The pattern of gastric cancer in the Western world is changing, with an increased proportion tumours upper stomach. aim this study was to investigate changes clinicopathological features and survival patients resected at a single institution, area high incidence Far East.Clinical pathological findings were compared who underwent gastrectomy Seoul National University Hospital during four consecutive periods (1986-1990, 1991-1995, 1996-2000 2001-2006).There 12 026 patients. mean age from 53·4...
To determine the immediate and long-term therapeutic efficacies of Gufoni head-shaking maneuvers in apogeotropic type benign paroxysmal positional vertigo involving horizontal semicircular canal (HC-BPPV), a randomized, prospective, sham-controlled study was conducted.In 10 nationwide dizziness clinics Korea, 157 consecutive patients (95 women, age range: 18-89 years, mean ± SD = 59.9 13.6) with HC-BPPV were randomized to (n 52), 54), or sham maneuver 51). For maneuver, underwent...
Dorsal root stimulation, carried out during operation in 80 spastic cerebral palsy patients and one quadriplegic patient, allowed a study of abnormal monosynaptic polysynaptic reflexes. Frequency-related depression the reflex was not present; increased activity through non-suppressed pathways shown.
<h3>Objectives:</h3> To determine the immediate and long-term therapeutic efficacies of barbecue rotation Gufoni maneuvers, a randomized, prospective, sham-controlled study was conducted in patients with geotropic type benign paroxysmal positional vertigo involving horizontal semicircular canal (HC-BPPV). <h3>Methods:</h3> In 10 nationwide dizziness clinics Korea, 170 consecutive (107 women, age range 11−97 years, mean ± SD 61 15 median = years) HC-BPPV were randomly assigned to (n 56), 64),...
No previous studies have investigated the relationship between various anti-ganglioside antibodies and clinical characteristics of Guillain-Barré syndrome (GBS) in Korea. The aim this study was to determine prevalence types Korean GBS patients, identify their significance. Serum collected from patients during acute phase at 20 university-based hospitals laboratory findings were reviewed compared with detected antibody. Among 119 60 positive for immunoglobulin G (IgG) or M against any type...
Abstract Episodic ataxia (EA) is a rare neurological condition characterized by recurrent spells of truncal and incoordination. Five genes ( KCNA1 , CACNA1A CACNB4 SLC1A3 UBR4 ) have been linked to EA. Despite extensive efforts genetically diagnose EA, many patients remain still undiagnosed. Whole-exome sequencing was carried out in 39 Korean with EA identify pathogenic mutations the five known genes. We also evaluated 40 candidate that cause as secondary phenotype or cerebellar ataxia....
<h3>Objective</h3> To assess the effect of vitamin D and calcium supplementation in preventing recurrences benign paroxysmal positional vertigo (BPPV). <h3>Methods</h3> We performed an investigator-initiated, blinded-outcome assessor, parallel, multicenter, randomized controlled trial 8 hospitals between December 2013 May 2017. Patients with confirmed BPPV were randomly assigned to intervention (n = 518) or observation 532) group after successful treatment canalith repositioning maneuvers....
Background Benign paroxysmal positional vertigo (BPPV) is the most common peripheral vestibular disorder, and its prevalence substantial. While primary BPPV has been well studied, understanding of secondary still limited. Objective To investigate clinical characteristics in a national multicenter retrospective analysis. Methods The study involved analysis medical records from 17 institutions across South Korea, between January June 2022. We evaluated features, presumed etiologies,...
To explore the patterns and mechanisms of jerky seesaw nystagmus in internuclear ophthalmoplegia (INO), we analyzed 33 patients with dissociated torsional-vertical INO. In 11 (33%) patients, was ipsiversive torsional both eyes vertical components opposite directions. contrast, 18 (55%) showed a larger upbeat component contralesional eye. Four (12%) exhibited greater downbeat ipsilesional At least one contraversive ocular tilt reaction associated most (30/33, 91%). The INO suggest disruption...
Background and Purpose This study aimed to determine the patterns etiologies of acquired ocular motor nerve palsy (OMNP) diagnosed in neurology clinics.We also investigated clinical features that may predict causes other than microvascular ischemia isolated OMNP. MethodsWe performed a prospective multicenter had recruited 298 patients with OMNP from clinics referral-based 9 university hospitals Korea.We finally selected 235 divided them into older (age ≥50 years, n=188) younger <50 n=47)...
<h3>Background:</h3> Fisher syndrome (FS) is characterised by a triad of ophthalmoplegia, ataxia and areflexia. The lesion sites responsible for ophthalmoplegia in FS require further exploration. aim this study was to determine the involvement central nervous system using <sup>18</sup>F-fluorodeoxyglucose-positron emission tomography (FDG-PET). <h3>Methods:</h3> Cerebral glucose metabolism 10 patients with compared that 60 age sex matched normal controls PET. For individual analyses, 15 were...
Objectives: We describe a case of multiple sclerosis presenting with sequential bilateral hearing loss. Methods: A 46-year-old woman underwent series audiological and neurologic evaluations for losses that occurred 6 months apart. Results: Initially, the patient suffered from sudden left loss, magnetic resonance imaging documented an enhancing lesion in middle cerebellar peduncle. Six later, another episode vertigo, right facial palsy developed. Magnetic disclosed new Conclusions: Sequential...
