Obesity increases the risks of diabetes, hypertension, and cardiovascular diseases, ultimately contributing to mortality. Korean Society for Study (KSSO) was established improve management obesity through research education; that end, Committee Clinical Practice Guidelines KSSO reviews systemic evidence using expert panels develop clinical guidelines. The practice guidelines were revised in 2018 National Health Insurance Service checkup data from 2006 2015. Following these guidelines, we...
The prevalence of obesity has rapidly increased in countries across the world recent decades. 2019 Obesity Fact Sheet released by Korean Society for Study addressed and abdominal during period 2009 to 2018 obesity-related social factors.Data from National Health Insurance Service health checkup database between Korea Nutrition Examination Survey 2010 2017 were analyzed. was calculated after standardizing age sex based on population housing census.From 2018, 35.7% 23.8%, respectively, 2018....
OBJECTIVE Previous studies have suggested that diabetes increases the risk of Parkinson disease (PD); however, this has not been conclusively established. We analyzed PD based on baseline glucose tolerance status in a large-scale cohort representative general Korean population. RESEARCH DESIGN AND METHODS This analysis was performed 15,168,021 adults aged ≥40 years who underwent health checkups under National Health Insurance Service between January 2009 and December 2010. The clinical...
We examined the prevalence of different obesity classes in South Korea based on 2020 Obesity Fact Sheet.Individuals ≥20 years who underwent a health examination provided by Korean National Health Insurance System between 2009 and 2018 were included class I, II, III was calculated for total sample age, sex, region subgroups.From to 2018, all increased across sex age groups regions. In study population as whole, 29.1%, 3.2%, 0.3% 32.5%, 5.2%, 0.81% respectively. Among young-aged individuals,...
This qualitative study explored digital technologies that promote educational experiences and achievements of culturally diverse learners via interviews with 46 linguistically students across different academic programs. A research design using semi-structured was used to collect the data for study. The analysis identified technologies, multimedia presentations, social network tools facilitate participants in asynchronous online learning environments. Participants applied navigate Learning...
AimsThis study aimed to examine the association of premature menopause and age at with risk heart failure (HF) atrial fibrillation (AF).

We analyzed the in vivo tumor regression activity of high molecular mass poly-gamma-glutamate (gamma-PGA) from Bacillus subtilis sups. chungkookjang. C57BL/6 mice were orally administered 10-, 100-, or 2000-kDa gamma-PGA beta-glucan (positive control), and antitumor immunity was examined. Our results revealed higher levels NK cell-mediated cytotoxicity IFN-gamma secretion treated with (2000 kDa) vs those lower (10 100 beta-glucan. then examined effect oral administration 10- on protection...
Waist circumference (WC) is an index of abdominal obesity and associated with co-morbidities mortality. Higher WC positively increased mortality; therefore, we examined the relationship between mortality in Korean populations interaction body mass (BMI) for mortality.A total 23,263,878 subjects (men = 11,813,850 women 11,450,028) who were older than 20 years underwent National Health Insurance Service health checkup included. was divided into six categories by 5 cm increments level 3 (85⁻90...
Many studies have reported conflicting evidence on the association between weight change and mortality. We investigated subsequent all-cause mortality, using a large-scale, population-based cohort from National Health Insurance System health checkup data 2005 2015. A total of 11,524,763 subjects older than age 20 years were included. Weight was measured every 2 over 4 divided into eight categories, loss ≥15% to gain ≥20%, for 5% change. The hazard ratios (HRs) 95% confidence intervals (CIs)...
Osteoporosis poses a great threat to the aging society. Hypochlorhydric or achlorhydric conditions are risk factors for osteoporosis. Atrophic gastritis also decreases gastric acid production; however, role of atrophic as related factor osteoporosis is unclear. We investigated relationship between and in postmenopausal women over 60 years age.A total 401 were included this cross-sectional study, which was conducted during their medical check-ups. Bone mineral densitometry measured using dual...
Waist circumference (WC) is a well-known obesity index that predicts cardiovascular disease (CVD). We studied the relationship between baseline WC and development of incident myocardial infarction (MI) ischemic stroke (IS) using nationwide population-based cohort, evaluated if its predictability better than body mass (BMI).Our study included 21,749,261 Koreans over 20 years age who underwent Korean National Health Screening 2009 2012. The occurrence MI or IS was investigated until end 2015...
With the Euro-Qol-5 dimension (EQ-5D) system, we investigated relationship between number of remaining teeth and QoL using data from Korean National Health Nutrition Examination Survey (KNHANES), 2010-2012. A total 17,417 participants, more than 19 years old, were finally included in this study (men = 7394 women 10,023). Through study, have discovered that affect overall health fewer them may indicate a lower quality life, as well. The life according to was assessed among Koreans system.The...
The global prevalence of obesity has increased steadily in recent years. Waist circumference (WC) reflects body composition better than mass index. Korean Society for the Study Obesity released 2018 Fact Sheet to address incidence obesity-related comorbidities according WC levels.Data from National Health Insurance Service health examination database 2009 2016 were analyzed. Abdominal was defined as a ≥90 cm men and ≥85 women. Incidence rates all-cause mortality calculated after...
Limited evidence exists regarding associations between obesity and kidney cancer among Asians. We examined the measures risk of cancer. included 23,313,046 adults who underwent health examinations provided by Korean National Health Insurance Service 2009–2012 performed multivariable Cox proportional hazards regression analyses. During 5.4 years follow-up, 18,036 cases were recorded, cumulative incidence was 0.12%. General abdominal associated with 1.32-fold increased compared groups without...
There is lack of data on effect modification by age the association between body mass index (BMI) or waist circumference (WC) and cardiovascular diseases (CVDs). We aimed to investigate impact BMI WC incident CVDs in individuals aged 40 66 years.
