Background: Little is known about accuracy and confidence of clinicians' prediction survival (CPS) in East-Asian countries. Objective: We aimed to examine CPS for 7-, 21-, 42-day palliative inpatients its association with prognostic confidence. Design: An international prospective cohort study Japan (JP), Korea (KR), Taiwan (TW). Setting/Subjects: Subjects were advanced cancer admitted 37 care units three Measurements: Discrimination was investigated through sensitivity, specificity, overall...
Many studies have assessed the risk factors for adverse drug reactions (ADRs) in elderly patients. However, most of these focused on ADRs, not serious ADRs (s-ADRs). s-ADRs are commonly found hospitalized warrant imminent but thorough investigations, given their critical impact patient health. Therefore, this retrospective study aimed to assess associated patients.In-patients aged >65 years having during hospitalization at a university hospital Korea between 2010 and 2012 were included....
Obesity is a significant health risk factor for cardiovascular diseases. Dyslipidemia, defined as low high-density lipoprotein cholesterol (HDL-C) level, associated with these risks. Recent bioelectrical impedance analysis (BIA) devices offer precise measurements of the percent body fat (PBF). We aimed to determine association between PBF and HDL-C levels in middle-aged men Korea.
Background: Symptoms are not typically part of established various prognostic factors and scoring systems but among the most frequently assessed issues in patient care. Objectives: To evaluate that, changes symptoms can provide additional useful information. Design: A secondary analysis an international cohort study Japan, Korea, Taiwan. Setting/Subjects: Subjects were adult patients with advanced cancer (n = 2074) who admitted to 37 palliative care units (PCUs) 3 countries from January 2017...
Objective: Mid-upper arm circumference (MUAC) has been used to assess malnutrition and health status across various disease groups. However, it is unclear whether MUAC associated with quality of life (QOL) patients advanced cancer. Our goal was investigate the relationship between QOL in ambulatory out-patients Method: This a cross-sectional study conducted tertiary cancer center South Korea. A total 200 at oncology clinics Seoul National University Bundang Hospital from March 2016 January...
We aimed to compare the performance of established inflammation and nutrition-based prognostic indices with a relatively novel index 'mid-upper arm circumference (MUAC)' in outpatients advanced cancer.This study was secondary analysis prospective cohort that enrolled 200 cancer visiting medical oncology clinic at tertiary hospital. All patients were followed until death, Glasgow Prognostic Score (GPS), modified GPS (mGPS), Nutritional Index (PNI), neutrophil/lymphocyte ratio (NLR),...
BackgroundPatients with advanced cancer suffer from various physical and psychosocial distresses. With disease progression, anorexia was also a common symptom of distress in patients. Eventually, prolonged poor nutrition leads the deterioration patients' performance statuses quality life as progress.AimsThis study aimed to identify direct correlations between status, burden mid-upper arm circumference (MUAC).MethodsThis cross-sectional conducted 200 patients March 2016 January 2019 at...
Abstract Purpose Few large-scale studies have focused on the prevalence of symptoms and signs during last days patients diagnosed with advanced cancer. Identifying patterns specific according to cancer type is helpful provide end-of-life care for We investigated severity associated impending death in Methods In this secondary analysis an international multicenter cohort study conducted three East Asian countries, we compared among dying 3 before primary using one-way variance (ANOVA). Post...
