An Overview of the Heterogeneity of Major Depressive Disorder: Current Knowledge and Future Prospective.

abstract：:In the recent years we have been observing an increased incidence of type 1 diabetes in children and adolescents. This leads to a more frequent acute complication of type 1 diabetes among children with hyperglycemia. The most common of these is diabetic ketoacidosis (DKA), while cerebral edema is the most dangerous. I...
