Abstract With the growing popularity of mobile technology, communications are becoming an important channel for tourism organisations. This study builds upon a conceptual framework that explains factors influencing tourist acceptance devices. To represent uniqueness technology based on extensive literature review user acceptance, this proposes two external variables (technology experience and trip experience) influential determinants (perceived usefulness perceived ease use). These together...
Generational cohorts that form shared values, preferences, and beliefs throughout their lifetime are likely to represent longstanding behaviors including consumption travel patterns (Bernini & ...
TRI-SCORE was recently developed in Europe as a risk model for predicting in-hospital death after isolated tricuspid valve surgery. We aimed to validate an Asian population and investigate its value long-term outcomes.
Background Tricuspid regurgitation (TR) severity is associated with poor prognosis in patients atrial fibrillation (AF). Recently, right ventricular–pulmonary arterial (RV‐PA) coupling has been shown to be related clinical outcomes TR. However, data on the relationship of RV‐PA progression significant TR are limited. This study aimed investigate whether affects AF. Methods Among 664 AF who underwent follow‐up echocardiography at least 6 months after initial assessment, 484 consecutive (mean...
Obesity, a chronic metabolic disorder, is characterized by enlarged fat mass and dysregulation of lipid metabolism. The medicinal plant, Boesenbergia pandurata (Roxb.) Schltr., has been reported to possess anti-oxidative anti-inflammatory properties; however, its anti-obesity activity unexplored. present study was conducted determine whether B. extract (BPE), prepared from rhizome parts, attenuated high-fat diet (HFD)-induced obesity in C57BL/6J mice. molecular mechanism investigated 3T3-L1...
This study aimed to investigate the prevalence and clinical significance of lead-related tricuspid regurgitation (TR) in patients with permanent pacemaker (PM). A total 2,533 who underwent PM implantation between January 2008 December 2017 a single center were retrospectively reviewed. Among them, 429 transthoracic echocardiography within 90 days before followed up at least 3 months after included. Patients had pre-existing grade or 4 TR, atrial lead, undergone valve surgery excluded....
Abstract The purpose of this research is to compare salient approaches for identifying the patterns college students' information search behaviours while preparing their spring break trips. Comparing four different prominent constructs (i.e. past experience, prior knowledge, involvement and a concept specialisation combining those three variables), results study indicate that have more distinctive than others in terms measurement travellers' perceived usefulness sources importance content....
ABSTRACT The study aims at demonstrating cultural differences between Americans and Chinese in terms of customer's perceptions satisfaction crowded environments within the context restaurant settings. It has been noted that culture a substantial impact on customer affection judgment, crowding service is critical antecedent satisfaction. Considering these main themes, this examined how play role predicting setting. With use customers from two different cultures an experimental study,...
Background Hypertrophic cardiomyopathy (HCM) is a genetic disorder affecting not only the myocardium but also mitral valve (MV) and its apparatus. This study aimed to investigate prognostic implication of MV disease progression in East Asian patients with HCM. Methods Results We assessed structure function on indexed echocardiogram 1185 HCM (mean±SD age, 60±14 years; men, 67%) longitudinal registry, 667 who performed follow-up after 3 5 years were analyzed. Progression regurgitation (MR) was...
ABSTRACT The study examines individuals' attitudes toward destinations by comparing the results of traditional self‐report surveys with those implicit association test (IAT). A total 84 college students (30 Caucasian, 27 Chinese and Korean) were employed to complete computer‐based IATs. show that participants' selected (i.e. China England) vary depending on which two different attitude measures is employed. Specifically, it appears countries are not significantly in survey, but differences...
A severe burn scar contracture of the groin in a 25-year-old woman was successfully reconstructed with microdissection and thinning pedicled deep inferior epigastric perforator (DIEP) flap. This flap is relatively thin cutaneous flap, but may still require secondary defatting procedures, especially when used for coverage mobile anatomic areas such as axilla. radically thinned by excising subcutaneous fatty layer very carefully under loupe magnification, to preserve subdermal vascular plexus....
Abstract The purpose of the study is to compare perception advertising and communication channels between convention visitor bureaus (CVBs) meeting planners in USA. By employing 245 CVBs 226 through an online survey method, results reveal clear channel discrepancies terms preference, attitude usage channels. In addition, identifies different linkages effects two groups. Implications for industry practitioners as well suggestions future are discussed. Copyright © John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.
Abstract The purpose of this study was to identify information search behaviors college student travelers by applying the concept specialization. Dividing into groups high‐, medium‐, and low‐leveled specialization, research investigated perceived value content sources, identified main sources used obtain for their recent spring break trips. It observed that different specialization assigned values sources. differences in choice channel also appear be substantial. As a result, findings...
Short QT syndrome is a rare, inherited channelopathy associated with sudden cardiac arrest (SCA) but the characteristics and prognosis of short interval (SQTI) in Korean patients remain unclear. This study aimed to determine clinical outcomes SQTI population.Consecutive from January 1999 March 2019 three university hospitals South Korea were recruited. was defined as Bazett's formula-corrected (QTc) ≤ 340 ms serial electrocardiograms. Age- sex-matched normal QTc without overt cardiovascular...
Background In 2004, Sharon Keene introduced a video microscope to the hair transplant field and discussed about benefits such as ergonomics, quality assurance, easy teaching. 2009, our clinic set up digital systems. CCD-chip-loaded hand-held was connected 19-inch high definition (HD) LCD monitor. We compared transection rates graft-cutting time of two graft-dissecting methods decide which one is more efficient. Methods Two technicians performed follicular unit graft dissection via different...
The primary purposes of this study are to identify individual's attitudes toward the two Asian foods (Chinese food and Japanese food) applying both general explicit implicit measures suggest further theoretical managerial implications for measurement hospitality research. As an experimental study, Implicit Association Test (IAT) is primarily employed research objectives in a psychological approach. In total, 39 American (all Caucasian) college students recruited complete self-reported survey...
The rapid economic development of South Korea provides a unique model to study changes in the clinical characteristics, treatment approaches, and outcomes patients with rheumatic mitral stenosis (MS) relative socioeconomic growth.
This study compared echocardiography (echo) and cardiac computed tomography (CT) in measuring the Wilkins score evaluated potential added benefit of CT predicting immediate percutaneous mitral valvuloplasty (PMV) outcomes rheumatic stenosis (MS) patients deemed eligible for PMV by echo.
Background and Objectives:The EPIC™ stent is a self-expanding, nitinol that has been designed to enhance flexibility provide expansion within vessels.The aim of the present study was investigate clinical efficacy safety when used treat iliac artery diseases in prospective Korean multicenter registry.Methods: A total 138 patients with who received endovascular treatment stents at 9 sites were enrolled cohort followed for 1 year.The primary endpoint 1-year freedom from target lesion...
