DOI: 10.1007/s00213-017-4815-2
Abstract: RationaleThe effects of early ethanol exposure upon neonatal respiratory plasticity have received progressive attention given a multifactorial perspective related with sudden infant death syndrome or hypoxia-associated syndromes. The present preclinical study was performed in 3–9-day-old… read more here.
