Empathy is an essential element of physician professionalism. Thus, proper evaluation and education empathy in medical students important for education.This study was conducted to evaluate the psychometric properties Korean Student-Version Jefferson Scale Physician (JSPE-S).The scale completed cross-sectionally by 493 at Seoul National University College Medicine Korea.Item-total correlations were all positive statistically significant. Cronbach's coefficient alpha 0.84. A factor structure...
Previous studies on empathy in Korean medical students were conducted small populations or with different scales of measurement, resulting low representativeness and generalisability the findings.To evaluate throughout country to make suggestions improve empathy.The Jefferson Scale Empathy (JSE) (Korean) was used, impact sex, age, school admission system, grade respondents investigated.We analyzed 5343 questionnaires found a mean score 105.9 ± 12.8. Females post-baccalaureate had higher...

Thus, evaluation and enhancement empathy physicians important, regardless geographical boundaries.This study was designed to evaluate the psychometrics a Korean version Jefferson Scale Physician (JSPE) among physicians.The JSPE completed by 229 Korea.Item-total score correlations were all positive statistically significant. Cronbach's coefficient alpha 0.84. The mean 98.2 (SD = 12.0), which lower than that reported for American...
Abstract In patients with darker skin types (Fitzpatrick phototypes III – VI ), acne is often accompanied by post‐inflammatory hyperpigmentation ( PIH ). Further, acne‐related pigmentation can pose a greater concern for the patient than lesions. There has been little formal study of this . Recently, Asian Acne Board an international group dermatologists interest in research made preliminary evaluation frequency and characteristics seven countries. A total 324 sequential subjects were...
Platelet-rich plasma (PRP) which contains large amounts of growth factors has been tried to enhance therapeutic efficacy laser treatment for acne scar with unknown underlying mechanism.The present study was conducted investigate the molecular mechanism increased clinical PRP when combined fractional treating scars.Subjects mild moderate scars were treated two sessions CO2 therapy given and without co-administration PRP. Skin biopsy specimens obtained at baseline, 1, 3, 7, 28 days...
Atrophic acne scar, a persistent sequela from acne, is undesirably troubling to many patients due its cosmetic and psychosocial aspects. Although there have been some reports emphasizing the role of early inflammatory responses in atrophic scarring, evolving perspectives on detailed pathogenic processes are promptly needed. Examining histological, immunological molecular changes lesions susceptible scarring can provide new insights understand pathophysiology scar. We experimentally validated...
The association between acne and food has been evaluated with inconsistent results. We enrolled 783 patients 502 control subjects. For the acne, blood tests for insulin, insulin-like growth factor-1 (IGF-1), factor binding protein-3 (IGFBP-3), post prandial 2 hours glucose (PP2), dehydroepiandrosterone sulphate (DHEAS) were performed. divided into an "aggravated by food" group (AF) a "not aggravated (NAF). All participants asked to fill out questionnaire. frequency of vegetables (yellow,...
Oral isotretinoin is a highly effective agent for the treatment of moderate to severe acne, but ever since oral was introduced as modality relationship between therapy and psychiatric problems, especially depression, has been controversial. The purposes this study were know acute effects on symptoms investigate relationships among them, which have not reported in published work. This cohort included 38 acne patients who started therapy. Individual examined before administering 2 8 weeks...
Hidradenitis suppurativa (HS) is a chronic, relapsing, inflammatory skin disorder. Although several epidemiological studies have been conducted in Western countries, such data regarding Asian populations are scarce. In this study, we sought to investigate the demographic and clinical features of HS Korea. A total 438 patients, diagnosed with from May 2007 April 2017, were enrolled electronic medical record each patient was reviewed. Male patients predominant male : female ratio 2.5:1. Mean...
Recently, a demand for safe and effective treatment of acne has been increasing. Although visible light attracted attention as new option, the effect red alone not yet evaluated.The objective was to assess efficacy phototherapy with portable device in vulgaris.Twenty-eight volunteers mild moderate were treated light-emitting devices this split-face randomized trial. The right or left side face performed 15 minutes twice day 8 weeks. Clinical photographs, lesion counts, visual analog scale...
Abstract Background Acne is a common skin disorder that affects both adolescents and adults. However, few epidemiological studies on this condition have been conducted in Asia. Objectives The purpose of study was to analyze the incidence acne identify its demographic clinical features aggravating factors. In addition, we examined relationships between these Methods Epidemiological data were obtained, using self‐administered questionnaire, from patients who visited 17 general hospitals...
Fractional microneedling radiofrequency (FMR) is an emerging treatment modality, but its effect on rosacea has not been studied yet.To investigate the potential impact of FMR clinical improvement and histologic changes in patients.A 12-week, prospective, randomized, split-face trial was conducted. Two sessions were performed one side cheeks with 4-week interval other remained untreated. Erythema index from DermaSpectrometer a* value Spectrophotometer CM-2002 measured at each visit for...
Seborrhoeic dermatitis (SD) is common in Asia. Its prevalence estimated to be 1-5% adults. However, larger population-based studies into the epidemiology of SD Asia are lacking, and aetiology may differ widely from Western countries different parts In addition, clinically significant differences between Asian Caucasian skin have been reported. There a need define standardized clinical diagnostic criteria and/or grading system help determine appropriate treatments for within With this mind,...
Background: Riehl's melanosis presents as a diffuse gray-brown to black hyperpigmentation around face. The treatment of this disease is challenging and quite limited despite patients' excessive psychological stresses.Objective: In prospective pilot study, we evaluated the efficacy safety for novel combination therapy based on low-fluence Q-switched 1064 nm Nd:YAG laser, hydroquinone cream oral tranexamic acid recalcitrant melanosis.Methods: Totally eight patients with who had failed...
BACKGROUND Nonablative laser is gaining popularity because of the low risk complications, especially in patients with darker skin. OBJECTIVE To compare efficacy and safety a long-pulse neodymium-doped yttrium aluminium garnet (Nd:YAG) combined 585/1,064-nm for treatment acne scars. MATERIALS AND METHODS Nineteen mild to moderate atrophic scars received four Nd:YAG or sessions at fortnightly intervals. Treatments were administered randomly split-face manner. RESULTS Acne showed improvement,...
The effect of combined 585/1,064-nm (sequential dual-wavelength pulsed dye laser (PDL) and neodymium-doped yttrium aluminium garnet) therapy for acne vulgaris has not been evaluated.To compare the efficacy safety PDL treatment mild to moderate facial acne.A 12-week, randomized, prospective, split-face, double-blind study was performed. Sixteen participants with were treated a single pass on half face other during each session. Patients underwent three sessions at 2-week intervals followed up...
Abstract Various methods of photodynamic therapy (PDT) for acne have been introduced. However, comparative studies among them are still needed. We performed this study to compare the effect methyl aminolevulinate (MAL) PDT between red light and intense pulsed (IPL).
