The hepatoma arterial-embolization prognostic (HAP) score predicts survival outcome in patients with hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) treated trans-arterial chemoembolization (TACE). We validated the HAP Korean subjects HCC and investigated whether its performance is improved additional parameters.A total of 280 TACE between 2003 2009 were included.

The Bethesda System for Reporting Thyroid Cytopathology (BSRTC) uses six diagnostic categories to standardize communication of thyroid fine-needle aspiration (FNA) interpretations between clinicians and cytopathologists. Since several studies have questioned the accuracy this system, we examined its in our hospital.We calculated incidences malignancy rates each category BSRTC 1,730 FNAs that were interpreted by four cytopathologists Gangnam Severance Hospital October 1, 2011, December 31,...
Although the etiologies of cardiovascular disease (CVD) are widely understood, goal finding a globally effective solution for preventing CVD is unrealistic. Therefore, we aimed to conduct community-based prospective study on prevention and management in Korean adults. This was designed recruit 8,000 healthy adults over course 5 years. The baseline assessment includes wide range established risk factors, including demographic characteristics, medical history, health behaviors, psychological...
The purpose of this study was to explore impulsivity as a motivation for television apparel shopping and investigate impulse buying, parasocial interaction, exposure, program exposure among shoppers. One hundred fifty-four questionnaires were returned from A content analysis revealed four broad categories motivations apparel. Using simple regression analyses, the present research found (a) positive relationship between buying (b) (c) relationships interaction both exposure.
Osteoprotegerin (OPG) is known to regulate processes involved in vascular injury and inflammation. We investigated the relationship between plasma OPG levels stroke subtype, severity at admission functional outcome 3 months 172 patients with acute ischaemic stroke. Patients large artery atherosclerosis those multiple causes had higher than lacune. Increased were independently associated more severe poor outcome. These results suggest pleiotropic roles of mediating brain injury. a potential...
Background and Objectives: To investigate age-specific sex-specific distributions of blood cholesterol in the general Korean population.Subjects Methods: We analyzed data for 8284 men 9246 women aged ≥10 years who participated fifth (2010-2012) Korea National Health Nutrition Examination Survey.Age-specific means, medians, selected percentiles were calculated men, premenopausal women, postmenopausal women.Results: Median total (TC) level increased with age across all groups, from 147 to 196...
Mortalities from cardiovascular disease in Korea have decreased markedly over the past three decades. The major and metabolic risk factors, however, remain prevalent, their burden on health is large. Cardiovascular Metabolic Diseases Etiology Research Center (CMERC) planned a cohort study order to identify novel factors develop evidence-based prevention strategies of diseases. CMERC deliberately designed two prospective cohorts, community-based general population (the cohort) its sister (a...

All had blood glucose less than 100mg/dL (5.6 mmol/L) HbA1c level below 6.5% (48 mmol/mol). They were also free history cardiovascular disease, known type 2 diabetes mellitus or use...
ABSTRACT— Cognitive function among the elderly aged 65 or older was studied in a rural community of Korea. The prevalence rates cognitive impairment were significantly higher females (64%) than males (33%). Sex differences both mild (25% vs 45% females) and severe (8% 19% reached statistically significant levels. increased with age, age‐related increase steeper after 80 75 females. impairment, on other hand, did not so prominently aging. From this point view, it could be assumed that may...
Summary We tested the effects of cranio‐cervical flexion ( CCF ) on activation swallowing‐related muscles while swallowing liquid in a sample 45 healthy volunteers. Activation following movement was examined across two positions (supine and sitting) and, three pressure levels different postures were each condition, respectively. When applied, significantly increased compared to neutral neck position, such findings found both supine sitting positions. Also when level stabilizer escalated,...

Treatment of lung cancer in patients with idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis (IPF) is difficult because the mortality rate after surgery or chemotherapy high for these patients. Spontaneous regression rare, especially cancer. A 62-year-old man, previously diagnosed IPF, presented stage IIIC (T2N3M0) non-small cell About 4 months later, spontaneous primary tumor was observed without treatment. To best our knowledge, this first report a patient IPF.
