Objectives Despite the growing pieces of evidence linking hyperuricemia with metabolic syndrome and cardiovascular disease, relationship between dyslipidemia serum uric acid has not yet been established. This study aimed to investigate association individual components by using nationally representative Korea National Health Nutrition Examination Survey 2016–2017. Methods A total 8,722 participants (age ≥ 19 years) without missing values were analyzed for this study. Serum levels according...
Early identification of pneumonia is essential in patients with acute febrile respiratory illness (FRI). We evaluated the performance and added value a commercial deep learning (DL) algorithm detecting on chest radiographs (CRs) visiting emergency department (ED) FRI. This single-centre, retrospective study included 377 consecutive who visited ED resulting 387 CRs August 2018-January 2019. The DL detection was based area under receiver operating characteristics (AUROC) curves, sensitivity,...
The severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 is known to infect host cells by interacting with ACE2 (angiotensin-converting enzyme 2) expressed in the epithelium. There have been concerns on whether alterations of expression renin-angiotensin-aldosterone system (RAAS) inhibitors would contribute infectivity and severity disease 2019 (COVID-19). We performed a case-control study investigate association between RAAS risk COVID-19 infection South Korea using population-based data...
Summary Background The impact of continuing or stopping 5‐aminosalicylates (5‐ASA) after commencing anti‐tumour necrosis factor (anti‐TNF) therapy in patients with inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) remains unclear. Aims To compare the outcomes IBD who stopped continued 5‐ASA starting anti‐TNF therapy. Methods We analysed data from Korean National Health Insurance claims database between 2007 and 2020. compared clinical within 90 days initiation. primary outcome was any adverse event defined...
Rectal hyposensitivity (RH), as defined by the London Classification, has been linked to sensory dysfunction caused diabetes mellitus and Parkinson's disease (PD); however, its clinical interpretation not sufficiently validated. In this study, we aim explore correlations between rectal thresholds characteristics of patients with functional defecatory disorders. We reviewed data from who underwent high-resolution anorectal manometry acquired their using a standardized questionnaire. The...
Background Rituximab plus cyclophosphamide, vincristine, and prednisone (R-CVP) is one of the effective chemotherapeutic regimens for patients with advanced stage marginal zone lymphoma (MZL). However, prognostic factors that affect outcome treatment MZL are not well understood. Methods Between August 2006 June 2013, newly diagnosed III IV treated R-CVP as a first-line therapy from 15 institutions were retrospectively analyzed. Patients' clinical laboratory data at diagnosis collected by...
Background/Aims Since the onset of coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) pandemic, there have been concerns about association between exposure to renin-angiotensin-aldosterone system (RAAS) inhibitors and risk severity COVID-19. Methods We performed a case-control study that utilized up-to-date data on South Korean population provided by National Health Insurance System. Of 62,909 patients with hypertension or heart failure tested for COVID-19, were 1,644 (2.6%) confirmed cases. After...
Several studies reported that aspirin can potentially help prevent infection and serious complications of coronavirus disease (COVID-19), but no study has elucidated a definitive association between COVID-19. This aims to investigate the COVID-19.This case-control used demographic, clinical, health screening laboratory test data collected from National Health Insurance Service database. Patients who tested positive for severe acute respiratory syndrome 2 (SARS-CoV-2) until June 4, 2020, were...
Fecal calprotectin (FC) is commonly used to assess Crohn's disease (CD) activity. However, standardized cut-off values accounting for bowel resection history and location are lacking. In this study, we analyzed data from patients with CD who underwent magnetic resonance enterography, ileocolonoscopy, FC measurements January 2017 December 2018. 267 cases 254 patients, the levels in 'operated' were higher when was active compared those remission group (178 vs. 54.7 μg/g; p < 0.001), similar...
Background/Aims: We aimed to evaluate the histologic features predictive of prognosis and correlate them with endoscopic findings in patients ulcerative colitis (UC) having complete or partial mucosal healing (MH).Methods: prospectively collected reviewed data from UC who underwent colonoscopy sigmoidoscopy biopsy. Complete MH were defined as Mayo subscores (MESs) 0 1, respectively. Histologic variables, including Nancy index (NI), predicting disease progression (defined need for medication...
<sec> <title>BACKGROUND</title> Artificial intelligence (AI) and deep learning are revolutionizing the field of medicine, including gastroenterology.

While their effectiveness in United States Medical Licensing Examination has been evaluated, performance non-English tests, such as Korean (KMLE), remains underexplored. </sec> <title>OBJECTIVE</title> This study examined LLMs KMLE assessed explanation quality for...
Prokinetics are medications that enhance gastrointestinal contractility; they improve the symptoms of patients with delayed motility. have conventionally been used to stimulate propulsion and treat correlated motility problems, including gastroparesis constipation. 5-Hydroxytryptamine receptor 4 (5-HT4) agonists, such as cisapride, very effectively increased human tract However, cisapride sometimes induced serious tachyarrhythmia; drug was thus withdrawn from market. Thereafter, many...
