Pathways from adverse childhood experiences to parenting competence: the roles of cognitive emotional regulation and social support

These findings suggest that strengthening adaptive CER may be particularly effective for mothers with higher levels of social support. For those with lower levels of social support, the first priority should be enhancing social support to lay the groundwork for emotional regulati...

Artificial intelligence-based thigh muscle volume profiling on CT in elderly East Asian patients with hip fracture

Background Skeletal muscle mass and quality are critical determinants of outcomes in hip fracture patients. However, most prior studies have relied on 2D cross-sectional area measurements, which may not accurately reflect the complex 3D muscle distribution. This study aimed to qu...

CAR-T Cell Therapy: Historical Development, Current Applications, and Future Perspectives

The major forms of cancer immunotherapy include checkpoint blockade, therapeutic antibodies, vaccines, oncolytic viruses, and adoptive cell therapy.Adoptive approaches are unusual because the administered product consists of viable immune cells that may expand after infusion and...

Fasting Duration and Differences Across Routine Laboratory Tests

Importance Fasting before blood collection is widely practiced to reduce preanalytical variability, yet whether fasting-related differences are clinically meaningful across a broad panel of routine analytes has not been systematically evaluated using clinical data. Objective To e...

A Retrospective Multicenter Study of Measles Seropositivity in Korea from 2014 to 2024

Background: Measles is a highly contagious viral disease requiring high herd immunity.Although the Republic of Korea has maintained measles elimination through national immunization programs, sporadic cases continue to occur.We evaluated age-and period-specific measles immunity l...

Age- and sex-specific patterns in the prevalence of metabolic syndrome components in the Republic of Korea, 2014–2023: a repeated cross-sectional study of national health screening statistics

Objectives: This study described 10-year trends in the prevalence of 5 metabolic syndrome (MetS) components and examined age- and sex-specific patterns in the Republic of Korea using aggregated national health screening statistics from 2014 to 2023. Methods: This repeated cross-s...

A compact, wireless fluorimeter system for continuous, real-time monitoring of tissue perfusion via in vivo fluorescence signals

In vivo fluorescence signals provide physiological and pathological insights for the interpretation of biological states associated with anatomical abnormalities or disease. Conventional methods for measuring fluorescence signals rely on bulky, costly instrumentation for imaging...

Conduction slowing and a focal scar are jointly required for sustained ventricular reentry in diabetic cardiomyopathy

knockout, not catheter ablation) in which diffuse fibrosis and connexin-43 remodeling were reduced tissue conductivity, patchy fibrosis discrete inexcitable elements, and a focal scar an inexcitable transmural wedge, with reentry tested by an S1-S2 protocol. Diabetic remodeling s...

Relative Cognitive–Motor Interference During Dual-Task Walking: Effects of Sex, Task Type, and Difficulty

Sex-related differences in task prioritization during dual-task (DT) walking have been reported in older adults; however, whether similar patterns exist in healthy young adults remains unclear. This study examined the effects of sex, task type, and difficulty on task prioritizati...

Fuzzy K-nearest neighbor for fine particles focusing on big data challenges and Introducing the GreenDeen concept towards pollution mitigation

Abstract Rapid urban expansion and economic activity in densely populated cities have significantly contributed to worsening air quality. Jakarta, Indonesia’s capital, frequently experiences PM 2.5 concentrations that exceed "unhealthy" levels, posing serious public health risks....

Tinnitus Practice Patterns in Korean University Hospitals: Findings from a 2025 Nationwide Survey and Comparison with 2013

Objectives.: A 2013 nationwide survey described tinnitus management in Korean university hospitals. Since then, conceptual frameworks have broadened, and new therapies have emerged. We aimed to investigate tinnitus practice patterns among Korean university hospital otologists in...

Effects of public hospital clerkship in rural and underserved areas in South Korea on medical students’ perceptions and career intentions: a pre–post study

PURPOSE: This study examined the short-term effects of a 2-week clinical clerkship program in rural and underserved public hospitals on medical students' perceptions of public healthcare and their intentions to work in non-metropolitan public hospital settings. METHODS: The Publi...

Toward AI-Assisted Precision Diagnostics in Breast Cancer: Source-Group-Preserving Evaluation of Class-Imbalance Strategies for Ordered ER-IHC Segmentation

Background/Objectives: Estrogen receptor immunohistochemistry (ER-IHC) exhibits heterogeneous staining and substantial class imbalance, complicating segmentation of ordered expression categories. We evaluated whether class weighting, minority-focused crop sampling, adaptive minor...

Cervical sagittal alignment differences according to scapular rotational posture

Scapular posture may influence cervical biomechanics because of the anatomical and functional linkage between the cervical spine and the scapulothoracic complex. Although abnormal scapular positioning has been associated with neck pain and altered muscle activity, radiographic ev...

A privacy-preserving federated learning approach with multilevel differential privacy for lung cancer detection

Lung cancer detection in medical imaging presents significant challenges, particularly in preserving patient data privacy while enabling collaborative learning across institutions. Federated Learning (FL) offers a solution by allowing multiple clients to collaboratively train a s...

Psychedelic-informed Therapeutics and Functional Decoupling: Toward Experience-independent Rapid-acting Antidepressants

Major depressive disorder remains a leading cause of global disability, and many patients show limited response to conventional antidepressants.Increasing evidence suggests that a substantial subgroup exhibits chronic low-grade inflammation, which may constrain synaptic plasticit...
