This might be due to more displaced, open fractures or polytrauma - higher energy trauma- they sustained. Deciding on the treatment method, surgery may be treatment of choice in certain children with severely displaced, irreducable, fractures or polytrauma with accompanying ADHD due to the potential difficulties during follow up period.
This explorative analysis of SGK1 expression in NSCLC samples highlights the potential role of this factor in NSCLC patients' prognosis. Moreover, the higher expression in the squamous cell carcinoma subtype opens new therapeutic possibilities in this NSCLC subtype by designing specific kinase inhibitors.
