متن کاملHeart rates of breast-fed and formula-fed infants.
Heart rates of 46 breast-fed and formula-fed infants were monitored continuously for approximately 18 h at 1 or 4 months of age. Heart rate differed significantly by age (1 month greater than 4 months; p less than 0.001) and feeding mode (breast-fed less than formula-fed; p less than 0.001). Approximately 58% of the variability in heart rate could be attributed to feeding mode, sex, and age. He...

متن کاملDifferences in subcutaneous fat in breast- and formula-fed infants.
During the first 6 weeks of life, 87 breast-fed infants had a significantly greater increase in skinfold thickness than 173 infants fed only with artificial milk formulae. The two groups were similar in respect of racial origin, gestational age, birthweight, and weight gain in the first 6 weeks of life. These findings show that formula-fed infants have a different distribution of body fat from ...

Arousal from sleep is believed to be an important survival mechanism that may be impaired in victims of SIDS. Previously it has been shown that arousability is impaired by the major risk factors for SIDS such as prone sleeping and maternal smoking. AIMS To establ...
