We used fractal dimensional analysis to analyze retinal vascular disease burden in eyes with diabetic retinopathy using spectral-domain optical coherence tomography angiography (OCTA).A retrospective study was performed of 13 without macular edema and 56 control eyes. Optical images were acquired the RTVue XR Avanti. Automated segmentation obtained through superficial deep capillary plexuses for each eye. Grayscale OCTA standardized binarized ImageJ. Fractal box-counting analyses Fractalyse....
Purpose: To examine the baseline factors associated with good (20/60 or better) versus poor (20/200 worse) visual outcomes in eyes treatment-naïve neovascular age-related macular degeneration (AMD) receiving intravitreal antivascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) on a treat-and-extend regimen (TER). Methods: An observational, retrospective series of patients managed TER, identified as having either outcomes, was examined. A multivariate regression analysis characteristics and vision at 2,...
Purpose: Macular pigments are preferentially concentrated in the central fovea, an area devoid of vasculature. We hypothesized that there may be a link between macular pigment profile and size structural characteristics foveal avascular zone (FAZ). Methods: Two-wavelength autofluorescence method was used to quantify optical density (MPOD) radius at half peak MPOD, which defined as retinal eccentricity where MPOD value 50% value. Volumetric spectral-domain coherence tomography (OCT) images...
Abstract Coagulopathy is frequent in septic shock and plays a key role multiple organ dysfunction. The aim of this study to investigate application values thromboelastography (TEG) for outcome patients with normal value prothrombin time (PT) active partial thromboplastin (aPTT). Prospective observational using 1298 consecutive TEG at admission was conducted the emergency department (ED) tertiary care hospital South Korea between 2016 2019. After excluding overt-disseminated intravascular...
(1) Background: The currently proposed criteria for diagnosing overt disseminated intravascular coagulation (DIC) are not suitable early detection of DIC. Thromboelastography (TEG) rapidly provides a comprehensive assessment the entire process and is helpful as guide correcting consumptive coagulopathy in sepsis-induced This study aimed to investigate role TEG prediction DIC patients with septic shock. (2) Methods: was conducted prospectively 1294 shock at emergency department (ED) between...
We present a case of combined hamartoma the retina and retinal pigment epithelium associated with subfoveal acquired vitelliform lesion induced by vitreomacular traction. The purpose this report is to unifying hypothesis these concurrent findings, as aided multimodal imaging.A 25-year-old white man presented 6-month history visual disturbance in his left eye. At presentation, ophthalmic assessment showed adjacent optic nerve that had caused marked corrugation within inner surface. An was...
To analyze the frequency and phenotypic variation of AMD in subjects with high myopia (HM), to describe clinical course response treatment neovascularization (NV).Patients HM were identified at five retina tertiary referral centers. Inclusion criteria myopic patients aged 55 years or more axial lengths equal greater than 25.5 mm.A total 874 eyes from 442 older 104 54 (72 ± 11 years) included study followed up for 23.5 19.5 months. The estimated over was 11.9% (95% confidence interval;...
Background To investigate the long-term visual and optical coherence tomography (OCT) anatomical outcomes of type 3 neovascularisation (NV) to identify any baseline predictors poor outcomes. Methods In this retrospective study, patients diagnosed with treatment naïve NV were identified categorised into two groups: good or vision based on final at 1 year. Baseline demographic features acuity (VA) 1-year spectral domain OCT (SD-OCT) findings studied correlated versus Results Ten 25 eyes...
(1) Bio-electrical impedance analysis (BIA) is a rapid, simple, and noninvasive tool for evaluating the metabolic status assessing volume in critically ill patients. Little known, however, prognostic value of body composition septic shock This study assessed association between parameters by mortality patients with emergency department (ED). (2) Data were prospectively collected on adult who underwent protocol-driven resuscitation bundle therapy December 2019 January 2021. The primary...
Abstract Background Previously conducted physician-centered trials on the usefulness of vasopressin have yielded negative results; thus, patient-oriented been warranted. We hypothesize that Augmented-Medication CardioPulmonary Resuscitation could be helpful for selected patients with out-of-hospital cardiac arrest (OHCA). Methods This is a double-blind, single-center, randomized, placebo-controlled trial in emergency department tertiary, university-affiliated hospital Seoul, Korea. A total...
The accelerated diagnostic protocol (ADP) using the Emergency Department Assessment of Chest pain Score (EDACS-ADP), a tool to identify patients at low risk major adverse cardiac event (MACE) among presenting with chest emergency department, was developed contemporary troponin assay. This study performed validate and compare performance EDACS-ADP incorporating high-sensitivity I between who had 30-day MACE without unstable angina (MACE II, respectively).

The History, Electrocardiography, Age, Risk factors, and Troponin (HEART) pathway was developed to identify patients at low risk of a major adverse cardiac event (MACE) among presenting with chest pain the emergency department.We modified HEART by replacing Korean cut-off 25 kg/m² conventional threshold 30 in definition obesity factors. primary outcome MACE within days, which included acute myocardial infarction, coronary intervention, artery bypass grafting, all-cause death.Of 1,304...
Objective Clinical trials on demodynamic-directed cardiopulmonary resuscitation have been limited. The aim of this study is to investigate whether Augmented-Medication CardioPulmonary Resuscitation (AMCPR) would improve the odds return spontaneous circulation (ROSC) in patients with out-of-hospital cardiac arrest. Methods This a double-blind, single-center, randomized placebo-controlled trial that will be conducted emergency department tertiary, university-affiliated hospital Seoul, Korea. A...
Objectives: Acute pulmonary embolism (PE) is the main cause of death in cancer patients, but there are limited prognostic tools for patients with active and acute PE. We aimed to identify factors 30-day mortality Methods: This retrospective observational study included all adult aged ≥18 years PE from February 2017 2019 at emergency department tertiary care hospital, Seoul, Korea. The primary outcome mortality. Results: A total 178 were a mean age 63.9 (SD 10.4) males 52.8%. overall rate was...
Abstract This study aimed to develop a new prognostic model for predicting 30-day mortality in solid tumor patients with suspected infection. is retrospective cohort and was conducted from August 2019 December at single center. Adult active infection were enrolled among visitors the emergency room (ER). Logistic regression analysis used identify potential predictors model. A total of 899 included; 450 development 449 validation cohort. Six independent variables predicted mortality: Eastern...
