Hence, it has become necessary to develop a useful instrument to measure possible responses to specific problematic situations in alliances. In this work, a circumplex representation of the seven response strategies (exit propensity, opportunism ...

High-energy tibial plateau fractures are difficult to manage, as they are often associated with severe soft tissue injuries (open wounds, crushing, marked swelling, bruising, blebs formation and/or compartment syndrome).
