Data on drug-coated balloon (DCB) treatment in elderly patients are limited. This study was to evaluate the efficacy of DCB percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) among patients. A retrospective analysis included 232 aged 75 years or older with artery disease who underwent successful PCI using either alone combination drug-eluting stent (DES) based pre-dilation results (DCB-based PCI). These were compared 1818 second-generation DES implantation (DES-only The endpoint major adverse...
Data collected from 690 purebred Duroc pigs 2009 to 2012 were used estimate the heritability, and genetic phenotypic correlations between production meat quality traits. Variance components obtained through restricted maximum likelihood procedure using Wombat SAS version 9.0. Animals raised under same management in five different breeding farms. The average daily gain, loin muscle area (LMA), backfat thickness (BF), lean percent (LP) measured as Meat traits included pH, cooking loss,...
In this study, we investigated the effects of radish sprout ethanol extract (RSE) on inflammatory responses in macrophages and a mouse model colitis. RSE administration was found to effectively inhibit phosphorylation IκB and, turn, production pro-inflammatory enzymes cytokines lipopolysaccharide-stimulated macrophages. dextran sulfate sodium (DSS)-colitis mice, prevented body weight colon length reduction, while decreasing inflammation mucosal necrosis. The diversity fecal microbiota...
The aim of this study was to evaluate the efficacy scoring balloon angioplasty for drug-coated (DCB) treatment in percutaneous coronary intervention.The may play a pivotal role enhancing outcomes DCB treatment.A total 259 patients (278 lesions) with artery disease successfully treated were retrospectively enrolled. mean age 62.2 ± 11.1 years, and majority men (68.7%). study's endpoint defined as achieving an optimal angiographic result, which consisted Thrombolysis Myocardial Infarction...
Neointimal hyperplasia and its related arterial stiffness are the crucial pathophysiological features in atherosclerosis in-stent restenosis. Cluster of differentiation 147 (CD147), a member immunoglobulin super family that induces expression matrix metalloproteinase-9 (MMP-9) by dimerization, may play important roles neointimal therefore be an effective target for treatment this condition. Here, we investigated whether novel CD147 inhibitor SP-8356...
Moutan Cortex, the root bark of Paeonia suffruticosa ANDREWS in Ranunculaceae, has widely demonstrated analgesic, anti-spasmodic, and anti-inflammatory effects various cancer immune cell lines. Oxidative stress is associated with development several diseases, including liver disease. We prepared water extract Cortex (MCE) to investigate cytoprotective activities its mechanism. MCE protected hepatocytes from arachidonic acid (AA)+iron induced oxidative stress, as indicated by reactive oxygen...
Background: Amino acid metabolites (AAMs) have been linked to glucose homeostasis and type 2 diabetes (T2D). We investigated whether (1) baseline AAMs predict T2D remission 12 months after bariatric surgery (2) are superior for predicting postoperatively compared with existing prediction models. Methods: Among 24 participants undergoing surgery, 16 diabetes-related were quantified at postoperative 3 months. Existing models included the ABCD, DiaRem, IMS Results: Baseline...
The effect of subclinical leaflet thrombosis, characterised by hypoattenuated thickening (HALT), on the valve haemodynamic function and durability bioprosthetic valve, is not yet determined. We determined impact HALT haemodynamics after transcatheter aortic replacement (TAVR) predictors structural deterioration (SVD). Anticoagulation vs Dual Antiplatelet Therapy for Prevention Leaflet Thrombosis Cerebral Embolization Transcatheter Aortic Valve Replacement(ADAPT-TAVR) trial a multicenter,...
Background: Profiles of amino acid metabolites (AAMs) have been linked to obesity and energy homeostasis. We investigated whether baseline obesity-related AAMs were associated with weight status in the early postoperative period after sleeve gastrectomy. Methods: In this prospective, single-arm, longitudinal study, 27 bariatric patients underwent Twenty comprehensively quantified prior surgery, slow loss was defined as lowest 40% percentage excess (%EWL) at three six months postoperatively....
