High retear rates of arthroscopic massive rotator cuff repair have been reported with relatively satisfactory functional outcomes.To assess the clinical and radiological outcomes an tears using a suture bridge technique. We also aimed to explore various factors that may affect retears.Case-control study; Level evidence, 3.Sixty-six patients included in study were divided into 2 groups according presence retears on magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) evaluation at minimum 1 year after surgery....
The aims of this study were to investigate the clinical and colonoscopic characteristics patients with intestinal Behçet's disease compare findings typical atypical disease. Ninety-four diagnosed as having included. Of these, we considered 42 complete or incomplete type; these fulfilled international criteria "typical," other 52 classified "atypical" Abdominal pain was most common symptom (92%), followed by diarrhea gastrointestinal bleeding. All 22 a history surgery had ulcers at...
Abstract Very few population-based studies have examined the epidemiology of Wilson’s disease (WD). We investigated WD using National Health Insurance Service (NHIS) database in South Korea. analyzed not only statistical variables WD, but also those WD-related diseases. patients were identified with relevant International Classification Diseases-10 code out 50.5 million people. used NHIS from 2009 to 2016 and incidence rate, prevalence, clinical symptoms WD. A total 1,333 identified. The...
Few studies have focused on computed tomography findings before a pancreatic cancer diagnosis. We aimed to investigate the prediagnostic of patients who had undergone within period their diagnosis.Between January 2008 and December 2019, 27 underwent contrast-enhanced abdominal or chest including pancreas 1 year diagnosis were enrolled in this retrospective study. The imaging divided into parenchyma duct findings.All for reasons unrelated cancer. ducts showed normal seven abnormal 20...
To evaluate the efficacy of fibrin sealant as a topical hemostatic agent and for graft fixation during skin grafting hand burns.
To compare, in terms of compliance, toxicity, quality life (QOL) and efficacy, intravenous 5-fluorouracil plus folinic acid with oral tegafur-uracil as postoperative adjuvant chemotherapy after curative resection patients Dukes' stage B2 C2 colon cancer. Among all adenocarcinoma the operated on between July 1997 June 1999, 122 or cancer were enrolled this study. Fifty-three treated (5-FU group) 69 (UFT group). Compliance, QOL efficacy evaluated. Compared 5-FU group, UFT group experienced a...
Abstract Background and Aims: Adefovir dipivoxil (ADV) is a nucleotide analogue that known to be effective for lamivudine‐resistant hepatitis B virus (HBV) mutants as well wild‐type HBV. The aim of this study assess the efficacy ADV against genotype C HBV mutants. Methods: Thirty‐five patients with breakthrough due received 10 mg daily discontinuation lamivudine. Quantitative DNA, HBeAg, liver function test including alanine aminotransferase (ALT) was checked every 4–12 weeks evaluate ADV....
Background and Aims . Endoscopic submucosal dissection (ESD) is routinely performed in treating gastric neoplasia requires long-term higher levels of sedation. Endoscopist-directed nurse-administered sedation (EDNAS) has not been well studied ESD. This study aimed to evaluate the safety effectiveness EDNAS for Methods Patients treated with ESD tumors between 2013 2015 were retrospectively collected. divided into a midazolam-treated group (M group) midazolam plus propofol-treated (MP group)....
Pulmonary extraintestinal manifestation is rare in Crohn's disease and has been reported only a few cases. Despite the presence of pulmonary abnormalities significant proportion patients with inflammatory bowel disease, there are case reports, due to complicated diagnosis low recognition by clinicians. Currently, treatment guidelines for have not established. There some reports that achieved remission after infliximab treatment. Clinical radiological involvement adalimumab therapy yet. Here,...
The association between rectosigmoid polyps and in the more proximal colon is still a matter of debate, need for colonoscopy patients with that are detected by flexible sigmoidoscopy controversial. aim this study was to determine whether or not certain characteristics associated presence colonic polyps. Seven hundred twenty-eight who underwent total October 1995 June 1998 had colorectal were retrospectively analyzed. Patients inflammatory bowel diseases, familial adenomatous polyposis, any...
To estimate long-term outcomes after treatment modification in patients with chronic hepatitis B (CHB) treated entecavir (ETV) and telbivudine (LdT).The study enrolled 131 nucleos(t)ide analogue (NA)-naïve CHB ETV or LdT. During the 3-year study, NA history including incidence, type of modification, reasons for overall complete virologic response (CVR) rate were retrospectively evaluated using patients' medical records.Among patients, 84 47 initially LdT, respectively. course 82 group...
Background/Aims: This study aimed to compare the efficacy of a recently developed clear-cut knife with that widely used knives for endoscopic submucosal dissection (ESD) in early gastric cancer (EGC).Materials and Methods: Data were collected retrospectively from National Health Insurance Service Ilsan Hospital between May 2017 April 2019. The included 105 patients (108 lesions) EGC who underwent ESD. Fifty-six EGCs dissected using an insulation-tipped diathermic combination needle knife,...
Purpose: This study examined 2-year outcome of consecutive therapy using entecavir (ETV) followed by telbivudine (LdT) in subjects with undetectable hepatitis B virus (HBV) DNA level and normal alanine aminotransferase after the initial 6 months ETV treatment.Materials Methods: Sixty were randomized to continue or switch LdT.Significant difference baseline characteristics was not found between two groups.Persistent HBV 20-60 IU/mL three samples collected apart singly measured >60 defined as...
Background: Acute Respiratory Distress Syndrome (ARDS) presents a significant challenge in burn patients, characterized by high mortality rates and clinical heterogeneity. This study aimed to explore the complexity diversity of ARDS patients identify subgroups with distinct characteristics responses treatment. Understanding these variations is crucial for improving patient outcomes through tailored treatments.Methods: Conducted at Hangang Sacred Heart Hospital, this retrospective cohort...
