apnea and Microcephaly

apnea has been researched along with Microcephaly in 5 studies

Apnea: A transient absence of spontaneous respiration.

Microcephaly: A congenital abnormality in which the CEREBRUM is underdeveloped, the fontanels close prematurely, and, as a result, the head is small. (Desk Reference for Neuroscience, 2nd ed.)
