However, in patients with known or suspected thyroid pathology, even minor trauma can pose a risk for delayed intrathyroidal hemorrhage.
Early identification of patients at an increased risk for delayed cerebral ischemia (DCI) and poor outcome could allow more aggressive therapy and influence better outcome.
Older adults with poor functioning preoperatively are at risk for delayed recovery and more impaired outcomes after coronary artery bypass surgery (CABS).
Talar and navicular fractures are at high risk for delayed healing and even progression to avascular necrosis and collapse due to the pattern of vascular supply, which can be disrupted with typical proximal stress fractures.
Understanding the biological mechanisms of why certain fractures are at risk for delayed healing or nonunion requires translational animal models that take advantage of transgenic and other genetic manipulation technologies.
For example, having two copies of ApoE4 (a variant of the gene encoding apolipoprotein E that also plays a role in Alzheimer's disease) seems to increase risk for delayed ischemia and a worse outcome.
Interventions to improve linkage to care should be implemented alongside routine, voluntary HIV screening, particularly in marginalized groups known to be at risk for delayed presentation to care and loss to follow-up, such as immigrants [58].
Therefore, we still leave open the possibility that beyond the role of education and literacy per se, impoverished children are at risk for delayed neurocognitive development because of compromised brain/behavior development [17], [18].
Difficulty in breast feeding was significantly associated with higher risk for delayed fine motor development.
When children were stunted they were at a higher risk for delayed fine motor development.
Male children were at higher risk for delayed gross motor development relative to female children.
