IMPORTANCE Classically, surgery has been the mainstay of management for vocal fold (VF) polyps. However, a significant portion patients experience spontaneous regression and may not require surgery. OBJECTIVES To report results conservative VF polyps, identify with polyps that are more likely to resolve, describe time course resolution. DESIGN, SETTING, AND PARTICIPANTS In this case series 248 conducted presenting tertiary referral center, 94 were treated conservatively at least 3 months...
The aim of this study was to determine the early outcomes using extracorporeal membrane oxygenation (ECMO) in near-drowning patients with cardiac or pulmonary failure. This based on data from 9 including 2 children (mean age 33; 8 males, 1 female) who received ECMO after between 2008 and 2013. Veno-arterial veno-arteriovenous used sustained arrest veno-venous 7 severe acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS). means partial arterial oxygen pressure (PaO2), Murray score, sequential organ...
The erythrocyte sedimentation rate (ESR) is a marker for inflammation, and it has been identified as risk factor atherothrombotic cardiovascular disease. aim of this study was to determine the relationship between plasma ESR level nocturnal oxygen desaturation or other polysomnographic variables examine role obesity in patients with obstructive sleep apnea syndrome (OSAS).This retrospective included 72 diagnosis OSAS who underwent overnight polysomnography routine blood tests July December...

The aim of this study was to determine the long-term outcomes surgical angioplasty for left main coronary artery (SA-LMCA) stenosis.We retrospectively analyzed data from 24 consecutive patients (mean age, 55 years; male/female, 12/12) who underwent a (LMCA) stenosis at our institution between 1995 and 2002. We used autologous pericardium in 7 bovine 17 as patch. evaluated late mortality major adverse cardiac events (MACE) rate.There no operative mortality. Control angiography exhibited wide...
Painless legs and moving toes is an unusual syndrome, which has not previously been reported as initial presentation of ischemic stroke. We encountered a 78-year-old woman who developed dysarthria involuntary movement her left that was clinically regarded painless toes. These symptoms appeared abruptly simultaneously the stroke, improved gradually with conservative management by intravenous hydration for month. suggest that, in our case, cortical brain lesion caused stroke might be...
Objectives: We investigated extrathyroidal extension (ETE) through frozen biopsy for intraoperative decision‐making in patients with papillary thyroid cancer (PTC). Methods: During the period of study an operation was performed 268 PTC and ETE evaluated using biopsies tissue. Results: confirmed 54 (20%) on biopsy. Fifty‐three among showing were permanent pathologic analysis. Accordingly, had a sensitivity 66%, specificity 99%, positive predictive value 98%, negative 87%. Tumor size (odds...
Bystander cardiopulmonary resuscitation (BCPR) is a significant factor in the chain of survival; however, various potential barriers are observed. We aimed to identify impact coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) pandemic on BCPR. This retrospective observational study used Daegu out-of-hospital cardiac arrest (OHCA) registry data patients aged over 18 years with etiology Daegu, Korea from February 17 2021. divided BCPR into self-led (SBCPR) and dispatcher-assisted (DACPR). To determine...
The aim of this study was to evaluate the short-term and long-term results surgical treatment for native valve endocarditis (NVE) investigate risk factors associated with mortality.Data including patients' characteristics, operative findings, postoperative results, survival indices were retrospectively obtained from Hallym University Sacred Heart Hospital.A total 29 patients underwent surgery NVE (affecting mitral in 20 aortic 9) between 2003 2017. During follow-up period (median, 46.9...
Interstitial cystitis (IC), often referred to in combination with painful bladder syndrome, is a chronic inflammatory disease of the bladder.Current therapies primarily focus on replenishing urothelial glycosaminoglycan (GAG) layer using GAG analogs and managing pain supportive therapies.However, elusive etiology IC lack animal models study have been major hurdles developing more effective therapeutics.Previously, we showed an increased urinary concentration antimicrobial peptide LL-37 spina...
Backgrounds: To investigate the pathophysiolosy of laryngopharyngeal reflux disease (LPRD), an experimental animal model is required. Therefore, we tried to make reflux, modifying Omura’s method. Methods: In first phase study, used method model, ligating forestomach through purse-string suture. modified group A, pyrolic stenosis was made with 20F nelaton catether after 2 mm cut it and ligated by B, Results: The survival rate 0% (0/36), A 24% (5/21), B 44% (8/18). Marked ulceration mild...
