These events have been putatively assigned to the sleeping state and suspected to involve airway obstruction. The current study in the Journal (Nosetti et al., 2021, https://doi.org/10.7363/100207) identifies laryngomalacia and gastroesophageal reflux as being frequently associated with BRUE. The potential implications of such associations are discussed. |
