To evaluate the clinical benefits and risks of anticoagulation with warfarin in cirrhotic patients atrial fibrillation (AF).A total 465 diagnosed nonvalvular AF were retrospectively analyzed. We compared incidences ischemic stroke major bleeding events between 2 groups examined factors predicting or events.Of AF, 113 (24.3%) received warfarin. Warfarin users had a lower mean Child-Pugh score (6.1 ± 1.5 vs. 7.6 2.6) higher CHA2DS2VASc (2.0 2.5 1.7 1.3) than nonusers (P's < 0.05). Overall,...
e17561 Background: Olaparib is approved for first-line (1L) and second or subsequent-line (2L+) maintenance therapy in BRCA-mutated ovarian cancer (OC). However, the correlation between location of BRCA mutation benefit olaparib has not been thoroughly investigated. We aimed to analyze real-world clinical outcomes identify prognostic factors Korean patients with OC, focusing on sites. Methods: This retrospective cohort study included OC who received as 1L 2L+ at single center January 2015...
The symptoms of adrenal insufficiency (AI) overlap with the common effects advanced cancer and chemotherapy. Considering that AI may negatively affect overall prognosis patients if not diagnosed in a timely manner, we analyzed incidence, risk factors, predictive methods patients.We retrospectively medical records 184 adult malignancy who underwent rapid adrenocorticotrophic hormone stimulation test hospitalist units tertiary hospital. Their baseline characteristics clinical features were...
Although a management fee for hospitalist service was established in Korea, the number of hospitalists required system to run remains outmatched.In January 2020 and February 2022, before after establishment respectively, cross-sectional online surveys were conducted among internal medicine board-certified hospitalists.There 59 64 respondents 2022 surveys, respectively.

The addition of immune checkpoint inhibitors (ICIs), pembrolizumab or dostarlimab, to paclitaxel and carboplatin (TC) has shown better response rates survival outcomes for patients with primary advanced mismatch repair-deficient (MMRd) endometrial cancer (EC) in NRG-GY018 RUBY, respectively. Nonetheless, the high cost ICIs remains a major concern when implementing this strategy real world. This study aimed determine cost-effectiveness dostarlimab chemotherapy compared TC MMRd EC.
In most cases of ingested foreign bodies, endoscopy is the first treatment choice. Moreover, emergency endoscopic removal required for sharp and pointed bodies such as animal or fish bones, food boluses, button batteries due to increased risks perforation, obstruction, bleeding. Here, we presented two that needed without sufficient fasting time. Foreign could not be visualized by residue; therefore, fluoroscopic imaging was utilized in both cases. Keywords: bodies; Endoscopy; Fluoroscopy;...
This study was designed to evaluate the history-dependent behaviors of Salmonella Typhimurium re-exposed sublethal levels ciprofloxacin. The S. cells were pre-exposed 0 (CON), 1/16 (LOW), 1/8 (MED), and 1/4 (HIGH) minimum inhibitory concentrations (MICs) ciprofloxacin, followed by re-exposure same concentrations. bacterial growth, postantibiotic effect (PAE), relative fitness, swimming motility treatments evaluated in absence lag phase duration (LPD) estimate assess recovery under...
A hospitalist system was introduced in Korea September 2016 to improve the quality of in-patient care and cope with shortage medical residents.

Jejunal variceal bleeding is less common compared with esophagogastric varices in patients portal hypertension. However, jejunal can be fatal without treatment. Treatments include surgery, transjugular intrahepatic porto-systemic shunt (TIPS), endoscopic sclerotherapy, percutaneous coil embolization, and balloon-occluded retrograde transvenous obliteration (BRTO). Percutaneous embolization considered as an alternative treatment option for those where TIPS or BRTO are not possible....
