Capsule summary(1) What is already known Patients with traumatic brain injury (TBI) often present concomitant extracranial injuries, which can exacerbate the severity of and negatively impact clinical outcomes.Comprehensive management both intracranial injuries crucial for improving patient outcomes.However, detailed comparisons between isolated TBI (iTBI) non-isolated (niTBI) patients have been limited.(2) new in current studyThe niTBI differed markedly from iTBI group terms demographics,...
Objective: This study aimed to investigate the characteristics and epidemiological trends of pediatric injuries among patients visiting emergency departments (EDs) on Jeju Island. Method:Employing a community-level serial cross-sectional analysis, we targeted aged 18 years or younger who visited EDs for over ten-year period.The data, sourced from Injury Surveillance System (JISS), facilitated comprehensive examination injury trends.This included an evaluation annual incidence overall in...
We aimed to investigate the prevalence of low back pain (LBP) and its associated agricultural work-related, biomechanical factors among this population.We analyzed initial survey data from Safety for Agricultural Injury Farmers cohort study involving adult farmers in Jeju Island. The LBP was calculated with factors.In total, 1,209 participants were included analysis. overall 23.7%. Significant associations type farming activity, length career, prior injury within 1 year, stress levels....
To evaluate the survival rate and long term clinical outcomes of hybrid total knee arthroplasty (TKA).We retrospectively analyzed 113 TKAs (NexGen) in 86 patients that were followed for more than 10 years. Kaplan-Meier curves generated using revision as an end point. Knee Society Score (KSS) range motion evaluated assessment plane radiographs used to implant problems.At 11.2 years (range, 12.2 years) follow-up on average, 7 knees required revision. The reason was aseptic loosening 4 (1...
We aimed to evaluate the efficacy and safety of early surgical ligation (within 15 days age) over late (after by a comparative analysis very low birth weight (VLBW) infants undergoing correction for symptomatic patent ductus arteriosus (PDA) course 6 years in our hospital.We retrospectively reviewed all medical records neonatal intensive care unit at Hanyang University Seoul Hospital, from March 2007 May 2013, identify VLBW (< 1,500 g) who underwent PDA ligation.The gestational age (GA) (LL)...
Objective This study aimed to determine whether there is a difference in mortality and medical resource utilization between geriatric (aged ≥65 years) super-geriatric patients ≥80 with traumatic brain injury (TBI). Methods We obtained comprehensive data (demographics, characteristics, severities, outcomes) of TBI from an emergency department-based surveillance system database 2011 2016. Multivariate logistic regression analysis was performed compare the nonroutine discharge (NRDC) status...
The percutaneous transcatheter closure of secundum atrial septal defect has recently become an increasingly widespread alternative to surgical in many centers. Although immediate, short, and intermediate term results are promising, the procedure is not free from inherent complications that could be lethal. We report a case device embolization necessitating emergent retrieval.
Objective This study investigated the hospital diagnoses and characteristics of uncooperative prehospital patients suspected acute stroke who could not undergo a screening test (PHSST).Methods retrospective observational was conducted at single academic with regional center. We analyzed three scenario-based performances using final diagnoses: (1) conservative approach only in underwent PHSST, (2) real-world that considered all as positive, (3) contrapositive were negative.Results Of 2,836...
Glufosinate ammonium (GLA) is widely used as a commercial herbicide in many countries. Neurotoxicity of GLA has been associated with serious neurological complications such loss consciousness, convulsions, and memory impairment. Late-onset impairment due to GLA-induced hippocampal lesions the most distinct clinical feature poisoning. However, lesion splenium corpus callosum (SCC) rare condition poisoning, so features are not well known. We report case 57-year-old male patient who developed...
The aim of this study was to investigate the prevalence shoulder pain and analyze its association with socio-demographic factors, agricultural work-related conditions, biomechanical factors among farmers on Jeju Island. We utilized initial survey data from Safety for Agricultural Injury Farmers' cohort involving adult presence characteristics pain, socio-demographics, were assessed using semi-structured questionnaires. A total 1206 participants analyzed associated risk frequency multivariate...
Sclerosing encapsulating peritonitis (SEP) is characterized by the partial or complete enclosing of small intestines a thick fibro-collagenous membrane, which can cause recurrent intestinal obstruction. SEP clinically rare disease, and major risk factor peritoneal dialysis (PD). Early diagnosis an important in patient's prognosis, but it difficult. A 52-year-old woman visited emergency department (ED) with 2-day history abdominal pain vomiting. She had liver cirrhosis chronic hepatitis B, no...

Purpose To evaluate the severity of trauma, many scoring systems and predictive models have been presented. The quick Sequential Organ Failure Assessment (qSOFA) is a simple system based on vital signs, we expect it to be easier apply trauma patients than other assessment tools. Methods This study was cross-sectional who visited emergency department Jeju National University Hospital. We excluded under age 18 years unknown outcomes. calculated qSOFA, Modified Early Warning Score (mEWS),...
