Abstract The identification of cancer stem cells (CSCs) represents an important milestone in the understanding chemodrug resistance and recurrence. More specifically, some studies have suggested that potential metastasis-initiating (MICs) might be present within small CSC populations. targeting eradication these a strategy for significantly improving clinical outcomes. A number dysregulation Wnt/β-catenin signaling occurs human breast cancer. Consistent with findings, our previous data shown...
The outcome after living donor renal transplantation is superior to that for deceased transplantation, but the results are not uniformly successful. factors responsible variable have been well defined.UK Transplant Registry data were analyzed determine outcomes of 3142 first adult kidney transplants from donors (71% genetically related and 29% unrelated) performed between 2000 2007 inclusive. Kaplan-Meier survival estimates determined, might be associated with graft patient using Cox...
The healthy adherer effect is a phenomenon in which patients who adhere to medical therapies tend pursue health-seeking behaviors. Although the supposed affect health outcomes with coronary artery disease, evaluation of its presence and extent not easy. This study aimed assess relationship between medication adherence lifestyle modifications health-related quality life among post-acute myocardial infarction (AMI) patients. A cross-sectional was conducted 417 post-AMI underwent percutaneous...
This study was conducted to measure the level of health-related quality life (HRQOL) and reveal association self-efficacy treatment satisfaction with it in Korean dialysis patients. The subjects were 237 patients receiving either hemodialysis (HD) or peritoneal (PD) from two university hospitals, February June 2010. We investigated HRQOL using version Kidney Disease Quality Life Short Form 36 (KDQOL-36), by self-administrative questionnaire their dialysis-related variables reviewing clinical...
This study attempted to calculate and investigate the incidence of hospitalized acute myocardial infarction (AMI) stroke in Korea. Using National Health Insurance claim data, we investigated patients whose main diagnostic codes included AMI or during 2006 2010. As a result, found out that number had decreased since amounted 15,893 2010; those with 73,501 The age-standardized rate AMI, after adjustment for readmission, was 41.6 cases per 100,000-population 2006, 29.4 2010 (for trend P <...
Hesperidin, a natural flavonoid abundantly present in Citrus is known for its anti-cancer, anti-oxidant and anti-inflammatory properties. In this study we examined the effect of hesperidin on HepG2 cells. cells treated with various concentration undergo distinct type programed cell death. Cytoplasmic vacuolization, mitochondria endoplasmic reticulum swelling uncondensed chromatin were observed DNA electrophoresis show lack fragmentation western blot analysis demonstrates caspase activation...
Abstract Nanofibrous scaffolds have been assessed as one of many promising tissue engineering to be utilized for wound‐healing applications. Previously, we reported multi‐functionalized electrospun nanofibrous blended with mussel adhesive protein (MAP) and polycaprolactone (PCL), which provide durable mechanical strength, cell‐friendly environments, a substantial ability capture diverse bioactive molecules without any surface modifications. In the present work, applied mats MAP PCL in vivo...
Abstract The Dementias Platform UK Data Portal is a data repository facilitating access to for 3 370 929 individuals in 42 cohorts. an end-to-end management solution providing secure, fully auditable, remote environment the analysis of cohort data. All projects utilising are by default collaborations with research teams generating uses Secure eResearch infrastructure provide three core utilities: discovery, access, and analysis. These delivered using 7 layered architecture comprising:...
Prompt treatment affects prognosis and survival after acute myocardial infarction (AMI) onset. This study evaluated the awareness of early symptoms AMI knowledge appropriate responses on symptom occurrence, along with related factors.Participants' to onset were investigated using a random digit dialing survey. We included 9600 residents 16 metropolitan cities provinces in Korea.The proportions respondents who aware ranged from 32.9% (arm or shoulder pain) 79.1% (chest pain discomfort). Of...
Objective: Recently, workers' mental health has become important focus in the field of occupational management.Depression is a psychiatric illness with high prevalence.The association between job stress and depressive symptoms been demonstrated many studies.Recently, studies about sleep quality have reported, but there no large-scaled study Korean female workers.Therefore, this was designed to investigate relationship quality, workers.Methods: From Mar 2011 Aug 2011, 4,833 workers...
Abstract Background The aim of this study is to determine whether there correlation between endothelial function and skeletal muscle measured by hand grip strength in elderly women. Methods This cross‐sectional used data NAMGARAM‐2 cohort. cohort consisted a group people living three rural communities. They were enrolled for studies on activity limitation due age‐related musculoskeletal disorders including knee osteoarthritis, osteoporosis, sarcopenia. residents aged 40 years or older....
Several educational intervention programs have been designed and developed to improve osteoporosis diagnosis treatment. However, most of the prior studies focused on how affected treatment condition osteoporosis. The purpose this prospective study was evaluate changes in knowledge, self-efficacy, fall physical exercise dietary pattern calcium vitamin D intake after education. From November 1, 2015 August 31, 2016, 271 eligible candidates (who were over 50 years old from 23 different...

Citrus platymamma hort. ex Tanaka belongs to the Rutaceae family and is widely used in folk medicines Korea due its anti‑proliferative, anti‑cancer, anti‑oxidant, anti‑inflammatory anti‑diabetic activities. However, molecular mechanism of anti‑cancer effect not well understood. The present study was conducted elucidate flavonoids from (FCP) on A549 cells. FCP displayed concentration-dependent inhibition cells proliferation. Further, flow cytometry revealed that significantly increased sub‑G1...
Panax ginseng is regarded as one of the best compounds for promoting health, and it has been used traditionally a medicinal herb.
