They don't, actually.
Like the "mormon" ones above, the only "pattern" they exhibit relates to the culture/beliefs/life experiences of the person having them.
So somebody from the US, raised "mainstream protestant," and middle-class, who has one will see similarities to those other people who lived in that same environment had.
While people raised in India in Hinduism and extreme poverty will have almost no similarities to the above.
"We compared the various descriptions of NDEs from a phenomenological perspective. There were similarities between particular cultures, which differed from typical western European experiences. This article concludes that although there are common themes, there are also reported differences in NDEs."
