Abstract Background and Aim: Differences in the prevalence of non‐alcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD) between Eastern Western populations are primarily attributable to differences definitions biased population selection. Thus, aim present study was accurately determine actual NAFLD by sonography characterize risk factors for NAFLD. Methods: The cross‐sectional performed with data obtained from 6648 subjects, all whom were older than 20 years age (3530 men 3118 women). term ‘non‐drinker’...
Although some studies have shown that the quantitative, immunochemical fecal occult blood test (FOBT) (qFIT) has better performance characteristics than standard guaiac-based FOBT (GT) for identifying advanced colorectal neoplasia (ACRN), there is limited information on of these tests in average-risk populations.Seven hundred seventy consecutive patients from four centers who were undergoing screening colonoscopy also provided stool samples. Stool specimens three bowel movements applied to a...
Background & AimsAlthough coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) is characterized by fever and respiratory symptoms, some patients have no or mild symptoms. Severe acute syndrome-coronavirus (SARS-CoV-2) has been detected in feces of patients. We investigated gastrointestinal symptoms shedding virus into with asymptomatic COVID-19.MethodsWe collected data from 46 (median age, 26 y; 46% men) COVID-19 (without pneumonia) prolonged SARS-CoV-2, quarantined April 4, 2020, through 24, Korea....
Although insulin resistance is often considered the link between obesity and non-alcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD), role of resistance, independent obesity, as a NAFLD risk factor in non-obese men has been less well established. Systemic inflammation may be accompanied by healthy subjects. The goal present study was to examine if systemic inflammatory markers are predictors men.The authors conducted cross-sectional survey 120 patients with 240 controls matched age body mass index....
The biosimilar of infliximab, CT-P13, has recently been shown to be equivalent infliximab in both efficacy and safety the treatment rheumatologic diseases. However, no data are available with respect drug's patients inflammatory bowel disease (IBD). We aimed assess CT-P13 IBD patientsThis was a retrospective multicenter study including anti-tumor necrosis factor (TNF) naïve who switched from biologic originator CT-P13.In anti-TNF Crohn's (CD) (n = 32), clinical response remission rates were...
Metabolic syndrome and insulin resistance are associated with a higher risk of colon cancer. Non-alcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD) is regarded as manifestation metabolic in the liver. This investigation was initiated to determine whether NAFLD has relationship colorectal adenomatous polyps.We examined 2917 participants who underwent routine colonoscopy at Kangbuk Samsung Hospital 2007. We divided subjects into polyp group (n = 556) normal 2361). Anthropometric measurements, biochemical...
Background/Aims Colonoscopic polypectomy is the best diagnostic and therapeutic tool to detect prevent colorectal neoplasms. However, previous studies have reported that 17% 28% of polyps are missed during colonoscopy. We investigated miss rate neoplastic factors associated with from quality-adjusted consecutive colonoscopies. Methods reviewed medical records patients who were found at a examination center Kangbuk Samsung Hospital between March 2012 February 2013. Patients referred single...
Background and study aim: Rectal carcinoids are low-grade malignancies that usually treated by endoscopic resection. However, on pathologic examination, resection margins positive for carcinoid cells frequently found. Patient outcomes were reviewed after of rectal the clinical significance possible residual disease, as defined was evaluated.
<b>Background and study aims:</b> Post-polypectomy coagulation syndrome (PPCS) is a well known complication of colonoscopic polypectomy. However, no previous studies have reported on the clinical outcomes or risk factors PPCS. The aim current was to analyze PPCS developing after <b>Patients methods:</b> Data for all patients who underwent polypectomies required hospitalization in nine university hospitals were analyzed retrospectively. incidence, clinicopathological characteristics, cases...
Objective: To evaluate the safety and efficacy of CT-P13 (Remsima®) in patients with inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) South Korea. Methods: This post-marketing study included active moderate-to-severe Crohn's (CD), fistulizing CD (FCD), or ulcerative colitis (UC) treated followed for 30 weeks. Assessments treatment-emergent adverse events (TEAEs) disease-specific clinical response remission. Results: No unexpected TEAEs were observed 173 recruited to date. occurred 18.1, 16.7, 26.9% CD, FCD,...
This phase II, randomised, double-blind, placebo-controlled clinical trial was designed to evaluate the efficacy and safety of PF-00547659, a fully human monoclonal antibody that binds mucosal addressin cell adhesion molecule (MAdCAM) selectively reduce lymphocyte homing intestinal tract, in patients with moderate-to-severe Crohn's disease (CD).Eligible adults were aged 18-75 years, active CD (Crohn's Disease Activity Index (CDAI) 220-450), history failure or intolerance antitumour necrosis...
Our study aimed to evaluate the therapeutic results of endoscopic N-butyl-2-cyanoacrylate injection (EBC) and balloon-occluded retrograde transvenous obliteration (BRTO) in patients with gastric variceal hemorrhage (GVH) and/or high-risk varices (GV).Twenty-seven GVH GV (>or= 5 mm diameter, those red spots, a Child-Pugh grading B or C liver cirrhosis) who were treated either EBC BRTO from April 2005 December 2007 included our study.EBC was initially used for treatment 14 13 patients,...

Although mucosal mast cell tryptase is known to significantly increase intestinal permeability, the relationship between cells and permeability remains unclear. The objective of this study was evaluate correlation among activity count.Rectal biopsies from 16 patients with diarrhea-predominant irritable bowel syndrome (IBS-D) 7 normal subjects were assessed for macromolecular using horseradish peroxidase in Ussing chambers. In addition, levels immunohistochemically quantified via image...
Recent studies have found that probiotics anti-Helicobacter pylori (HP) properties. We evaluated the additive effects of (i) Saccharomyces boulardii combined with proton pump inhibitor (PPI)-based triple therapy and (ii) S. a mucoprotective agent (DA-9601) coupled PPI-based for HP eradication.We recruited 991 infected patients randomized them into one three groups, (A) 7-day therapy, (B) same plus 4 weeks, (C) weeks. All in groups were tested via (13)C-urea breath test weeks after completion...
Colorectal cancer is the second most common in males and fourth females Korea. Since of colorectal occur through prolonged transformation adenomas into carcinomas, early detection removal are one effective methods to prevent cancer. Considering increasing incidence polyps Korea, it very important establish Korean guideline for screening polyp detection. Multi-Society Take Force developed guidelines with evidence-based methods. Parts statements drawn by systematic reviews meta-analyses....