Abstract Antirrhinum majus (AM) has attracted attention as a rich source of phytochemicals, which are beneficial for human health. However, the anti‐inflammatory effects AM have not been studied scientifically. Therefore, we investigated antioxidative properties and extract (AME) in lipopolysaccharide (LPS)‐stimulated RAW 264.7 macrophages. AME showed high radical‐scavenging ability. Viability cells was significantly altered by at concentrations 0–300 µg/ml. LPS‐induced nitric oxide (NO)...
To analyze the outcomes of microsurgically treated jugular paragangliomas with control bleeding from inferior petrous sinus.Retrospective patient review.A single university hospital.Forty-three patients were diagnosed in past 7 years our clinic.Surgical tumor control, intraoperative blood loss, management facial nerve, and preoperative postoperative function lower central nerves.Twenty-six underwent microsurgical treatment. Eighteen tumors class C2 (69.2%), six C3 (23.1%), two CDe1 (7.7%)....
Abstract Background While there have been disagreements concerning whether obesity and increase in body weight elevate the risk of dementia, variability has recently recognized as a new biometric associated with high for number diseases. This nationwide, population‐based cohort study examined association between dementia. Methods A total 2,812,245 adults (mean age, 51.7 years; standard deviation, 8.6) without history dementia who underwent at least three health examinations 2005 2012...
Background and Objective: Investigations on the clinical impact of supraclavicular lymph node (SCN) involvement in stage IIIC non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) remain scarce. We evaluated oncological outcomes definitive radiochemotherapy significance SCN involvement. Materials Methods: Between November 2009 June 2019, a total 40 patients with N3-positivity NSCLC were evaluated. Most received concomitant chemotherapy, but six who radiotherapy (RT) alone also included. Twenty-one (52.5%)...
Peaches (Prunus persica L. Batsch) are one of the commonly consumed fruits.Depending on color flesh, peaches typically classified into white and yellow varieties.To identify differences in content functional components according to cultivar its parts, ascorbic acid, anthocyanin carotenoid were analyzed.The results showed that acid was higher peel than flesh there no significant difference between (P>0.05).Anthocyanin analysis cyanidin-3-glucoside both peaches.Cyanidin-3-rutinoside detected...
In the modern era of precision medicine, next-generation sequencing (NGS) is employed for a variety clinical purposes. The aim this study was to investigate trends and characteristics NGS testing in South Korea. This nationwide, population-based, retrospective cohort examined National Health Insurance Service claims data from 2017 2021 2008 gene-targeted anticancer drugs. Among total 98,748 claims, there were 51,407 (52.1%) solid cancer panels, 30,173 (30.5%) hereditary disease 17,168...
Cardiovascular disease is a condition of interest to clinicians around the world and one chief causes death. In Korea, cardiovascular second largest cause death following cancer, classified as four major diseases, making an early diagnosis essential for proper timely treatment. Although risk recognized in there lack quality studies regarding disease. present study, prediction model was developed which allows calculation among Korean patients. The using discriminant analysis based on data set...
Motor, perceptual, and cognitive functions are known to affect driving competence. Subcortical ischemic changes on brain magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) can reflect reduction in motor performance. However, few studies have reported the relationship between subcortical competence of elderly. Thus, objective this study was investigate association MRI abilities elderly.Participants (n=540) were drawn from a nationwide, multicenter, hospital-based, longitudinal cohort. Each participant...
Purpose External beam radiotherapy (EBRT) has been commonly applied as salvage or a combination locoregional modality after transarterial chemoembolization (TACE) for hepatocellular carcinomas (HCCs). This study reports oncologic outcomes and feasibility application of the two modalities in our center.Methods Forty consecutive patients who underwent EBRT due to incomplete responses TACE were evaluated. Fourteen (35.0%) received stereotactic body (SBRT) remaining conventionally fractionated...
