"Episodic apnea leading to asphyxia is a relatively common disorder of young children."8.77Sleep apnea in infancy and childhood. ( Thach, BT, 1985)
"In competitive apnea divers, the nutritional demands may be essentially different from those of, for example, endurance athletes, where energy resources need to be maximised for successful performance."7.80Fasting improves static apnea performance in elite divers without enhanced risk of syncope. ( Lodin-Sundström, A; Schagatay, E, 2014)
"Apnea divers increase intrathoracic pressure voluntarily by taking a deep breath followed by glossopharyngeal insufflation."7.76Glossopharyngeal insufflation induces cardioinhibitory syncope in apnea divers.

"A young man had two dangerous episodes of transient loss of consciousness during apnea diving in a swimming pool."3.70Valsalva-induced syncope during apnea diving. ( Berlit, P; Bünger, B; Diehl, RR; Linden, D; Schäfer, M, 2000)

( Gastaut, H; Rufo, M; Zifkin, B, 1987)
"Sixteen infants, ages 6 weeks to 23 months, were evaluated because of syncopal attacks (n = 6), apneic episodes (n = 3), or a combination of syncope, apnea, or "convulsions" (n = 7)."3.67Symptomatic sinus bradycardia in infants with structurally normal hearts. ( Appelbaum, A; Ludomirsky, A; Rein, AJ; Simcha, A; Tamir, I; Uretzky, G, 1985)

"Seizures and epilepsy are a common problem in childhood."2.43Fits, faints and funny turns in children. ( Mackay, M, 2005)

"Twenty-six (30."1.36Long-term prognosis for children with breath-holding spells. ( Knudsen, FU; Mathiasen, R; Olsen, AL; Rasmussen, NH, 2010)
"Syncopes were predominantly reflex asystolic (RAS), prolonged expiratory apnoea (cyanotic breath-holding spells), or of mixed or uncertain origin; there was one each of ear piercing and hair grooming vasovagal syncope and one of compulsive Valsalva."1.33Anoxic-epileptic seizures: observational study of epileptic seizures induced by syncopes. ( Horrocks, IA; Nechay, A; Stephenson, JB; Zuberi, SM, 2005)
"Familial rectal pain is a very rare entity that must always be considered as a possible aetiology of any life-threatening event in an infant because of the availability of a very effective treatment."1.33Familial rectal pain: a familial autonomic disorder as a cause of paroxysmal attacks in the newborn baby. ( Arbuès, AS; Bednarek, N; Morville, P; Motte, J; Plouin, P; Sabouraud, P, 2005)
