Abstract We investigated the heritability of educational attainment and how it differed between birth cohorts cultural–geographic regions. A classical twin design was applied to pooled data from 28 representing 16 countries including 193,518 twins with information on at 25 years age or older. Genetic factors explained major part individual differences in (heritability: a 2 = 0.43; 0.41–0.44), but also environmental variation shared by co-twins substantial (c 0.31; 0.30–0.33). The proportions...
Background/Objectives: The aim of this study was to determine the optimal ventilation mode during cardiopulmonary resuscitation (CPR) by comparing effects chest compression-synchronized (CCSV) and intermittent positive-pressure (IPPV) on arterial blood gases. Methods: This prospective randomized controlled included patients presenting with out-of-hospital cardiac arrest who were randomly assigned CCSV or IPPV groups. Arterial gas analysis performed at start CPR 10 min after initiating...
It is estimated that over 60% of out-of-hospital cardiac arrest (OHCA) patients with a shockable rhythm are refractory to current treatment, never achieve return spontaneous circulation, or die before they reach the hospital. Therefore, we aimed identify whether field resuscitation time associated survival rate in OHCA (rOHCA) initial rhythm. This cross-sectional retrospective study extracted data emergency medical service (EMS)-treated aged ≥ 15 years suspected etiology and confirmed by EMS...
The time between symptom onset and arrival at an emergency department (ED) (S2D) is a crucial for optimal intravenous reperfusion care ischemic stroke. We aimed to analyze the effect of medical services (EMS) utilization inter-hospital transfer on S2D in Korea. Ischemic stroke patients were prospectively enrolled from November 2007 December 2012 23 tertiary teaching hospital EDs Of 31,443 adult patients, 20,780 categorized into 4 groups based modes EMS transfer: direct transport destination...
Background Cardiopulmonary resuscitation (CPR) is a very critical phenomenon, and to prepare for it, most nurses undertake simulation training, during which learners’ stress levels should be managed. This study aims evaluate nurses’ CPR training using heart rate variability (HRV) measured with smartwatch determine the correlation between individual personality traits levels. Methods prospective observational was conducted from July 2020 December 2021. For participating in advanced life...
In tuberculosis (TB) treatment, adverse drug reactions (ADRs) can interrupt treatment and decrease the quality of life (QoL). We aimed to prospectively investigate incidence ADRs first-line anti-TB drugs related outcomes QoL.Adult patients with TB who had been treated in five Korean hospitals were enrolled. ADR questionnaire surveys blood tests performed four times serially, QoL was assessed on fourth week (±2 weeks).Of 410 enrolled (males, 62%; mean age, 52.1 ± 18.1 years [those aged ≥65...
During the coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) pandemic, prehospital times were delayed for patients who needed to arrive at hospital in a timely manner receive treatment. To address this, March 2020, Korean government designated emergency medical centers critical care (EMC-CC). This study retrospectively analyzed whether this intervention effectively reduced ambulance diversion (AD) and shortened using service records from 219,763 Gyeonggi Province, collected between 1 January 31 December...
We analyzed the associations between area-level socioeconomic status (SES) and prehospital delay in acute ischemic stroke (AIS) patients by degree of urbanization with use an ecological framework. The participants were 13,637 over 18 years age who experienced AIS from 2007 to 2012 admitted any 29 hospitals South Korea. Area-level SES was determined using 11 variables 2010 Korean census. primary outcome a (more than three hours onset time). Multilevel logistic regression conducted define...
Although inequality in traumatic brain injury (TBI) by individual socioeconomic status (SES) exists, interventions to modify SES are difficult. However, as for area-based can affect the SES, monitoring or public health intervention be planned. We analyzed effect of on hospitalization TBI and revealed yearly trends provide a basis intervention.We included patients who were hospitalized due intracranial injuries (ICIs) between 2008 2015 measure severe with data provided Korea National Hospital...
Traumatic brain injury (TBI) is a major public health problem worldwide.Each year, approximately 27 to 69 million people are diagnosed with TBI worldwide, an estimated incidence of 351 939 cases per 100,000 population [1,2].Additionally, the age-standardized in Korea 2017 was 476 [3].According most recent report from Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) [3], leading cause death disability, 210,000 TBI-related hospitalizations 2020 69,000 deaths 2021.The majority TBIs preventable,...
Preventing perinatal transmission is important for hepatitis B (HepB) elimination. We conducted a retrospective cohort study to assess the interval between HepB birth-dose (HepB-BD) second-dose (HepB-SD) vaccination on transmission. Among 39,313 infants born s-antigen (HBsAg)-positive mothers from Korean national database 38,411 (97.7%) had completed timely immunophylaxis with HepB-BD 41,572 (99.8%) immune globulin, and 1027 (2.6%) were HBsAg-positive at ≥ 9 months. Maternal factors (i.e....
Implementation of dispatcher-assisted cardiopulmonary resuscitation (DACPR) has increased the likelihood bystander CPR upon cardiac arrest. However, quality been found to be very low. In this study, we aimed compare between current DACPR practices and interventional instruction adding verbal encouragement from dispatcher.In randomized controlled trial, recruited adult (age ≥18) laypersons who were non-health care providers had never received any previous verified training. They randomly...
Background:The purpose of this study was to identify the characteristics injuries school-aged children transported via emergency medical services (EMS) that occurred in schools by comparing with outside school.Methods: Data from 119 EMS 2012 2014 were analyzed.School and non-school analyzed 6 17 years age.The epidemiologic assessed according school-age groups; low-grade primary (6-8 years), high-grade (9-13 middle (13-15 years) high (15-17 school.Gender-stratified multivariable logistic...
Background Cardiopulmonary resuscitation (CPR) education requires that learners practice key skills to promote mastery. Our aim in this study was evaluate differences post-education performance and class participation during CPR training between face-to- face (FF) non-face-to-face (NFF) learning formats. Methods This a randomized controlled of third-year medical students from two university hospital, allocated either the FF or NFF format for education. The scenario addressed single-person...
We analyzed the changes in patients’ clinical characteristics and transport refusal pre- post-COVID-19 identified reasons for using emergency medical services run sheet data from pre-COVID-19 (April−December 2019) 2020) Gyeonggi Province, South Korea. included patients aged ≥18 years. Univariate multivariate logistic regression analyses were performed to identify relationship between personal factors refusal. During control study periods, 612,681 cases reported; rates during periods 6.7%...
