Tinnitus is a common condition and frequently can be annoying to affected individuals. We investigated the prevalence associated factors for tinnitus in South Korea using data from National Health Nutrition Examination Surveys (KNHANES) during 2009-2011.KNHANES cross-sectional survey of civilian, non-institutionalized population (n = 21 893). A field team that included an otolaryngologist moved with mobile examination unit performed interviews physical examinations.Among over 12 years age,...
Objectives The aims of this study were to evaluate the prevalence otolaryngologic diseases in Korea. Methods We obtained data from 2008 Korea National Health and Nutrition Examination Surveys (KNHANES), which cross-sectional surveys civilian, non-institutionalized population South (n=4,930). A field survey team that included an otolaryngologist, nurses, interviewers moved with a mobile examination unit performed interviews physical examinations. Results subjective hearing loss, tinnitus,...
Objectives/Hypothesis To evaluate clinical characteristics and possible associated factors of idiopathic sudden sensorineural hearing loss (ISSNHL) in children using univariate multivariate analyses.

We evaluated whether a thermosoftening treatment with warm saline of nasotracheal preformed tube can improve navigability through the nasal passageways and reduce epistaxis damage. A total 150 patients were randomly allocated to three groups: Group I (untreated group, n = 50), II (35°C treated III (45°C 50). In Groups III, tubes softened at 35 ± 2°C 45 saline, respectively. was prepared room temperature (25 2°C). The incidence damage in significantly less than that (P < 0.05). Despite more...

Abstract Objectives: To evaluate the usefulness of acoustic parameters as an indicator laryngopharyngeal reflux (LPR) treatment efficacy. Study Design: A prospective case series analysis. Materials and Methods: From January to September 2005, we prospectively analyzed 40 patients who were diagnosed with by 24‐hour ambulatory double‐probe pH monitoring. Laryngopharyngeal treated medically voice analysis was conducted three times: before treatment, 1 2 months after 3 4 treatment. Jitter,...
Abstract Objectives: Although many bacteriology studies on tonsillar diseases have been completed, all confined to children and were characterized by a paucity of cases. The purpose this study was analyze the underlying bacterial pathogens in disease. Methods: A retrospective performed 824 patients who underwent elective tonsillectomy with or without adenoidectomy. We analyzed differences between recurrent tonsillitis hypertrophy regard age, season, antibiotic sensitivity. Results: Among...
The primary aim of this study was to assess whether one can use levels nasal nitric oxide (nNO) and exhaled (eNO) as a means evaluation in allergic rhinitis.We used chemiluminescence analyzer measure nNO eNO normal controls (n=34) rhinitis patients (n=35), compared these measurements with various parameters clinical symptoms laboratory data.Mean (389±119 ppb) significantly higher than (276±88 ppb). Without asthma, mean (64.8±55.9 (33.0±24.0 In the persistent group, concentration higher,...
The development of molecular detection that allows rapid responses with high sensitivity and selectivity remains challenging. Herein, we demonstrate the strategy novel bio-nanotechnology to successfully fabricate high-performance dopamine (DA) biosensor using DA Receptor-containing uniform-particle-shaped Nanovesicles-immobilized Carboxylated poly(3,4-ethylenedioxythiophene) (CPEDOT) NTs (DRNCNs). molecules are commonly associated serious diseases, such as Parkinson's Alzheimer's diseases....
Although the excellent short-term cosmesis after robotic/endoscopic thyroidectomy has been reported, long-term cosmetic outcome is not yet known. The aim of this study was to evaluate thyroidectomy.We compared 147 patients who underwent robotic or endoscopic using a gasless unilateral axillo-breast (GUAB) approach axillary (GUA) with 161 conventional open patients. Subjective outcomes were evaluated series scar-specific questions as well Vancouver scar scale at 12-18 months surgery....
Budesonide nasal irrigation was introduced recently for postoperative management of patients with chronic rhinosinusitis. The safety and therapeutic effectiveness this procedure is becoming accepted by many physicians. objective study to evaluate the efficacy steroid in rhinosinusitis asthma.This prospective involved 12 polyps asthma who received oral treatment recurring or worsening disease. 22-item Sinonasal Outcomes Test (SNOT-22) Lund-Kennedy endoscopy scores were checked before...
The present study aimed to develop a machine learning network diagnose middle ear diseases with tympanic membrane images and identify its assistive role in the diagnostic process. medical records of subjects who underwent endoscopy tests were reviewed. From these records, 2272 membranes appropriately labeled as normal, otitis media effusion (OME), chronic (COM), or cholesteatoma used for training. We developed “ResNet18 + Shuffle” validated model performance. Seventy-one representative cases...
With the development of Korean economy, demand for high-quality beef, specifically Hanwoo is escalating, with marbling traits—measured by widely used score—being a key contributor to meat palatability. The differences between and lower-quality meat, according satisfaction customers, are not result from only degree but also delicacy flecks distribution. Using computer analysis technique, an index quantifying fineness 256 sirloin cuts at 12 th – 13 thoracic vertebra named F7 was developed in...
