To investigate sleep disturbances that induce cognitive changes over 4 years in nondemented elderlies.Data were acquired from a nationwide, population-based, prospective cohort of Korean elderlies (2,238 normal cognition [NC] and 655 mild impairment [MCI]). At baseline 4-year follow-up assessments, sleep-related parameters (midsleep time, duration, latency, subjective quality, efficiency, daytime dysfunction) status measured using the Pittsburgh Sleep Quality Index Consortium to Establish...
Changes in the carrier mobility of tensile strained Si and SiGe nanowires (NWs) were examined using an electrical push-to-pull device (E-PTP, Hysitron). The changes found to be closely related chemical structure at surface, likely defect states. As strain is increased, resistivity NWs deceases a linear manner. However, corresponding values for increased with increasing strain, which broken bonds induced by defects NW surface. Broken communicate state are critically altered when Ge...
This study evaluated the association between results of immediate brain computed tomography (CT) scans and outcome in patients who were treated with therapeutic hypothermia after cardiac arrest. The evaluation was based on changes ratio gray matter to white matter.A total 167 successfully resuscitated arrest from March 2009 December 2011 included this study. We selected 51 received a CT scan within 1 hour return spontaneous circulation (ROSC) had been hypothermia. Circular regions...
Background— Modern treatments have improved the survival rate following cardiac arrest, but prognostication remains a challenge. We examined prognostic value of continuous electroencephalography according to time by performing amplitude-integrated on patients with arrest receiving therapeutic hypothermia. Methods and Results— prospectively studied 130 comatose treated hypothermia from September 2010 April 2013. evaluated normal trace (TTNT) as neurological outcome predictor determined burst...
Abstract Background We evaluated the validity of Canadian Triage and Acuity Scale (CTAS) in elderly emergency department (ED) patients. In particular, we examined sensitivity specificity CTAS for identifying patients who received an immediate life-saving intervention ED. Methods reviewed medical records consecutive were 65 years age or older presented to a single academic ED within three-month period. The triage scores compared actual patient course, including disposition, discharge outcome...
We evaluated the predictive value of serum biomarkers and various clinical risk scales for 28-day mortality community-acquired pneumonia (CAP). Serum including procalcitonin (PCT) C-reactive protein (CRP) were in emergency department. Scores severity index (PSI); CURB65 (confusion, urea, respiration, blood pressure; age >65 years); Infectious Disease Society America (IDSA) American Thoracic (ATS) guidelines severe CAP; Acute Physiology, Chronic Health Evaluation (APACHE) II; Sequential Organ...
The objective of this study was to test the hypothesis that an elevated high-sensitivity C-reactive protein (hs-CRP)/albumin ratio at admission increases risk mortality in older patients admitted hospital via emergency department (ED).We performed a retrospective analysis ED with any medical problem between May 2013 and October who were than 65 years. hs-CRP albumin levels measured time ED. primary outcome all-cause in-hospital mortality. Multivariate logistic performed.A total 811 finally...
To assess the performance of post-cardiac arrest (CA) prognostication strategy algorithm recommended by European Resuscitation Council (ERC) and Society Intensive Care Medicine (ESICM) in 2020.This was a retrospective analysis Korean Hypothermia Network Prospective Registry 1.0. Unconscious patients without confounders at day 4 (72-96 h) after return spontaneous circulation (ROSC) were included. The association between prognostic factors included algorithm, except status myoclonus...
Abstract Objective To determine the clinical feasibility of novel serum biomarkers in out-of-hospital cardiac arrest (OHCA) patients treated with target temperature management (TTM). Methods This study was a prospective observational conducted on OHCA who underwent TTM. We measured conventional biomarkers, neuron‑specific enolase and S100 calcium-binding protein (S-100B), as well including tau protein, neurofilament light chain (NFL), glial fibrillary acidic (GFAP), ubiquitin C-terminal...
Abstract This study reports the synthesis of plasmonic hot nanogap networks‐in‐triangular nanoframes (NITNFs), featuring narrow intraparticle networks embedded within triangular nanoframes. Starting from Au nanotriangles, Pt NITNFs are synthesized through a cascade reaction involving simultaneous deposition and etching in one‐pot process. The then transformed into plasmonically active via coating. near‐field focusing capabilities tailored by fine‐tuning void area fraction down to 3.9%,...
Background Coronary angiography (CAG) and targeted temperature management (TTM) may improve clinical outcomes after out‐of‐hospital cardiac arrest. This study aimed to assess whether the intervention effects differed according timing percutaneous coronary (PCI) performance. Methods Results Adult patients with presumed cause who underwent CAG TTM within 24 hours following arrest were included from Korean nationwide registry. We investigated associations between of interventions was performed...
Background Therapeutic hypothermia in adult victims who suffer cardiac arrest following drowning has been applied only a small number of cases. In the last 4 years, we have employed therapeutic to decrease hypoxia‐induced brain injury these patients. The purpose present study was report results treatment Methods This investigated utilisation on consecutive patients with because between 2005 and 2008. conducted retrospectively, collecting data by reviewing medical records. Hypothermia, target...
Abstract Introduction Various methods and devices have been described for cooling after cardiac arrest, but the ideal method remains unclear. The aim of this study was to compare neurological outcomes, efficacies adverse events surface endovascular techniques in arrest patients. Methods We performed a multicenter, retrospective, registry-based adult patients treated with therapeutic hypothermia presenting 24 hospitals across South Korea from 2007 2012. included who received using overall or...
The aim of this study was to investigate the association adverse events (AEs) during targeted temperature management (TTM) and other AEs concomitant treatments advanced critical care period with poor neurological outcome at hospital discharge in adult out-of-hospital cardiac arrest (OHCA) patients.This a retrospective using Korean Hypothermia Network registry data OHCA patients treated TTM 24 teaching hospitals throughout South Korea from 2007 2012. Demographic characteristics, resuscitation...
We hypothesized that the absence of P25 and N20–P25 amplitude in somatosensory evoked potentials (SSEPs) have higher sensitivity than N20 for poor neurological outcomes, we evaluated ability SSEPs to predict long-term outcomes using pattern analyses. Using prospectively collected therapeutic hypothermia registry data, whether cortical contained a negative or positive short-latency wave (N20 P25). The was defined as largest difference between peaks. A good outcome Glasgow-Pittsburgh Cerebral...
The National Early Warning Score (NEWS), based on the patients' vital signs, detects clinical deterioration in critically ill patients and is used to reduce incidence of in-hospital cardiac arrest. However, although mortality prediction signs may be difficult older patients, effectiveness NEWS has not yet been evaluated this population. This study aimed test hypothesis that an elevated at admission increases risk admitted emergency department (ED).We conducted a single-center retrospective...
Attempted suicide remains difficult for clinicians to predict with some established risk factors. We investigate the detailed characteristics of attempted especially according age and methods attempts.A retrospective study was conducted evaluate patients who visited emergency department due suicide. A medical record review all presented (ED) two tertiary teaching hospitals in Korea after attempt between January 1, 2010, December 31, 2017 performed. Demographic information variables (methods...
