Background: Research on the optimal duration of immunosuppressive therapy (IST) and outcome upon its discontinuation in myelin oligodendrocyte glycoprotein antibody-associated disease (MOGAD) remains limited. Objective: To evaluate outcomes following IST MOGAD. Methods: This multicenter retrospective study collected data from 333 MOGAD patients Korea. Among 273 who received IST, 41 discontinued were analyzed. Results: The median age at onset was 38.3 years (interquartile range (IQR),...
Treatments for neuromyelitis optica spectrum disorder (NMOSD) such as eculizumab, ravulizumab, satralizumab, and inebilizumab have significantly advanced relapse prevention, but they remain expensive. Rituximab is an off-label yet popular alternative that offers a cost-effective solution, its real-world efficacy needs better quantification guiding the application of newer approved NMOSD treatments (ANTs). This study aimed to determine rituximab failure rates anticipate demand ANTs aid in...
In comparison with amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS), the contribution of neuroinflammation in spinobulbar muscular atrophy (SBMA) has been less explored. We investigated role pathogenesis ALS and SBMA by analyzing systemic inflammatory markers osteopontin (Spp1).
The establishment of an in vitro model for cutaneous T cell lymphomas and Sézary syndrome has been difficult since cells from individuals with these diseases do not proliferate response to mitogens. We found that conditioned media, collected mitogen-activated PBMC patients, contain IL-2 receptor inducing factor. Despite their ostensible proliferative disorder, using a combination cell-conditioned media rIL-2, we established responsive, human lymphotropic virus type I negative lines 23 nine...
Abstract Background and Aims The Inflammatory Rasch‐built Overall Disability Scale (I‐RODS) is an effective activity measure for use in inflammatory peripheral neuropathy. aim of this study was to validate the Korean version I‐RODS patients with chronic demyelinating polyneuropathy (CIDP), Guillain‐Barré syndrome (GBS), anti‐myelin‐associated glycoprotein (MAG) neuropathy, autoimmune nodopathy. Methods A total 120 underwent clinical evaluations, which included I‐RODS, Neuropathy Cause...
This study was conducted to evaluate the effect of fermented food waste (FFW) supplementation on growth, nutrient digestibility and pork quality growing pigs. A total 48 crossbred pigs were assigned four treatments in a randomized complete block (RCB) design. Treatments 1) Control (basal), 2) FFW 2% (basal+2%FFW), 3) 4% (basal+4%FFW) 4) 6% (basal+6%FFW). Diets formulated based corn-soybean meal products provided weaning, finishing periods. During whole experimental period, treatment groups...
Ictal swearing, as an epileptic manifestation, has rarely been reported. Despite its poor localization value and unclear mechanism, several previous studies have reported that it frequently originates from the temporal lobe more often non-dominant hemisphere. Herein, we report a case of 41-year-old right-handed man with history stereotypical manifestation ictal swearing left (dominant) hemisphere origin, confirmed by video electroencephalography monitoring. Reasonable suspicion repetitive...
Immune-mediated neuropathies are a heterogenous group of inflammatory peripheral nerve disorders. They can be classified according to the domain where autoimmune process begins: internode, paranode, or node. However, conventional diagnostic tools, electrodiagnosis (EDX), and autoantibody testing do not fully address this issue. In institutional cohort study, we investigated value dermal myelinated fiber analysis for target domain-based classification. Twenty-seven consecutive patients with...
The objective of this study was to assess the role 18 F-fluorodeoxyglucose positron emission tomography (FDG-PET) for characterization ovarian masses that were diagnosed as malignancies by magnetic resonance imaging (MRI). We performed a retrospective review eight patients with pathologically confirmed borderline tumors (BOT) who underwent MRI and FDG-PET before surgical staging from August 2005 March 2007. assessed PET BOT, measured FDG uptake quantified findings standardized value (SUV)....
