aims of this study were to (1) compare PS counts between cases of sudden infant death syndrome (SIDS) and a control group comprised of infants whose deaths were attributed to accidental or inflicted suffocation, (2) compare clinical variables in SIDS and control suffocation cases, and (3) review individual cases irrespective of the cause and manner of death with an average PS count greater than 200 per 20 high-power fields (hpf) per lung lobe. Retrospective assessment of siderophages in available iron-stained lung sections was undertaken in 91 SIDS cases and 29 cases of death due to suffocation (27 accidents and 2 homicides) from the San Diego SIDS and Sudden Unexplained Death in Childhood (SUDC) Research Project (SDSSRP) database. Neither the means of the log-transformed PS counts nor the medians of the raw PS counts were significantly different between the SIDS and control suffocation groups. The distributions of the PS data were different, however\u2014the range was wider in the SIDS group. Only 6% of each group had a history of prior apparent life-threatening events. Approximately three fourths of the families from both groups had no prior referral to Child Protective Services. The number of PS varies widely in cases of sudden infant death caused by SIDS and accidental or inflicted suffocation and cannot be used as an independent variable to ascertain past attempts at suffocation.<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.2350\/08-05-0088.1","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2006,7,12]],"date-time":"2006-07-12T17:06:41Z","timestamp":1152724001000},"page":"103-114","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":18,"title":["Pulmonary Intra-Alveolar Siderophages in SIDS and Suffocation: A San Diego SIDS\/SUDC Research Project Report"],"prefix":"10.1177","volume":"9","author":[{"given":"Henry F.","family":"Krous","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Pathology, Children's Hospital and Health Center, 3020 Children's Way, MC5007, San Diego, CA 92123, USA"},{"name":"Department of Pathology, University of California, San Diego, School of Medicine, La Jolla, CA 92093, USA"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Christopher","family":"Wixom","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Pathology, Children's Hospital and Health Center, 3020 Children's Way, MC5007, San Diego, CA 92123, USA"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Amy E.","family":"Chadwick","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Pathology, Children's Hospital and Health Center, 3020 Children's Way, MC5007, San Diego, CA 92123, USA"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Elisabeth A.","family":"Haas","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Pathology, Children's Hospital and Health Center, 3020 Children's Way, MC5007, San Diego, CA 92123, USA"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Patricia D.","family":"Silva","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Pathology, Children's Hospital and Health Center, 3020 Children's Way, MC5007, San Diego, CA 92123, USA"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Christina","family":"Stanley","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Office of the Medical Examiner, County of San Diego, San Diego, CA 92123, USA"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]}],"member":"179","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2006,3,1]]},"reference":[{"key":"bibr1-08-05-0088.1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1542\/peds.114.1.234"},{"key":"bibr2-08-05-0088.1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1542\/peds.109.4.661"},{"key":"bibr3-08-05-0088.1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1007\/s00414-004-0458-z"},{"key":"bibr4-08-05-0088.1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1542\/peds.100.5.735"},{"key":"bibr5-08-05-0088.1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1097\/00000433-200112000-00003"},{"key":"bibr6-08-05-0088.1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1080\/00313029700169554"},{"key":"bibr7-08-05-0088.1","first-page":"394","volume":"2","author":"Potter S","year":"1999","journal-title":"Pediatr Dev Pathol"},{"key":"bibr8-08-05-0088.1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1136\/jcp.52.8.581"},{"key":"bibr9-08-05-0088.1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1136\/adc.85.2.116"},{"key":"bibr10-08-05-0088.1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1097\/00000433-200012000-00004"},{"key":"bibr11-08-05-0088.1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1097\/00000433-200106000-00016"},{"key":"bibr12-08-05-0088.1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1097\/00000433-200212000-00012"},{"key":"bibr13-08-05-0088.1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1097\/00000433-200003000-00006"},{"key":"bibr14-08-05-0088.1","doi-asserted-by":"crossref","unstructured":"Krous HF, Haas EA, Manning JM, Child Protective Services referrals in cases of sudden infant death: a 10-year population-based analysis in San Diego County, California.
