A quantitative study was carried out of the number of lymphoreticular aggregates in standard sections of the lungs of 316 children. Of these, 128 showed no recognizable lung disease, 104 of whom presented as sudden unexpected death. The number of lymphoreticular aggregates was higher in the unexpected than in the expected child deaths. As lymphoreticular aggregates are nonspecific indicators of previous antigenic stimulation, it follows that many of the children in the unexpected death group had been subject to a greater amount of such stimulation.
对316名儿童肺部标准切片中的淋巴网状聚集物数量进行了定量研究。其中，128名儿童未表现出可识别的肺部疾病，其中104名儿童表现为意外猝死。意外死亡儿童的淋巴网状聚集物数量高于预期死亡儿童。由于淋巴网状聚集物是先前抗原刺激的非特异性指标，因此可以推断，意外死亡组中的许多儿童受到了更多此类刺激。
