Purpose: Dry eye syndrome (DES) is a common disease caused by tear deficiency or excessive evaporation. Because the film layers play major role in pathogenesis of evaporative dry eye, some previous articles have suggested possible mechanism dyslipidemia and DES. However, results were inconsistent few studies conducted to find independent relationship between Therefore, we investigated association with DES middle-aged Korean adults. Methods: This study was on 2272 participants (854 men 1418...
There has been increasing evidence of hormonal changes during reproductive events that lead to mood changes. However, studies on the severity psychological problems according menopausal stage are limited. Thus, this study aimed investigate association between stages, depression and suicidality.A total 45 177 women who underwent regular health check-ups 2015 2018 at Kangbuk Samsung Hospital were included. Participants stratified into four groups (pre-menopause, early transition, late...
To examine the relationship between metabolically healthy and unhealthy obesity phenotypes risk of vasomotor symptoms (VMS) in premenopausal women.Prospective cohort study.Middle-aged women a based on regular health screening examinations.Premenopausal Korean aged 42-52 years were recruited followed up for median 4.2 years. The cross-sectional studies comprised 4672 2590 without VMS at baseline, respectively.Adiposity measures included body mass index (BMI), waist circumference percentage...
Propose: We aimed to investigate the prevalence and risk factors of dry eye syndrome (DES) among a population-based cohort study.Methods: This cross-sectional study was conducted on 475 subjects (184 men 291 women) enrolled in Study Group for Environmental Eye Disease at July 2013. Using ocular surface disease index (OSDI), we measured DES severity defined as OSDI score ≥13. Current symptoms possible such body mass index, occupations, comorbidities, exercise, smoking drinking status were...
Abstract Objective We examined the association between menopause symptoms and prevalence of ideal cardiovascular health (CVH) metrics among premenopausal women. Methods This cross-sectional study comprised 4,611 women aged 42 to 52 years. Data for CVH were collected during screening examinations. Menopause measured using Korean version Menopause-Specific Quality Life questionnaire. For vasomotor, psychosocial, physical, sexual symptoms, participants divided into absent or symptomatic groups,...
Abstract Objective To examine the prevalence of overactive bladder (OAB) according to menopausal stages in middle‐aged women. Design Cross‐sectional study. Setting Total Healthcare Center South Korea. Population Middle‐aged Korean women ( n =3469, mean age, 49.5 ± 2.9 years). Methods Menopausal were defined Stages Reproductive Aging Workshop +10 criteria, and symptoms assessed using version Menopause‐Specific Quality Life (MENQOL).

This study addressed the effect of balance control problems high-heeled women. Clinical relationships have been proposed linking foot ailments or pain to wearing high heels, yet little quantitative research has done on relationship between bare and heeled foot. The purposes this were objectively quantify displacements velocities center-of-pressure (COP) body during two-way waist pulling compare differences barefooted situations. We used a system which three different magnitudes sway...
The role of anti-Müllerian hormone (AMH) levels in incident vasomotor symptoms (VMS) is largely unknown. This study aimed to investigate the relationship between AMH and development early-onset VMS among premenopausal women. Our cohort comprised 2041 women aged 42-52 years free at baseline whose were measured. VMS, including hot flushes night sweats, assessed using Korean version Menopause-specific Quality Life questionnaire. Early-onset was defined as occurrence prior menopause. Parametric...
Previous studies have shown relatively low correlations between self-reported and accelerometer-assessed physical activity (PA). However, this association differs by socio-demographic factors, relationship has not been fully investigated in the general population. Thus, we correlation PA whether it differed demographic socioeconomic factors among Korean population.This cross-sectional study included 623 participants (203 men 420 women) aged 30 to 64 years, who completed a questionnaire wore...

Abstract Context The relationship of ideal cardiovascular health (CVH) behaviors with preventing early-onset vasomotor symptoms (VMSs) is unknown. Objective We investigated the association between CVH metrics and development VMSs in premenopausal women. Methods This cohort study included 2541 women aged 42 to 52 years without at baseline. were defined according American Heart Association Life Simple 7 metrics. Owing limited availability dietary information, scored from 0 (unhealthy) 6...
Abstract Background Reduced glomerular filtration rate and increased asymmetric dimethylarginine (ADMA) are prevalent in elderly people. However, most of the studies that have examined association between two conditions were performed patients with renal dysfunction, but not general population. Thus, we investigated an estimated (eGFR) ADMA concentration among community-dwelling older Koreans. Methods A cross-sectional study was conducted on 269 men 382 women (mean age, 71.6 years) enrolled...
