This article presents psychometric characteristics of the UCLA PTSD Reaction Index for DSM IV (PTSD‐RI) derived from a large sample children and adolescents ( N = 6,291) evaluated at National Child Traumatic Stress Network centers. Overall mean total PTSD‐RI score girls was significantly higher as compared with boys. Age‐related differences were found in that overall scores within sex groups among those aged 7–9 years 16–18 years. There no significant across racial/ethnic groups. The scale...
There is an increasing need to deliver effective mental health services refugee children and adolescents across the United States; however, evidence base needed guide design delivery of nascent. We investigated trauma history profiles, psychopathology, associated behavioral functional indicators among war‐affected presenting for psychological treatment. From National Child Traumatic Stress Network's Core Data Set, 60 were identified (51.7% males, mean age = 13.1 years, SD 4.13). Clinical...
McNemar’s test is often used in practice to compare the sensitivities and specificities for evaluation of two diagnostic tests. For correct accuracy, an intuitive recommendation diseased non-diseased groups separately so that can be compared among diseased, healthy group people. This paper provides a rigorous theoretical framework this argument study validity regardless conditional independence assumption. We derive statistic under null hypothesis considering both assumptions dependence....
Abstract Although previous studies have focused on hepatobiliary and gastrointestinal adverse drug reactions (ADRs) associated with COVID‐19 vaccines, literature such ADRs other vaccines is limited, particularly a global scale. Therefore, we aimed to investigate the burden of vaccine‐associated identify implicated in these occurrences. This study utilized data from World Health Organization (WHO) international pharmacovigilance database extract reports 1967 2023 (total = 131 255 418)....
Abstract Disproportionate impact of COVID-19 on socioeconomic and behavioral variables may have impacted the prevalence diabetes. We utilized nationwide long-term serial study from 2009 to 2021 Korea Community Health Survey (KCHS). explored national regional trends diabetes according factors before during pandemic. Also, we interpreted which groups became more vulnerable diagnosed A total 2,971,349 adults aged (19 39, 40 59, ≥ 60 years) were included in analysis. The increased slowly...
Abstract The scarce and conflicting data on vaccine‐associated facial paralysis limit our understanding of vaccine safety a global scale. Therefore, this study aims to evaluate the burden identify extent its association with individual vaccines, thereby contributing development more effective vaccination program. We used from 1967 2023 (total reports, n = 131 255 418 418) World Health Organization International Pharmacovigilance Database. Global reporting counts, reported odds ratios (ROR),...
To evaluate the potential association between suicidality and glucagon-like peptide-1 receptor agonists (GLP-1RAs), as well other medications used for obesity diabetes, using comprehensive global data.
Background Type 2 diabetes poses an increasing disease burden in South Korea. The development and management of type are closely related to lifestyle socioeconomic factors, which have undergone substantial changes over the past few decades, including during COVID-19 pandemic. Objective This study aimed investigate long-term trends prevalence, awareness, treatment, control. It also determine whether there were alterations pandemic these more pronounced within specific demographic groups....
For liquid crystal (LC) alignment, polyhedral oligomeric silsesquioxanes (POSS) can be considered as one of the promising candidates for formation vertical alignment (VA) LC. However, because their poor compatibility and weak interaction with LC hosts, pristine POSS are highly aggregate themselves in media create macroscopic particles, resulting severe light scatterings. To overcome this barrier, we proposed successfully synthesized cyanobiphenyl monosubstituted giant molecule (abbreviated...
The present study focused on identifying risk factors for early readmission of patients discharged from an urban community hospital. Retrospective chart reviews were conducted 207 consecutive inpatient psychiatric admissions that included who readmitted within 15 days, 3 to 6 months, and not admitted at least 12 months post-discharge. Findings indicated a diagnosis schizophrenia/schizoaffective disorder (OR = 18; 95% CI 2.70-117.7; p < 0.05), history alcohol abuse 9; 1.80-40.60; number...
The need to understand subjective health has increased during the COVID-19 pandemic, given its substantial impact on lifestyle habits and perceptions. Thus, this study aimed investigate trends association of with demographic behavioral factors, primarily focusing change when pandemic emerged. This used data from Korea Youth Risk Behavior Web-based Survey, comprising 1,190,468 adolescents aged 12–18 years (female, 48.49%). We investigated factors 2006 2023. A weighted linear regression...
Hypertension, a significant risk factor for global public health, is well-known to be preventable and manageable through physical activity (PA). However, many studies suggest that excessive PA may not provide additional benefits. Thus, we aimed conduct quantitative analysis of the relationship between hypertension levels. This study analyzed association using data from 2,429,588 South Korean adults aged 30 years older Community Health Survey conducted 2009 2022. We used weighted binary...
Background To address gaps in global understanding of cultural and social variations, this study used a high-performance machine learning (ML) model to predict adolescent substance use across three national datasets. Objective This aims develop generalizable predictive for using multinational datasets ML. Methods The the Korea Youth Risk Behavior Web-Based Survey (KYRBS) from South (n=1,098,641) train ML models. For external validation, we (YRBS) United States (n=2,511,916) Norwegian...
Deaths related to falls are a substantial public health problem worldwide, and insight into trends differences in global fall-related deaths can be valuable for identifying prevention strategies developing effective policies. Thus, we aimed estimate mortality rate forecast future deaths. In this time-series analysis modelling study, investigated temporal rates from 1990 2021 using the WHO Mortality Database, following GATHER guidelines, forecasted until 2040 across 59 high-income...
