BackgroundPrevious studies have suggested that respiratory virus infections may be associated with new-onset asthma. However, whether coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) is an increased risk of asthma remains unclear.ObjectiveWe aimed to evaluate recent COVID-19 increases the and vaccination could mitigate this risk.MethodsWe constructed 3 different study designs using Korean National Health Insurance claim-based database: 1: COVID-19–diagnosed subjects (COVID-19 cohort) their matched...
Objectives Previous studies suggested that coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) could lead to pulmonary fibrosis, but the incidence of newly diagnosed interstitial lung (ILD) after COVID-19 is unclear. We aimed determine whether increases risk ILD and vaccination against can reduce this risk. Methods This retrospective cohort study used data from Korean National Health Insurance claim-based database. Two groups propensity score (PS)-matched control were constructed: Study 1: participants with...
Background Chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) is a risk factor for severe COVID-19. However, mortality after COVID-19 recovery in this population remains unclear. Methods We retrospectively enrolled individuals with COPD from the Korean National Health Insurance database. compared rate who recovered between 8 October 2020 and 31 December 2021 (COVID-19 cohort, n=2499) that 1:1 propensity score-matched controls (n=2499). The study was followed until either death or 30 September...
This cohort study examines the incidence, prevalence, and risk of alopecia areata after COVID-19.
Background: Breast cancer-related lymphedema (BCRL) is a secondary that occurs after breast cancer related treatments. BCRL develops from damage or dysfunction of the normally functioning lymphatic system due to surgery, radiation therapy and rarely recurrence. This nationwide, retrospective study was aimed at investigating incidence risk factors using database Korean National Health Insurance Service (NHIS). Methods: Patients with newly diagnosed who underwent surgery January 1, 2017...
Despite the importance of comorbid ischemic heart disease (IHD) in prognosis asthma, long-term impact coronavirus 2019 (COVID-19) on IHD adults with asthma remains unclear. This study investigated effects COVID-19 risk individuals particularly regarding severity. Using Korean National Health Insurance Service claims database, we identified who had recovered from between October 8, 2020, and December 31, 2021 (n = 8,011) 1:1 propensity score-matched controls 8,011). The incidence were...

Many recovering COVID-19 continue face long-term conditions, including persistent symptoms [2] and impaired pulmonary function [3]. Among these, post-COVID-19...
Purpose: The purpose of this study was to determine the risk herpesviral keratitis associated with 4 coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) vaccines approved in South Korea, using large-scale data from National Health Insurance Service. Methods: included 8,528,254 individuals, cohorts categorized based on COVID-19 vaccination status. Two investigations were conducted: first aimed assess new-onset while second focused relapse individuals a preexisting diagnosis. Propensity score matching used...
Background Several studies have investigated the relationship between ursodeoxycholic acid (UDCA) and COVID-19 infection. However, complex conflicting results generated confusion in application of these results. Objective We aimed to investigate whether association UDCA infection can also be demonstrated through analysis a large-scale cohort. Methods This retrospective study used local nationwide cohorts, namely, Jeonbuk National University Hospital into Observational Medical Outcomes...
As recent sporadic case reports of newly developed vitiligo after SARS-CoV-2 infection or vaccination have been -published, a convincing large-scale study addressing this association is warranted. To investigate the between and using Korean National Health Insurance Service database. SARS-CoV-2-positive patients those vaccinated against were recruited. In studies 1 2, control groups selected based on 1:1 propensity score matching with patients, respectively. The occurrence was main outcome....

Abstract COVID-19 vaccination is effective in preventing severe pneumonia and complications from COVID-19. However, several case reports have raised the possibility that interstitial lung disease (ILD) may occur as a side effect of vaccination. This study aims to compare incidence risk ILD subjects who were vaccinated for those not. A retrospective cohort was conducted using data Korean National Health Insurance Service database. During follow-up period 6 months, rate significantly lower...
