Lung Function After Stereotactic Body Radiation Therapy for Early-Stage Non-Small Cell Lung Cancer, Changes and Predictive Markers

Introduction: The aim was to describe causal factors in children with postneonatal cerebral palsy (PNCP), compare clinical characteristics in children with PNCP to children with congenital CP, and compare congenital CP risk factors in children with PNCP to the general population. Patients and Methods: The Norwegian CP Registry was linked to the Medical Birth Registry for children born 1999 to 2013 (893,864 livebirths). Among 1710 children with CP, 67 (3.9%) had PNCP and 1643 congenital CP. Chi-Square tests were used to compare clinical characteristics in children with PNCP and congenital CP, and prevalence rates to compare risk factors in children with PNCP and the general population. Results: The leading causes of PNCP were cerebrovascular diseases (33%), accidents/trauma (22%) and infections (19%). More children with PNCP had spastic hemiplegic (54%) and quadriplegic/dyskinetic (31%) CP compared to congenital CP (42%; 20%, respectively) (p
