The 4/1000 was quoted in Cunningham and Jellife (whom I briefly worked with
at UCLA). I believe it originates from rogan's study "Cancer from PCBs in
breastmilk? A risk benefit Analysis." Pediatr Res 25:105A, 1989.
The 1/1000 SIDS reduction is from Damus, K, Pakter, J Krongard E et al.
"Postnatal medical and epidemiologic risk factors for the sudden infant
death syndrome." in Harper RM and Hoffman (eds). SUDDEN INFANT DEATH
SYNDROME. NY: PMA Pub, 1988. pp 187-201.
