Hypertension can be detected at the primary health-care level and low-cost treatments effectively control hypertension. We aimed to measure prevalence of hypertension progress in its detection, treatment, from 1990 2019 for 200 countries territories.
The National Health Insurance Service-Health Screening Cohort (NHIS-HEALS) is a cohort of participants who participated in health screening programmes provided by the NHIS Republic Korea. constructed NHIS-HEALS database 2015. purpose this to offer relevant and useful data for researchers, especially field non-communicable diseases risk factors, policy-maker.To construct database, sample was first selected from 2002 2003 participants, were aged between 40 79 followed up through 2013. This...
To examine the relation between normal range of serum aminotransferase concentration and mortality from liver disease.Prospective cohort study.Korea Medical Insurance Corporation study with eight years' follow up.94,533 men 47,522 women aged 35-59 years.Mortality diseases according to death certificate.There was a positive association concentration, even within (35-40 IU/l), disease. Compared < 20 IU/l, adjusted relative risks for an aspartate 20-29 IU/l 30-39 were 2.5 (95% confidence...
The standardized techniques of blood pressure (BP) measurement in the clinic are emphasized and it is recommended to replace mercury sphygmomanometer by a non-mercury sphygmomanometer. Out-of-office BP using home monitoring (HBPM) or ambulatory (ABPM) even automated office (AOBP) correctly measure patient’s genuine BP. Hypertension (HTN) treatment should be individualized based on cardiovascular (CV) risk level Based recent clinical study data proving benefits intensive lowering high...
BackgroundCoronary artery calcium (CAC) score is a clinically validated marker of cardiovascular disease risk. We developed and novel risk stratification system based on deep-learning-predicted CAC from retinal photographs.MethodsWe used 216 152 photographs five datasets South Korea, Singapore, the UK to train validate algorithms. First, using one dataset Korean health-screening centre, we trained deep-learning algorithm predict probability presence (ie, score, RetiCAC). stratified RetiCAC...
Background: Little is known regarding health outcomes associated with isolated systolic hypertension (ISH), diastolic (IDH), or and (SDH) among young adults stage 1 hypertension, defined using the 2017 American College of Cardiology/American Heart Association blood pressure (BP) guideline. Methods: From a nationwide screening database, we included 6 424 090 participants, aged 20 to 39 years, who were not taking antihypertensive medication at baseline examination in 2003 2007. Participants...
Objective We explored clinical implications of the new definition metabolic dysfunction-associated steatotic liver disease (MASLD) by assessing its prevalence and associated cardiovascular (CVD) risk. Design From nationwide health screening data, we identified 9 775 066 adults aged 20–79 who underwent examination in 2009. Participants were categorised into four mutually exclusive groups: (1) MASLD; (2) MASLD with increased alcohol intake (MetALD); (3) other combined aetiology (the three...
The number of people with heart failure (HF) is increasing worldwide, and the social burden as HF has high mortality morbidity. We aimed to provide updated trends on epidemiology in Korea shape future measures against HF.
Abstract Background The Korea Hypertension Fact Sheet 2023, presented by the Korean Society of Hypertension, offers an overview prevalence and management hypertension, along with recent trends. Methods Data for were derived from National Health Nutrition Examination Survey spanning 1998 to 2021, Insurance Big 2002 2021. Results As hypertension affected 28.0% adults aged 20 older, totaling approximately 12.3 million individuals, 5.3 (43.5%) 65 or older. Among those awareness stood at 74.1%,...
This report provides an overview of hypertension prevalence, management, and trends in South Korea. The analysis is based on data from Korean adults aged 20 older, using the 1998-2022 Korea National Health Nutrition Examination Survey (KNHANES) 2002-2022 Insurance (NHI) Big Data. An estimated 30% (13 million) have hypertension, including 7.2 million men, 5.8 women, 65 or older. Overall awareness, treatment, control rates were 77%, 74%, 59%, respectively, showing a tendency to increase with...
The authors assessed the relationship between exposure to ambient particulate matter and suicide in urban settings during a 1-year period.The association was determined using time-stratified case-crossover approach which subjects served as their own controls. All cases (4,341) 2004 that occurred seven cities Republic of Korea were included. Hourly mean concentrations < or =10 microm aerodynamic diameter (at 106 sites cities) =2.5 13 one city) measured. percent increase risk associated with...
The objectives of this study were to develop a coronary heart disease (CHD) risk model among the Korean Heart Study (KHS) population and compare it with Framingham CHD score.A prospective cohort within national insurance system.18 health promotion centres nationwide between 1996 2001 in Korea.268 315 Koreans ages 30 74 years without at baseline.Non-fatal or fatal events 1997 2011. During an 11.6-year median follow-up, 2596 (1903 non-fatal 693 fatal) occurred cohort. optimal was created by...
OBJECTIVE This research investigated recent changes in the prevalence and management status of diabetes among Korean adults. RESEARCH DESIGN AND METHODS The Korea National Health Nutrition Examination Survey (KNHANES), a nationwide survey examining general health nutrition people, was conducted 1998, 2001, 2005. Using first (1998; n = 5,645), second (2001; 4,154), third (2005; 4,628) KNHANES datasets, present study, we estimated adults (aged ≥30 years), proportions known cases diabetes,...
Although not fully understood, sex may affect both the prevalence and control rate of hypertension. The present study was designed to investigate factors associated with hypertension among Korean adults. We analyzed 27,887 individuals (12,089 males 15,798 females) aged 30 years or older who participated in fifth (2010–2012) sixth (2013–2014) Korea National Health Nutrition Examination Survey. Multiple logistic regression models were applied delineate separately for men women. Overall, higher...
The Seventh Report of the Joint National Committee on Prevention, Detection, Evaluation and Treatment High Blood Pressure defined blood pressure (BP) levels 120 to 139/80 89 mm Hg as prehypertension those ≥ 140/90 hypertension. Hypertension can be divided into 3 categories, isolated diastolic (IDH; systolic BP <140 90 mmHg), (systolic 140 <90 systolic-diastolic hypertension mmHg). Although there is clear evidence that increase risks future vascular events, remains uncertainty about effects...
The application of deep learning to retinal photographs has yielded promising results in predicting age, sex, blood pressure, and haematological parameters. However, the broader applicability photograph-based for other systemic biomarkers generalisability this approach various populations remains unexplored.With use 236 257 from seven diverse Asian European cohorts (two health screening centres South Korea, Beijing Eye Study, three Singapore Epidemiology Diseases study, UK Biobank), we...
The Korea Hypertension Fact Sheet 2018 aims to overview the magnitude and management status of hypertension, their trends in Korea.The Epidemiology Research Group analyzed 1998-2016 National Health Nutrition Examination Survey data 2002-2016 Insurance Big Data.The population average systolic/diastolic blood pressure was 118/77 mmHg among Korean adults (age 30+) 2016, showing little change recent 10 years. However, number people with hypertension increased steadily, exceeding 11 million....
A noncommunicable disease (NCD) is a medical condition or that by definition non-infectious and non-transmissible among people. Currently, NCDs are the leading causes of death burden worldwide. The four main types NCDs, including cardiovascular disease, cancer, chronic lung diabetes, result in more than 30 million deaths annually. To reduce on global health, current public health actions stress importance preventing, detecting, correcting modifiable risk factors; controlling major factors...
